@Bobbo Morgan your Chevys were still better than Fords of that gen. Ford had plenty major defects in Powerstroke 6.0 and 6.4 and the V8 gas with sensor, cam and other issues. Chevy had some real shitty brakes till 2006. Did you ever see Fords Neutral switch shift linkage problem from 50s to 80s ? was common issue for many years , if you left it running it would drop into reverse and Ghost rider emerged :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3fOlnqGZ92fo68

Thank you. I love how these guys don’t hate on Toyota and aren’t biased and they appreciate the purpose and simplicity of a vehicle like the 4Runner and the TRD Pro lineup in general. I feel the same exact way. Something about the design and simplicity of the 4Runner tundra and Tacoma I just gravitate towards and even though I own a 4runner I would 1000 percent choose one of those three in the Toyota TRD Pro lineup over any other suv or truck with the newest updates and tech. Don’t like too much cluster and all these fancy buttons and infotainment systems. I just like something simple that will run and last forever and have great resale value in case for the future to just have that piece of mind. The fact that their ford ranger review there were malfunctions during the review just says it all on my opinion on all that new tech. Nothing wrong with it but just not my cup of tea.

ZEROKOOL-20 Don’t get a Tundra if you’re concerned about MPG lol. They’re literally the WORST. And if you live in the countryside, get a truck that comes with a rear locker (the Tundra doesn’t). Go with an F150 or Silverado.

Glad you guys were able to review a truck doing "truck stuff". Or, really, what people use trucks for 90% of the time. I do like the simplicity of this one, as opposed to the other 3 packing in the features that will eventually just break, or confuse. This has 3 hvac dials. Perfect, dead easy.

[@TheKagedd]

You know, I felt the same way about the most of Toyota’s lineup in Q1 2018. Toyota tends to make one design that they know will age well and make minor changes to it as time goes on. They did the same with the previous gen Corolla and Rav4 as well as the current Tacoma, Tundra, and Highlander. It’s like they design a “one-size fits all” vehicle per segment and let it ride. Tundras still sell well for the company and honestly. At the end of the day, while the Tundra is old - they didn’t have as many technology scandals/failures as the other companies. Also, they don’t sell in volume like the F150. The F150 sells so well partly because Ford keeps it’s updated knowing that they get their money back and then some. Toyota can’t Garuntee that with the Tundra.

Traded in my '14 Sierra Denali for the TRD Pro. After barely dodging a $6k repair that was covered under warranty (broken rocker) and fixing multiple other known issues (air conditioning, vacuum pump, broken stupid vibrating seat, heated seats stopped working, wheel corroded and wouldn't hold air, started leaking water at the headliner over the drivers seat)... it was time for a new truck. Simple was the name of the game and the TRD Pro was perfect for my needs. Strong resale, super comfortable ride, utilitarian interior, reliable, sounds great and I added heated seats for $400 from a local shop that work fantastic. This was all after owning my GMC, driving a 5.0 F-150 XLT for a week while it was in the shop (very nice but a little bland). It might not be the truck for everyone, but it fit the bill for me and I love it. Yuri and Jacob do a great job, thanks for all the entertainment and great info!!

I have an 08, built here in the greatest state ever, lifted on 35s, and it sees a minimum of 10 miles of off road every single day since it does double work as a daily around the ranch and town as well as weekly trips to Houston. It’s stupid easy to swap the display to get CarPlay and such, it also gives all readings and can show you what error code is happening for check engine, maintenance ect. It can also adjust the speedo for different size tires. It has over 300k miles and hasn’t needed any major maintenance except for a new radiator (tire flew up from the road and cracked it) Needless to say its an amazing truck and I would definitely recommend it

There is now 2 tundras that turned over a million miles. No other GAS truck can say that!

Yeah what other gas truck has done this? None!

[@michaeltom402]

Same motor and same transmission too

[@danr3545]

You’re wrong. Might wanna’ research that one, bud.

[@Barobran92]

Having leather seats and no leather wrapped steering wheel would drive me crazy, kinda like the way Yuri says Toyota lol.

[@joshtavenner3073]

The Pro needs heated seats (in the US), leather wrapped wheel and blind zone alert. Those are the main items that would keep me out of one in favor of just a Limited trim.

[@marcbergeron3569]

Just bought one in the US, the dealer can add heated seat afterward. Bummer you have the pay for it but it is doable. Same goes for remote start. All done by the Toyota dealer.

I love the look of this truck. While the 2015-17 F150 looked better, the tundra will always be my choice.

[@cbinwindsor]

A friend of mine was a ram power train engineer at FCA and I can tell you that this truck was bench-marked and is an absolute tank. If I wanted reliability in a half ton truck that was under load often this would be it. That being said, as a truck owner who is not beating on it daily, I prefer the ride and interior of my ram. Honestly if they left the truck part alone and redid the interior like a Ram this might be the best all around truck.

[@vincentlee9638]

I literally went truck shopping today and test drove f150 ram1500 and the tundra. Tundra does drive a bit wobbly and the interior is no doubt dated, however everything you need is still present. Nice looking truck!

