Toyota TUNDRA vs Nissan TITAN - This is the one I'd buy and why

- As I’m sure you’ve heard by now the 2022 Toyota Tundra has been redesigned for the first time in 15 long years for the third generation, and there are some major changes with the new model.
In this video I’m going to compare it to the 2022 Nissan Titan both in the spec and tech, but more so in design and then I’m going to let you know which one I would buy and why.
Starting with the powertrain - the 2022 Toyota Tundra will NOT offer a V8 anymore which is a shame, instead it comes with two engine options - a standard or hybrid V6 with the focus being more on gas mileage and luxury than the previous model.
I can see the gas mileage savings being a priority but I’m not so sure about the luxury aspect. The reason being it will drive up the price even for a base model and make it less affordable for people just wanting a regular full-size truck without paying for all the added luxury features.
The standard version develops 389 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque which isn’t bad for a base engine. However the hybrid version comes with an electric motor hooked up to it and this means you can drive it on pure electric power only at low speeds.
This hybrid combo boosts the power up to 437 horses and 583 pound-feet. Also new for 2022 is the rear suspension, which utilized leaf-springs in the previous generation. This has now been replaced with a more refined coil-spring setup that should improve overall comfort and handling.
Just because the V8 is no more doesn’t mean the new Tundra can’t tow heavy loads. If you opt for the hybrid engine, the Tundra can tow an impressive 12,000 pounds.
Of course, the 2022 Toyota Tundra comes in a TRD Pro trim level and this means it’s fitted with special TRD-tuned springs which gives it an additional 1.1-inch of ground clearance compared to other trims.
In addition, the TRD Pro Tundra also comes with a TRD front anti-roll bar, an aluminium front skid plate, Multi-Terrain Select, Crawl Control, Falken all-terrain tires, an electronic locking rear differential, 2.5-inch diameter Fox dampers and of course unique exterior and interior TRD graphics. The TRD Pro is the one we’re going to use when we jump into Photoshop in a minute.
Some of the new interior options for 2022 are the panoramic sunroof, heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a rear sunshade and a digital gauge cluster.
The 2022 Nissan Titan still has the option of a V8 engine for the 2022 model year however that’s also the only option they offer for the Titan. This beast of an engine is a 5.6-liter V8 with 400 horsepower and comes standard in every 2022 Nissan Titan.
If you like power, you’ll love the Titan but if you’re more concerned about fuel economy you might want to look at other options. Unlike the Tundra, four-wheel-drive comes standard on all Titans whereas in the Toyota Tundra you get two-wheel-drive as standard with four-wheel-drive as an option.
You would think since the 2022 Nissan Titan has a bigger engine than the Tundra, it will be able to tow a lot more. Incorrect. With a standard tow hitch receiver, the Titan can only tow 10,880 pounds. Still a lot of weight, but less than the 2022 Toyota Tundra at 12,000 pounds.
The 2022 Nissan Titan didn’t get nearly as many changes as the Tundra did for 2022 and that’s ok because the design language still feels fresh and in line with brand new Nissan models. On the inside, you have a 8.0-inch touchscreen as standard, with 9.0-inch as an option for higher trim levels. Apple CarPlay and Android Audio come standard in every Titan.
Nissan obviously has an equivalent off-road focused trim level to the TRD Pro and it’s called the XD Pro-4X. This trim level adds Bilstein off-road shocks, an electronic locking rear differential, fog lights, unique cloth seats with nice contrast stitching, and the upgraded 9.0-inch touchscreen. This is the version we’re going to compare to the TRD Pro.

The height of the Titan grill logo area on the hood is a functional aspect to protect the front from stone chips...and the Titan seats are the best in class. Period. A seriously underrated truck.
Just bought a 2023 Nissan Titan Platinum Reserve. So far I love it!
Hahahahah….My neighbor’08 5.7l tundra needed timing chain stuff fixed at 175,000 miles….my 08 5.6 Titan needed nothing yet at 210,000 miles, except regular oil and fluids change…I asked him, do you still buy buy Tundra again…he said “yes” because people say Tundra is better than Titan…I just smiled and told him “ my Titan still running good at 210,000 miles and does not need any repair yet”…
My friends Tundra had a rattle at 165k. He sold it but it could of been the tensioners.
