I recently bought a 2021 Tundra TRD Pro. Your videos help familiarize me with the truck. Thank you.

[@Ken-h9r]

The Toyota V8's will be highly sought after like the 90's Land Cruiser

[@stevieray1828]

I think the 4.7 V8 is THE Toyota truck engine. The 5.7 is a little overrated, still good though

[@freddymartinez5613]

​@stevieray1828 you are wrong is the other way around

[@stevieray1828]

I purchased a 2020 in the summer of 2019. I absolutely love it. Built it out for overlanding but nothing crazy. Very basic and very fun. I think I have about 20K miles on it so far! Great video, thank you!

[@dwayneroberts6616]

I just bought a 2011 Tundra SRV TRD package with the 4.6 it has 284.000 MLS. The body and interior are in phenomenal shape and the 1st owner kept impeccable maintenance on it. I trust Toyota so much I passed up Dodge's and Fords with half the mileage. The 4.6 has that timing chain and pretty good gas mileage while still delivering 310 hp and a tow capacity of 10,400 lbs. I fully expect this to be my last vehicle at 61 yrs old. I love the truck so much I'll drop another engine in it before I buy another truck.

[@markdorman426]

I'm considering getting a 2nd gen Tundra and found this video helpful. Thanks!

[@ih8people679]

personal opinion but I just got a 2010 5.7 in October, had this limp mode problem with the air injection pump. where I live, no inspection every year so I got a bypass kit for 500$ also I kind of like the old school 2uz-fe thought I don't have any issues with the 5.7.

[@Kenneth-v4g]

One of the best most honest no BS review Ive ever seen on any vehicle. Thank you! Great job!

[@stevenkarkkainen8115]

We just bought a used 2015 Toyota Tundra Double Cab 5.7L TRD Off Road 4x4 ! First thing to do is toss the deteriorating O.E.M. Toyota bed liner and get a spray on Rhino Liner. Second, clean the rust underneath and spray on some Fluid Film corrosion inhibitor. Then a good set of All-Terrain tires. So far driven it 1000 miles and love it! 😊

[@stevenpeterson8444]

just made me love my 2017 Pro even more. great vid.

[@tryten9]

I still have my 2015 Tundra. It's NOT going anywhere, I love it.

[@OutdoorAuto]

I’m keeping mine forever

[@piggy310]

LOL it'll probably last a few lifetimes

[@BenDover-l5d]

Got a 2007 5.7 tundra absolutely love it..

[@eriknash8783]

Love the iconic retro colorways you did on this Tundra!

[@mrwayneoinsano]

Thanks for the awesome video. I just purchased a 2021 Toyota tundra with only 8000 miles and your video was quite inspiring. And your tundra build looks incredible. You have a great KZbin channel Please keep up the good work.

[@gregsmith9892]

Awesome video. It was nice seeing how it performed with the narration with it! Great job

[@butterscotchstrat]

Love this series idea. More please!!

[@jasonmckillip6690]

Great video! As a Toyota guy, I love this gen Tundra although I no longer own one (had three!). I would watch similar videos discussing other makes because I love trucks and learning the ins and outs of different platforms. Thanks for the content, subscribed!

[@J.Young808]

[@pineapple7502]

Awesome video!! Thanks for a great video with a lot of useful information! Makes me love my Tundra even more! 🤙🏽

[@ruckus5391]

I have a 2008 tundra limited. I bought it at 100k miles. I have 155k on it now and I have spent $35.00 in necessary repairs. That is not including of course maintenance costs like oil, filters, tires. I am a big fan of Jeep Gladiators, so if you want to do a video on them, that would be awesome! This was a great video!

[@Subiwootn]

I just scooped a 2019 Tundra TRD Pro. Im loving it already

[@Andrew.Breyton]

Best all around truck you can buy

[@LnWilliams]

Love my 2020 Sr5! Just found this page and subscribed. I guess I should jump to some sliders asap. Been rocking the amp research steps and they definitely don’t take too kindly to rocks. Or sliding.

[@perrymahnke886]

Really Awesome video and I don't even own a Toyota, I didn't buy a 2nd Gen Tundra because I needed a truck to haul my FWC Grandby. So I bought a 2nd Gen gas powered Dodge 2500 & I really really like my Dodge other than the 6 mpg going through the mountains. Thank you for creating Super Duper Awesome videos, you really do an amazing job of making videos.

[@timothymroberts2949]

Love the content. The score I give for this format is a five.... send it❤!!!

