I'm an actual owners of the tundra trd pro and I LOVE IT... for me is orange, some people see it red in pics or videos but for me is orange.. I work offroad all the time from 14 to 16 hrs a day(130 to 190 miles) and this is an excellent tuck for it.. The only down that I can say is the mpg. I get from 13 to 13.5 a gallon I hate Toyota, I always have but this is just an amazing truck, a truly all terrain truck..
I believe this is the first actual review of yours that I've watched and I must say I like your approach. Especially the details under the hood and the comments about the ease of maintenance.
Wow! This is depressing. This Tundra is light years ahead of my 2001 Tundra Limited TRD. I've logged 179,000 trouble-free miles on mine, with only expenses being maintenance and gasoline. My Tundra's been a real workhorse and serves me well. However, this new Tundra has left me drooling. Soooo much bigger with so many modern touches. I could never afford a $46k MSRP Tundra, although it is gorgeous. Nice job, +Engineering Explained. Thanks for the review and the ride!
Absolutely fantastic review of this truck. I love the new camera angles you used. I also like that you mix up your reviews with a different type of vehicle, it keeps it very interesting as a subscriber.
such a nice truck. I keep watching reviews of toyota, and everyone always comments how reliable they are. I think from now on im going to be buying toyota products. I did some research on them last night, turns out they are made in America, and they have the most parts produced in America. I think its safe to say that toyota is more domestic than FORD - DODGE - GM. I think i will be looking at toyota from now on.
That’s what I did and ended up buying a 2020 trd pro. You really want a Japanese vehicle, made in Japan, by the Japanese. That’s the best you can get. Americans don’t take pride in their work or craftsmanship like the old days. The Japanese do it better now
I'm so happy this review is finally out. My friend has a Toyota Tundra, and it feels so comfortable compared to my Nissan Armada. I fell in love with this car. I really wanna try this car in the desert here.
Great review! I love your dry humor and your delivery without missing a beat, it's great. Also, I'm in love with the truck! It sounds amazing and looks great too.
I need to clone myself haha. I have plans, just lacking in time. I'm hoping to do some stuff this summer. I've been traveling a lot and my garage is not attached to my apartment, so it makes filming a long tedious process. But I hear the voices!
You never mentioned that this truck has 4 piston monoblock front calipers, which is what gives it such good braking ability. Toyotas are also the only trucks on the market with 4 piston fronts as well.
I was expecting or hoping that you would go into some depth of the suspension setup, and possibly go into more detail about the other features associated with its all-terrain capabilities. Also I'm not sure whether it was because you hadn't really had a huge amount experience with off road driving and were concerned about damaging the truck, but I think you could have tested its off road capabilities a little further, on some more difficult terrain.
Vance Dunsworth Isn't that a good thing? I remember jeeps having the worst reliability and longevity, unless you are going back to the very old ones 80s and 90s which were built like a tank.
I just don't like the v6 engines and the look.. I don't know the specs on the post 2006 models but I know it has a weaker engine compared to the inline 6 4.0
It is proven that whoever buys a Tundra has a higher IQ than the other buyers. Ask anyone about their Tundra and they'll say "It has this much horsepower, this much torque, it can tow/haul this much" But ask anyone about their RAM, Chevy, or Ford trucks and they'll say "UH UH Duh Ugh, ITS 'MADE 'N 'Murica, DUH HEE HEE HEE"
Mohammad Sadiqi Ford and Chevy trucks tend to be very good bang for the buck; better than Toyota anyway. That might result in a lot of hollow-headed idiots but it's all about your priorities. Want something with raw power and can take a beating? Go American. Want something family-friendly that absolutely refuses to die? Go Japanese. Want something comfortable and fancy? Go European. That being said, comfort and luxury isn't really something that belongs in trucks, and that's probably why you never see European models (and also why Europeans think Americans are so weird liking big vehicles).
Mohammad Sadiqi They don't last as long as Dodge, and Ford. My grandpa still has his ford from the 80s. The thing runs amazingly, no frame rust or anything. My neighbor had a tundra for 5 years, he said it was great until it hit that 5 year mark. There are a lot of 10 -20 year old fords and dodges still in the road. I don't see any toyota trucks from the 90s on the road ever.
