When was last major "all new, completely redesigned" F-150 and Tundra and Tacoma?

[Eastern Roamer]

Some redesigns are game-changers, though. The 09 Ram with the cargo and small gear storage innovations along with coil spring rear suspension was. The 2011 Ford engine update was. My expectations are low for the next Silverado. I hope I'm surprised.

The redesigns go in a cycle, Chevy should be releasing their redesigned Silverado in the next year or two.

According to MotorTrend, brand new Chevy Colorado and GM Canyon come out sometime mid 2014.

The Colorado seems like it really would give Tacoma a run for its money. Tacoma is due for an upgrade (if "due" means not since 2006)

The current F150 design actually dates back to 2004. Tundra dates back to 2007 and Tacoma...well I think that is 2005? The Ford is the oldest design, but I think it has the most modern look and definitely more up to date with electronic features.

"Japanese automaker Toyota will reportedly drop the regular cab version out of its Tacoma lineup as of 2015, when the third-generation pickup truck is set to arrive."

That is incorrect about the Ford F-150

Ford revealed the next generation 2009 F-150 design at Detroit's North American International Auto Show in January, 2008. Production of the series began in October 2008 at Ford's Kansas City Assembly Plant.[SIZE=2][2][/SIZE] The truck features a larger and more flexible interior, an updated three-bar grille, and additional choices of cab styles and trim levels. The chassis includes lighter-weight, high-strength steel for better fuel economy and safety and improved payload and towing capacity.

The 2009 Ford F-150 featured front-seat side impact airbags and Ford's Safety Canopy System for the first and second rows as head protection in the event of a side impact. It also featured Ford's exclusive ADVANCETRAC RSC (Roll Stability Control)--an electronic Stability control and anti-rollover safety feature also available in other Ford vehicles, from the Fusion to the Expedition. The manual transmission option was dropped in 2009, which was the last year when the Flareside box was available, and the last year when the 17" wheels for the FX4 trim level.


For the 2011 model year, an all-new engine lineup was offered. Two of the engines, a 3.7 L V6 and a 5.0 L V8, both based on the 2011 Ford Mustang engines, both offer E85 flex-fuel capability. The 6.2 L V8 used in the 2011 Ford Super Duty was made available with the F-150 Platinum, Lariat, SVT Raptor, and Harley Davidson editions.

Finally, the 3.5 L direct-injected twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 was offered in the F-150 starting in early 2011. All engines were paired with a new six-speed automatic transmission (6R80).Electric power-assisted steering was made available on all engines besides the 6.2. Since 2008, the Ford F-150 has towing and hauling capacity of 11,300 lbs and 3,060 lbs, respectively.

Toyota would have to build the new tundra that has a better tow/haul rating get better fuel economy and has mall the electronic and luxury features as well as be one rugged off-road work truck when need be and sell it for the same price or less then Dodge GM and Ford if they want to stay in the 1/2 ton truck market

It still has the same basic platform as the 2004. Just like the Super Duty is on the same platform still as the 1999.
