Jon - curious if you know if Toyota actually has been making improvements in their vehicles, and not just new parts, but real improvements in areas like that wind noise you mentioned and also the rattling center console, etc. Just thinking back to your videos about your LC First Edition, like will there be improvements in the newest builds??
Limited TRD 4x4, color matched everything, TRD factory lift, Add 35’s. Boom done. OR Ford Raptor then you get another whole user group. Come take a look at my 24 over in inlet beach.
I have had the 2024 Tundra TRD PRO since August last year. Awesome , no issues with the truck. The original tires are coping very well with the Candian winter. Close to 12, 000 KM. Average consumption is way better then previous Gen 2 which I had also owned .
I am still rocking my 22 TRD Pro. I have no major issues with it. The turn radius is bad, the cup holders are not as nice as you think, you will need an insert to keep your cups from tipping over. It's a great truck. I do like the black headliner better on the newer trucks.
I have this exact model and colour! I love it. Console doesn’t shake, Weather strip is good. 😊 I just don’t care about rock sliders underneath. Much rather have running boards!
mud bath is nice. Seminole Toyota near Orlando told me 97k out the door for theirs (15k markup after tax tag title dealer addons). told them to kick rocks and I decided to keep my 2021 lunar rock trd pro.
I just traded my 2022 RAV4 XLE, for a 2025 Camry XSE, and I will never regret it. My truck will be paid off tomorrow. I'm making the last payment, yay!
@SasukeUchiha-zu6dw I would consider staying with Honda honestly any maybe getting a CRV. Unless you want to get a hybrid, which will have a little bit more power because my RAV4 was gutless, and the seats were uncomfortable, and the interior was kind of cheap. Some of the higher trim levels may not have these issues, though. I highly advise going Hybrid.
@chrismarbrey9678 That's awesome, Chris! Congratulations 👏! I have a 25 Camry XSE as well, and I love it. For what I do (driving to work and home), it's perfect. Comfortable, smooth, got a good amount of power, and insanely efficient. I don't have hardly any complaints.
@@chrismarbrey9678 yeah was leaning towards the hybrid. I thought of the new redesign crv hybrid too but would have to wait another year or so for the cost to come down.
My 2024 has zero wind noise and zero rattles. I did have to wait 3 weeks extra for delivery because of updated door seals. Probably all set with this 2025 version, TRD Pro or not. The Hybrid in my son's Limited mostly only adds power and it can be made to go on the electric only if you really play with the throttle. No really noticeable MPG gains he gets the same as do, about 17+ in town and 21-22 highway...19-20 if you like doing 80.
You guys really need to see the turning radius on my GMC 3500 crew cab 8-foot bed truck. You would appreciate so much better the turning radius of your tiny cute Tundras. 😃
Do it! Only reason I didn't get the Pro was because it didn't have the leg extender (I have long thighs) and wasn't only able to find it on the Platinum.
TRD Pro’s usually have a great resale, any truck or SUV. As for the Tundra TRD Pro the only downside is it doesn’t qualify for the 1.9-2.9% APR TMC financing. Plus dealers are less likely to knock off anything from the SRP. Personally I’m thinking about the Limited or 1794 with TRD Off-road and TRD Lift. I would also like the TRD Performance. Of course that floats me close to the TRD Pro sticker.
I’d say wait, until they add something different with the tundra, because from 2022 to 2025 the only thing different is the truck bed can go up like a Tacoma, and massaging seats. Hopefully 2026 tundra will fix the remote start and maybe newer amenities 🤷♂️
I really miss the days when the focus on this channel was on classic vehicles like the 4Runner and the cool stuff available to customize it. It seems like the channel is now primarily centered on buying and selling new Toyotas, and I’m concerned it’s heading in the same direction as Untamed Motors.😢 Side note… I don’t know how your wife would be ok with all the vehicles you have been buying and selling. My wife would kill me if I bought and sold a vehicle then bought sold the SAME vehicle, then mentioned about buying it AGAIN? She would kill me 😂
I’m 6’3 and currently sitting in my 20 TRD pro on a 14 Hour road trip and you’re absolutely crazy if you don’t think this is a comfortable good road trip vehicle. 85MPH 14 mpg and that’s with a supercharger.
Jon I hope you get a new truck Ill glady watch your videos .I like the pro . Sorry Jon you got the money for it. I like the raptors. I work for the government and fords are always going down. I hope they fix the issues on the toyota tundra
I dunno, man... my 2023 TRD Pro has 15k miles and is only worth about $57k on trade, and $64 on private sell. Bought it for $75. almost lost $20k in value in less than 2 years. I have 37's on mine and get about 13-15 MPG. Did all my work through Westcott, too. I was really hoping the truck would hold its value better.
I’d wait… think you already have them a fair shake. More than a fair shake, honestly. Just wait for the refresh and go try out a loaded RHO for low 70’s…
I still want to see you get or at least a deep dive review on a loaded Chevy Colorado ZR2 non-bison just to compare it to the Tacoma off-road premium. They are roughly around the same price And it seems like you get a lot more for the money with the ZR2. As for the Tundra. I’d skip it and stay with 4R and more relevant new vehicles and wait for the refresh. But, if you get rid of the LC and truly plan on a long term go for it.
RHO is sick, but reliability of the hurricane engine remains a question. Raptor is cool but this is a Toyota channel lol. Tundra...maybe wait for the 3.5 gen
I'd say wait. Unfortunately the 24's are starting to get failure complaints. Hybrids as well. Not sure it's worth the gamble or the hassle that would come with it.
I get that and for content creation it’s good but can’t you get one rent or get it from Toyota as a review vehicle or get one on specialty rentals for a week or similar?
Don't do it Jon don't even think about getting a new tundra again lol. Theyre not reliable man not worth the headache or waiting to see if you're blows up. I had a 24 at 2500 miles engine failure. Towed it to dealer gave them the keys. Got out of it and into the tacoma thats actually known for reliability lol
The answer to your question: Logical: Will the channel cover the payments + tax advantages with all the other vehicles you have. Emotional: Your name is _ _ _ Jon :) aka do it!
I have a 2022 Toyota Tundra SR5 TRD Off Road Premium in Army Green and I love it ... never give me issues ... I bought it brand new in 7/4/22 ... 33,800 miles on odometer!
@@bwset69Happy for you. I dropped 6 figures on a fully loaded ‘23 tundra 1794 edition… literally put everything on it. Lift, film, TRD pro wheels even…. Wanted to love it. Couldn’t do it. Traded it back in for second gen TRD pro. Put a magnuson super charger on it along with some other upgrades to the interior…. Can’t beat it. Unless you get an F-250 tremor or raptor or TRX 🙄
Uhm you weren’t happy about it when you had a tundra trd pro for short periods of time. Why not Lexus 700h after what you done for years you’ve earn it 🙌 Lexus lx 700h overtrail cargo battery is hidden finally which Toyota 250 LC should have done 🤦♂️
Ok...Let me hear it! Thanks YotaVerse! www.yotaverse.com/?psafe_param=1