[@vincentlee9638]

@Jack Z Lariat cost more unless during employee pricing, i configured a f150 base lariat and the price is over 65k cad. And if I look at tundra trd sport I still get all options I want yet it costs under 55k.

#toyota reliability!

[@jayfxdx]

Outdated tech, terrible fuel mileage and the famous Toyota reliability is something of times long ago! Which means this truck is a terrible value and outclassed by all of the Big 3s offerings.

[@Ram-xr5uj]

Yet Toyota fanboys still defend this truck...

[@anthonymolina7416]

It’s got a higher resell value than the big 3

[@jayfxdx]

@@anthonymolina7416 doesn't matter if the truck just isn't as good. My buddies who traded them off on Fords and Chevs loved the resale value, made it easy to justify dumping them.

Man I've been saving up for a Frontier because I really like the simplicity and size of it. But I'm really torn between the Tacoma and Tundra since I plan on keeping my next vehicle for 9+ years and they're like the jack of all trades of trucks.

[@davidporowski9512]

Love That Blue Color, Too!! Definitely on my Bucket List when I hit Lottery !!

[@ryanhie2829]

That voodoo blue and blacked out grill is very nice looking, indeed. This truck is old, but is aging well. It actually got a mild refreshening to the interior/exterior in 2014, but has been basically the same truck since 2007. I'm fine with the lower hoodscoop, but that one pasted on the top of the hood is ridiculous. The powertrain in these Tundras are proven and reliable, unlike the new tech that the other manufacturers are trying. I like the Ram Rebel better in terms of looks and interior features, but if I was paying my own money for a truck I wanted to keep, I'd get the TOYota. I look forward to TOYota eventually revealing their next generation Tundra and the subsequent Straight Pipes review.

[@coryernewein]

Just bought an 08 crewmax TRD Offroad with 270,000km. Still feels solid as hell and it gets the same L/100km as my brother in laws 2018 Ram sport. I can drive smooth and get around 12-13 L/100km...but I am just chilling at speed and not passing anyone lol I waited until just the right one showed up online and pounced on it for $11,950 CAD with a 2yr unlimited km warranty. Never been happier with any vehicle!!!

[@G_Gued]

I own a 2017 Toyota TRD Pro after owning a 2013 F-150 Lariat FX4. No looking back. I’ll only ever own Toyota trucks from here on out. Everything about it is better. Sure it doesn’t have all the tech my F-150 had, but it’s less stuff to break. I’m floored with its performance and resale value. Super pumped.

[@toddbob55]

My dad has new F-150 and my buddy has the Tundra.... I Personally like the F-150 especially the interior and over-all to me The F-150 is just a better a truck They tend to stick around too they are great trucks.

[@danr3545]

Great point!

The slow charging of your phone could be from the cable. Different cables charge faster and slower and usb cable don't charge Pixels as fast as the usb-c in and out cables.

[@cl20999]

You're absolutely right about the cables, but in this case it's definitely the port in truck. I've charged my phone with the same USB-C cable in this exact truck many times and it takes literally almost twice as long as it does in my Jeep.

[@Fahhad2]

you will never know the value of this truck until you own one for a long time. Solid , reliable , smooth ride , simple and easy truck. Works year after year and has a great resale value. What else a man can ask?

[@stackthatartpaper]

TRD PRO: The trim you NEED when you live in the suburbs and help your neighbor take his old lazy boy to the dump once a year. SR5 RWD: The trim you NEED when you are hopping city medians, driving on shitty gravel roads, and hauling a fuckton of tools and junk

[@fabianherrmann6398]

Like the color a lot. It is different but not flashy, perfect for a truck like that. I would have no use for that kind of vehicle, but it'be so gangsta to ride around in one like for a couple days renting out a logde out in the forest or something, hauling firewood you chopped yourself. That is what comes to my mind watching this. Anyway, great videography again, nice details and composition.

[@martyfield694]

I had a Toyota SR5 pickup for 15 years and it was great, loved it. I am really liking my '19 Ram Rebel and couldn't see me trading it for a TRD pro. If I'm going to have this truck for the next 10-15 years I certainly want the multitude of features it has compared to the Toyota. Saying that I hope in 10-15 years I will be happy with the reliability and durability of this truck. Time will tell.

[@williamreinhardt2774]

It always strikes me as odd that when its any manufacturer other than a Toyota, a simple and basic interior is not good enough and referred to as boring and under developed. However, when its a toyota its the best feature ever that it was designed 15 years ago and is grossly outdated.

@@AndesF34 I like the Tundra but it's not as good as an F150 bar none.. it's just not. It has an older powertrain, older transmission, heavier chassis, etc. When you're going to be towing those things make a big difference. My last 2 F150s have been insanely reliable for 300k each and that's with towing boats and trailers, so the Tundra doesnt even have the point over the F150 from the reliability standpoint from my experience at least.

Coming from a 2005 Sequoia I really wanted to buy this truck. You can’t question Toyota quality, but this truck is primitive as the gas mileage is horrible. I ended up purchasing a Raptor. Once Toyota refreshes this I will look again. I know it will go 300k with no problems, but it’s 2019 and this truck belongs in a museum.
