I love how Benny talks so fast and gets on with it, not like some reviewers who blab and linger on and on .....

The Tremor, AT4, or ZR2 are more applicable comparisons. The Tundra Pro isn't anywhere close to the Raptor. Great review as always!

IMO.....Recaros are way better looking and feeling. A comfortable bucket that stands up over time. Worth the premium for sure

Great video! There are several things that the Raptor has that the TRD Pro doesn’t, or does better than the TRD Pro, in my opinion. Here are a few that I personally care about: 4WD Auto, Tow Hooks, Fox Live Valve shocks, bigger tires/lift from factory, better travel, etc. Also, the TRD Pro is a very expensive truck in CO (where I live) because of dealer markups (typically $10K for the TRD Pro models).

Nothing wrong with the Hybrid Engine. This Hybrid has 437HP and 583 ft lbs of torque at a much better fuel economy.

On paper the Raptor is The Truck. Performance wise the Raptor has it. Is it worth 16k over the TRD Pro cost, I think it is.

The side profile and stance of the tundra is not nearly as nice. I don’t mind the front end but that’s about where it ends.

I love Toyotas but just when you think they can't make the front end any uglier, they somehow managed to do it. Fire the design department, please. Spindle is a dirty word.

I've had it since July and at first it was great but a few things have crept up in the past couple of months that has me a little concerned for the future durability. Overall, I am happy with my Pro but my dream truck has always been the Raptor. I am actually going to talk about getting a 2023 Raptor this week. If the numbers work I may be making the switch over to the Raptor...we'll see. But if the numbers don't work in my favor I will still have a very nice truck.

Ya but the raptor will be in the shop way before and more often than the trd period.

So when the folks at Toyota were in a meeting and the decision was made to go with "TRD," how was there not a single person who said, "Wait, we're gonna put 'turd' badges on our vehicles?"

The TRD kit is not available for the TRD Pro trim. The TRD lift kit is for the other trim levels.

Where’s the tow hooks on the tundra? I’ll take the Raptor, it sounds better and looks better in my opinion.

Short and long answer is yes. Yes, it is.

Thanks for sharing I am looking at both of these vehicles in the future. Wonder if Ford will ever make a hybrid Raptor???

I am Toyota’s fan, all my family are driving Camry 2014, RAV4 2016, sienna 2020, they are over 100,000 miles and over 5 years without any problems, still running smooth, and good, paid cheap for maintenance. We haven’t try any US car companies yet, Ford looks good with model F150 Raptor, but I don’t know how much it costs for maintenance and how it is after 5, 6 years later. I am thinking to trade in my car for Toyota Tundra Pro or Ford f150 Raptor.

Is the raptor worth the extra 5k....yes.....