I bought a 2013 Titan in 2014 with almost 30,000 miles. 6 inch lift and 35 immediately.. Fast forward 8 yrs later, 215,000 miles and still a beast. Most reliable vehicle I've ever owned
Cool story.
@@Pantelifts10 timing belts get replaced. Not timing chains. Timing chains are lifelong items.
Greekcanadianpan timing CHAINS should last the life of the engine. Look up timing belts vs timing chains. I think you should educate yourself more before making statements that you don’t know what you’re talking about
All I want from Nissan is a Warrior.
Who doesnt?!! 😂
I been waiting forever for the warrior to come out so I could get a new truck. I have a 08 Titan that still runs like a champ
Well they're most definitely not going to make it, if anything it's going out of production. They already pulled it out from Canada because no one is buying them. The new titan has been a massive fail. They only sold 22k in 2021. The ridgeline sold 37k for 2021. You know something is wrong when the ridgeline is outselling any truck.
@@alexgarcia3900 That is precisely why they're failing. The Titan is competent but without any newer products to distinguish itself from the rest of the class, they're doomed. The Warrior (which actually came out before Ram introduced the Rebel) should have been the way to go, rather they foolishly and catastrophically chose XD.
@@chiemekaa if you read you comment again you said they needed to distinguish themselves and the xd was actually that. Once something fails it's almost impossible to turn it around. Hard to build a warrior and invest all this time and money when they're not even making a profit on the titan. Those resources are going elsewhere
That Titan is MONEY. The rear end is a throw back to the old 1st GEN Hard Body's and Pathfinders with the black treatment on the tailgate. My 88 Pathfinder 4x4 was a BEAST out the box if the Titan goes back to that level of quality...TAKE MY MONEY.
They are quickly regaining their quality now that the renault ceo is out of the picture. I had a first gen titan and loved that beast. Would absolutely buy a Nissan over any other brand.
Titan comes with a 5year 100,000 Miles bumper to bumper coverage!! End of conversation...
My 2004 Titan still runs like a dream.
I own a 2021 Nissan Titan Pro4X and it's an awesome truck and probably the most underrated.
اشكرك نيسان اسعارها معقوله 👍🏽
Same as the Frontier in the smaller truck line up
Any shifting problems with the titan ?
@@spliter200
Nope, that was the previous 7 speed this is the 9 speed and it's actually seem less. I also believe that complaint of the 7 speed was blown out of proportion on purpose by others.
@@mikeriv60 I have zero shifting issues in my 2019 Pro4x.
Tundra owner here, id take either or. Maybe leaning toward the Tundra cus my current 2014 tundra has horrendous mpg. Titan has always been a cool truck to me tho. Saw a new Frontier a few days ago, now that as an eye catching truck. I’d probably pick that over the Taco.
Seeing a lot of testers not getting the MPG Toyota states so sounds like all that work to get rid of the V8 is t paying off
@@noelk6606 ya I finally met someone with one he was doing the math and he’s metric so I was like what’s that in gallons
Click click click 15-16 mpg
No matter what others say, I still love my Titan under anything, and it hasn't died on me.
You mean "Haven't died on you yet!" Why I ditch the titan for the tundra....REALIABLITY.
I loved my 04 titan, w 175k and miss that truck, cats caused pre mature engine damage. Had to get rid of ... I may purchase a new taco trd
@@PeterGriffer247 7 year bumper to bumper warranty or 150k miles 🤔
Same on my 2nd one myself Love it
Under anything is correct. Nice truck none the less.
Considering I got $12,500 off MSRP on my base model 2021 Titan, I’ll take the titan.
Bought a 2019 Nissan Titan 4x4 crew cab for $36,000 instead $44,000 good deal
My 2017 Titan was MSRP of 49500 and I walked out paying $32000. There is no way you are going to get those kind of deals from Toyota, they really like their vehicles and that is reflected in the price.
When did you buy it? How did you get $12k off MSRP?
How and when?!
Boy they really improved the exterior aesthetics of the Titan.
I bought the Pro4X, breaks domestic necks. VK56 with exhaust is all you need 🤙
The stock exhaust on my 2018 Titan keeps sounding better and better
I'm a vq37vhr owner myself 👊🏾🤙🏾
Titan all the way for me! I have a 2018 Titan Pro4x and yet to have a single issue . Both trucks are nice looking.
