For the First Time in person. The Grill looks hideous in my opinion. Is this suppose to be attractive? I see the Asian Heritage. It kinda reminds me a Charlie Chan's Fu Man Chu Mustache.

I'm all up for making fun of the Tundra, it is indeed a hideous truck.

But I definitely was not expecting to see a picture of an old-school actor in yellowface on this forum, in 2022, comparing it to "Asian Heritage" as a joke. I know you meant zero harm, but as an Asian man myself, I can tell you that the joke comes across a bit ignorant & insensitive in this day and age. I'm not sure if you have many asian friends (I surmise that you don't), but I can tell you that your comparison of a Japanese truck, to Fu Man Chu, as being asian heritage is not relevant nor funny.

Toyota's bug eyed headlight stuck out begging to get hit seems like a strange idea.

I actually thought they didn’t look too bad in print….thinking it might actually look better in person….and then I seen one, even worse than print. I can’t see how anyone could look at that truck and think it is so much better looking than a Ford, Ram or Chevy.

Yea my neighbor traded his F150 for one. Looks hideous. Like they took a Silverado and F150 from the lot straight to their design room, told them to take as much as they can and turn it up five notches

The pugface Tacoma was the worst now this

I would get the previous generation. Would buy a Ford first though

The Ram definitely has had a bad pug face as well.

Isn't the fu man chu an American thing that we did to Chinese men I'm the movies? Not really a catch all for the asian culture.

My neighbors had one for over a month now. I’ve been giving it a chance and time to grow on me like most things do but it’s not! All I think of when I see it is the Transformers and why So much plastic. Rear is just as bad as the front. It’s hideous.

I do question just how smart he is to begin with though. He’s been driving around with a snow blower in his bed for over a week now and it’s 96 out!
