2020 Tundra TRD Pro
Specs:
5.7L v8
381hp
401 lbft
6 speed auto
MPG: 13 city 17 hwy and 14 combined
Towing 9200 lb
This color is the grey metallic paint and while it looks mean, I had to wait till the ARMY GREEN color came in to include it in this video because THAT color is by far my favorite.
So starting off on the outside you do get a lot of extra bits standard because this is a TRD. In terms of the front, this has not 1 but 2 HOOD VENTS and I mean it hurts twice as much to say these are not functional. But this isn’t unusual for Toyotas TRD models. I like the Toyota heritage badging touch and the front grill suits this truck really well. A key highlight on the front is the factory integrated ridged industry fog lights which are really bright and pair up nicely with the lead headlights. Lastly, you do have the quart inch thick front skid plate and you do have the option of adding a skid plate under the fuel tank
Going on to the side I have to highlight these BBS Forged rims which is AMAZING to see on this tundra, these are high-quality rims and I think the looks also suit this truck really well. You have the blacked out 5.7l v8 badge telling you this a special truck but the real kicker is the large TRD PRO stamped panel which matches the tundra stamping on the tailgate. but before we get to the rear I do want to give you guys a peep under th wheel well to take in the glory of the FOX shocks! This is why you buy the trd pro! These dampers are position sensitive and have amazing damping technology to ensure you are in control when off road. I really wish I could test these out for myself someday.
the rear is probably the most straight forward part with the 3 piece rear bumper and the blacked-out badging as well as all your tow accessory inputs. You also have your dual blacked out tipped trd exhaust system which sounds great as you will hear in the cold start in a bit.
Going in side this truck you have a TON of room. The trd embossed leather seats are supple and comfortable but not as luxurious as the 1794 edition but that’s not the point of this truck.
One quirk I noticed was how the front seats on this car do not have grab handles to help getting in and while this doesn’t have a step and because I'm short, it did make it difficult to get in. but for some reason, they have it on the rear seats which I cannot explain.
The interior is mostly standard Tacoma but you do have your 4wd selector which ill talk about more in the drive. New for 2020 is the 8inch entune system with apple car play and android auto and its hooked up to the 12 speaker jbl system. The gauge cluster is easy to read and you have a multi information display in the middle.
The center consol which has the trd logo has a huge opening but I wish I saw more compartments to organize things instead of just a huge opening. Overall, though the fit and finish hear is great with the leather panels and read accented stitching.
In terms of safety I think this is the only car that hasn’t received the full Toyota sense 2.0 suite but it does come with all the safety sense 1.0 equipment with precollision, dynamic cruise control, auto high beams, Blind spot monitoring, and lane departure.
Other than that there is a sunroof and the rear seats have tons of legroom as well as vents. But that’s prtty much it.

I do plan to do more tundra coverage in the future as this is one of many trims that are offered so please sound off in the comments section what you would like to see next. With that said lets start it up and take it on a drive.

TRD Pro does not come with blind spot monitoring via 4:50 as FYI.

[@PushingPistons]

Wow you are right I completely misquoted the spec sheet. Thank you for pointing this out! It is offered on other trims which is why I had mentioned it. This is actually disappointing

[@lanceinmypants143]

My 18 SR5 TRD Sport has it. Makes no sense.

[@toxicmongoose7061]

@@lanceinmypants143 I agree with you. that being said, the trd sport is an option on a SR5 trim level. where the TRD PRO is a trim level.

[@supdus]

in canada my 2019 trd pro has blind spot monitoring

[@elijaheffron7065]

I WILL have my Toyota Tundra TRD very soon. 🙏🏽

[@nooopenoway4071]

Ford,ram,chevy,gmc,all crap. Your a fool if you buy anything but Toyota!

[@EverydayJ1786]

Not only the TRD , all Tundras are Pro in longterm quality and reliability . That's what makes it stand out from the other half tons in the segment . All the lack of "tech" means nothing . People buy these trucks because they can truely depend on them for years and years .

[@PushingPistons]

That’s a fair way to look at it

[@okankaradag3693]

better don't have a wreck, it has the worst crash rating and how its considered as reliable...

[@joelgosselin3549]

@Jason Creech you sound like a pure idiot. Nobody buys a truck or a car based on crash review.