Great review. I enjoyed the off-road segment and would really like to see that as part of all your reviews on cars as well. There are many times that a car is driven off-pavement for camping and similar activities and it would be nice to see that aspect on all vehicles. Also, I'm not sure what it would take, but it would be useful to get an idea of how accessible it is for major component changes and maintenance beyond an oil change. As always, great video! #offroadmustang
I only plan on doing the offroading bit with cars designed for it. It requires special permission and doesn't necessarily make sense for commuter sedans. But glad you enjoyed the segment and hopefully I'll have some future vehicles to take out there!
You don't mention that this truck won the stock class of the Baja 1000. The only factory team to finish the race. The no locker is a bummer, but you would normally get rid of the IFS, and just throw twin lockers in front and rear with a regear to 5.29s SAS, or a long travel kit.
The lack of locking diff is disappointing. They should at least have it as an option. You can't call a vehicle an offroad performance vehicle, and then put automatic brake management rather than a locking/limited slip diff.
Unbearable Pain well no fake trucks. All the real trucks have manual options. Those things called trucks that don't are just cars. To be honest. I don't think the tocoma needs much changing. If they get it to never ever rust then that's about the only change it would ever need.
Trucks are built not bought first off. And it only makes more sense to lock up the front anyway, that's where the weight is at, keep the limited slip in the rear if I wanted to lock out my axles I'll contact ARB
Great Review! One thought are they actual bead lock rims ( or just made to look like it) I only ask because I believe Nissan has a similar offroad truck passage with actual bead locks... no other truck that I know of offers such a feature (not even domestics... except the ford raptor)
Looks like a toyota raptor. I like it. The last generation tundra TRDs didn't have close to the aggressive look, suspension, and tires that this one has.
The lack of steering feel may also be from the A/T tires i feel like. I drive an F-150 for work, same body style as that Tundra (4 door crew cab and short bed) and it had street tires. Steering feel is not like a car's but i could still feel it. Now it has BGF A/T tires and the steering feel is significantly lower but dirt road control is significantly higher. Just a thought.
Why are trucks so damn expensive nowadays? $46k? The sad part is that is much cheaper than a Ford Raptor. With that money you could go ahead and buy an Audi, BMW, or Lexus. Trucks are meant to be cheap and utilitarian, not land yachts that can go off-road.
Fraser Davidson totally agree, people are just buying an image! There was a study done in my area last month of new vehicle sales.....67% were trucks! Look at every drive way in the CITY and you see trucks....When will people start realizing the bigger is never always better.
MechRider89 I totally agree. 90% of the population could live comfortably with a midsize sedan, or even better a wagon. It drives me nuts when they think they need a chevy 2500 4x4 to take the kids to school because it snows. Even worse are the ones with browning stickers on their trucks, that get squeamish around firearms.
well the utilitarian type ones are still decently priced, our fleet uses Ford F150s and they are usually about $20-25k, these are the standard bare bones ones. But you go the king ranch/3500/TRD models they are insanely priced and most of the people that buy these never use them for intended purpose.
Not all trucks are expensive. This is the most expensive truck Toyota makes, so of course it's going to be. You can find plenty of trucks starting at like 20k and some really capable and good ones at 30k.
Engineering Explained I have never owned a 4x4 vehicle, but I have been told that you shouldn't engage 4WD for long periods of time or on pavement because the front wheels turn at a different RPM than the rear wheels. Is that true?
sharkheadism Comes down to locked differentials. If you have locked diffs all around, you're correct, you don't want to drive it on pavement as it will bind the drivetrain. Typically this will just result in extra tire wear, but it does put a lot of added stress on the system.
sharkheadism My 2015 Tundra 2X cab SR5 4x4 manual says to drive with 4wd engaged at least 10 miles a month to keep the lubrication distributed. Doesn't say on or off road at all.
cordis diee So real men drive Toyotas? I see, that was news to me. If you really believe that pollution is good, explain this: goo.gl/QPDRm1 And this: goo.gl/2cP5gd I could go on. Oh, and don't give me that crap about EVs polluting more than other cars. 9 of 10 scientific studies shows that is wrong, and as more and more solar and wind power is introduced, it becomes even more so. The last 1 has in every single case I have seen been funded by big oil. Yeah, they can be trusted in this matter, right?