Do it Jon, let's see how its improved.
I hope it has!
Just bought a 2025 Tundra limited TRD Off Road , love it .
I'd wait for the refresh..... this is essentially the same truck as the 22 and 23....
I like the idea of you taking on a Tundra that has had time for Toyota to apply their kaizen practices. Whatever you do will be great.
Limited TRD 4x4, color matched everything, TRD factory lift, Add 35’s. Boom done. OR Ford Raptor then you get another whole user group. Come take a look at my 24 over in inlet beach.
Solid choice right there!
I just bought a 2025 Tundra SR5 and so far it’s built much better than the 24 Tacoma I traded in. Haven’t been able to to find any issues yet.
Love my 24. Red interior. Trailer mirrors.
Suspension so much better than the regular platinum that I had. Do it✅
Just bought a 2025 Tundra limited TRD Off Road , love it , in lunar Road .
That is a great color.
I would love to see another 3rd gen tundra on the channel!!
Get the 2025 Pro. Jon. You'll love it. My 2025 1794 is next to flawless with just 400 miles on it.
I have had the 2024 Tundra TRD PRO since August last year. Awesome , no issues with the truck. The original tires are coping very well with the Candian winter. Close to 12, 000 KM. Average consumption is way better then previous Gen 2 which I had also owned .
awesome and great to hear that.
Good idea, it is good to understand the product over time. Mud bath is really nice color
I am still rocking my 22 TRD Pro. I have no major issues with it. The turn radius is bad, the cup holders are not as nice as you think, you will need an insert to keep your cups from tipping over. It's a great truck. I do like the black headliner better on the newer trucks.
Same here. 44k miles and still going strong
Go for it! Not much Tundra hybrid content out there.
Exciting bud… we ll stay tuned for what you do
Driving my 22 Tundra and watching your video and I'm hearing this whistle noise that actually is coming from your video I started tripping😅😂
Wish you the best with this one 🤞🙏
I have this exact model and colour! I love it. Console doesn’t shake, Weather strip is good. 😊 I just don’t care about rock sliders underneath. Much rather have running boards!
Such a great color!!!
Do it! Still a good comparison between your previous two and you can test the iforcemax.
mud bath is nice. Seminole Toyota near Orlando told me 97k out the door for theirs (15k markup after tax tag title dealer addons). told them to kick rocks and I decided to keep my 2021 lunar rock trd pro.
Leave a google review - so everyone can know their shadyness and horrible business
That is wild!!!!!!
@@willito1211 good idea. thanks.
Lol you could get a F150 Raptor 37 package w/ 5k off for 88k
15k that’s raptor R markup
I traded my Tundra in for a Camry, because I just didn't need a truck. Seeing that one in the intro really makes me miss it though.
I just traded my 2022 RAV4 XLE, for a 2025 Camry XSE, and I will never regret it. My truck will be paid off tomorrow. I'm making the last payment, yay!
@@chrismarbrey9678 how did you like the Rav 4? I'm thinking of trading my 14 Accord in for one

Jon I say try out the 25 tundra bro you made us look at the other tundras previously, show us how the 25 has changed!
I'd say just wait for the refresh. This platform has been reviewed well already. Being one of the first for the refresh will just be better.
I’ll already be on that refresh no doubt!
I want to see an RHO on the channel. I’d be curious to see what you think of a RAM with living with one for a decent amount of time
RAM RHO! That thing looks AMAZING minus no port injection.
That mud bath color looks fantastic! Hopefully it makes it to the ORP Tacoma and 4Runner next year.
Can’t wait to see if they’ll have the mud bath in other trims for 26’. I’d just all over a limited TRD off road
My 2024 has zero wind noise and zero rattles. I did have to wait 3 weeks extra for delivery because of updated door seals. Probably all set with this 2025 version, TRD Pro or not.

I’d really appreciate a review of a TRD Pro to see if some of the common concerns about the Tundra have been addressed.
He doesn’t need to buy one for that reason. Rental or getting a Toyota press vehicle for a week would do that.
Not really. My last tundra started presenting problems after several months
I’m curious how this year works for you! I have 2012 tundra. I have read too many reviews that are questionable!
its nice but i'd say wait for the refresh.
Wait for the refresh.
I had. 23 Platinum with 6.5 ft bed, turning radius was terrible. My new 25 Platinum Off-road with 5.5' bed has good turning radius
That extra foot will do that for sure
You guys really need to see the turning radius on my GMC 3500 crew cab 8-foot bed truck. You would appreciate so much better the turning radius of your tiny cute Tundras. 😃
My fav is 1794 Trd Offroad! Just wish they didn’t have so much chrome 😏
The 1794 first edition though! So good.
Do it! Only reason I didn't get the Pro was because it didn't have the leg extender (I have long thighs) and wasn't only able to find it on the Platinum.
I can already hear the window rattle!
😂😂😂😂
Give the 25’ a shot! As a 23’ Tundra SR5 TRD Off Road owner I’d be curious to know if Toyota has dialed in the 3rd Gen a bit more.
TRD Pro’s usually have a great resale, any truck or SUV. As for the Tundra TRD Pro the only downside is it doesn’t qualify for the 1.9-2.9% APR TMC financing. Plus dealers are less likely to knock off anything from the SRP. Personally I’m thinking about the Limited or 1794 with TRD Off-road and TRD Lift. I would also like the TRD Performance.

