So, depending on the outcome in November, the current economy may take a sharp trend in another direction.

So, with their business model "on track" why would Toyota risk the expense and potential loss to engineer and produce a HD truck, especially with the recent failure of the Nissan attempt to "break into the market"????

I don't see any "serious Toyota competition" in the HD market at least for the next several years, if ever. With all of their past experience in the truck market for many, many years. I'd suspect they'll stay out of the competition. They seem to have "found their niche" with the compact truck line and the full size half ton line.