With similar MPG, its easy to choose the natuarally aspirated V8. Its not even close to me.
I have a 2018 Nissan Titan Pro 4X. Where I work my co- workers are always giving me compliments on my truck. These dudes drive , Rams, Silverados, F-150's and Tundra's. I guess they know a looking truck when they see one.😎
you right alway i love titan i i'm so poor people but i driving the 2008 4full doors with the 4wd and i love..it
@@luiszorto1222 Titan is a good quality truck!! It gets overlooked a lot. Keep driving.
Had a 2004 Titan loved it. Went right back and got a 2019 love it also.
Just bought one for 6k with under 100k in mileage a couple months ago. Love it
My Titan has been awesome. Glad I bought it over any other truck. Fuel sucks but it’s a truck
I have an 2019 Nissan Titan 4x4 5.6L, I love it, it has tons of horsepower and towed my travel trailer really good.
Yeah, but in 2021 it’s a lame excuse for not incorporar some numbers and a little technology to get some better gas mileage
Great truck but 13mpg keeps me up at night
@@colehensley4774 2020 and up have a 9speed transmission. They don’t get 13mpg.
@@calebniederhofer6529 mine is an 04 so sadly, mine does
I would still take the Titan knowing it's still rocking the n/a V8.
i believe its the same v8 they have been using from day 1
Dumb statement.
Its sad that neither one of these trucks will get the respect they deserve...most people perfer the big 3
Sad to say but rightfully so, I love my F-150 and I've never once considered a Titan or Tundra, the Titan had an identity crisis between whether it wanted to be a half ton or 3/4 ton, and them dropping the 5.0 Cummins gives me no reason to want one, it was such a unique motor. The outgoing Tundra is old but I see the appeal, traditional truck recipe and a tried and true motor, but the new one is simply over styled for my taste and I don't think a lot of truck buyers are going to like their decision to move upscale and ditch the V8. The truth is, the big 3 are just more competitive, they update they're trucks so often to stay at the front of the pack and they give customers more options on power trains and trim levels.
Theres a reason more people prefer the big 3. GM and Ford trucks are just superior trucks and the Ram just looks better.
@@jibrilsarabi2908 Ram trucks are trash..terrible quality control...and I wouldn't say superior....I would say there updated faster...Japanese quality is above average
@@jibrilsarabi2908 the Tacoma alone pretty much beats them out in reliably and resale....just not in looks lol
@@jibrilsarabi2908 only issue is gm ram and mainly Ford is they make crappy vehicles and don’t always keep there word on there warranty
I bought a 21 PRO 4X and absolutely love it. My first titan and I'm glad I did. Now Nissan make the warrior
Nissan finally did away with that goofy Pep Boys special fake vent on the front fenders. HUGE improvement
Titan Pro 4X rules!
It’s a beautiful machine
Yeap I agree I have a 2019 Titan midnight edition white on blk and the new 2021 Baja Storm Titan Pro 4x and I still have my 2006 Titan SE with 211,836 miles on 💥 POW💣😎🤙🏼😂😂😂
I just bought a 2021 pro4x after lemon law my 2020 sierra at4 man I love the prrr of the 5.6 and the 9 speed transmission. Such a fun machine to drive amd the quality is awesome. Definitely underrated but I love having something you don't see all the time on the road.
@@rickya1338 hell yea
@@carloscampos3684 good move. Very underrated and I love the fact there’s less of them on the road as well.
just one clarification, its just the Pro-4x. the Titan XD Pro-4x is different than the standard one
I'm leaning toward buying a 2018 Titan. It seems like a really underrated truck and price reflects that. I really like the current gen Tundras but honestly, I'm priced out. Plus, I'm old school and like a big, low stress V8, which would lead me to buy a new Titan over a new Tundra, if I could afford it.
You won't regret. These things are sporty and also workhorses.
Agree. For some reason, the Titan loses value faster. This means you can get a used one for a great price.
@@_I_only_work_here yes they will now drop like a log because Nissan just announced they are ending production after 2024.
The Toyota looks like a storm trooper from Star Wars
Very good review, couldn't agree more, right on the money
Have a 23 Pro4X XD that is replacing my 09 Frontier. My frontier has given me 215K trouble free miles. I'm very happy with my new Titan.
Still driving my 05 4dr 4X4 with 113,000 origins miles. Great truck. I can't imagine driving anything but another Titan.