kodez79 i actually like electric vehicles a lot, but not for the reason you do, i like the fact that they can provide their maximum torque at 0 rpm, i like the fact that they allow for a much quieter ride. but let's not fool ourselves, if one day EVs were to completely replace internal combustion engine vehicles, that is, be mass produced, along with their heavy metal batteries and other such processes involved, we wouldn't be eliminating the problem of polluting the earth, even if by then thorium nuclear plants were the main source of power, we'd essentially be shifting the problem from an air pollution one to a soil pollution one (which in my opinion is much much worse since it can take decades to reverse, and we'd essentially be contaminating the integrality of our food along with destroying ecosystems) ...so instead of focusing on that, let's focus on expanding beyond the horizon of our planet.
Some trucks seem to be getting incredibly expensive. I think when you compare it to the Raptor it makes it look well priced. I don't think the price is unreasonable for what you're getting.
khaled webster It depends on what you think. This tundra is just like a regular tundra but has better shocks, tires, exhaust and some different aesthetics. It is almost the same price as a limited tundra which has a nice interior. Yes and no depending on what you like.
I think Toyota needs a grab handle for the driver side and optional lever 4wd shift. like the 4 runner has. would be quicker engagement. I hate my push button 4wd in my tundra!
Awesome review. One question. I have one just like that and I have never been able to use the remote start. Is it standard in all trd pro models? I have the same remote and I am following the instructions by the reviewer (which are very clear) and it have never work in mine. 🤷🏽♂️
Is there a way on the newer Tundras to have a middle seat instead of the center console and the shifting there? On my 2012 Tundra I can easily fit 3 people in the front and 3-4 people in the back row. I made a mistake on buying my 2012 Tundra crew max 4x4 really basic. I'd want a more luxurious Tundra with the TRD Off-Road package, leather seats, and the touchscreen. My local Toyota dealer has the Tundra limited edition with the TRD off-road package and everything I'm looking for. The only thing it's currently in transit and it won't be here until later this week. My other option would be a Silverado.
Those aren't the wheels and tires the Tundra Pro comes with. From the factory it comes with 18's and Michelin AT2's which will make it ride smoother but not as good off road. In the video it has the wheel/tire package from the previous model rock warrior package.
Thanks for sharing. I a big fan of trucks, had a Nissan Titan Nismo Edition, and now a Dodge Ram. But because of fuel costs where I live I am thinking of getting a Tacoma. Any thoughts? Would be great if you can do a video specifically dedicated to trucks and different technologies that different companies are implementing. For some reason all the bigger sellers are switching to V6 engines that put out the same HP and torque at half the fuel consumption. Cheers buddy.
***** yeah I didn't say they would have the reliability of a Toyota lol. I just said good for fuel economy. That said a lot of the newer diesels are getting very good mpg numbers. Obviously not if you get on it or haul anything, but everyday driving looks good. Although the diesels are going to be significantly more expensive.
Hi there, I was wondering if there any possibility of you making a review video of the TRD Pro 4Runner? I only ask because I am suck between the TRD Pro 4Runner and a Wrangler Willys.
Hi there EE, Nice review. the auto LSD is interesting ,lots of vehicles are using this, perhaps saves them money on not fitting limited slip diffs and rely on software to control the brakes instead. subaru has gone this option and it has increased their off road capability using VDC and x drive on the later model foresters (soft off roaders not real off roaders) so much it can pass the diagonal test which many hard core 4x4's couldn't pass. do you guys get the 200 series land cruiser in the states? that is a very capable off roader that uses auto lsd's with great success. another good off roader is the mitsubishi pajaro turbo diesel
I'm an actual owners of the tundra trd pro and I LOVE IT... for me is orange, some people see it red in pics or videos but for me is orange..

6:51 I thought he was gonna take out that family lol
This guys takes the in-depth review to a whole new level by explaining more where it matters haha
You seem to live the perfect Engineer's life lol. Great video!
Life is good! :)
Would you suggest I get a 2015 Corolla to put in the centre compartment?
hahahaha
lol
😂
I'm so happy this review is finally out. My friend has a Toyota Tundra, and it feels so comfortable compared to my Nissan Armada. I fell in love with this car. I really wanna try this car in the desert here.
