I made it into your video at 5:40 in the white Tacoma. Good to meet you!
As much as people rag on the Tundra, my fathers 2016 with 85K miles with constant hauling has held up incredibly. Longest lasting trucks on the road.
I believe the Platinum would have the puddle lights on the side mirrors. Worth mentioning the 1794 is very close to Platinum except a different color scheme interior.
Where do you get those storage bags that are under the back seat?? I saw them in the video and I really want to buy them. Please help me out. Thank you ✌️
I got the 2021 Platinum primarily because of the front end and the interior was nicer, just in my opinion. Bought it from the same dealership and love it
You forgot power fold-away mirrors on the Platinum, which the Limited doesn't have. the switch is by the mirror controls to the left of the steering wheel.

That is a difference, I noticed the same thing b/c I was looking specifically for that pwr folding button which was not on the limited. Makes a big difference in the car wash, tight parking situations.

Yes it’s worth the $3K w/o a doubt!😂
EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT video! VERY informative and educational. I learned a lot. Keep making those videos. I want to see more. - Bob - Naugatuck, Connecticut
I think the biggest difference is the Platinum doesn't come with a double cab, so no 6'5" bed. Which sucks because I would also prefer the aesthetic of the Platinum and the cooled seats, but I need the larger bed.
Seems to me that because I wanted both ventilated seats and the TRD package, I had no option but to get the 1794. The Platinum doesn't come with the TRD Package and the Limited didn't have the ventilated seats. Not a big chrome fan, but after a year, I am very happy with the 1794 regardless. Plus I got a heck of a deal on black Friday last year. No regrets.

Funny, my name is Eric S also and i have a 2019 Tundra 1794 as well.. with regular oil changes and yearly undercoating, I’m keeping it till the wheels fall off!… TRD dual exhaust, side steps, tonneau cover, i love it! 🥰
Could u do the 2021 tundra special trail edition please I’m considering that as my truck
Thank you Ben
What what was underneath the back seat..maybe a first aid kit ? Thanks for sharing your video

Mirrors identical?? come on, platinum has power folding mirrors, not break away. That is very important to some in tight spots which ANY review should include

Can you please do a comparison between 2020 Ford F-150 platinum vs 2020 Toyota tundra platinum. Also do a vid comparing the Limited trims of both trucks as well.

Beat me to it. This is a big deal to me personally on something not found on the Tundra. Very good review video!
You forgot to mention the fold in mirrors on the platinum!
As others have stated, only the Platinum and 1794 models have power folding mirrors. Why this feature was not added to at least the Limited trim is mind boggling. These trucks are wide and not everyone has 8 foot wide garage doors. I currently own a 2014 GMC Sierra SLT that has more features than the 2021 Tundra Limited. I've wanted to buy a Tundra for years dating back to 2010 but not offering a 6.5 ft bed in the crew max, decent under rear seat storage and power folding mirrors have been my hang ups. Apparently Toyota still doesn't think the 2022+ SR5 Premium or Limited package needs this feature but at least now you can get a 6.5 ft bed in a crew max and rear doors that are not crazy oversized. Guess I'll continue to drive my old truck until I can save up another $20,000 to get folding mirrors.
Suggestion: next time show and compare payload and tow rating of each truck. That will determine the three thousand dollar price difference of which one to get.
You move the camera too fast for your audience. slow it down. great info. great talent
Neither them has the wireless phone charger?
Ok, I just saw the Limited badge , my bad. I have never seen a Limited with steel 18” rims and Bilstein shocks. Also, the decal package on the side of the box is usually on the SR5. Weird as hell!
i got 20 s on my 20 limited ?? i like it
Had to watch for 12 minutes to find out no mention of the big differences (mentioned below), cab and bed options. I really like Toyota, but some of the option packages are driving me crazy. Would like the TRD stuff (Billstein shocks) and the other nice things, but then everything from colors to beds to cabs is limited. Some of it has to do with the frame (wheel base), but some of it makes no sense at all. I feel like I am going to drop $50K and immediately have buyer's remorse because I guessed wrong on the option packages.
I got a limited because I didn't want the sunroof or vented seated the fold away mirrors aren't needed and I really liked the wood grain touch on the dash still got leather and dual climate so not all the bells and whistles but the ones I wanted

Platinum or Pro. Question is 2021 or 2022
Tundra is basic even on top models, just get the base and it will be ok
For me the limited is way better. Thats what I own and wouldn't trade it for anything.

Same here, but as the proud owner of an '01 Tundra Limited with an identical color scheme, it hurt when he called it an ugly mashup😭😥
He moves so fast he misses many of the differences like lighted bed, heated and retractable mirrors, heated and cooled seats etc.

Too bad he didn't road-test these. The Platinum is noticeably louder than the Limited--- just as loud as a TRD Pro, actually. The stitching on the front seats look and feel a little cheap for the extra $, the "AC seats" are barely noticeable even at full-blast, and the honeycomb grill is just plastic. I'll take a quieter, practical, functional and chrome-grilled Limited any day.
