This is EVERYTHING a truck review channel should be. Nothing fancy but honest, useful, simple and entertaining! A lot of the other channels talk too much, compare too much as opposed to focusing on the actual vehicle at hand. Towing, off road, quick exterior and interior overview. Thumbs up, pal! Subscribed.
I agree. I like the shorter right to the point type videos...you are right every other review channel goes way into too much detail with interior and exterior crap that nobody cares about. Honestly none of the reviews mean anything on new vehicles because they're new, they're under warranty, anything goes wrong it gets fixed free by the dealer...all I really care about is if something will still be moving on its own power in 10-20 years, so new car reviews are 100% useless for people like me who don't buy new stuff.
I love the rear sliding window personally, it’s unique and helps air out the cab on hot days quite nicely. I love that Army Green color y’all tested, I’m a combat vet so the color resonates. I own a 2017 crew max Tundra that is Inferno colored. Love the color but I agree Cavalry Blue is my favorite! Again it just resonates even more since I was a Cavalry Scout, I think I need one!!!
@@TruckKing no man, thank you for delivering good unbiased content. As the channel grows, you’ll start getting approached by various manufacturers. I can only hope that you remain true. Ronny Dahl and Andrew White (for example) may not have the financial support that that most of the sell outs do, but they have the respect and love of the people which in turn made them legends. Some things are simply more important than money.
That's my favorite part about my 4Runner! Also, it's handy for moving big objects. I was helping my parents move some furniture yesterday, and there was one more piece I want to put in but the hatch wouldn't close. Just rolled the rear window down, and that did the trick LOL.
You guys are awesome with these videos. By far, the best automotive channel ever. I hate to compare but other CZcams channels are so boring with too many bias reviews toward their sponsors. Truck King is very real and unbiased reviews.
Super fun video. Would be excited to see you put a 2020 Ranger through these same paces. Know you did a fair amount on TFL, but this seems like another level. Keep it up TK. These are great.
I prefer the cement color. I have a 2016 trd pro in quicksand and I've never had a single problem with it. I added the firestone airbags to get rid of the squat. I like being able to roll the back window down. I roll all the windows down when I go trout fishing in the summer time. It's nice having all that air come through the cab down here in the southeast.
Hey Man, another great video from you, kindly keep them coming, my color is Quicksand. I totally agree with your Dad 100 % regarding the power train and fuel consumption, I hope Toyota takes his advice, especially with the Diesel engine, it's long overdue.
Following Steven from TFL. I hope your channel does well! Cavalry Blue for sure! Even my wife says how she likes that color when we see a Toyota in it. I love the rear window but I also love a sunroof and window down driving.
Great videos!! There is a switch to the left of the steering wheel for bed lighting. I have this truck and one other pro is it's turn radius is best in class which is great for off road and daily parking.
Followed you over from TFL, great to see you still doing these offroad reviews! Nobody else sends these things quite like you! As far as the TRD color, it's a tough call. My favorites are voodoo, quicksand, and cement. I think they're really only special on the 4Runners though, because on the Tundra and the Tacoma, this year's TRD special color is next year's new color option across the line. On the 4Runner, it's a Pro color, and then it's gone. That said, I think my pick would be a quicksand 4Runner. I never even looked at or cared about 5th gen 4Runners, however the first time I saw a Quicksand 4Runner sitting on my local dealer's lot, I was like wow! yeah, I would totally drive that.
I love my Tundra 4x4. My SR5 crew max has led lights in the bed. I was thinking all the Tundras did. I like the opening rear window. Very good air flow on cool days
I use the rear sliding window for all weather temps. Summer helps filter air, winter I like to put the heater on and bring the window 1/8 down (little crack). Really helps with filtering air in cab.
I get my TUNDRA TRD OFF ROAD on August 15th. I have owned big 3 crap and switched to Toyota in 04. Every single Toyota has been absolutely dead reliable. The best being my 13 TRD SPORT Tacoma. I tow a 5000 pound RV and the Tundra is no worse towing than my Tacoma as far as fuel consumption goes. My favorite color is VOODOO blue but my new Tundra is Barcelona Red because blue is NA for 2020. I expect my TRD OFF ROAD to be a better tow vehicle than the PRO. I may buy an aftermarket rear locker for my truck next year.
