In my opinion this truck competes with the over priced and over hyped Ford Raptor for way less money. For me Tundra TRD Pro is the real King of Baja. Beautiful truck enjoy.
@@travisedwards9983 How? It has lower tow capacity, payload, mpg, and reliability. The raptor is literally just an overpriced toy that dumb people who don't actually need a truck buy
I'd love this 2019 TRD Pro model of the Tundra... For economical reasons, I'd buy it in 6 years. Im in no rush to own her yet.. But its tempting. Good review, im sold on this truck.
Such an beautiful badass truck. I knew I was going to mod my tundra and change out the suspension and what not so I went with a limited in 2014. Gonna add some coilovers and 6 inch lift with 35s later this year. Also I did linex Bed liner on mine and it still looks new after 5 years. I also have a tonneau cover aswell so that helps.
tysm for this video! first love Texas, was just in Houston. can't wait to visit again this summer. I have been watching videos on videos the last couple of days, the 19 Tundra TRD Pro will be my first truck and I'm super stoked on it. videos like yours and a couple others have really helped me in understanding what I'll be getting and the everyday driveability of these. I too have a Lexus, so knowing the turning radius was def super helpful. I was also wondering if the skid plate you have, comes with the TRD Pro or was that an option/accessory that you added. so many questions, but your video was really helpful in a lot of areas. thanks again!
@@NurseCarnivore not sure about that option. but the safe is a toyota part that i installed in myself. your dealer will hook you up. i highly recommend it. i kind of did a video on it
Auto lock/unlock tail gate? I have a 19' pro as well in white. Couldn't get my hands on a voodoo blue. Anyways where did you get the auto lock/unlock ? Thanks awesome rig
ya..voodoo takes patience in ordering. 3 months in my case. and was the first in the dfw area. hmmmm.. all toyotas after unlocking and not opening cabin doors will auto lock back up.. try it. unlock it and wait...it will lock back up after so any minutes. it should work
I installed the auto lock on my Platinum Tundra a few months ago. I bought it on Amazon, watched the UA-cam vids on it, and installed it myself. Took a couple of hours, no biggie.
I just got my ‘19 TRD PRO, I love it however only complaint is the turn signals are very weak. Have had several other drivers already point out they couldn’t even see my front turn signals on. Have you noticed this??
WrongwayUp well looking forward to hearing about it. I’ve only had mine a week now so still checking it all out. I just ordered the JDM astar LED turn signal to try... someone suggested it will work great without adding a resistor so I’ll try it. I really don’t want to start cutting wires on my bran new truck...
This particular tundra is the most expensive even more so than the 1794. That being said this and the titan are still far cheaper than the big 3. I mean like a 300 dollars less a month payment cheaper. I got a fully loaded 1794 for 566 a month payment with a 7k downpayment and 7k trade. That was for a base 2014 kia optima. If your making 16 dollars an hour you can afford this truck. I made only 17.50 when I bought this truck and had no problem making the payments
Nice video, ordered the same truck and colour, a few things extra that comes standard in the Canadian version is the Blind Spot Monitoring, Heated Seats in the front and the Spray in Bed Liner. Why the American version does not is beyond me.
No JBL, BSM, Parking assist....love the truck but jeez, why did they cheap out - hate having spent that money just to see those non functional slots on the dash.
As far as I know the 2019 does have the Toyota Safety Sense package as standard equipment which includes BSM, adaptive cruise control, lane departure alert, pre-collision with pedestrian alert and automatic high beams.
Did you mentioned that the US version of the TRD PRO has wiring for the front and rear bumpers ( for parking sensors i'd guess) but they are not connected to anything? Does anyone know about this?
@@AndreiDoroftei Thanks - I may have to buy a US version ... I can live without those sensors ... I will be adding heated seats though : ) and changing the tachometer.
It just don't make a lick a sense to not spend a few hundred to protect the bed with a spray in liner. You need to get some good lookin 35's on that truck and get rid of those mud flaps. The truck is beautiful and the leather seats man o man. You take care of that truck and your son will be driving it when he's your age. Good music pal.