That white Tundra reminds me of a Storm Trooper. Just picked up a '23 Pro 4X and so far it's great. At 500 miles breaking in nicely and pleasantly surprised getting 19 mpg combined as long as I don't put my foot in it all the time.
Good video
Great review buddy. Titan all the way
I'll take the Tundra all day overall. The looks, power, fuel efficiency, features and reliability. Once they put the GTR engine on the Titan, then we will have a competition. The new Tundra will be the truck of the year!
I'm not so sure. If you're referring to Motor Trend's TOTY, the Rivian R1T which seems to appear all over the channel to the point of looking sponsored, might be a tough challenger to the Tundra. That being said, the Tundra did win the award for 2000.
facts 💯
if Titan gets 16/21 with 9 speed auto and current 5.7 Tundra is 13/17 with 6 speed, we will never find out if 5.7 with 10 speed worked well together
@Jean Toronto Raptors
What's your definition of a real truck?
@Jean Toronto Raptors
Is the Lightning body on frame? I'm also guessing by your premise that the electric Hummer isn't a real truck.
I totally agree what you said appreciate the 411, I used to have a 2004 Titan and I like the shifter a lot better on the console than I do on the column. I also think a shark fin would be cool just like its younger brother the frontier. I’ve owned a tundra also 2020 trd pro, and I must admit I will take the Titan over the tundra if I had to do it again.💪🏼👍🏼
100% agree console shifter is more fun.
@@jeffvertolli3890 totally 2nd that 👍🏼
I'm in a 2019 Frontier, but am considering a newer full-size truck and the Titan is currently on top of my list. Yes the GM trucks look great and get better fuel economy, but as I understand it their tranny's won't go much past 150K (and very possibly less), so again the Nissan has my vote. It'll likely be my fourth Nissan in the last 40+ years and no serious issues before 225K on any of the earlier 2. And I really like the looks of the 2023 Titan. As to the Tundra........................I'm not buying a 6 cycler high output engine. IMO it'll be asking for trouble. Again IMO there's no replacement for displacement.
I will choose toyota tundra.
Hi, could you please do a video on Honda city zx 10th gen released in India, Thailand and Malaysia...thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I had a nissan pickup truck. It was the NISMO Packet…….Bought it brand new off the lot. 4 years later, had to replaced the transmission. Cost an arm and a leg. 5 years later, having electrical problem…Sometimes engine shuts off when i’m driving in the middle of the road. Maybe I’m just having back luck with the NISSAN truck.
I’m a New Titan owner.
I’m coming from Two Tundras. A 2012 SR5 and a 2018 Tundra Sport.
I now own a 2021Titan Pro4X. I Love it. I will not be going back to a Toyota.
It’s not that I didn’t like my Tundra, but I will never pay the additional markup that dealerships are adding on to the new Tundras. I sold my 2018 tundra back to Toyota in hopes of getting the new 2022 Tundra when it was released for sale.
After seeing the price of these new trucks after the dealer mark up, they can kiss my ass.
How’s your luck recently? I was thinking about the new tundra but the titan platinum reserve is really growing on me. Just not sure which one to go with. I’m between the limited 2022 tundra or the titan. I just haven’t seen anything to push me over that edge
@@magicsashplaysmc4636
Like I’ve said before, I’ve owed two Tundras, and can honestly say that I love this 21 Titan Pro4X. Im glad I didn’t wait for the 22 Tundras.
@@Real-Americans-For-Trump-2024 Im hoping to find a used 2020 since the 21's are still a little expensive for me.
Titan sv 2021 with lane assist is growing on me. I thought for sure I was going to get a 21 lariat or 21 tundra🤔
12,000 lbs towing with that wheelbase? These companies are getting reckless with towing numbers. people that dont know better will end up in ditches.
Also copying the raptor with those orange grill lights is incredibility lame
Sure lol I think you sound lame
Look to get my first truck . I’m a tundra fan not the new tundra, but the older tundra body style like a 2018 body style. I’m really a huge fan of the back window of the tundra. I know that kinda of trademark of Toyota my aunt had a 4 runner about 15 years ago and that back window went completely down . I wish all pickup trucks had that. I never looked into a titan but what peaked my interest in a titan is that i currently own a 2013 Nissan Maxima that i bought in 2015 and i absolutely love they car , so that kinda makes me want to stay in the Nissan/ infinity family
I love Nissan Titan and Titan XD with gas V8 this Nissan Titan V8 is a backup truck. After the Tundra V8 is dropped out.