One of the best exhaust notes of any V8 because of that TRD dual exhaust! I want one of these in 10 years!
Man, your camera work looks very professional. loved the Offroad part!
TheRomichou Love hearing this, as a total amateur. :)
This is your best review yet!!!!
TRD best off road truck ever!
Great review! I love your dry humor and your delivery without missing a beat, it's great. Also, I'm in love with the truck! It sounds amazing and looks great too.
Excellent truck, and excellent exhaust note!
"probably fit a smaller car in there" I'm dying lmaoo
Great review as usual.
I am really looking forward to your Integra videos. When should we expect those?
I need to clone myself haha. I have plans, just lacking in time. I'm hoping to do some stuff this summer. I've been traveling a lot and my garage is not attached to my apartment, so it makes filming a long tedious process. But I hear the voices!
Engineering Explained Breathe....
one of the best informative clips about this truck 👌
I really like the way you review cars ... keep up handsame
You never mentioned that this truck has 4 piston monoblock front calipers, which is what gives it such good braking ability. Toyotas are also the only trucks on the market with 4 piston fronts as well.
Awesome truck, seriously considering it...absolutely great presentation on the most important features bro! A+
I was expecting or hoping that you would go into some depth of the suspension setup, and possibly go into more detail about the other features associated with its all-terrain capabilities.
Also I'm not sure whether it was because you hadn't really had a huge amount experience with off road driving and were concerned about damaging the truck, but I think you could have tested its off road capabilities a little further, on some more difficult terrain.
I like how you are expanding the vehicles you review. I would also love to see a review for the Jeep Wrangler.
God the new wranglers are... 😖 not like they used to be.
Vance Dunsworth Isn't that a good thing? I remember jeeps having the worst reliability and longevity, unless you are going back to the very old ones 80s and 90s which were built like a tank.
Papaya Man Are you tying to say that 80s/90s jeeps are old? the best jeeps were in the 50s and 60s.
I just don't like the v6 engines and the look.. I don't know the specs on the post 2006 models but I know it has a weaker engine compared to the inline 6 4.0
William McClanahan Haha...I don't know about those, never owned one but you are right
First off I love your videos. Secondly, what resolution and fps are you shooting in? Keep on making awesome videos!
MonkeyofAwesome Most videos are 1080p/30fps. Some are shot in 4K/30fps, but it doesn't seem necessary yet so most will be 1080.
Thanks.
They made it like Texas big and tuff
I love this review. A bit of humor and showing that the offload development actually works.
It is proven that whoever buys a Tundra has a higher IQ than the other buyers. Ask anyone about their Tundra and they'll say "It has this much horsepower, this much torque, it can tow/haul this much"
But ask anyone about their RAM, Chevy, or Ford trucks and they'll say "UH UH Duh Ugh, ITS 'MADE 'N 'Murica, DUH HEE HEE HEE"

Mohammad Sadiqi Plus fords and dodges can take beatings and still go, toyotas are too delicate.
Mohammad Sadiqi hahahaha, love your comment, i guess i have a higher IQ lol, i own a 2003 tundra and an older 89 that still runs great
Nice review, Everything was spot on about this truck!
I love my 2015 Large Grey truck.
I like how your hands are in place when turning! 9 and 3 ! :)
Great review. I enjoyed the off-road segment and would really like to see that as part of all your reviews on cars as well.

Light off-road, No point in damaging the vehicle. Just thought I'd say that before someone else did
I only plan on doing the offroading bit with cars designed for it. It requires special permission and doesn't necessarily make sense for commuter sedans. But glad you enjoyed the segment and hopefully I'll have some future vehicles to take out there!

Finally! The video review I was waiting for!
Truck looks nice.
Love the truck...and your review!
I bet most of these will never leave the road
+Jack Toff yeah at least you get to feel manly and country
Nice review as always. Could you review the Kia Optima Hybrid at some point? For a hybrid, it's a really nice sporty car.
love this car
now if i test drove the truck, it would be through desert with 5 mpgs lol
cool review, its something different. id like to see a review on the 2016 tacoma, and also one explaining the atkinson cycle engine with d-4s
awesome!
