This Toyota Tundra TRD Desert Chase Concept Could Be An Epic Raptor & TRX Fighter! | SEMA Insider

[@gransport4246]

This actually does the TRD Pro justice. Probably what it should have been from the beginning.

[@andresherrera6241]

Please tell your contacts at Toyota they NEED to put this into Production to compete with Raptor/TRX!! Or make it all optional! I would buy this in a heart beat over competitors. Love the content TFL, keep it coming!

[@371kenny]

This is what the should have made the pro

[@dude-yg9ez]

Most people aren't gonna be doing extreme off road stuff on a raptor or trd pro, they made the pro to be live able, unlike a trx or raptor

[@herewegoagain7403]

Conservative Toyota will never make this, that’s why the aftermarket support is strong for the community. Expect more builds

[@peaceonearth8693]

Just an excitement builder to cover up that last year there was a V8 and this year there's just more complexity and more expense.

[@C10sRule]

HereWeGoAgain - Well said. If Toyota built it ( miracles happen, the fenders are going to be aluminum, not Carbon Fibre. The powertrain is more than powerful enough, but there are those who can’t get enough, so, no matter what, there’s never enough power. The TRX changed this market of truck, but not necessarily for the better. That truck truly is overpowered, especially for real world day to day driving. Fuel economy is a joke, you cannot legally use all that horsepower, so unless you have access to a high speed off-road track that doesn’t have too serious of jumps (it doesn’t fly well) you can never use all the power there. The Raptor is actually reasonably powered for today’s market. Currently. They will go into the ludicrous mode like Ram with at least 703 hp, probably 730 hp, just to compete. For what? I’m not sure, but compete, nonetheless.

[@MarketAndChurch]

@@C10sRule TRX is a joke. I wish RAM offered a 500hp TRX Hemi option. I don't need the power, I need the frame and suspension upgrades.

[@andyham6094]

37’s look perfect on the tundra

[@McCracken216]

Rather have 35's.

[@shaneyoung7635]

Would love to see this come to production! I am a RAM fan, but we all know Toyota's dependability standards are the best! I would seriously consider this truck.

[@SteveOrellana]

I come back to this video alot. This is the Tundra that would basically jump up the latter and be the best truck out there

I love how this turned out they should really do it. I’ll be buying one if they do.

[@geauxbears87]

I fall in love with the TRD pro and now I fallen for this one!!!!

[@BROON71]

Even if they don't build this truck, Toyota should sell the TRD suspension bits (A-Arms, Shocks, lift, etc) for customers to buy separately..

[@greggtucker765]

That would be a badass production truck with a little bit extra HP

[@nicosalsa]

I really hope they do produce this TRD kit 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@ericnexplore]

That would be great but I wouldn’t hold my breath on this concept becoming real.

[@fredmagic09]

[@alexorcas1]

I would love to have one of these if they ever made one. Add an inverter system like the f-150 now has and it’d be hard to say no to one of those.

im getting me one also....never had a new car all my cars used but paid full....this i like im willing to make payments with this truck plus its toyota

Can't imagine that rear track bar is going to stay at that position. Pretty awesome long travel build.

[@TactileCoder]

You know as well as I do the dudebros who ̶b̶u̶y̶ lease this truck biggest hurdle will be going over the speed bump at Starbucks. The tires will never see a spec of dirt and you'll see these blinding lights behind you accompanied by an annoying WHIRRRRRRR sound as the truck toots along at 10MPG.

[@mutinyrider666]

The dude bros?? XD toyota kills at off road , still nothing can touch the Tacoma, and the new tundra is twin turbo hybrid with nearly 600 hp and better gas mileage to boot. Who mall crawls tundras ? This isn't a farm truck Sierra or f150

[@Noo45883]

37 inch tall tires,wide body kit and offroad features are the best features of this new super truck.

[@peaceonearth8693]

Except it's not a new super truck. It's eye candy for marketing reasons. And, if in two or three years something like this goes on sale. It will be unaffordable to 90% or so, of the truck buyers. Like I said, it's a marketing gimmick.

[@TontoBongRonto]

No tow hooks still. .

[@homerfeltheim12345]

Toyota really needs to consider this. GM kinda dropped the ball with the ZR2/AT4X wonder twins. While very good offerings they still fall short of at minimum the raptor for about the same price. Toyota could seize on this

[@gavinwalker1876]

I hope they make it with a bench seat so I could actually buy one that could fit the whole family!