They are super reliable which is the appeal. I have had 4. All went well over 200k before I switched to something else with only one ever needing anything other than regular maintenance. Good solid trucks with a great resale. My 2004 TRD Off Road Tacoma Xtra Cab was my favorite although my 83 and my 2007 FJ were a ton of fun also. They all took me to so many amazing places a car wouldn't have. Freedom!
My next truck is probably going to be a Toyota as well. I don't need a full size so I'm probably gonna get a Tacoma. I've owned mostly GM products, but their reliability is subpar.
While I will be the first to note that aside from aesthetic differences, my 07 Tundra and the newest models are essentially the same truck, there is something to be said for reliability. I don't feel like I need any of the fancy options other than adding a backup camera, which I did on my own, but in all the time I've had it, it's never been in the shop. I do my own maintenance, but it's just needed the usual filters, gas and go. Now I've modded mine too, which these trucks are like the lego/glock of the truck world if you love mods. Everybody makes something for a Tundra! I did a 6" lift, 35s, armored bumper, the usual performance mods and it's one of the most fun trucks I've ever owned full stop. Yeah, mpg sucks balls; I get about 12 combined and don't expect much more for my driving style. I wouldn't say no to an 8 speed transmission for highway runs, but I seriously doubt Toyota will keep the 5.7 for the next model update. If you want a V8, get one now brothers!
WIth a camper shell, the full window going down is so awesome. You can sleep on platform with feet sticking through window, you can crawl into cab to drive away sketchy situation, the ac and heater will heat the whole thing fast. Its awesome.
Awesome video! My videos suck when compared to yours - LOL. I have the same truck and love it - it will be collectors item soon when the 2022’s come out.
that rear window (when rolled down along with the 2 front windows) easily eliminates that “wind bass” noise u get that bother your ears when cruising highway speed
Steven Venuto Wish I had the sliding rear window but I’m glad I don’t have it cause everything in my bed blows into truck with the smaller one that just slides left to right.
I have this exact truck. How could liking the rear sliding window even be a debate? It’s awesome and one of the best features of the tundra. Great for long fishing rods, lumber, ladders etc. it’s a great option to have and I love it. People compliment the rear window roll down all the time. Why wouldn’t you want it to slide all the way down.
Love my ‘12 SR5 TRD Off-road. If you need more towing I think the suspension set up on the TRD Off-road trim is a bit stiffer and does really well. I towed my wife’s SUV from Texas to Kansas with the Cruz on 70 mph and it did great. Other than the MPG. 😜
The Tundra Crewmax rear window is a selling point, vs the tiny sliding window on the Ford that they made such a big deal about. The Ford's window looks silly. Also, if you want to tow properly on any truck with over a 5000k pound load, you really need a weight distribution hitch. I'd also recommend airbags if you are concerned about squat appearance. I've had this setup on two different Tundra TRD Pro's and have towed a 7500 lb dry-weight travel trailer about 10,000 miles through out the USA. My whole rig is just around 15,000 pounds fully loaded on that CAT scale. Gas mileage is the only downside on the Tundra or any rig for that matter,
Thanks for a great video, it is great to have an enthusiastic person doing what they love. I have a 2017 1794 and would love to put a PRO suspension in it. How did you find the PRO suspension did on road as far as highway joints and potholes? Do they get transferred to the cabin more than a regular Tundra? As far as the Vid, I totally agree with your POP about the fuel economy and the need for Toyota to get their next engine right, I think that will sway allot of people either way. A positive if they put out something that is modern and reliable, but if it is just a ordinary puffed up 3.5, I think allot of people will move to other trucks. You can only be loyal so long if the manufacturer does not care about catering to the competitive truck buyers. I think I can help you with the rear end locker assessment, In the Toyota The rear is a Limited Slip, it has to slip before the gears can work for the other side. I think this is better than the locker because, in 2wd you can use this more often and it is less intrusive than a locker at speed. Pleased do the same with either a Chevy with limited slip or an older TRD pro with a locker. Cheers-A
We just picked up a 2008 Tundra Crewmax SR5 with the TRD Offroad package and already put 1000kms of the smoothest quietest driving. About 60km of decent offroad use too. That back window circulates air without making wind in the cab so well and allows me to adjust fuel cans for the thirsty girl lmao I am just poking fun, it gets the same mileage as my brother in law and his 2018 Ram 5.7. It could be better obviously but it is an absolute beauty all around.
@@t4thfavor1212 yeah the new f150 hybrid has 24 combined. Yours probably gets like 18-24? The tundra gets like 15. Thats like $3000 per year difference for most people.