Sorry Planet XD. Love my Tundra.
You guys are lucky with a 40k to 50k price tag. Here in Australia they are priced from 105k for SR5 and 120k for a Platinum.
The lack of locking diff is disappointing. They should at least have it as an option. You can't call a vehicle an offroad performance vehicle, and then put automatic brake management rather than a locking/limited slip diff.
Yeah,that makes it kinda a poser truck
SuperDeadNoob the suspension looks great, but the diff not so much.
Unbearable Pain well no fake trucks. All the real trucks have manual options. Those things called trucks that don't are just cars.
To be honest. I don't think the tocoma needs much changing. If they get it to never ever rust then that's about the only change it would ever need.
well either way, it still sends power to the wheel with more grip. though a locking diff would have less to go wrong
Trucks are built not bought first off. And it only makes more sense to lock up the front anyway, that's where the weight is at, keep the limited slip in the rear if I wanted to lock out my axles I'll contact ARB
You should give classes. Probably best teacher there could be for this....
Wide range of cars ! Just curious if you had any plan to test the latest Subaru Forester XT?
Great vid!
I love how seriously you mentioned fitting a smaller car in the centre console hahaha
Awesome reviews, may I ask how you end up with the vehicules? Do you ask for them or do they come to you?
The closed captions are actually quite accurate
That's surprising haha
Papaya Man right? youtubes stepped up their game
Nice truck. Wish I could afford one
Great Review! One thought are they actual bead lock rims ( or just made to look like it) I only ask because I believe Nissan has a similar offroad truck passage with actual bead locks... no other truck that I know of offers such a feature (not even domestics... except the ford raptor)
Do the taco supreme next
Looks like a toyota raptor. I like it. The last generation tundra TRDs didn't have close to the aggressive look, suspension, and tires that this one has.
Drove it in snow?? EngineeringExplained it's spring time!!!
i really like the review, nice clear explaination
The lack of steering feel may also be from the A/T tires i feel like. I drive an F-150 for work, same body style as that Tundra (4 door crew cab and short bed) and it had street tires. Steering feel is not like a car's but i could still feel it. Now it has BGF A/T tires and the steering feel is significantly lower but dirt road control is significantly higher. Just a thought.
Also it only has a 5.0L engine but gets about 15.8 mpg mostly highway so that 5.7L is not doing bad.
I laughed so hard at the beginning of the video
I love that video and u should make one complitly off road with a full cab if grown men to see how it hadles and now im going to try to get that truck
jose lamb I did have three men in it for all of the GoPro shots. The outside shots had two in the vehicle. e
That's how I feed my eel
...nice review
great presentation, it just comes down to how much cash do you have in the bank to own something like this.
Why are trucks so damn expensive nowadays? $46k? The sad part is that is much cheaper than a Ford Raptor.

might as well review a duramax next
Someone, please lend this dude a Tesla Model S P85D! If you come to Norway, I will let you drive mine =)
+kodez79 why would you watch this video then? this video is intended for real men, not tesla-driving hippy planet-freaks pseudo-males.
cordis diee So real men drive Toyotas? I see, that was news to me.
If you really believe that pollution is good, explain this:
goo.gl/QPDRm1
And this:
goo.gl/2cP5gd

I'm a Chevy guy and I love this truck Ted pro fucking bad
"Sorry planet" lol
That steering response, kinda like playing driving game on PC with keyboard and low FPS :v... Btw, can you review cars that are not for NA?
great review!! 👍
r thevoicekifsleba
thevoicekidsf lebanon
haha gotta love the begining
You should do the fiesta ST!
This BAT gets better MPG than my 2014 Q50.... I'm currently avg 15.2 mpg.
jZizzles Yikes!
Supercharge it I average 18-20 highway
do a TRD pro Tacoma!
Im a huge toyota fan and i love the review, but i have one question do you think its worth the price? I do but i want to know your opinion.
Some trucks seem to be getting incredibly expensive. I think when you compare it to the Raptor it makes it look well priced. I don't think the price is unreasonable for what you're getting.
khaled webster It depends on what you think. This tundra is just like a regular tundra but has better shocks, tires, exhaust and some different aesthetics. It is almost the same price as a limited tundra which has a nice interior. Yes and no depending on what you like.