[@troylayton8572]

@Jason Creech you should buy a domestic truck, they never have any issues 🤣🤣🤣

[@PS987654321PS]

@Supercreech IIHS disagrees with you. It gets a 4 out of 5 overall.

[@DoubleAAFamily]

Could you imagine a truck that had the tech of the Dodge Ram ecodiesel 1500 but was as reliable and had the longevity of the tundra..... my goodness gracious!

[@troylayton8572]

Dealer lost their mind. Buy them on the east coast for 4k under msrp.

[@jameskolb4825]

Hope 2021 brings technology and amenities up to par with competitors GMC and Ford.

[@jbravo70]

Nope. 3rd Gen will be in 2022. You’ll have to wait one more year like me😢

[@joshtweed9042]

Best truck ever

[@miken8336]

There is a big stock grab handle on the drivers side, it's called the steering wheel!

[@lrcreamer]

Why did toyota delete the aux external transmission oil cooler in 2019 and 2020 when they had it installed previous.Owners are saying temperatures get too high when towing. If I bought one I would would for sure upgrade back to having the aux external trans cooler. It is a great truck that they created this weak point for a great truck that all I can determine is to cut costs

[@nightfall22]

This deserves a like because I grew up in C-Arson and it made me smile to see my city. Great review. I love the tundra and plan on picking one up at the end of the year. Also to be honest I love the tundra as is...my only 2 complaints is give the pro ventilated seats like the platinum and 1794 and a heated steering wheel would be awesome. Other than that I think the interior looks very nice. Ah, maybe a third gripe would be offer more colors... quicksand, red and cement would be nice on the 2020’s!

[@PushingPistons]

Thanks so much! I’m really glad you enjoyed this and think those added options would definitely make this truck a lot better.

[@brado647]

The 2020 Toyota TRD Pro does come with factory blind spot monitoring here in Canada. Great review

[@PushingPistons]

Oh that’s interesting! I honestly can’t explain why this is the case. Thanks for the positive feedback!

[@nickp8373]

$10,000 markup from this dealer? Anyone buying a vehicle from that dealer should have their head examined. At least here in the Northeast you pay sticker for a TRD Pro.

[@303MoTo]

No kidding. I got my PRO for under sticker. Less than $53k. You could take the fam on a quick vacation, buy the truck and drive it back home and still save money. Who pays these markups??

[@willisg6878]

I’m currently looking at one that’s marked at 54k , planning on getting it this month

[@motouser1850]

What dealer?

[@sengx]

67k!? I mean, I know its Cali but most TRD Pros in the midwest are 55K.

[@cliffsilverman8344]

Yes it is

[@TheVaquero00]

My wife and I, will be buying a new vehicle soon to better accommodate our growing family, and so that we can go and enjoy the great outdoors. The Tundra TRD is definitely top in our list, but the gas mileage on it is horrible. Only thing that makes me think twice about owning one.

[@James-yi1vk]

Don't buy the TRD pro. Buy a lightly used SR5 crewmax with the six seat option. it's always nice to have the sixth seat! If you don't need it just fold it down for drinks to whatever. You're going to love how wide the truck is. The crewmax is like a freaking cave back there. The MPG is horrible but dude it's a truck. Keep your maintenance up to date and it will last you several hundred thousand miles. Remember that there is a reason why dealers can't keep these things on the lot.

[@TheVaquero00]

@@James-yi1vk I appreciate the feedback, James. The 6th seat makes more sense. I feel like the center of the crewmax has a lot of wasted space.

[@Ryan-ue9ve]

I'm pretty sure the slit vent just above the grille is functional while the hood one isn't.

[@tehallanaz]

Possible I could swear when I was truck shopping they were both fake. I ended up with the army green 4 runner which definitely has fake scoop weep womp

[@Ryan-ue9ve]

@@tehallanaz I stand corrected, you are right. I could have sworn when I changed mine out that it had an opening.

Nice job!

[@tacocruiser4238]

If I was getting the Tundra, I would go for the long bed and tow package. The off-road package is overrated because it doesn't even have a rear locker.

[@joelgosselin3549]

Even without the rear locker, it did outperform a trail boss with a diff lock. Can you explain me that?

Hi, beautiful Toyota Tundra I lucky to own 2019 and I love it. Can you please make a video on 2020 Toyota 4Runner TRD
