Off-Road Desert Torture Test! // 2020 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro

[@watthesnacks]

In 2014 Toyota ran a TRD Pro in the Stock Full Class at the Baja 1000 and finished in 35:40. 2 years later, Ford ran a raptor in the Stock Full Class and finished in 35:59.

[@Dantheman1342]

I've been a Tundra owner since 2001, went from a 2001 extended cab,to a Crewmax TRD Rock Warrior in 2011. Needless to say,I love my Tundras!

[@maxxq874]

I like how you get nerdy about all things mechanical and your sense of humor is the dessert! Thank you Sarah.

[@mackman1480]

The advantage of buying any Toyota model mid way that has a long interval between a total redesign is that most of the bugs have been addressed and you end up with a battle tested car or truck. I have a 2015 Tundra SR5 double cab with the TRD off road package and so far with 5 central Canadian winters and 100 000 km's or 60 000 miles and have had no breakdowns or vehicle failures only oil changes and regular service. No vehicle is perfect but I expect to get many more trouble free miles and years of ownership.

[@jordonstreet935]

I love how you think outside the box... Always. In upgrading and in your reviews. Your creativity is influential and addictive. Keep it as original as you Are :) Backwards uphill in 4-wheel drive. Not a common scenario, but reveals all types of daily capabilities.. love it.. these are the things I really want to know. Keep it up missus tuned..🤙

[@imJGott]

(i work in the plant, so yes, i build these trucks) 1:39 all the tundras have that chip tape and deck protector. the only ones that dont get the chip tape are the ones that have side steps aka running boards. 4:35 i wish i could comment on this but i strongly agree with you 8:00 technically, those exhausts arent done in the factory. its done at TLS (Toyota Logistics Service). also, we never installed a supercharger in the plant thats also done at TLS or maybe the dealership. Thank you for reviewing a product i literally had my hands building and i appreciate it. with that being said, i will not answer any questions about the future Tundra.

[@imJGott]

I work for Toyota and sadly they are going with a v6 Turbo Tundra for next Gen that’s why I decided to buy my 2020 Trd Pro while it’s still offered in the Beefy v8!! 😎

Turn all the nannies off and turn tow haul on. Tundra people call it “beast mode”

Cool review, Sarah. That truck is really nicely equipped and it looks like a great performer, too. And it's a Toyota! That TRD exhaust sounds really bad-ass too. Thanks for bringing your penguin friends along for the ride. As always, keep up the great work.

[@rivirme]

Sarah, you are so fun. Love your sense of humor and great job on the reviews. I'm glad you left the sneeze in; cute. Love that you are a car/truck enthusiast and you can wrench too!

[@WilliamCadiz]

LOVE that Army Green! The ONLY color I would consider getting if I were to buy one

[@marcsorensen1184]

Mine is super dark pearl blue but looks black. Everything is blacked out from the dealership. I love it but if they had that green Im sure I would have bought it. They did have one but it wasnt the crewmax cab.

Cement gray. It hides scratches easier and looks evil.

Thx for this review Sarah. I'm looking to get into to a Tundra soon, and so any reviews on them out there I'm watching...also thanks so much for all your hard work making these videos for us car nerds.

The toyota tundra is the best out there i know many of u will try to argue with me but its just true. I have a 05 with 482k a 2010 with 419k i have had 0 problems and i haul all the time using them as work trucks and my workers have ford and dodge and they have had to have engine work and transmission work as well as replacing multiple thing around the Drive train at just over 100k they just do not compare to toyota. Also there are many of these tundras that have hit 900k and even 1 million miles original just maintenance and those truck were ran to death hauling for oil companies in the hot heat of texas so there is that.

[@ZelphrinsGaming]

I've heard quite a bit of people call the Tundra the "Basic Trainer" truck, which shows you how to drive a 4x4 full size truck before stepping up to, say, a Ford or a Ram. I feel like that's pretty true as you don't get the comforts that the competitors give you (10 speed transmission, rear diff lock, safety features better than "safety sense," tuned suspension when not a TRD, and other examples). You get your basic non-distracting interior, with a big V8, and all the 4x4 power you need on and off road. In that aspect... yeah, I would make this my first full size truck so I get a feel of what a TRUCK is supposed to be... and then go buy myself a Silverado Trail Boss or a RAM TRX... because I like those things.

Hi. I’m a carpenter and may be able to provide some insight into why the spray in style bed liners are not standard. Well- other than money. Which is the obvious answer- they can charge extra for it. The regular style old plastic type bed liners are actually preferred by a lot of workers (not that this truck in particular would be used for work). The plastic ones are much easier to slide tools in and out of, they are easy to replace if they get damaged, (which in my experience doesn’t happen often) they are significantly easier to clean. Especially if paint or something like that is spilled. Also, I personally believe the spray in bed liners are problematic with covering, hiding and promoting rust. In my opinion the regular ole’ cheap plastic liners are just better...

Spoken like a truly clueless moron... Yes, the 2007-2017 JK Wranglers were junk, mainly from the POS 3.8L minivan motor they put in them...But the new 2018+ models with the 3.6L engine and 8-speed auto is a whole different ballgame.

[@faust13301]

I really like the Gladiator but I think the Tacoma would whip it's ass.

[@TroyPosey]

Count Drugula - In real offroad obstacles and situations? No way... The Gladiator Rubicon would stomp it. Look at the RTI ramp test results...Even a Taco with a $5,000 lift couldn’t beat a stock Gladiator Rubicon on the RTI ramp. The IFS kills the Taco’s performance.

I know comparing a corvair pickup to the Toyota is like comparing apples and oranges, but the corvair engine is used in some planes, there is an electric corvair, and there is a corvair pickup that is amphibious(there is a video of the corvair riding in a lake), in a museum. I have yet to see a Toyota, or any pickup that is amphibious. The corvair may have a silly or sissy name, but it is my favorite vehicle with engine in the rear, but your review and testing of the Toyota was excellent.