I think Toyota needs a grab handle for the driver side and optional lever 4wd shift. like the 4 runner has. would be quicker engagement. I hate my push button 4wd in my tundra!
Tundra pro should’ve kept 17 inch wheels on the TRD Pro lines.. with bigger tires
Awesome review. One question. I have one just like that and I have never been able to use the remote start. Is it standard in all trd pro models? I have the same remote and I am following the instructions by the reviewer (which are very clear) and it have never work in mine. 🤷🏽♂️
I have to say i've always wondered why you give Coefficient of Drag but not the frontal area of the vehicle?
Is there a way on the newer Tundras to have a middle seat instead of the center console and the shifting there? On my 2012 Tundra I can easily fit 3 people in the front and 3-4 people in the back row. I made a mistake on buying my 2012 Tundra crew max 4x4 really basic.

The only thing it's currently in transit and it won't be here until later this week. My other option would be a Silverado.
Those aren't the wheels and tires the Tundra Pro comes with. From the factory it comes with 18's and Michelin AT2's which will make it ride smoother but not as good off road. In the video it has the wheel/tire package from the previous model rock warrior package.
Thanks for sharing. I a big fan of trucks, had a Nissan Titan Nismo Edition, and now a Dodge Ram. But because of fuel costs where I live I am thinking of getting a Tacoma. Any thoughts? Would be great if you can do a video specifically dedicated to trucks and different technologies that different companies are implementing. For some reason all the bigger sellers are switching to V6 engines that put out the same HP and torque at half the fuel consumption. Cheers buddy.
If you really want fuel economy and a truck. The ford ecoboost is a good option.
***** yeah I didn't say they would have the reliability of a Toyota lol. I just said good for fuel economy. That said a lot of the newer diesels are getting very good mpg numbers. Obviously not if you get on it or haul anything, but everyday driving looks good. Although the diesels are going to be significantly more expensive.
What about that new Chevy colorado? Looks fresh in a stale segment
***** the frame will rust and crack in half before anything fails catastrophically.
My only issue with the Tacoma is that its fuel economy is not that great; the 2015 F150 has better mileage. Weird right?
Hi there, I was wondering if there any possibility of you making a review video of the TRD Pro 4Runner? I only ask because I am suck between the TRD Pro 4Runner and a Wrangler Willys.
Looks like the current model year
RED!
Nice truck, but i think the Raptor is the monster
Ali Kamal the so called monster got raped badly by the TRD PRO in the stock full class in the Baja 1000, the raptor broke down
Yea i saw that
Hahah didn't need to take the tires off lol
"Sorry Planet" *Gets into WRX STI that gets 17mpg*
23* thank you very much! (That's my average at least).
Engineering Explained Nice man! my 02 TrailBlazer gets 23 with a 4.2L Straight 6(Also Engineering Explained replied to me *Fan Girls*)
Pretty much what i get with my 2012 STi lmao
Hi there EE, Nice review.
the auto LSD is interesting ,lots of vehicles are using this, perhaps saves them money on not fitting limited slip diffs and rely on software to control the brakes instead. subaru has gone this option and it has increased their off road capability using VDC and x drive on the later model foresters (soft off roaders not real off roaders) so much it can pass the diagonal test which many hard core 4x4's couldn't pass.
do you guys get the 200 series land cruiser in the states? that is a very capable off roader that uses auto lsd's with great success.
another good off roader is the mitsubishi pajaro turbo diesel
Looks like an LS with the cover off.
Nice but man 46k is a lot. Truck is to pretty to put it to work.
Yes, wide too which made me nervous about scraping the sides off-road. Had to find some wide trails.
Still NO locking rear differential or even a limited slip....That's a NO GO all the way.
I'm pretty sure they have LSD
You should be trying to replace top gear lol Need to drive the Regera R
16.1 mpg with less than 2k miles. Wow I got 12.6mpg with over 3k miles. That is because I haul around a bass boat every time I use it.
Hey bro does it come with a backing up camera or a reverse camera
I didn't think the 2015 TRD Pro comes with the early Rock Warrior rims and tires. Looks like someone changed the rims and tires on that 2015 tundra.
Why on earth don't they offer this truck with a rear locking diff?!