How do you get 16? Are you going by the trucks mpg on the dash? That’s inaccurate, top it off drive and top it off and do your own calculations. I get 12 mpg to 11 with a heavy foot. I got 13 once driving like a grandma
Do you have a link for the ta know cover you talk about in 3:33 I can't find anything listed as a ta know cover. I was thinking about getting a tonneau cover but wondered what a ta know cover was. Can you show me?
good point. i do not know. the trd pro is intended for off-road more then anything. went and looked underneath and i saw nothing that would indicate leveling kit. i did help a buddy of mine install a leveling kit on him 09 tundra .
Noticed that the instrument panel and the entune system is flickering all the time, I believe that would annoy me,is that normal or is it malfunctioning? And does the radio have a CD player? Very beautiful truck though.👍🏼😎
Man I love my tundra, I was told by a toyota salesman that toyota will no longer make v8 for the tundras since folks keep on complaining about mpg. He said 2021 tundra will come out with something similar to the ford eco boost.
Everyone complains about Toyota not having technology but in reality the more stuff you put in a vehicle the more issues you are bound to have......soooo toyota is very slow with putting new stuff because they want reliability but in the mean time I'll stick to my Ford lol but I do like the tundras just not my cup of tea
WrongwayUp I have my qualms about the 3.5 EcoBoost. However, there’s no doubting that they are very powerful. Get the 3.5 or 2.7 in a basic xlt and you have a really fast truck. Also the 3.5 EcoBoost is the only way you can tow 13000 pounds as they say. The 5.7 is a tank of an engine tho and will probably outlast a EcoBoost.
WrongwayUp nope in Tulsa Oklahoma. I have heated leather seats on my sr5 that I added. And it’s been cold here. I even use heated seats in summer time. Lower back problems lol
I'm 23 and I've bought 1 new car in my life which is a 2017 gt. I'll never buy a new car again. You bought this truck for 60k but they sell for under 40k used with 10k miles. I just cant justify spending 20k more to have been the first to own it. I thought the resale was supposed to good on these? That's a 20k loss in value within a year, that's a lot.
Great eye candy but I have to side with the majority of comments... interior is basic for such an expensive truck. I get between 17-21 MPG with my 5.7 Ram with the 8 speed transmission. 3.21 axle ratio so that helps as well
It’s all that off road capability where the price is. In my opinion it’s a straight competitor to the Raptor even without the locking dif. Raptor claims to be the king of Baja I call BS on that. The yuppies that buy it are more like the kings of Starbucks.
Great truck the only problem I’ve had with it is the voodoo blue paint chips unbelievably easy I had less than 5000 miles and three chips now I probably got eight or nine with 20,000 miles and the seat just ripped with the material that supposed to be tougher than leather
Wow. Thought highest price would include upgraded stereo and back up sensors. Last week bought 2018 Tundra TRD. Sticker was 44,601. Got it for 35,800. It's a double cab with sprayed on liner and predator side steps. They charged me 699 for doc fees. Couldn't get out of it.
Headlights are mean. The color-way is rude bruh. Especially with that TRD Embossed Cement Grey and stupid fresh piano black glossed BBS forged rims. I know how much fun it is to be the first to stun hard on the come out. Well worth every penny spent and the 3 month wait. Your boy will be doing the 300,000 mile update video right around his 30th bday....
Nice truck. But you keep contradicting yourself. “You say you don’t use it as a truck then you say you bought it because you needed a truck” You don’t want the Bedliner because it may get chipped but then you say who cares if the paint in the bed gets scratched
articledon thank you...still learning to make videos I guess. I think I should of said that I can , at a later time , add the spray in bed liner when I get tired of starting at the rust and scratches , cos I like the voodoo blue color a lot more then flat black.
If the gas mileage were better than 13/18 city/hwy, I would so buy this over the Tacoma. But, since that isn't the case, I'm going TRD Pro Tacoma in blue.
No battery vehicles is better than gas vehicles. We are all being brainwashed by the Tesla vehicles. Not me. I will use gas vehicles until the oil completely dry up from the ground.😂
In my opinion this truck competes with the over priced and over hyped Ford Raptor for way less money.
For me Tundra TRD Pro is the real King of Baja. Beautiful truck enjoy.
try explaining that one to a ford raptor guy
No. Just no. The Raptor is in a different league.

That million mile Tundra actually had the smaller 4.7L which I believe is even older and the same as the first generation Tundra's engine.
They've had a 5.7 million mile one as well.
This will be my first truck too I'm getting it Army Green.

Put premium gas in your truck and see what MPG.
