The new Ford Freestar is not a great minivan, but it has a great fold-flat third-row seat and really good flip-forward middle-row captain's chairs. |

| 2008 2009 Toyota Tundra |
The 2008 2009 Toyota Tundra is available in a new four-door crew cab model for 2008 2009 called the Double Cab. The Double Cab features a deep, six-foot bed and brings Toyota closer to having a true full-size pickup: The Double Cab is three inches taller, four inches wider, and is built on a longer chassis than the other Tundra pickups. With the addition of the Double Cab, the Tundra is now available in regular cab, extended cab, and crew cab bodies. Though classified as full-size, the Tundra models are not as big as the Nissan Titan, Ford F-150, Dodge Ram, Chevrolet Silverado, and GMC Sierra models. Toyota makes up for this in other ways. The Tundra feels lighter on its feet, more agile and more refined than the domestic trucks. The Tundra is quick and responsive. And it's built to Toyota's high standard of quality, durability and reliability. 2008 2009 Toyota Tundra is available as a two-door Regular Cab, an extended Access Cab with auxiliary rear doors, and the new Double Cab. Two- and four-wheel-drive versions are offered, employing similar suspensions and bed heights. Three trim levels are available: base, SR5, and Limited. Access Cab buyers can choose a full-width or stepside bed. Two engines are available: The double-overhead-cam, 32-valve 4.7-liter V8 produces 240 horsepower and 315 foot-pounds of torque and comes with a four-speed automatic transmission. |

| 2008 2009 Toyota Tundra |
| The 2008 2009 Toyota Tundra is an attractive pickup, with a bold grille opening that extends down into the bumper. The heavy-looking chrome grille bars faintly suggest the 1947 GMC design, a model now popular with collectors. However, the Tundra's styling is bland compared to the Nissan Titan, Dodge Ram, or the new Ford F-150. The StepSide body is more svelte than macho. The Tundra Double Cab looks bigger and brawnier than the Regular Cab and Access Cab models. That's because it is bigger, not only longer in wheelbase, but over three inches taller and four inches wider as well. Around back, Double Cab models sport unique taillights. At 74.3 inches, the Double Cab's bed is less than a half-inch shorter than the Access Cab's. Access Cab models have four doors. The short rear doors are hinged at the rear and open opposite the front doors. As with other extended cabs, the doors on the Access Cab will bang into one another if you close the front door before closing the rear door. Fortunately, the inside of the rear door is padded, so this isn't a big problem. |

The 2008 2009 Toyota Tundra is a comfortable truck with a friendly interior. The Double Cab offers an inch more front headroom than the other models and slightly more hip room, but otherwise offers similar roominess to Regular Cab and Access Cab models. The Tundra's front-seat roominess is competitive with other full-size pickups. Toyota claims the Tundra provides more front legroom than any of the domestic pickups, though it's only about a half inch, and the Nissan Titan has a slight edge over all of them. The others, especially the F-150, offer more hip room than the Tundra. The 60/40 split-bench cloth seats that come in most models are welcoming and supportive. Double Cabs come with bucket seats up front, rather than the split bench. Climbing in is easy, though the two-wheel-drive model seems to sit higher off the ground than other two-wheel-drive pickups. The Tundra feels tall in the saddle, giving the driver a commanding view over shorter vehicles. |
