Why in a car park ?

Disappointed to see that Australia will have the same issue as the Tundras in the USA: no front tow hooks. However, those who can afford the tundra in Australia and those who will use the Tundra for its purpose will be able to afford aftermarket winches and tow hooks, so for the rest of the folks, the Tundra will be fine even without tow hooks.

Hello from the Caribbean. Great video. Was the conversion for the steering wheel done in the US or Australia

Australian Toyota Tundras are converted to right-hand drive locally by Walkinshaw Group in Melbourne, Victoria.

It's such a pretty ute

Saw one today driving through Bacchus Marsh. It was HUGE.

It’s smaller than my 2019 Tundra my 5.7 v8 does drink gas but I’m an American so I don’t care about fuel economy.

Looking at this in a rear view mirror you will mistaken it for a heavy duty truck

@braalo07 you might as well be driving a semi at 25 lt per 100KM is pathetic.

Since all of the current Australian videos are saying the same thing, I guess Toyota Oz have told you guys it is a 3.5 ltr. It is actually known in the states as a 3.4 ltr (3445 cc) engine.

Yeah you could pretty much round down or up at that point.

A nice truck and the conversation seems well engineered. The fuel economy could be better though with 25 MPG combined expected but not achieved. 😎🇦🇺

Here is the full size US pickup trucks are great. Comfortable for the families and car seats, tow the fishing boat on the weekends, and throw the hockey gear in the bed for the kids practice

Looks like quite a low car like driving position, unlike the RAM, which is more truck like. But that might just the way he's sitting..

It's too small to qualify for the more relaxed (EPA) diesel regulations for vehicles with a GVWR/GVM over 8,500lbs. Diesels in small vehicles are difficult in the US.

You poor buggers. My limit tundra in Canada cost 68K brand new in 2022. Why are cars so expensive in Aus?

Any car over $68k in Australia incurs a luxury vehicle tax of 33%, which was put in to help our local car manufacturing. Except that stopped in 2016, but the tax didn't. Go figure

Maximum tow ratings are always with nothing in the vehicle except a 150lb driver. This class of pickup, and anything smaller, isn't really considered to be a great tow vehicle in North America. We tend to go up to the class above Full-size Pickups called Large Pickup Trucks (GVM/GVWR over 8,500lbs). Toyota doesn't compete in this segment. The Tundra, F150, Ram 1500 and GMC/Chevy 1500 are all sprung for comfort rather than maximum payload.

These cars are getting bigger and bigger where are they going to park lol

No one cares about fuel consumption. When they've got those big trucks cause you've got big money

I read that Australia are looking to more strict carbon emissions effective 2030. I wonder if that will deter its target market for these big petrol guzzlers. I don’t know what it is, but I would love one haha, regardless of how impractical this would be for my usage 😂

It is an entry level full size and is sprung for comfort. If you want more payload you can opt for a larger pickup all the way up to the class topping F350 at up to 8,000 lbs/3,625 kg of payload.

If you want more payload, get a truck licence and do a GVM / GCM upgrade. Then enjoy being limited to 100kmph on the freeway, having to be 0.00%BAC and all the other headaches involved once you pass that 4.5T GVM.
