The Tundra standard cab weighs 5000 pounds with a full tank of gas and an XXL person at the wheel. I believe the extra cab weighs more.

The V6 makes 190 HP and my calculator says that is 26.3 pounds per horsepower.

That is just about the same as the T100 (4000lb/150hp=26.6), I would say the performance would be identical.
I have a Tundra, std. cab, V8, auto, 4wd and couldn't be happier. It is the first truck I have ever owned with either a V8 or an automatic transmission.

I traded in a Tacoma, 150hp/5speed and the performance difference is startling. Even at 4800 feet above sea level, my Tundra will accelerate up hills with a 7000 pound load. And it still gets 18 mpg around town where my Tacoma got 19 or 20.

Take a test drive and see what you think. The numbers say if your want better performance than your T100 you will have to get the 32 valve V8 and it only comes with an automatic tranny.
