2025 Toyota Tundra Shortage?

[@bettysmith4527]

I think the low interest rate Toyota is offering is probably helping to clear the lots of Tundras!! Happy Birthday Erwin!! It's my Bday tomorrow, turning 25 again!! 😂 CONGRATS ON THE EXPECTED BABY!!! Highlander is AWESOME you will love it!!

[@TundraDude34]

Happy birthday!

[@hardmtnbiker]

Happy birthday Erwin, buy a new Tundra!

[@waynehenson1094]

Beautiful 1794, but im switching to a Nissan Frontier Pro 4X. I refuse to pay Tundra prices. My 07 Tundra was recently totaled while parked unfortunately.

[@TundraDude34]

Enjoy! I like the Frontier!

[@tomglpn]

Probably don't have enough engines

[@ednorton47]

Can you pre-order an engine washed of metal shavings before it is assembled?

[@STARFIGHT88]

Nope....just do an overnight oil change and filter the first week after ya buy...then use amsoil

[@Cincithebest513]

Lol, you clowns can joke Toyota all you want for having one major recall that only 1% of 100 thousand vehicles were affected but it’ll never change the fact that Ford Chevy and trash Dodge has always been complete trash and always will. So people like me will sit back and watch Toyota sales go out the roof like they do every single year and I’ll drive my Trd pro more American made than any one of the big three. I’ll leave on this note. I feel very very prideful driving a truck that’s made and assembled here in United States and over 70% of its parts are also made in United States unlike Ford Chevy Dodge which 30 to 40% at the most are made here in the US and have the worst warranty in the industry. They probably order sheen parts to slap on those shit boxes. You clowns are no longer Americans driving those fake American trucks. GTFOH

[@mg-ke3ji]

Still better than all the other manufacturers

[@platinumman21]

I have to agree about the pricing. Just bought my Tundra a week ago. I was going to lease it, but the lease was nearly the same as buying it. I wound up just buying it and got 2.99% for about $10 cheaper a month.

[@Richard-b5w6o]

My local dealer in Scranton has about 20 tundras mostly sr5’s one platinum and one trd pro coming in I love my 2024 1794

[@TundraDude34]

Ahh yes, I do enjoy my walks at Scranton. They always line their trucks up like its the military, everything in order! 😁

[@johnswierczynski3899]

Thanks for the quick reply. We don’t really have many tundras on our lot here at Erie I think three or four of them when I looked blast.

[@TheRealBeckOutdoors]

Congrats on expanding been watching for quite a while We are 24 TRD offroad sr5

[@davidglover3380]

If discounts come they need to be at least 20%. If you run the numbers on buying a new Tundra then running KBB on the value it drops about 20% to 25%. That is why I'm saying at least 20%...

[@KamalaTheClown]

Yep. I was at about 20% off my 2025. Walked out the dealership with a 25 TRD off road Premium with heated seats and running board for 55k OTD

[@JJJ5.7]

I suspect change over from 2024 to 2025 slowed factory down a bit. Lots were full full a month ago.

[@eliteexposure5594]

Here in MN there arent many Tundras either.

[@LookingBackAdventures]

Thanks for all you do on this channel. Great information as I am looking at possibly purchasing a new Tundra and knew very little about them. I have only owned some Toyota cars and GM trucks. Thanks so much! PLENTY of Tundras on the lots in Wisconsin! I guess no one wants to shop with the -28 degree wind chill 😄

[@TundraDude34]

Coldddddd temps out there! I’m very glad my channel can be of service. Always happy to help

[@edwardrumick2311]

That SR5 looks great like that

[@bwill-j2g]

Love my 2024 Tundra. Had a couple issues that Toyota resolved with the panoramic roof. I wish Toyota gave me the option for a Limited with the off road package early in 2024. Progress I guess. I will be going to Yotagarage for the mods. Keep up,the videos. We watch down here in Texas.

That’s a great SR5 with the TRD Lift , Pro Grill and loaded. I love it when dealerships order SR5 Tundra and Tacomas then load them up. Congrats on the baby and I completely understand the sticker, payment shock with new cars and trucks. I’ve actually just been considering a fleet Tacoma that is just a stripped SR long bed with a manual transmission. My payments would be half or less than my dream Tundra. As for lease v/s finance is not renting, it’s a way to pay off 1/2 the vehicle and have an option to buy or get another vehicle. Depends on the dealership and the financing/lender. I have had great experiences leasing and bought my car after and received additional money from manufacturer financing. I’ve turned in leases and turned it into a new lease at a same payment for a newer car. The best way I ever bought was getting 1.9% interest on a new car.