[@Toyota4Life]

I swear it’s like Toyota never wants to unlock the true potential of the vehicle the company has the money but they’re so conservative I truly believe they make the best vehicles on the market but they need to let loose sometimes

[@saltystripesfishing2980]

If this goes on the market, it will be the coolest looking truck out there.

Absolutely! TRD Extreme

[@plu5five]

Cool concept! I still wonder why major automotive manufacturers build these IFS suspension based trucks/suvs and keep using these steering racks that have tiny rod ends that are prone to breaking? New Broncos are having this problem when 37s are added anda little "wheeling" goes down...Makes you think they could design a beefy proper steering setup to accommodate the beefier control arms, spindles and coilovers the end user keeps buying..🧐🤔

[@jacobdionne4334]

The Tundra tie rod ends are anything but tiny. Larger than most manufacturers

[@plu5five]

@@jacobdionne4334 I looked at the material and diameter of the Tundra tie rods and ends in relation to the other suspension components and it still seems like they could be a weak link or made more stout. Its just my observation from seeing what other automotive manufacturers use and for what applications.

[@frankbuettner4513]

This is awesome! Toyota please bring this to market. It looks great! Plus with the reliability only Toyota brings. Love to have it in my driveway!

[@albertofranco6122]

Toyota should do a commercial showing a Raptor and T-rex dinosaur walking through the frozen tundra and then dieng off. "Although they were fast and impressive in their time, eventually they all fell to the sheer power and nature of the tundra" the all new 2022 Toyota Tundra lol

[@Inferno45]

This is gonna stay like Nissans Titan XD concept. Its never gonna get built because Toyota and Nissan don’t sell enough full-size trucks

[@chiemekaa]

Which makes less sense because something like this will generate more interest which translates into more sales in the red hot truck market. It's too bad Nissan didn't give the Warrior the green light, and they wonder why sales are so poor. They could have done that instead of the woeful XD.

Diesel Hybrid desert racer for Dakar and then a street version of that. Serves the over-landing crowd, the diesel is easily sourced from other markets. I wonder how heavy this will be compared to the raptor with the hybrid

Damn! Best looking truck ever made by Toyota! The 37s make a huge difference than the production tyres.

[@rohawkcc]

Question y'all, I am trying to search for data about the Tundra 2022 Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's crash test, or when it will be performed. One criterion I have is safety. The last Tundra model had subpar ratings (which is why I will not purchase it), while the 2021 F-150 had excellent scores across the board. The Tundra's reliability and durability are well renowned. If the 2022 Tundras crash test results are anything like the previous generation... this would make the F-150 more appealing to me.

[@kennethlipton2404]

Toyota, for the love of truck fanatics everywhere, please produce this truck

[@BigSticky805]

[@wildstar365]

Love it! I'm one that prefers the SR5 trim models looks over the 2022 TRD facia and trim but this nails it!! Never be in my price range and I need to tow(abt 7000lbs) but really would like to see this out there on the road!

[@jacobdionne4334]

It’ll tow almost double that…

[@stevewade3313]

The Tacoma has a 7000lbs tow rating, so this should tow that.

[@wildstar365]

Very true but I’d rather not stress the limits of the drivetrain, abt 2/3 of my miles are towing.....I drive a 2016 SR5 double cab Tundra now and love it.

[@jacobdionne4334]

[@UPRISING144K]

Love it, but I probably wouldn’t love the price 😂

[@MuhammadWaqas-zi9nk]

I love this truck. They should start mass producing this ASAP if they want to compete with raptor.

[@trouthunter22]

The 37’s and upgraded suspension look good. More mid-travel than long-Travel based on the poke. The wide body fenders are out of proportion. The black fender surrounds against the white body make it look like the tires are 6” inside the fenders. Without travel/clearance/approach/departure specs it’s kinda hard to tell. I would have also liked to see a version of the truck with the exact same suspension upgrades on 35’s and 37’s without the wide body kit. Looks like they extended some of the front trim pieces to fill space between the tube bumper and the area on both sides of the grill. Makes the lower front look long. The redesign added 4.5” to the overall length compared to the previous Gen. Adding longer front bumpers and trim only adds to the underbite. Makes it look nose heavy and susceptible to plowing when transitioning off steps slopes or in the whoops. I like the new tundra but I think they could do much better. Give trucks to Addictive Desert Designs, King, Icon, and a few others and I’m pretty sure their builds will have the right balance between design aesthetics, functionality and performance.
