We take a closer look at the 2021 Toyota Tunda Trail Edition and try to decide if the age of this truck has now become an advantage.

    Can you guys do a video on the Nissan Titan (post 2020 trans and hp boost) refresh and if possible do the SV trim?? It has some new safety standard and tech too. I get the Pro4x is the off roader but the SV is the trim that most people buy so I would love to see it go through the tests you guys put it through.

I got mine with a spray-in bedliner and dealer installed TRD Pro exhaust for under $50k USD out the door! The Ford and RAM, were $10-20k more, unless they were stripped. Tundra all day long.

    I have had all of the big 3. All of them have started having major problems by 100000-130000 miles. I have never heard of any of the big 3 going a million miles. I finally bought a Tundra. Great so far. I don't know what people think is lacking...America is full of weak pussies that need to be pampered I guess. I feel like I am in luxury with an automatic transmission, A/C, power locks and windows....and RELIABILITY. Fuck all the high tech shit, I want a truck that goes 500000 miles with basic maintenance. None of the big 3 have shown they will do that.

I have 250k on the one, with only oil changes and brakes done. 120k on the other with only fluids and brake pads done. We tow 8-10k almost every day, they have never let me down. Also great offroad. Dont be afraid of the payload “limitation”. Add a leaf and you will be pleasantly surprised at what they can handle.

    To be honest they really don't lack. Safety sense with autonomous braking and adaptive cruise is standard. So is navigation. Also has features others don't offer, like the full roll down back glass and the in cab adjustable headlights where you can adjust your headlight level with a thumb wheel on the dash. Toyota has offered this since 2007, the big 3 still don't offer it. It also has a 10.5 inch 4.30 rear end. You can get heated and ventilated seats just like the others as well as a nice JBL system. Only thing the tundra really needs for me is a 360 camera. It may only have a 6 spd but its a bulletproof transmission that will out last the transmissions that the big 3 offer.

The gvwr is payload, passengers and truck. If it says 1000 pounds payload then put 1000 pounds in it. Don't think you need to worry about who's in the cab.

Besides the sucky gas mileage, the truck exceeds all my expectations, especially when towing my 28’ Airstream. I looked at the Big 3 pick ups, but too many bells & whistles and technology. Being an old fart, I enjoy a more basic, reliable, strong V-8 pick up. Guess I’m old school. Thanks again for this video, it confirmed my decision on buying my Tundra.

    Great video. Honest and real. I drive a 2014 SR5 Toyota Tundra 5.7 V8 2x2 and pull a 25fb Airstream trailer. Weight 6,000 pounds and zero issues. On Toyota I have firestone rear air shocks, flow master exhaust, EZ Stop Z36 brakes. Prodigy electronic braking system. I love the Toyota. My buds are all diesel pushers and they even say this Toyota pulls the Airstream with zero issues in power, control, braking, climbing, smoothness and sway. I swapped the stock brakes and did not like the braking power of the truck without towing. I was able to pull truck and trailer with a 15 gallon Titan Sidekick due to 26 gallon tank and drove 275 miles on 101 southbound and got 13.2 mpg. Decent about 1%. On the way back I got 12.2 mpg. I seldom drive with Tow Haul mode on. Climbs yes, and more important on descents for braking and control but most of the time 75% do not need it. This Toyota is a collector and my friends that own there diesels now are paying the big $$$. There is a saying that everyone loves a Diesel until the warranty has expired. the emission standards are choking the Diesels to death. Gas is the new Diesel. I'm a fan of the Diesel but you need money and if your pulling real weight go with that train. This Toyota pulls better than many 2500's that I have tested out including Dodge and Ford. Dodge best braking power and solid torque on the diesel 2500. The gas is clunky and both of those models have real transmission problems. The Ford has power but damn when something goes wrong it is in the shop for weeks at the dealerships. Toyota is made in Texas!! Dodge & Ford I think Mexico.

It's a beast when pulling and has super comfortable seats and wow, the expansive back seat...great for my kids. I also love the sliding rear seat. I believe that they did away with that feature in 2014. It allows you to recline the back support seat for a more comfortable road trip.

I don't tow anything and would probably be using the truck to transport family and things in the bed. Mid sized trucks are too small for me. Honestly I want a fairly reliable truck that will do some light truck things and get decent fuel economy. No need for huge amount of power or wasting gas just driving around

    I own a 2013 Tundra with the 4.6 , sr5-TRD and I love it. Avg 19 highway which is almost as good as my old 04 tacoma -20 mpg. I like the drop in bedliner. Payloads slide out easier and mulch&loam are easier to clean out of the bed. This was my first visit to your channel and I liked it, will check out more episodes. I also would love to see the 4000 miles Labrador trip. Thanks Guys! Great job! Lauren from Western Massachusetts

    Old doesn't bother me, however, there's a few creature comforts I'd like to see added, like a retractable bed step and lighting. I've got a lot of upgrades on my 07 and it's still stupid reliable; I love it like no truck I've had before. Wish it got better mpg's, but comes with the territory. I wasn't expecting miracles with 35s and a 6 inch lift, but I do spend a lot of time at the pump with the 5.7...

    There's a few things you guys could have touched on , like the roll down rear window, electronic adjustable headlamps, the fact that the 5.7 is one of, if not the most reliable V8 gas engines in the segment . Plus the transmission is built by Aisin ( known for building reliable tough transmissions) Also the gearing is 4.30 not 4.10. Which is class leading as well .
