$50K SR5 Tundra VS $53K TRD Pro Tundra! Which Would You Buy??

[@snafumagu]

Resale value, TRD Pro...mic drop.

[@TRDJon]

BOOOOOM

[@leenestle]

Exactly. Check out untamed motors channel for specifics but he put 5k miles on his trd tundra and broke even after some slight mods. Also when talking about a $50k truck, if $3k is a deal breaker for you, you need to look at less expensive options.

[@jaredr2518]

Exactly!

SR5 tundra is for work. Platinum is for your retired grandpa who need assistance changing lanes. TRD Pro is for fun and luxury. Change my mind

No need to, I agree💪🏽

[@sharepa1]

I have a 2020 TRD PRO and I highly recommend you get that truck.

[@BlancoFlaco]

TRD pro hands down, the fox shock suspension makes it sit even and the ride is much better IMO especially for NYC off road pot holes 🕳!

Totally agree. Off road pot holes hahahah

[@TRDJon]

Truly the last of it's kind

[@rotorwind177]

Pro wins hands down if not paying a markup! Resell value is way better as well

[@shanefarley3575]

I opted for the 21 Platinum. I loved the pro, price was the same as my platinum but could not look past the creature comforts I would give up going to the pro vs the platinum. The quilted high quality leather seats, ventilated seats, parking and rear cross traffic alert and power folding mirrors. Another feature i think I just observed in this video is the center gauge cluster display was black and white in the pro? It’s color display in my platinum. Lots of little things but overall both great trucks. The final thing that really sold my on platinum vs pro. I wanted windchill Pearl. Love the color.

[@TRDJon]

Such a great color!

[@le6014]

WOW... that is exactly my Tundra SR5 TRD ...!!! Same packages, parking sensors etc, and just a little under 50k (I got it for 47k). At the time, the TRD Prod at my dealership was well over 55k. Not an option. Still I just customized it a little bit more (Fuel Assault Rims, Fender Flares, TRD Sport Predator Edition Decals among others) I only miss the sunroof but other than that, everything is perfect. Excellent comparison.. Thank you both...!!!

[@mrDmastr19]

I did a platinum and the dealer put on TRD: dual exhaust, front skid plate, rear sway bar, shift knob. Backflip tonneau, predator steps and BFG off road tires, and the black tundra letter on tailgate, spray in bed liner. Granted Msrp was 63- but it’s pretty awesome to say the least.

[@joseperezpaz9986]

Love my 20 Trd Pro Tundra!! If Sport came with Leather from Factory it would be a better contender

[@boughtandpaidforautoreview1150]

Pro. Upgrade tires. Done

[@cre8ive34]

Trd Sport here in Magnetic Grey. I prefer the sport and for a few thousand in after market add ons you can basically have a superior vehicle to the Pro just miss out on the bed stamped logo, if that is even considered a loss.

Jon i got to tell you I'm going with the SR5 4X4 on this. You got room to add more features and do your own upgrades. I'm going with Jeff on this one.

[@TRDJon]

Great choice man

[@Blackpanther_risen]

Me, I'd go w/ the Limited. I don't do any crazy offroad advantures or go flying my new truck in back countries so the Limited is a better fit for me. Both the TRD Pro and SR5 don't have the interior features I like, however, I do like the all color matched of the SR5 tho

[@michaelramirez2706]

I must have had this debate in my head a million times before I bought, I even put it down on paper. PRO, limited Nightshade, and sport with upgrade packages. Good video for someone in the market.

[@TRDJon]

Thanks man!! We appreciate that!

[@kennyowens4180]

Cool video, Pro wins with the bed stamp alone! And if your gonna do a truck review clean it before!!!!

[@ryanbishop7327]

I would take the pro all day but I am actively looking for a TRD pro in lunar rock and can’t find one within 500 miles of me in Southern California for MSRP. Even the ones that are advertised at msrp when I call they tell me that is msrp but it’s not for sale for msrp. That said with rebates and discounts on the TRD sport that don’t apply to the pro the price gap gets wider. But the pro is a freaking awesome truck

[@karlosnoriega2032]

You won’t get a break on the pros for sure. I deal with it on a daily. 🙏🏽

[@boughtandpaidforautoreview1150]

@@karlosnoriega2032 keep looking and negotiate. I got $2000 off msrp on my lunar rock CM order. Bedliner was the only option so I was $53,244 with destination. I’m guessing I could sell it pretty easily for more than I paid. Dealer had 0 up charge and free delivery to Laredo TX from Louisiana. The kicker is that I’m getting more for my 2020 SR5 than I paid new last March.

