Ben - appreciate your videos and your perspectives. Yes, would be great if you got a 2022 Tundra for the channel. Thanks again.

Thanks for your review, Just bought a new Platinum Tundra Hybird and can't wait till it comes in, about 45 days. It will have the air supension.

Thanks, Ben, one of the best 2022 Tundra reviews

Ben does the tundra platinum or 1794 have the universal transmitter for the garage door opener on the visor or rear view mirror or where the dome mirrors location

The one thing I do like is the abrasive bedliner lol

i don't like how the fenders look around the wheels when it is partially blacked out

Toyota built a awesome truck love it I like the black button on the tail light let the tail gate down. Toyota you guys built a fricking cool truck keep it up Toyota

The trucks turning radius got noticeably larger, and windshield visibility got worse then the previous generation and is now harder to maneuver in every environment from small parking lots to tight trails. They shrunk the interior to worst in class, and since the back seat still has a transmission hump it totally exacerbates how much room we lost. And having a flat loading floor in the back makes haul/storing easier when using the back seat, and in the Tundra, the backs seats won't lay flat, so the design and functionality are sub par at best in the back seat so wait till you need to really use the back seats and yiu will realize how Toyota screwed us there. They made the bed smaller and narrower. So they advertise the truck being bigger, but it's a marketing scam as the usable space and functionality is worse then the previous generation. The old truck was horrible for interior/ exterior lighting, well its still piss poor and worst in class, the tail gate / bed is harder to access then the previous generation. And now the hardest bed to access of all beds on the market These are all massive steps. backwards. The bed has a useless 400w plug for Toyotas premiere work truck, but you can get a 1500w inverter in the 2021 Sienna minivan, that's just asinine. Get inside and you will find how poor the design and quality are. Pull up on the seats and you will be shocked out how absurdly cheap they are. The entry handle on the A pillar will rip your skin off your knuckles, so it's completely useless. The crawl control is right every one spills there food and drinks even though they had a ton a dash real-estate to put it someplace functional, but nope, not Toyota. The wireless charger struggles to stay connected and if running navigation on your phone, it won't charge your phone, so that's just gimmicky junk. The payload increase is almost on par with my 2011 Tundra I just sold, so that's embarrassing. The 2022 hybrid got bested by Fords 2021 hybrid, and while it was nominal, Toyota only updates powertrains every 15yrs, so in 2 yrs the powertrains will be worst in class for another 13 yrs and the gas mileage is a completeembarrassment, it barely better than my new 2021 stage 2 whipple aupercharged Roush F150 which is getting a bit over 17mpg in eco mode and my truck makes 775hp 685ft/lbs ....And the list of massive miss fires and poor quality and design are littered through out this whole truck....this guy has no business reviewing cars.

I was offered invoice pricing on a lunar rock limited 2022 tundra. They still selling for 5-10 over other places?

I love driving the new platinum tundra they are sooooo nice

No wheel well liners to protect all that stuff in the shock and transmission area which slows rust and wear

That’s so true

Why does a platinum have so many blank switches? If its the best of the best sbouldnt it have everything?? I can see maybe 2 or 3 because of the stuff the pro has but i saw like 9 blank buttons or switches

So I got the platinum it’s in the wind chill white beautiful truck with options I’ve had it for a couple months, I love it! There is one thing that I do wish they would have not done I’m just the V6 TwinTurbo and that’s the blue stitching inside, although it looks wonderful but I feel like it took away to make it a personal truck from my self. I feel the blue lighting and the Blue stitching should have only been for the hybrid models. It does look great and it’s awesome but they should have kept it only for the hybrid.

All around a solid truck but man Toyota needs to address its payload issue. 1310lbs is pretty weak considering those are around the same numbers as the previous gen.

@voided3

2 жыл бұрын

Agreed, especially considering the high tow ratings in the 10,000-11,000 lbs. range will net you a tongue weight of at least 1,000-1,100 lbs., you basically only have enough payload left for yourself and a cup of coffee. For perspective, we used to have a 2016 Hyundai Tuscon with a 1,250 lbs. payload rating.....

@fouUili684

Yea and I’m sure the hybrid version will be less payload because of the batteries

Not going to lie I absolutely hate how much plastic Toyota uses in their car but they still did a fabulous job on the look of the interior. Also I feel like you’re being biased based off you liking the look but lol some of the comments you made like “listen to the shifter” 😂😂

Nice video. I own a 2014 tundra and I really like it . But the 2022 models are a little cheap. If you notice the blacked out pillows are just black tape. I think they are all like that no matter what model you get. You can peal it off with your fingers.

I have heard there are no recovery points on the truck at all for this model.

The grill still looks absurd to me, way too large and the mustache chrome surround just makes it worse. The overall styling of this truck feels rather ungainly and unfinished. I have no doubt that this truck will be very reliable, once they address the new model issues, but it's not the truck for me. I'm looking at the refreshed Siverado with the diesel.