So... the TRD Pro has no front tow hooks?.. Am I missing something?
First time seeing your video, pretty cool man. I would like to let you know the photo you were comparing and drawing on, is not the XD version of the Titan. It is the non-XD version. So for Titan the XD is geared towards better towing because of the reinforced frame. The non-XD version (smaller) is geared towards daily driving/ smaller towing like a boat. Both versions can have the offroad package. Also all offroad pro-4x has every safety feature standard. So 360 camera, smart cruise control. Etc. The only things you can pay more for as far as levels of Pro-4x, is the 2nd level has heated seats. The 3rd level(top level) will have cooled seats and panoramic sunroof.
So I guess you need to redraw with the real Nissan Titan XD.
The Nissan Titan XD is taller and longer than the non-XD.
So maybe change your title to non-XD Nissan Titan comparison.
This guy should get a 3/4 ton.. nothing wrong with what these 1/2 tons have
.. what a guy
You actually forgot to mention that Nissan actually has the highest vehicle safety ratings than any other vehicle & also that Nissans can last 100-500 years from generation to generation if taken care of correctly.
I've had both. Currently have the titan pro4x and I love getting in this machine. Tundra with the v6 just does not appeal to me but the 5.7 was great for me. Both great trucks I just love the v8. Not sure I like tue new design yet of the tundra.
Around 4:05 you mention the offroad version for Nissan. Slight correction, the TRD Pro for Nissan is Pro4x, without XD. The XD is a whole different chassis created for towing. Still called Titan XD but way more capable that the regular Titan or Tundra. You are right that there is also an XD Pro4x but it is not a direct comparison to Tundra.
I'll be honest, the first adjective that comes to mind is "phuglly! What's with the oversized Lexus grille. The Overlander crowd are gonna have a heck of a time designing and mounting aftermarket bumpers ,winches and accessory lights. But I do appreciate the technological advances engine and suspension wise. But aesthetically I prefer the sportier lines of the previous model. I'll just have to keep rolling along in my '94 Pre-Taco 4x4.
I wish Titan brought back the big sliding mirror it has in the first generation.
I waiting on the 2023 Titan to see if they improve the truck.
1. Improve towing to around 11k lbs any more buy a HD.
2. Option a twin turbo six with 400 hp and gobs of torque. Keep the V8.
3. Follow Ford and go with aluminum.
4. Multi link rear suspension. It’s been proven on the RAM’s.
5. Offer an EV.
Tundra
1. Front tow hooks. Farmers, construction workers and so forth need them more than you think.
2. Put in an aggressive tread in the bed
3. Multi use tailgate
4. Love it or hate styling
IDK. Nissan has stepped up the SUV’s and the frontier. Put some thought and engineering marvels in the Titan. There are in last place for a reason.
My 2017 Titan has a lot of aluminum panels, they just don't seem to advertise them. They make the Titan XD that tows 12000+ pounds, it also has a heavier frame. My favorite thing about the Titan is that they don't have the stupid autostop on the engine and they don't mess around with all of the hybrid garbage. I still get 24 MPG on the highway and I have the old 7-speed transmission and not the new 9-speed. As far as suspension, the leaf springs work well and it has a pretty smooth suspension, coil overs would just make it squat more when towing. I can see Nissan making a V6TT version, since they have been known for doing that in the past, but I would rather they just supercharge the V8, not that I feel it needs any more power, since it breaks my tires free all the time already.
I think its tragic that honda hasn't come out with a rival for these bad boys 😢
Do you know the total height on the TRD PRO?
I still have my 2004 Titan. I bought a 2017 Tundra Pro with double cab to replace it. The ride was horrible, the seats were hard as wood in the Tundra, then me and my buddy drag raced them across and empty parking lot one day. The 2004 Titan kicked my Tundra's ass. I was pissed. I mean pissed. My buddy couldn't stop laughing at me when he saw my face. Unloaded the Pro for a profit over what I bought it earlier this year. Took the money I made off the Tundra added some more to it then put new suspension on the Titan, new radiator, new transmission and haven't looked back since. its paid for and my insurance is dirt cheap. 166,000 miles and I've not touched a single thing on the engine, not a single thing, its bullet proof. And if I ever get in an accident with another vehicle, all that heavy steel in the Titan is going to crush whomever I tangle with.
