Description of the problem	In march 2010, i purchased a new toyota tundra 2010 crewmax 5. 7l truck fully loaded with navigation system, remote start, and guidepoint (lojack like) system from expressway toyota in dorchester, ma. The truck was supposedly manufactured in february 2010 and had the revised gas pedal. On march 23, the incident below occurred. Was driving to work from reading, ma to charlestown, ma (about 13 miles) on tuesday, march 23. It was a rainy day and traffic was heavy. I had the defroster and wipers on and was stuck in traffic on a busy main street about 10 miles into the trip. The car in front of me started to move forward slowly so i took my foot off the brake to also move forward slowly. That other car was about 10 feet in front of me. I barely touched the gas pedal when the truck took off at full acceleration. I got on the brake as heavy as i could and the truck fish tailed side to side. I quickly put it into neutral and then park while the truck was still revving at full acceleration. While it was in park and engine still going full speed i tapped the gas pedal with my foot and it released. I was very lucky i didn't crash into anything. I did smell a burning odor once i got the truck under control. I'm not sure if that was the tires, brake pads or something else.
