    The audio in this video was recorded with in-ear binaural microphones. If you wear headphones, your mind won't be blown, but it will go, "woah."

    Here on TheTopher, I'm known for putting a camera on my face and driving cars. Whether it's about any of my personal cars or reviews on weekly test vehicles, the goal is to give you an idea of what a certain car is like to drive or live with. Most of my videos are filmed in POV, with my clothes on, and (for like the 5th time) with in-ear binaural audio. Which, if I haven't made it clear yet, is why you should wear headphones. Because of the whole "woah" factor. It's there, trust me. Try it, you'll see! Or don't. As long as you whitelist me on your adblocker I'm okay with whatever you do or don't do with regards to headphone usage. That is all. Oh and I guess you should also probably subscribe. Why are you still reading this, you should be watching the video. With headphones! Hah, had to sneak that in there one more time. Later!

    It is the only real half-ton truck in the market. It handles and behaves like a rock solid truck. The TRD Off Road is the best off road truck at a reasonable price. It also handles extremely well in the snow. It is not the prettiest or most tech advanced, but it is sure a pleasure to drive, especially off road. Btw, the 38 gallon tank helps a bunch.

    I've owned three Tundra's and this 2017 review is spot on.Mine is a 2017 Double cab 4/wheel drive that i still own.Other than maintenance, tires and a brake job no issue knock on wood.Doesn't some of the bells and whistles that the other trunk manufacturers do but you can't beat the reliability part!

    just a correction on something said in the video... said it is a double cab... this is a crew max cab, the double cab is a smaller back seat area with a 6.5ft bed vs the 5.5ft bed in this vid... tundras are great trucks, one did over one million miles with very few minor repairs, another towed a space shuttle.

      @azthetiks8378 Před 5 lety

      I test drove one of these yesterday. Yeah thats a great thing to say "if its not broken dont fix it" but how does adding leather seats to a 45k truck break the vehicle? how does having better interior finish mess up the engine? How does putting storage units under the seat destroy the transmission? They could do simple additions to justify the price but why the hell is it 45k if its a model made from 2007? Are you going to pay 45k for a 2007 truck? No, I want to love the Tundra but the lack of basic features to even think of it being that price is ridiculous.

    • @tylerboyer7824
      @tylerboyer7824 Před 6 lety

      Depends on what you need the truck to do and what you want. if you want maximum cargo space with most towing all while carrying 6 people the ford is for you. if you tow occasionally a small boat with your wife and 3 kids then the tundra is a fantastic choice. also consider who will give you the best deal. ford tends to give huge incentives on previous model year trucks or new trucks. toyota gives deals that are ok but not great.

    • @tylerboyer7824
      @tylerboyer7824 Před 6 lety

      the 1794 edition is overpriced for what you are getting. when you have things like denials and f150 platinum and Laramie limited's on the road competing for the same market as the tundra 1794 and platinum. people will generally choose the one with more options. When spending 70 - 80K on a truck you want the one with it all. not to mention Ford and Ram have insane incentives and discounts. Where i live ford frequently gives 10k - 15k off MSRP. And if you go during employee pricing shit you are getting one hell of a truck for a good price. It also may depend on where you live.