[@kassab1981]

I have the 2021 trd pro lunar rock is an amazing truck love it paid 56k

[@willseeadventures]

If I were to go tundra, I would only go with a Platinum because it has many more features such as leather heated/ventilated seats... Like my other Toyotas, the stock suspension would be replaced with adjustable coil overs and deaver rear leafs, and I would add the TRD exhaust and TRD pro wheels!

[@latinbeandip]

Exactly what I did and I love it. Just wish they came in cement!!

[@svrblk777]

That’s why i’m happy with my 2021 Trail Edition with all the safety BSM, RCTA and BSM features which I think is a must for such a full size truck. TRD Pro Canada trim version I think is the most top of the line premium TRD Pro edition.😊

[@TacoRob]

This was a great idea 💡, I love the lunar rock it’s my second favorite color behind my cement gray number one on my 2020 Tacoma those two colors look awesome with black out. Not a fan of that sr5 with all that chrome. I put a aftermarket heritage grill with color matched lettering kn mine and it’s a game changer coming from a standard grill with chrome ring around it.

[@alexbyrd7209]

Automatic running board on TRD pro is very cool

[@jgbecker24]

I paid 40k for a new SR5 double cab- the TRD was about 10k more, so I'll be doing my own suspension upgrades.

[@RacerJuan42]

For only $3k more TRD Pro , easy call

[@raymonddurkin]

No one sells them for 53k, fake news. Go find a link, I'll wait... forever.

[@miken8336]

Sounds like the Platinum is the answer, all the great features, no hood scoop, which only allows you to not see further where your front bumper is. Need PRO capabilities , spend some $ on shocks and you are there.

[@chriscrawford3809]

I’d say Sport for me but if the Pro came with all the 4Runner off-road gadgets and a rear locker that would tip the scales for me. I’m in Florida I got to have the ventilation in the seats! I haven’t seen a TRD Pro until $58k near me and the dealers will not even negotiate the price!.

[@TRDJon]

Yep! It is true, at the end of the day after dealer fees and all else, those pros can get pretty up there in price.

[@Gpaiva24]

For a 3k difference you get the Pro. But realistically, the dealership will take off a couple grand off the Sport, the Pro they don’t budge. The Markup for my 2019 Sport was $48k. I walked away paying only $42k brand new. Have the same TRD Sport as Jeff. Love my truck. The TRD Sport Tundra and maybe the Limited are the best value for the Tundra. By far.

Why in the world does Toyota omit parking sensors and blind spot monitor from the TRD Pro? Makes no sense. I'd love to have a TRD Pro, but I'd probably prefer a Limited Nightshade to get those features.

You mean $65,000 for a SR5 and $70,000 for the Pro. Every dealer I've talked to boosted their prices by $10-$15,000 for the 2021's. Neither of the two. Get the Limited Crewmax with TRD Off-Road. You get a mixture of the two.

Great Collab! Nicely done!

(Welcome back to 1977!) With the Lack of true off-road features in the TRD Pro, Toyota just made a better "toy" than a more capable off-roader.

You walk into the dealer and you say, i want the top trim. You take the "TRD Pro" home to find out that's it's missing a list of important "add on" features. Bad reputation to Toyota for being conservative. This is what happen when they let others build their brand and sell it the way they want. This would've never happen when they were made in Japan and shipped over in a handful of trims.

[@manuelvasquez6903]

Nice job

[@elmeracobamamaril5653]

Stunning beast tundra

[@White_buffalo_4r]

I feel like the skid plate feature was missed with the PRO, and the general stance with the Pro being more level due to the front coils being different. I will say that for the price you very well could take the SR5 with some factory upgrades and then adding in your own could come out with more truck for about the same price. Real issue on that comes down to money out of pocket as opposed to financing a truck that is already a good build start.

[@TRDJon]

The suspension and lif was talked about, giving it two more inches over other models.

SR5 and build up the suspension, wheels, tires, etc...nothing special about the TRD Pro and the Fox shocks spec’ed for the Pro. The shocks are inferior compared to the buying aftermarket 2.5” or bigger Fox, Kings, Icon, and/or ADS Racing Shocks.

[@TRDJon]

Pro would take the cake if it had more off road features agreed.

[@boughtandpaidforautoreview1150]

I agree James, and it’s a great idea to build up your own SR5 if you plan to keep it long term. Most tundra owners do. If you trade every 3-4 then the pro will be the smarter choice. Dealers don’t care how much you paid for the aftermarket Icon suspension. Not sure how selling a modded pickup outright would do but my guess is that people lose a massive amount of the money spent to upgrade.

[@Mill72]

@@boughtandpaidforautoreview1150 Yes.... selling your vehicle or trade in you go into it losing any mods $$$$. Either part it out and put stock stuff back on if kepted, and sell mods to recoup. Most Raptor owners rip thier stock suspension out for better, let alone a TDR Pro suspension.