Agree my 2008 Titan Platinum is about to hit 301,000 miles and so far the engine and transmission for me have been bulletproof. Had to replace catalytic converters and radiator but still running strong. Probably going to pass it on to my son next year when he turns 16 but I still enjoy driving it. Usually put a couple hundred miles on it a day for work and will haul more then I should payload wise a couple times a week, over 2000 lbs sometime but always feels stable and brakes well. I might just keep it for myself and see how many more miles this thing will go.
Because of a drag race lol smh
We should be careful on money useage,if you are not spending to earn back,then stop spending.
There might be many investments out there but if profit must be considered,which is the actual sole of investment, I will advice you to go into bitcoin trading because it has higher profit than most investment.
Of course it is profitable,I made good profit of $20,000 with the capital of $4500 in my last trading I have made over $200,000.
Wow that is an awesome return on your investment, please what strategy did use And how can I start up such investment.
I bet eventually someone will definitely V8 swap the new Tundra whether hybrid or not!
I’d love to see that!
But the new v6 engine has more power than the old v8 tundras
Who is that dumb? This isn't a Honda Civic
I absolutely agree on breaking all that black up on the grill of the Tundra….it’s just to much…got a feeling the Tacoma is going to get the same ugly grill in its redesign…. I know some ppl will like this grill and to each his own. But as for looks go. I think the titan looks better
I like both of them.
I remember when u reviewed the new wrx sti.. and how much you complained about the wheel wells and the black body cladding and how it made the tires look small. I see the same problem with the tundra.. the tires look super small
That was a WRX, STi got discontinued 2021
Ill try to design the Titan in the future… lets see
People get really hung up on black fender flares making wheel well look larger... in bad photos. In real life it's probably not an issue at all.
Purchased a Nissan Titan SL 5ltr Cummins Turbo diesel for 49k. Hindsight? Ugh. After having a problem at 22k, the truck is towing my 7.2k Lance 2375 just fine averaging almost 14mpg. I also carry 12 gallons of diesel in 2-6 gallon cans that gives me a range of over 350 miles in most conditions. I especially like the features standard on the S.L.
No question here, Toyota on any days if you want to make the right choice!
Didn't the turbo v6 tundra get taken off the recommended list?
As a 2004 nissan titan owner. with 200k miles on it. I wouldn't put my money on a v6🤣🤣. I love my truck, but it's time to get the 2022 titan 5.6.
Good video but he must not Ulinger stand that the v6 tundra has way more power than the Nissan. Two more cylinders and less power just means worse gas mileage.
I bought the 2022 titan pro 4x.
Here in working America. Trucks pull trailers and haul weight. Can we get a truck that does more truck stuff? Haul more, pull more, Nice seats and a good radio. Enough b.s. on trucks!
So you are judging both trucks based on body style and design only? While that matters a bit, what matters to truck buyers is payload, towing capacity, technology (ie. backup cameras, clearance cameras, driver assist packages), off-road capability, unladen fuel economy, and comfort. Can you review those too?
Sadly most 1/2 ton drivers care mostly about that stuff. They really almost never need a truck for truck stuff
The Tundra has better backup cameras as far as resolution but both trucks have them. The Titan will feel better when pulling or hauling whatever you got but mpg will be worse. The new Tundra will have suspension that feels more less like a truck and more towards a car while the Titan will drive like an old school nostalgic American truck and suspension is good but more like expected with a 1/2 ton. V-8 on Titan and with a Toyota type transmission is what you get on them now so that’s great news! Toyota is all supercharged V-6 now but the hp will still be high, have good sound just not that iconic V-8.
When it saw the new Tundra, one vehicle sprung to mind. Its a Tundra/Corolla
2017 Nissan Titan fkd up ignition coils and spark plugs I still get 20+ mpg on the highway 18+ on the streets 16+ heavy traffic 118k heavy miles
The Tundra just from a depreciation and reliability standpoint wins here 100/100 times.
