|
| The Tundra was restyled to look more aggressive than the previous generation and almost takes some styling cues from the Dodge Ram with its trapezoidal grill. The Silverado takes a shape more similar to the Ford F-150 with rectangular shapes. The Tundra has a little more going for it as the Silverado can look rather plain. Its neither soft nor aggressive but just very rectangular. | ||
 |
 |
|
| The rectangular shape of the Silverado can be seen from all angles and has a very wide and flat front end. The Tundra incorporates a more rounded front end that gives it a more aerodynamic look. | ||
 |
 |
|
| The biggest flaw on the Tundra can be found in the taillights. Toyota tried to give it a different look but the lights don't look right for a truck. The Silverado with large fender flares and a more traditional taillight design matches better for its overall design than the Tundra's rear does for its design cues. | ||

| NOTES |
| The Silverado is one of the top selling vehicles every year. The Tundra is the only true truck (Honda Ridgeline doesn't count) from a non-American automaker (the Nissan Titan is based on the Dodge Ram). |