Love the rear window able to open it remotely way better than those tiny square ones, one a nice day open it a little open ur driver window n you’ll get a nice n cool breeze
Reasons for a drop down rear window: 1.Drop down window is a must in the 4Runner bc it allows you to carry lumber that is 12 to 16 feet long. 2. Rear drop down window on a Tundra great for when you live in climates that are normally north of 100 degrees. Get in the car 🔥 inferno immediately open all windows, blast AC, let heat escape while doing burn outs to create more turbulent airflow to prevent passing out from heat. This is my routine multiple times of day just to exist in Texas and Florida 3. Rear drop down window on Tundra perfect for camper hardtop shell’s so you have access to the inside of the truck without having to go outside. 4. Love the rear window in the 4Runner for when you have backed into parking space up against a wall, still allows access to the rear of the vehicle 🙏 ✊ 👍
Glad I found this channel when I saw you moved on from TFL. I really enjoy the chemistry you and the old man have. I think the rear sliding window is cool. Don't have to worry about missing when I throw my empty cans out the back. /s. In all seriousness do you get the low pressure "womp womp" noise when just the rear window is open at highway speeds?
I have a Tundra, and I can confirm that there is NO buffeting when you have the rear window open. One of my favorite ways to drive in the summer is with sunroof and all windows (including back) open. Works well for city speeds, it's the next best thing to a convertible. On the highway, if you keep all the side windows closed, but open the sunroof and the rear window about halfway, air gets drawn in through the sunroof and out the back window, a great way to get airflow without being too noisy.
Good review- I wish someone would do a underbelly comparison to this truck and other conventionals. Rear shock placement, rock guards on rear axle ubolts, welded rear axle construction, standard skidplates throughout.This truck (all tundras) are designed to be very effective off-road. Not to mention extremely beefy front end components for a half ton. Rack and pinion steering. These things take abuse and are very low maintenance. These are things that matter in a truck, not whether or not your getting 2 mpg better because your engine shuts down half its cylinders. We have a 2007 and a 2017 for work trucks and they both pass yearly safety with zero issues, do the work very well (Tow 10k regularly) and All we do is regular maintenance. These are awesome trucks, dont let the lack of fancy electronics fool you.
Trailer brakes. You should never tow without dedicated trailer brakes On anything over a few thousand lbs, in my opinion. The brakes on these trucks are greAt though, with large 4 piston brakes up front and big rotors. I think the rotors are about 14.5” on the trucks. I have my trucks registered for 8500 kgs, so legally I can tow/ carry about 5800 kgs. Assuming i dont overload axle weights/payload truck or/trailer. I also have a extra 800lbs of leaf spring in both my tundras (Very cost effective upgrade if you tow a lot)
Trailer brake controller is in a tundra. The brakes themselves need to be on the trailer axles and wired to your 7 prong. Not every trailer comes with brakes
I searched for months for a new all purpose truck and it came down to the the TRD pro and the Pro4x. The main reason I ended up doing the Pro4x was the squat. Our rv has 640lb tongue weight and the tundra was way too low even for a weight distribution hitch. And that was with nothing in the bed and nobody in the truck. The dealer just let me hook it up so I could see. I’m not brand loyal to anyone. I’ve had a couple fords and a Ram and I was actually really interested in a trail boss with the 6.2 but they were really hard to find and didn’t have many discounts. A loaded one was significantly over my price range. After seeing them in person just wasn’t worth going over for.

That rolling rear window is awesome. Totally unique and more practical than the tiny sliding windows.
i believe that window is patented by toyota, thats why other companies dont have that option.
I know the 1st gen titan has the next biggest rear window roll down and surprisenley all explorer sport trac also have it as well
@@ericksanchez7787 Toyota have full back window roll down early 1980.
@@yoteyeet5601 I know with the 4runner have it but I'm saying the titan and the sport trac have the next big roll down windows
Guy at work said he uses his to flip people off
Gonna miss seeing ya on TFL, but glad u r still gonna be making videos and have ur own channel!!
The rear window is one of my favorite things about my tundra, with the sunroof open it’s such a nice uninvasive breeze

the BALLS of the dealerships that lend him these trucks
I wonder if its a tax write-off for marketing. Alternatively, these things are beastly offroad so any dealer that knows tundras wouldnt be too worried
Lol they just clean it off and sell it new. Dealerships don't care about honesty
Then it’s sold as a demo
They're manufacturer demo vehicles that the manufacturers themselves loan out for press reviews... This isn't from the local dealer...
