A little more revealing than the last couple.  Can't figure out the front bumper (or lack thereof) though. :blink:

Looks like a bloated ridgy.

It looks lifted, that would explain the lacking front bumper.  Maybe for offroad testing judging by the background.  

It looks like it took steroids :wacko:  :blink:

To me it looks like they beefed up the rest of the truck and glued the old front end on....it doesnt fit with the rest of the truck :wacko:

I still hope the cab extension is just part of the disguise. And, it looks like it is just missing the lower part of the bumper (which will probably be actual metal compared to body colored plastic for the upper part).

He doesn't know for sure, he is just saying that the porportions of the front clip look like they belong to the rest of the body of the current Tundra, not the much larger body of the new truck.

Hey now, I wasn't involved in this one until I ended it. It's only FOL and Rag that are always at each other's throats.

It looks very odd without a lower front bumper, but you can see stuff behind where it would be, so I have no doubt that they just didn't put it on this test vehicle. They may make something ugly, but they wouldn't make something that had visually exposed drivetrain parts (from the front).

Visually exposed drivtrains are 'manlier'. :lol:
