    Why I love the Tundra over the competition; reliable 5.7l V8 with no cylinder deactivation nonsense, reliable six speed transmission, 4.30 rear end from the factory, none of that 3.73, 3.55, or 3.31 from the completion, and no use of aluminum body panels. 💪🏽

    Bravo on the review. I have driven ram 1500, f-150 in 5.0 and 3.6 twin turbo, f-250, and Nissan Titan. There is nothing to me that replaces the sound and feel of a true V8. While people complain about the tundra being antiquated, I love the practicality and utility. Simplicity is so refreshing in my opinion. The round, adjustable AC vents, the huge knobs that you can just turn instead of tapping a touch screen to adjust AC temp and level. I love it. I just didn’t feel like I was in a true V8 while driving the Ram because of the auto shutoff while stopped at traffic lights. I don’t want a Tesla touchscreen. I actually wish other manufacturers would take a cue from Toyota, and hope that Toyota continues to offer more utilitarian options like this and the Sequoia. If it ain’t broke..

    Had a 2019 f150. Used oil, transmission shifted strangely sometimes. Sometimes when I would crank it up, it would jerk like the drive shaft tried to move. Being a 5.0, of course it had the type writer tick. Traded for a 2021 tundra limited. No issues so far!

Although you're not going wrong with any of the trucks but what I wanted to convey is these other reviews and their assumptions are pretty ridiculous about the Tundra. The 2020 Tundra is leaps ahead of even the 2018 Tundra...those small changes added up for a more refined experience and because of that the Tundra really closed the gap glad the review helped

I love these trucks all I can say is we purchase them and depending on what year you got make sure they have the transmission cooler if they don’t install one. It’s not that hard and you can get packages that have all the Toyota parts you need to install one. Great review keep up the great work.

    I love the Tundra. It is a solid machine. I couldn’t beat the value of the 2020 Silverado Trailboss so ended up buying that and have been blown away by how fantastic it is. It has the V8 and I get 18.5 MPG over all. Price wise it was only a few thousand more than a Tundra and I got dual zone climate control, heated steering wheel, heated seats, remote start, keyless entry/start and tailgate opens with key fob and a two inch factory lift with off-road tires and shocks not to mention the 10 speed transmission which makes it feel more powerful and faster. It was comfortable and very smooth even compared to Tundra, Ram, F150, and Nissan Titan. I spent a few months doing a tremendous amount of research and all trucks are good choices. If I had a tundra I know I would be just as happy and look for all the ways to justify why I bought it. I’ve owned F150, Silverado, and Tundra and honestly, when it comes to cars or SUVs I wouldn’t spend money on anything but Toyota. With trucks there are too many attractive options available. I paid 42k for the Trailboss and after a year I am still excited every time I get to drive my truck. Great review. I think personally without bias when spending 50k on a truck you should drive at least 3 of your favorite options available before buying.

    • @MeynMotorGroup
      @MeynMotorGroup  3 роки тому +1

      Awesome Silverado my friend great deal on a great truck. You're right, I love how Value Packed the Silverado Trail Boss is and honestly, I love the way it looks too.
      I'm glad you are sensible enough in finding value with all trucks but most importantly, I'm glad you found an option that best suited your needs, to the point where a year later you still love it. That's what it's all about. Thank you so much for stopping by

    Hi, I am new to your channel, you caught my attention from the title. I will say it is refreshing to listen to someone that gets into detail for a review of the Tundra's. Especially when you said you have driven all other brands. Your video made me subscribe to your channel, I dont like to do that to to many because of all the notifications. But any way YES I am a Toyota fan, and a long term truck owner. A year ago I finally bought my first Tundra, actually first full size "had a Tacoma for 11 years before". Plan on handing this 2014 limited TRD crewmax with levelling down to my son around the year 2030 lol. My question to you is if you know about the levelling kits with spacer and some now I see use the 5100 bilstein adjustable shocks if only going up to 2 1/2". Do you think it would be better ride with the shock adjustment than with the spacer on top of shock? Yes it will be a shame if they dont have the V8 option for the future Tundra's. They forsure can modify this V8 for more power and MPG. Just hope they dont sacrifice the know Toyota reliability and dependability for long term use lol.

    • @MeynMotorGroup
      @MeynMotorGroup  3 роки тому +1

      I'm humbled that you subscribed my friend thank you so much! Congrats on the Tundra but unfortunately I am the worst person to ask when it comes to modifications. I especially I don't recommend lifting trucks, I know it's a common thing many owners do and really enhances the looks but for me it just compromises on road use too much. Lacks smoothness, handling, and safety. But again, I would ask some experts on Truck modifying what their thoughts are. There might be some less compromising, albeit expensive ways to lift a track without sacrificing too much

  • @nonooohlii

    By far, the best review. I have the TRD Sport CM, and to me, it handles like a dream. The swaybars do help a lot, but it sacrifices the comfortability over bumps. Still a very comfortable truck and i love it. I chose it over the big 3.

    I just watched the release of the 2022 Tundra. I rushed out and bought one of the last 2021s in Ontario Canada. Chill white, 1794. This is my 3rd Tundra. People complain about fuel consumption. Fuel costs less than parts. I typically go 110,000 kms on a set of brakes and I tow things not frequently, but often enough. I have never been on a tow truck and between my trucks have put over 400,000 kms on them. When it comes time to sell these things, the value of a clean Tundra is amazing. If the twin turbo V6 proves to be as good as people feel they will be, mine will be an easy sell. There will be a following of V8s that will go on longer than I'll be around.

I have driven the fords and rams and I like them also, but every time I go back to the Tundra (I use to own the first Tundra 2000 when it first came out back in Oct of 1999), this truck was silky and solid to drive. I sold this back in 2008 and I recently purchased my second tundra last year (2020 TRD Sports). There is something to be said about the solidness, no frills and simple truck that is very reliable. It does what you want it to do and it has all the amenities that matter and nothing more. Good job.

      Hey thank you my friend and yes for sure I love the other new trucks but like you mentioned Toyota is old school but they managed to pull of all the new school refinement and immediacy in their drivetrain and that makes it a very unique driving experience that's hard to explain to someone who is just poisoned with magazine specs in their minds

    I own a TRD Sport with Bilstein shocks and sway bars...but it's not "off-road," nor did I wish it to be "off-road." It's funny, other than the Pro, the only other shocks / sway bar package I ever hear about is the TRD Sport OFF-road. So what does that make mine: TRD Sport On-road? I just never hear it phrased that way and I didn't ask at dealer except to know that I hadn't bought a model which was focused on off-road performance (though I know this model can do okay off-road if I needed tdo something mild to moderate off road).
    Makes me want to go out before it's too late and buy another Tundra. I sure wish Sport had come with integrated nav and convenience package but not the end of the world. Me like those beepers when parking big-ass truck.

      Yes you got basically the "on road" sports truck it's supposed to be the best handling tundra and more calibrated for the street which isn't a bad thing since that's where 99% of Truck owners keep their vehicles. I'm just curious about the ride on your truck

      @@MeynMotorGroup I've never owned a truck. My other car is a Chevy SS ('17) that handles like crazy. This isn't anywhere near as tight since it weighs more than 2,000 lbs more and...is a truck!
      When I first test drove a Tundra, I was upset because local dealer didn't have Sport on the lot because I sensed that I wouldn't like softer SR5 ride / truck ride. Month later at another local area dealer they had a TRD Sport on the lot (wrong color for me) but the test drive confirmed my suspicions: I really liked the handling and the tighter drive.
      Hard to find anything I liked in south Miss, so I had to put out feelers from the dealer and they found two Barcelona Red ones, one in New Orleans and one in north part of state.
      Since then, I've put on Westin 5" black nerf bars, rear step up peddle, Husky mats and an after market console safe from Lock'er Down (a mom and pop in San Antone that does nothing but make these console safes for all major truck brands going back to like '05. It's a much better make (thicker with better lock and comes in half and full console) than Toyota safe and lock.
      Thinking about some sort of window tint treatment but options are numerous; and a bed cover; and maybe an exhaust system that highlights V-8 a bit more. Guy at custom shop even trying to talk me into leather seats! May wait a year on that one cuz I'm not sure about leather being an advantage in hot climate.
      Loving the heck out of the truck and allows me to save miles on the SS. It's a real workhorse and very reliable. I'm retired, so I didn't mean WORK horse, lol. Play horse, more like it!

I'm currently waiting for my 2022 order of a Limited CrewMax TRD Off Road in Lunar Rock to be delivered as the wait is still 4 months away. I'm located in Vancouver, BC, Canada and the new Tundra's are finally making their way north of the border.
    My dealer contacted me two weeks ago to let me know that a customer cancelled their order of a black 2021 CrewMax TRD Sport Premium. It is the last 2021 being delivered to BC and since I was first in line waiting for the 2022, I was asked if I wanted it. Without hesitation, I jumped on it! It should arrive in 1-2 weeks and I'm very excited. I won't lie as I was having second thoughts, but your video reassured and convinced me that I made the correct choice!

    What's "advanced" about the domestics suspension? It is nothing new. The Ram's rear coil spring is nothing new. For example Toyota uses that setup on the LandCruiser! Soft ride? That can easily be changed with a different coil spring. Go softer spring, smoother ride, more squat with Heavy Payload. Go high rate spring, harsher ride, less squat with heavy Payload. The Silverado rides firmer in the rear because of harder leaf springs for more Payload and handling with load.

    • @MeynMotorGroup
      @MeynMotorGroup  3 роки тому +1

      No credit where credit is due those trucks really are advanced and they can be that advanced because they sell like 500k of them a year in the states alone.
      This is why the F 150 due to economies of scale can use an all aluminum body that some sports cars don't even have.
      Then there's the variety of tech whether you use them or not the vehicles have it like the trailer assist, advanced safety tech, 35 inch television screens, massage seats, etc etc.
      Sure there's diminished returns with a lot of this stuff but on paper, these domestics do offer a ton of tech that make owners feel like James Bond and reviewers continue to paint the Tundra as some antiquated irrelevant vehicle but reality is, it's got more than what you need and 100% of what's offered can be used and is very satisfying to drive.
