That is a nearly a ten year old test and the F150 tested was a 1995 design while the Tundra was designed 5 years later. Like most newer vehicles, the
2010 F150 did far better than the older models.Ed

You are welcome to your Jap crap. Some of us here in the U.S. have not forgotten how Japan sucker-punched us in Pearl Harbor and what their conduct was like during the war. (In some ways they were even more vicious than the damned Krauts.)

So which country / race / religion has completely clean hands? Before you condem the Japanese of today for the things done nearly 70 years ago, you might consider how Native Americans, Africans imported as slaves, Phillipinos, etc., etc., feel about the actions of the decendents of white immigrants to North America.

Yes, and then Mc Arthur created the new Japan after the surrender. A US citizen.
And I seriously doubt you were alive during Vietnam or even the *first* gulf war, much less WWII.

Modern Japan - as I'm sure you know - was the last great act of McArthur before he went off the deep end and has nothing to do with the feudal society which proceeded it.
Pearl Harbour was far more a case of a bad case of ignoring readily available intelligence than any great strategic move by the Japanese. No one could call it the later - it was a strike of pure desperation.

You can probably pass my 1941 Chrysler, as it only has a six and 24K original miles. It will outlast you I expect. You probably can't pass my
1991 Chrysler New Yorker 5th Avenue, with only 80K miles. Both of them are in excellent original shape and are well built.- Vote on answer

The Jap crap Mr. Blake is referring to is the Lexus. The Hyundai would be more properly be called Gook crap. However, the reality is that my Hyundai is made in Alabama by rednecks and colored folks. My other car is a Jap crap Toyota Camary which is pretty good but not so much when compared to my Gook crap Hyundai. Personally, I wish I could afford a Kraut crap BMW or a Lexus.

When you come out of your cave and see what has happened in the last 30 years, you might notice that there is almost no difference in design, content and quality between U.S. and japanese cars. I'd worry more about the percentage of chinese crap the car is made out of than the home address on the company's stock report.

conspiracy theories are conspiracy theories. however, big picture, you have to wonder at the logic of being attacked by imperial japan, then declaring war on nazi germany.
