Under the hood, there's an 8.0 liter inline six-cylinder turbodiesel Hino commercial truck engine. A healthy five-speed manual transmission and a Hino DRW rear end get the power to the ground and boost this stretched Tundra's capacity. 22.5-inch wheels are provided by Alcoa.
Toyota didn't release specifications, but the Tundra's fifth-wheel hitch is rated at 24,000 pounds. No word on if such a truck is a serious consideration for production, or if it's just truck-guy chest-thumping.

The SEMA Auto Show just passed and Toyota showed us a couple of trucks that make people wonder if Toyota is making the smartest choice by building something that today isn't really selling all that well
Another huge truck that made a debut at SEMA was the Toyota Tundra Diesel Dually. This truck resembles the dinosaur age as it's bulky, huge, and full of power. Everything about the Diesel Dually says big, from its 488 cubic inch engine and 22.5-inch wheels to its impressive 12-ton towing capacity.
What do you think of this truck? Will it be a fierce competitor to Ford and its F-Series?