You were the only reason I even watched TFL. I’m so glad you left. Keep being yourself and great things will come your way!

Super fun video. Would be excited to see you put a 2020 Ranger through these same paces. Know you did a fair amount on TFL, but this seems like another level. Keep it up TK. These are great.
I prefer the cement color. I have a 2016 trd pro in quicksand and I've never had a single problem with it. I added the firestone airbags to get rid of the squat.
I like being able to roll the back window down. I roll all the windows down when I go trout fishing in the summer time. It's nice having all that air come through the cab down here in the southeast.

Rear window is awesome. Helps ventilate the truck really fast in summer. Also great for bringing in fresh air without using side windows.

Another great report the Toyota is showing its age will wait the update with interest.
We will watch it’s career with great interest.

I'm just wondering why my 2020 2wd Tundra came with Nitto Ridge Grapplers and this TRD 4x4 came with street tires. It doesn't make sense to me.
I own a 4Runner and the rear window rolling down is awesome...
Yes I’m happy with the back slide down window
Glad I found this channel when I saw you moved on from TFL. I really enjoy the chemistry you and the old man have. I think the rear sliding window is cool. Don't have to worry about missing when I throw my empty cans out the back. /s. In all seriousness do you get the low pressure "womp womp" noise when just the rear window is open at highway speeds?
I have a Tundra, and I can confirm that there is NO buffeting when you have the rear window open. One of my favorite ways to drive in the summer is with sunroof and all windows (including back) open. Works well for city speeds, it's the next best thing to a convertible. On the highway, if you keep all the side windows closed, but open the sunroof and the rear window about halfway, air gets drawn in through the sunroof and out the back window, a great way to get airflow without being too noisy.
That 6 speed transmission 20 years from now will still be working unlike that 10 speed…dreaming I can get one of these trucks someday
Good review- I wish someone would do a underbelly comparison to this truck and other conventionals. Rear shock placement, rock guards on rear axle ubolts, welded rear axle construction, standard skidplates throughout.This truck (all tundras) are designed to be very effective off-road. Not to mention extremely beefy front end components for a half ton. Rack and pinion steering. These things take abuse and are very low maintenance. These are things that matter in a truck, not whether or not your getting 2 mpg better because your engine shuts down half its cylinders. We have a 2007 and a 2017 for work trucks and they both pass yearly safety with zero issues, do the work very well (Tow 10k regularly) and All we do is regular maintenance.
These are awesome trucks, dont let the lack of fancy electronics fool you.
How is the stopping ability of the Tundra when under load? 10,000k is a lot to stop.
Trailer brakes. You should never tow without dedicated trailer brakes On anything over a few thousand lbs, in my opinion. The brakes on these trucks are greAt though, with large 4 piston brakes up front and big rotors. I think the rotors are about 14.5” on the trucks.
I have my trucks registered for 8500 kgs, so legally I can tow/ carry about 5800 kgs. Assuming i dont overload axle weights/payload truck or/trailer.
I also have a extra 800lbs of leaf spring in both my tundras (Very cost effective upgrade if you tow a lot)
Matt Hordyk ...Tow package in Tundra includes trailer brakes, if I’m not mistaken and yes, the leaf spring upgrade is a huge plus.
Trailer brake controller is in a tundra. The brakes themselves need to be on the trailer axles and wired to your 7 prong. Not every trailer comes with brakes
good test!!
Thank you!
Yes I like back window and the army green is good color
The Calico Critters ads make me want to burn down the red roof cozy cottage!
I searched for months for a new all purpose truck and it came down to the the TRD pro and the Pro4x. The main reason I ended up doing the Pro4x was the squat. Our rv has 640lb tongue weight and the tundra was way too low even for a weight distribution hitch. And that was with nothing in the bed and nobody in the truck. The dealer just let me hook it up so I could see. I’m not brand loyal to anyone. I’ve had a couple fords and a Ram and I was actually really interested in a trail boss with the 6.2 but they were really hard to find and didn’t have many discounts. A loaded one was significantly over my price range. After seeing them in person just wasn’t worth going over for.
What is the app you’re using for the 0-60 times? Thanks. Keep up the good work.
Love that rear window
Your dad hit the nail on the head. Toyota needs a diesel. Very informative video. Even though the metric system threw me off. 😂
