TRD SPORT 5.7L short bed

Best looking truck Ive ever seen. The sport is filthy is graphite gray. LED headlights are exquisite. Coupled with Tundras reputation for durability I knew I had to have this truck even though this is my 1st Toyota. I doubt the 1 star reviewer actually owns a Tundra. Why would you see a short bed you dont like then buy it and then say you hate the truck? Crewmax cab is huge. Im 6'3" and theres a foot of space between the back of my seat and my kids knees. Theres enough space for my 3 kids and dog. The short bed is fine, cabin space is far more important. If i need to haul more than the bed holds I have 2 trailers. The gas mileage is bad but I knew this before I bought It, just like Einstein knew the bed was short. We only drive it around town and the farm, no commuting. It tows 10,000lbs which is plenty for 95% of the people that actually tow anything. I towed a pontoon boat and firewood with a Honda Pilot so the extra tow capacity is just money in the bank. I haven't had it long so I cant review some aspects of it. I dont recommend it because I want to be the only one around in the gray TRD Sport model ,)

Compared the 2019 Tundra and F150. Went with the Tundra primarily because: 5.7L naturally aspirated engine should last longer than Ford’s relatively new turbocharged 6 cylinder engine and Toyota’s reputation for durability. Also appreciate the Tundra’s huge interior, uncluttered instrument panel, very comfortable seating and better grill design. Expect to get many years of happy ownership with the Tundra. Love driving this truck!

Great truck, but Toyota really needs to warranty and replace the"premium" JBL sound system. Absolute junk

I bought a 2018 CrewMax SR5 TRD Sport 4x4 and here are my observations. Yes, it's true, the truck is getting long in the tooth when it comes to technology but you can always buy replacement in-dash systems to get Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Secondly, I strongly disagree with their review of the ride quality of this truck. I think they got paid by Toyota's competitors. This truck rides amazingly well. Very little road noise intrudes inside. It's spacious and the seats are so comfortable. I'm 240 lbs and if it can support my weight well, it will do so for most people. The rear area is cavernous. The A/C is a a single-zone, but if you crack it up to 4/10 it cools the cabin well. I can vouch for that. It's over 105 degrees where I live and it cools the truck really quickly. Another point I'd like to make. I will stake my reputation when comparing a naturally aspirated engine over a turbo or supercharged engine. Engines like those are hard to maintain and when they break, it will cost too much to repair. In addition, a turbocharged engine runs very, very hot. And any metallurgist will tell you that if you expose the engine to high heat over time, it will wear down. A naturally aspirated engine does not have that problem and is built to last. Lastly, the reason why you buy a truck is for work. If you want luxury and up-to-date gadgets, get an SUV. A truck is a utlitarian vehicle. It gets you from A to B and is very rugged. You want these to last. The less electronics, the better - electronics wear out much quicker.

I have owned 6 Toyota 4WD pickups and a Prius for an average of 8 years each and driven them and average of 180,000 miles and never had a breakdown, only needing to do scheduled maintenance on the vehicles. I have also owned Willys, Dodge, Ford, and Chevy trucks and SUV's and they have been far from reliable. My 2011 Silverado has had emissions system problems that have cut short trips on 3 different occasions within the first 25,000 miless and I decided to sell it to buy a truck that would not let me done. After reading about the 2 million Ford trucks with door locks that fail and similar issues with the Ram trucks and even having to switch off the passenger airbag of my Chevy truck with GM refusing to replace the defective Takata activator, it came down to Toyota or Ram. With the ongoing delay of a new truck from Toyota which introduced the current Tundra in 2007, no V-6 engine option, and the need to add after market locking differentials (as they only offer an anti-spin differential that uses the wheel brakes), my next pickup is going to be a Ram 1500.