Do it Jon, I juat traded my 23 Solar Octane Pro for a 25 Mudbath Pro, its a wild colour.
I say wait for the refresh, save the cashflow for the 4Runner and house
Ive got a 22 Limited Trd offroad with 140k on it, its been flawless..
That color looks awesome
I know right?
I’d say wait, until they add something different with the tundra, because from 2022 to 2025 the only thing different is the truck bed can go up like a Tacoma, and massaging seats. Hopefully 2026 tundra will fix the remote start and maybe newer amenities 🤷♂️
Did you noticed they added red trd upper control arms, different headlights and a I force max badge on the back.
I showed the UCAs. Same headlights I’m pretty sure. Fail to mention the badge
@ I love the 25’s, friend got one and it’s awesome.
Go for it!!!!
Just channel investments is all and it shows. I stopped watching months ago.
Apparently not……
@Mike… He doesn’t watch. He just comes here to comment because he is homesick. 😃
no Jon pass on that, what would be cool is a vehicle compare with the 2024 4runner vs the 2025 4runner-side by side.
This 💯. Fresh stuff too! More viewers.
If you ever want to do a side by side with a Raptor, you can borrow mine. As a bonus it will smell like fresh roasted coffee😂
I may take you up on that!!!!! I need to bring my TRD Pro Tacoma by

I wonder if Toyota has fixed the wind noise, rattles and cheap seat plastic.
Hi Jon Have you ever visited the Tundra plant in Texas?
I have!!
I think you should give it one more try. Even if you wait for the twenty six
I’m 6’3 and currently sitting in my 20 TRD pro on a 14 Hour road trip and you’re absolutely crazy if you don’t think this is a comfortable good road trip vehicle. 85MPH 14 mpg and that’s with a supercharger.

Feel like I just saw you buy the blue truck. 😂
Wait for the refresh.
Doing the refresh regardless
@@TRDJonleasing now and then later?
Why not, do it! You have other vehicles if it dies:)
Jon, I’d wait until 26.
Ohhh, it’s the one, baby! - Costanza
Plus, you’re not PLATINUM JON.
Why there crap with V6 and still blowing up in ‘25
Get the Pro with the TRD Performance Package 🔥🔥
THAT would be rad!

Do it! 👍🏼
I doubt the refresh would happen in 2026. I think you need to give the hybrid a chance, see if you can actually get 20 mpg! 🤪
I think it will be announced and then as a 2027 model
Broooo get it. Sick
I’d wait… think you already have them a fair shake. More than a fair shake, honestly. Just wait for the refresh and go try out a loaded RHO for low 70’s…
I was impressed with it at this auto show
Would definitely be interested in RHO content! Will probably place an order for one this summer.

Jon, you just can’t help yourself, can’t you? 😃
Just wanna see if it has been fixed or not. Loads of tiny issues
I get that and for content creation it’s good but can’t you get one rent or get it from Toyota as a review vehicle or get one on specialty rentals for a week or similar?
Definitely go Tundra TRD Pro over a Ford Raptor or Ram RHO.
You think so?
That’s a good looking truck. But I’d get the extended warranty. You’re a Toyota guy so stick with it. Too many channels with the RHO.
Hard pass for turd gen Tundra!
Bro. Please get a LX700h instead of 3rd Gen Tundra.
Shit I don’t have that much $$$
@ I hear you. Right now, it’s my dream vehicle and can only afford it if I win the lottery.
Just get a Raptor R and be done. You can make plenty of videos with it
Dream truck
DOOO ITTTT!!!!
Hi Jon I Will Say A Get A (2025 Toyota Tundra TRD PRO)
Get the 25
I support another 3 gen
Get a RHO. Better in almost every way.
It’s so sick
Don't do it Jon don't even think about getting a new tundra again lol. Theyre not reliable man not worth the headache or waiting to see if you're blows up. I had a 24 at 2500 miles engine failure. Towed it to dealer gave them the keys. Got out of it and into the tacoma thats actually known for reliability lol
My 22 had 15K and my 23 had like 13K. Not issues with the powertrain
Sorry you happened to be selected
@TRDJon thanks ya its just a roll of the dice i got. its ok I'm alot happier with my 4gen tacoma now

The 22+ Tundra is the most disappointing product Toyota has brought to market in years. They should be embarrassed at how cheap and plasticky it is.

Nothing about this product entices me to spend my disposable income on it.
No raptor. No ford!

Jon are you really gonna get fooled THREE times by this truck? Please don’t do it. It’s not even good content
What’s the point you ain’t planning on keeping for the long run . Pointless fake news
