It's supply vs demand. If they want to crack down, just build more of the same. It's that simple. However, they won't do that for very a simple reason, it's a halo for the Tundra brand. There's nothing truly extraordinary about these vehicles. A Tundra TRD Pro is just a regular Tundra with some bigger wheels and suspension, it's then branded and marketed to hell. They could easily meet demand by building more. They won't do that because it's a halo model, which generates showroom traffic and boost sales of budget models.

You missed a great opportunity to showcase the automatic backup system. It is perfect for boat launches. All you do is line up your trailer, engage the system, and it'll back you up in a straight line regardless of how the truck is oriented. I find it to be a very useful feature for situations like this and campsites and other areas where you're backing into a spot with a trailer.

The auto leveling suspension is a neat idea, but another high tech thing to fail. And when it does, it hinders ride quality, and if towing.., I would think would make towing impossible. Everybody is more concerned about having one more feature than the next guy, than just having a reliable truck. All these trucks are man made which means there is an inherent risk of breakdown and/or failure. But when you add all these extra things in, you increase this risk 10 fold. I have seen it over and over. I am fleet manager (amount other things) for more that 40 vehicles. They are traded at about 120k miles. I will no doubt steer away from anything GM… I am about sick of paying for stupid repairs on f150 with eco boost.

While this truck might be quite capable of pulling that boat, it will not last as long with that little Turbo V6 under the hood. Great if you're only leasing. Turbos run hotter and burn up sooner. I'd much prefer the last model with the NA 5.7 liter V8.

Nice looking truck for sure but Toyota needs to offer a proper low range with locking front diff , full under body protection and yes gm has the better screen and electronics I think they just announced too that prices are going up for 24 years more unaffordable over priced pickups and with the avg interest rate for 60 mos at about 7% plus. No bueno

I think the only thing it's really missing is the onboard 2.4kw inverter that Toyota's other hybrid max powertrains now have.