I don’t think you can base this of the past tundras it’s a completely different vehicle even the engine is different
The issue with your statement is that not enough people have experienced a titan compared to Tundra. This is because of reliability issues that happened years ago before the titan ever came out (2004). I have owned 3 titans and know a bunch of people who have owned titans and like me still own. My 2009 went to 430k miles with only regular maintenance brakes, transmission switches, oil etc. Same with my 2014 XD. Now I own a 2021 XD gas platinum reserve. I just don't ever have problems and I don't know anyone who has had issues with Nissan trucks. Don't know about the cars but anyway with the low sales. I think it is due to the massive issues with their car and SUV iterations in the past with all of the recalls this truck just doesn't sell because of bad brand rap
My thoughts exactly. Nissan Titan has horrible resale
Not the 2022
This comment has aged like warm milk. How about that tundra reliability? 😂
I enjoy your design interpretations. I’m not sure if you acknowledged that the 2022 Tundra is 4.9” longer in overall body length than the Titan. The 2022 Tundra is 4.5” longer than the 2021 Tundra. The added length comes with zero added functionality. Interior cab space is the same or slightly less and the interior usable bed length is the same. Turning radius curb-to-curb is 44’ on the 2021 Tundra. I have not seen the 2022 specs for turning radius curb-to-curb, wall-to-wall, approach or departure angles. I’m guessing that all have suffered with the new design. The underbite on the front and the thickening of the tail gate (again with no added functionality) both contribute to the increased length. If you look at the exposed chassis and mechanics without the sheetmetal/plastics, cab or bed you can see the frame rails stop at approximately the same location as the intercooler radiators with are mounted high in the grill area. If these were mounted lower that might explain the protruding lower front bumper and facia. But they don’t. I’m interested in seeing what the aftermarket (SEMA 2021) does to the new 2022 in terms of new front bumpers (with and without winches) and new rear bumpers. The lack or recovery points may seen like nit picking but even the folks who use their truck 99 percent on-highway will come appreciate recovery points if they ever slide into a ditch while making a run to the mountains to go skiing. I like the overall design of the 2022. I just think that if Toyota would have retained the length and turning radius specs (maybe they did) of the 2021 Tundra, the new truck might have looked better (to your points) AND be (possibly) more functional on and off road. As it is… I think the front and rear design on the 2022 Tundra would fit more on a Sequoia and Sequoia XL competing against GM and Ford large SUVs. Cheers
How do you hunt trout?! Lol. Jk. Great info tho. I’d rather have the 21 tundra over the 22. My 5.7 sequoia is a 2008 and 204k miles. Fantastic beasts.
I like the tundra more but I want a V8,these turbo V6s aren't my cup of coffee
Yeah well the V8 stinks in the old tundra compared to the V6 options now
@@danielmurray5326 We’ll see in a year or two how that statement holds up.
And the v6 tundra is getting jus 1-2 mpg better than the v8s in the other brands.
Hopefully Nissan stays with the v8 line up and I am sure there sales will increase for sure
The Tundra looks like one of those big plastic power wheels vehicles you’d whip around the neighborhood as a kid. It’s cool but to completely toss the V8 and just make a whole new vehicle irks me. I get the push for better fuel economy but the turbo setup rarely lasts (I.e. all other half ton models). I hope I’m wrong and Toyota quality continues with this model.
And your right there turbo having problems already.
Would choose the Tundra over any other truck...I’d paint the front bumper body color.. the Pro needs 35x12s and a lift but overall I love it... the interior is awesome... and reliability you can count on. I wish they’d kept the V8 as an option but I’m interested to see how the hybrid goes...
I’m looking forward to seeing the new Tundra with a different front bumper and 35s 👌
The Nissan by far wins in looks. I didn’t watch the video so idk bout the tundro.
Toyota couldn’t even get stock on their lots
Couldn’t even make enough with special colors
And Toyota fan base is so dumb they will pay 63k all day at 3-8% interest for this truck
Meanwhile I paid 49k for a fully loaded 21 pro4x at 0% for 84 months no early payoff penalty
It’s got great seats and safety features along with pure v8
@MysteriousOklahoma you do know the off-road world is all over the Nissan motor more than Toyota essentially outside of America if it’s not a hilux or a land cruiser it’s worthless
@MysteriousOklahoma Toyota is made for people that marry their sisters.
I have had both Nissans and Toyotas in the last 10 years.
I will never buy another Toyota. Their drivetrains are great, but the rest of the vehicle just doesn't hold up. Plastics cracking for no reason and body parts falling off. Could be they just aren't designed for cold climate.