[@bwer2]

Best one by far is the TRD Rally! 🙌🏻

[@telemarktumalo6978]

Good Morning, Mark and TundraDude34 family. Great dealer walk today. I cannot put my finger on why, but I'm not a fan of the Rally package. I think mostly the grill tape looks a bit busy.

[@TundraDude34]

I think a different grille would make a HUGE difference for me. That plain SR5 grille is not my favorite

[@alittlebitofdirt]

do you have power running boards on this and also power step at the tailgate?

[@andysalguero8138]

I bought a ‘25 platinum TRD off road on Dec 29th. As I was negotiating and talking to the sales manager he said they were going not have many Tundras moving forward because Toyota were allocating engines to the recall and not building many new ones. Part of me thought it was just sales tactic but might be some truth in it.

[@TundraDude34]

Could be! I can only officially go off of what my own eyes see, and im seeing way less than this time last year.

[@javieraguirre5777]

Go, Joe Gibbs Racing this year with the Toyota Camrys and Tundras. I look forward to watching the Racing on local channels and dreaming of driving a 3rd generation Tundra while passing them in my 2005 Sequoia! It still drives like a Cadillac...

[@geraldgagne8443]

Thank You for your videos. You have been a great help in deciding on which Tundra to get for my wife and I. How come Toyota removed the HUD and 360 camera view from The TRD Pro? I had my local dealer send a link of their TRD in transit and didn’t see it on the options. I asked about if those options were on the truck and it turns out that those are no longer options for 2025. Total Bummer, I guess I will look out for a used one. Have you heard if this is a permanent change or if it is only temporarily not available

[@TundraDude34]

Hi there! HUD was never available on TRD Pro. Thats an option on 1794, Platinum and standard on Capstone. And the 2025 TRD Pro does have the 360 camera still, its called Multi Terrain Monitor 👍🏼

[@geraldgagne8443]

Thank You for the quick response. Is the multi terrain monitor the same as the birds eye view? That is a must have for the wife. Thank You again

[@TundraDude34]

Thanks Man, That clears things up the differences. I will look for PVM and MTM. Im not sure why he thought it wasn’t available on the 2025 TRD Pro. I will keep looking. Thanks again

Where are all the I Force Max engines I have not yet seen one and I am in Erie PA

[@TundraDude34]

Around you, Conicelli has 2, Thompson has 1. Del might have a few as well. They came out a bit later this year

[@lukehill5478]

The 1794 come with nice floor mats but I don't like the carpet so I purchased the the rubber Tundra floor mats and very happy with them.

[@johnyota131]

The plant is SATX is prioritizing the engine recall. With that being said, you will see less Tundras on the lots this year. 2025 sales will drop significantly over 2024.

[@TundraDude34]

Another important reason to make the sales videos every month!

[@pragmatic4624]

I drove through Wisconsins highest volume Toyota dealer’s lot today. I saw 2 lonely tundras……. Both lower trim. Lots of Tacoma’s though!!!

[@MichaelAllen-td1uu]

A lease is safe way to be a vehicle. When you get to near the end of your lease you have options buy,sell or trade. If the market is strong you may have equity or if it’s weak turn it in. Remember on a lease you’re financing the depreciation of the vehicle.

Would you happen to know the height of a Tundra with the 3-inch lift, including the height of the shark fin? I'm trying to see if one would fit in my garage with 84 inches of clearance, and no one seems to be able to answer that question in the forums.

[@ronsteitz4535]

I really believe Toyota Tundra has too many 2024 Tundras for sale yet. They are now slowing down assembly of 2025 until Inventory balances out🤔 Dealerships in Iowa are sitting on way too many Tundras and Tacomas at this time. I like you have been watching the lots weekly and I’m seeing the same vehicles week after week.😒

[@TundraDude34]

I took the liberty of conducting a nationwide search to see how many NEW 2024 half tons are still on the lot in the US. This is as per auto trader: Ford F150: 64,963 Chevy Silverado 1500: 7,876 Ram 1500: 1,887 Nissan Titan: 1,138 Toyota Tundra: 1,478

[@stevenwescott1422]

Northeastern us has plenty. Loads of them.

[@TundraDude34]

Where at?

[@Anonymous-sy2nh]

Consumer Reports now has the F-150 rated #1. Sad. Hopefully the Tundra ratings are lagging due to 22-24 engine failures. The Honda CRV turbo was like that - poor ratings and then back on top a few years later once Honda figured out the cold weather issues. Toyota, you are now on year 3. Hopefully no 2025 issues.

[@bowhunter182]

It is of my opinion that Toyota is doing this to bring pricing back up. Also,I have heard they are moving manufacturing of the tundra to Mexico... Have you heard this?

[@TundraDude34]

The Tundra is not leaving San Antonio. They moved Taco to Mexico to make more room for both vehicles. The Tundra isn’t moving
