2018 Toyota Tundra SR5 FFV 4dr Double Cab 4WD LB (5.7L 8cyl 6A)
Owned a 2008 single cab Tacoma 2.7 5 speed. Amazing little truck! Traded to a 2016 Tacoma DCSB TRD OffRoad before trading it for my 2018 Tundra DCLB TRD OffRoad. The 16 Tacoma was a great vehicle and light pick-up truck, also amazing off road lacked in towing power and trans down/up shifted to much. I decided to go to the Tundra for the room and power. The tundra gets the same MPG that … my Tacoma here in the mountains of Southwest Virginia. 15 to 16 MPG. On the interstate the Tundra is flawless. Shift points and Power where they need to be. The ride is great for me I have no complaints whatsoever. 17 to 18 MPG Interstate. I detail vehicles for a side job, I deal with a lot of newer trucks and SUVs. I can tell you first hand that Toyota uses great quality stuff in their vehicles compared to other brands.

Which Tundra does Edmunds recommend?
Picking a Tundra is all about what kind of truck you need and the features you want. But if you're having a hard time choosing, maybe go with the SR5 model with the TRD Off-Road package with options (the one that includes the SR5 upgrade package) for off-road parts that won't interfere with its towing and hauling capabilities.
Full Edmunds Review: 2018 Toyota Tundra CrewMax Cab
Driving
With its strong V8, the Tundra offers legitimate performance. It's quick, and it feels capable of hauling itself through any scenario a real truck user might encounter.
Comfort
The Tundra, when equipped with the 5.7-liter V8, lacks ride comfort relative to competitors who don't couple a towing package to their biggest engine as Toyota does. The smaller 4.6-liter V8-equipped Tundra gets softer springs.
Interior
The interior of the Tundra's 1794 model is covered in perforated, stitched leather. These are among the nicest materials we've seen in a full-size truck.
Utility
The Tundra utilizes its space well. There's a massive center console big enough for multiple average-size laptops. The door pockets are large and fitted for large drink containers. The Tundra's tow ratings are generally lower than key competitors'.
Technology
The Tundra is equipped with Toyota's Entune system, which when combined with an app on your phone, allows you to integrate various systems. It's OK, but rival infotainment systems are easier to use.