[@senseidadproductions]

Great Video - thanks for all the hard work. I have a 2017 Tacoma and wanted to go for a Tundra but like the rest of us not sure about the latest version. If I can find a decent used one, the 2nd Gen is probably the best bet for now. Keep them coming and thanks again!

[@fabianbaptiste1353]

I love my 2021 TRD prd overland build. Thank you for this video

[@hcstudent114]

More, please. Thanks for the hard work and always informative formatting.

[@corywilson3549]

Great video! I’ve done sliders and tires on my 2019. Now I’m itching to do suspension and front bumper!

[@fabianmoye7919]

My 2021 tundra has slightly appreciated some crazy way. From when i bought it a year ago

[@frankpenick6804]

Another great video! Bought my 18 Tundra last year after being more of a 4Runner guy and wish I had bought a Tundra 15 years ago. I went straight to 37s too because anything this big should have 37s! They're small BFG 37s though. 2.5" lift and they clear everything but sway bar when turning very hard left or right. But rubbing is racing

[@JsaephanhMienMusic]

37s not rubbing? No cutting?

[@frankpenick6804]

@JsaephanhMienMusic with the +35 Methods they rub the sway bar at full lock. I should ditch the sway bar but haven't gotten around to it. I hit the body mounts with the grinder also but a couple of trips and the only rubbing I had with the rear wheel well liners. The tires just touch when fully stuffed.

[@clarkblack8123]

Need to do the first gun tundra💪🏼 got the 4.7 and not much bigger than today’s Tacomas. Slides right thru the trails

[@JTADVENTURE2]

Great content. A lot of useful information as always. Thanks for the videos you make. Awesome work!

[@ktn4257]

I have a 2013 CrewMax 4WD Tundra and my only complaint is not about the truck itself but the ability to purchase aftermarket parts. Many manufacturers begin their inventory at 2014. Something to consider if you are in the market for a Gen 2. Thank you Nate for another awesome vid!

[@OutdoorAuto]

This is a good point... out of curiosity what were you shopping for recently that they didn't have before 2014?

[@Metal7771]

​@OutdoorAuto I have a 2013 as well, we are limited on after market grills, front/push bars, interior to name a few.

[@revpix2284]

Im about to buy a 2013 how bad is this problem?

[@ktnstuart]

@@OutdoorAutofront and rear bumpers

[@ktnstuart]

@@revpix2284it depends on what your after. Off-road manufactures like CBI and RCI do have bed racks and sliders but not 2013 fitment for front and rear bumpers. So there are manufacturers that make aftermarket bumpers but be wary of the quality if say you were expecting reliable recovery point quality. Many of the aftermarket bumpers are made of very thin metal. But if aesthetics are what’s important I’m sure there are many options out there.

[@cbeer9824]

Not sure if worthy of it's own video, but my unconventional offroader is my 2500 chevy avalanche. 8.1L powered with a full float 14 bolt. The back wall folds down in the avalanche so you can camp inside your cab below your tonneau covers. It’s perfect for me!

[@colbywalker3887]

My dad had one w the 8.1 beast. Cool truck

[@JoshLC80]

Great video man! I look forward to watching more of these videos! I had no idea how many engine options the tundra had.

[@bennettsmith2896]

Yes! Please make more. Great video. Love the 2nd Gen Tundra platform.

[@Rod-db8tt]

Awesome video. I love my '21 even though I won't ever take it crawling. I bought it for towing a RV and modified it as such. Trans cooler, Cat Shield, air bags, TRD rear swaybar, scangauge2 for trans temp, and eventually Borla dual exhaust.

[@JsaephanhMienMusic]

[@maxtwombly766]

Great video. Good idea for a series. Would love to see more.

[@CraigG21]

I like this new series!

[@dustyhiebert5748]

Another very educational video, professionally done as a lot of your videos are!! Thank you!! I have a 2019 Tundra CM and it already had a toytec leveling kit installed, rear air bags, and 1.5” wheel spacers with factory 18” wheels. I’ve ran 35x12.5 Grapplers for the last 4 years. I just recently purchased a set of Method MR312 17” wheels that have a Zero offset. The part I’m unsure of is whether or not I’ll have any rubbing issues when running the new wheels on 35x12.5’s.. 🤷🏽‍♂️. I’m glad I’ll no longer be using the wheel spacers but I’m just curious if you foresee any rubbing issues from this swap? Thanks again and keep up the great content!!

[@shanerogers787]

I have a 21 trd pro. I put some 285/70/18 falken wildpeak at4 with spare underneath. Everything fits and no rubbing. I like the bbs wheels and no need for me to lift it. I’m building for minor off-road to camping /overland / fishing. I love the truck and don’t want to beat it to death. Just want reversible add ons that work incase I want to change .