Haven't had one problem with my Nissans.
@MysteriousOklahoma Nissan is still killing it In Australia and the patrol when the outback declines the vehicles and the patrol is a shitty vehicle is when I’ll give up on Nissan
@@Darbman62 they are not ment for cold
The frame snapping showed with mud and salt abuse
I give it to Toyota they will get you point A to B but Nissan gets you there also with more creature comforts and better ride
I researched and purchased the titan pro4x
If I were buying today, Titan. After a few years and if all goes well, Tundra.
100% agree, and I am a big Toyota fan. Pro 4x for $50K or TRD Pro for $70K+ also makes the decision easier.
The Tundra probably still won't be able to fit 35" tires without any extra mods so those wheel wells are just laughable.
Not to mention all the trouble you'll likely encounter with the new safety sense 2.5 which is standard on all new tundras. Way too many electronic nannies, not even sure you can permanently disable them. I don't want my truck slamming on the brakes or grabbing the steering wheel!
Titan is vastly better looking. I say this being a Toyota fan boy.
Watching this video while sitting in my 2021 pro 4x Titan.
These maximum towing numbers are just for bragging rights and "best in class" because the trucks people will buy have MUCH lower ratings.
You might want to match what’s being delivered in the voice with what’s shown on the video 🤷🏻
My opinion: to preface, I'm a Ford guy through and through and my 2013 is one of the best looking trucks even over a decade later imo. The Titan's headlights are too soft and basic and don't look aggressive enough but all in all it has the recipe for a truck, whereas the Tundra's front bumper is too bulbous, I dislike the symmetry of the tail lights from the profile and the rear bumper looks too vertical. The new Tundra design is over styled and it doesn't sit right with me.
I’ll buy any one of these if I could afford it but I can’t I’m 83 years old
Toyota nailed the redesign of the Tundra! I wouldn’t change anything about the looks.
To me, this new designed Tundra does not look like a real truck. There's something weird about the front bumper (or lacking of). It looks like a version of a Hylander'ish. I do like the front lights, though. Nothing else.
If you're buying a half-ton truck with coil springs in the rear... you obviously don't need a half ton truck. Every single video of the new Tundra towing it is practically dragging its rear bumper on the pavement!
I disagree on ur opinion on the Titan front ent the 1st generation was more suv look this looks far more like a true truck design
The Titan is the most underrated truck in history! I used to be all in with the tundra, and then Toyota pissed themselves and dropped the V8! Titan all the way 💪
Nissan titans are a beautiful truck but they do not show no commercials on TV
Tundra all day
I have 2016 tundra and I’m buying 2022
The new tundra has already an issue on turbo hehehe I can see a recall in the future 😅
I'll buy the toyota but then I would also buy the titan because it has a v8
There sure are some changes; like failing turbochargers
The Tundra rear bumper is a HUGE fail, not from an asthetic view, but because they removed any step from the corner once the tailgate is lowered. Trucks are for working out of, for hauling toys that need to be tied down... if you can't climb into the bed, what damned good is it? If the Tundra was perfect in every other way, I still wouldn't buy it for that reason, or be forced to buy an aftermarket bumper (or corner drop down steps) so that I can climb into the back. That is the triumph of Chevy and Ford, building steps into the tailgate itself for access. Anyone actually using a truck for more than a fashion statement knows how important this is.
I own an older 03 Tacoma and always try and remember you don't drive a truck while looking at the front, and you don't wind up at the mechanics by looking at the front but to me the Tundra's front is butt ugly. Wouldn't change my mind about buying it but just sayin'. I like the simple clean Titan's lines and look but again would not make my buying decision on looks alone..
There are aftermarket grills that look awesome
Cancelling the V8 is nonsense decision... the tundra is a huge truck.. power to weight ratio, the v8 would have made more sense from a fuel consumption perspective... its gonna rev more with that smaller engine... though it has a turbo I'm thinking it maybe spooling more often meaning more fuel consumption... I stand to b corrected but from just basic fundamentals I see that v8 the best option for that full sized tundra
Toyot has 14 years to design a new truck and they missed big time.. it looks like f150 and silverado 1500 had a baby.. huge miss imo
Titan because V8, why would I want a 2 lesser cylinders in a smaller displacement engine with turbos in a fullsize truck