[@Trd2020]

I’ve been saying this. The Tundra does not need lockers.

[@07kdjohnson1]

Thanks for making this video!

[@Dav-S5658]

Very good video. Learned some things! My only hell no is the BP51 suspension.

[@raydewitt517]

Thanks! Very informative. 👍🏼

[@J.Young808]

On my 2023 Tacoma TRD OR ACLB I’m planning to put on sliders, and 0mm offset wheels to mount 255/85R16 C range (if I can find C) tires. The lift will come later unless I get the high clearance fender kit and cut up and relocate everything to keep stick suspension

[@SasukeUchiha-zu6dw]

I really like this series and appreciate the work it took. While I wait for you to do the 5th Gen 4Runner (hopefully before I buy one in the next month or two 😅), I eagerly wait for whatever you film and will definitely be watching. All these rigs are so cool!

[@JamieKite-y7b]

Love this series! I know a lot of the form factor will be the same as a Tundra, but I would like to see you do the F150 (not Raptor). I have a 2019 with coyote V8. Super duty review would be cool too.

[@robertschroeder01]

Thanks for the great video! I have an 08 but am thinking about going a tad newer with a 2016 Pro but glad to see this video either way!

[@TunLuv]

Great stuff as usual Nathan and thanks for the reminder on the ABS guards, I forgot about those! If you ever want to explore some of those backcountry gems we talked about or do the 4.6L vs. 5.7L 2nd gen Tundra comparison (or start that new series, where the road ends and the single-track begins) you know how to reach me. Cheers!

I'm in my "regular cab, short bed" phase of life, and I wish there were more used 2nd Gen Tundra's in that spec. If I am daydreaming, then might as well wish for a TRD blower too.

[@redranger1981]

Would love to learn what a current gen rav4 can do. I also have a 2021 Tundra.

[@luisramosyoungbloke1232]

Cool premise! I'd like to see one on the GX/Prado platform!

[@anorakadventures]

Hi Nate! I think you missed a talking point unless I missed it. To my recollection one of the main reasons the Tundra got "trail cred" as an offroading full size is that it has 4,000 lb axles. I don't own a Tundra so by all means let me know if I'm mistaken.

[@Bingoz277]

Will you overland a hybrid and turbo equipped vehicles?

[@johnmuffler1695]

I’m curious on your take on the new 2023 Nissan frontier

[@SuperSTEIN24]

Do one on the 2019-2023 Ford Ranger please!

[@SublimeTree]

Good info. Nate. Thanks again. I was wondering if they are still fixing the rusted frame recalls on 2009 models?

[@OutdoorAuto]

I think all the frame recalls have timed out at this point... but I am not positive.

[@eriknash8783]

I have a 2021, last year of the 5.7L and I love it. But one semi-wide spread problem which never reached recall status and was never fully address is the cam tower oil leak. Massively expensive and complicated repair, but you can let that oil weap for a very long time before it becomes a real problem. Still annoys me that Toyota never really acknowledged the problem as they never made any design updates to prevent this failure.

[@fundymentalism]

I know you're doing extreme stuff... but I would love a baby version of a camper and suspension upgrade for weight !

[@Palmettoraised96]

Does it need to be a TRD pro or does a SR5 with 4x4 gonna do for most people?

[@OutdoorAuto]

I for the most part get the lower trims and then customize to my actual use.

[@mikemcf9189]

Would love your thoughts on my beloved '90s suburban! Or the new kids on the block (Gladiator, Branco)

[@JonathanK1974]

Platform for reviews: 2nd Generation Colorado Z71. Not the ZR2, as there have been many builds with that platform. I have 2015 Colorado Z71 Crew Cab Long Bed and have wondered this.

[@nathankrassow3007]

What trim level 2nd gen would you buy to build on? Plan on putting a truck bed camper (most likely a 4Wheel Camper) to live out of.

[@OutdoorAuto]

I never do TRD cause I usually change too much out… so I just go for whatever trim has the interior I like… usually the platinum

[@nathankrassow3007]

@ Does the TRD OffRoad package on these change anything with 4wheel drive? Like obviously with my 4runner you get crawl control and locker.

[@colebowden7904]

Do the 1st gen Titan!

[@charleslee4528]

I just sold my 2014 SR5 and picked up a 2021 TRD Pro. They are the last great truck. No displacement-on-demand. No active fuel management. Minimal foo-foo electronics.
