Lets face it that's about the most off-roading 99% of these modern trucks ever see. This most off-road capable Tundra is perfect for crawling over those dangerous speed bumps in the parking lot at Starbucks.
My favorite thing about this video is the fact that the exhaust on the $74,000 truck sounds just like my $8000 1995 Toyota forerunner with a 3.0 V6 and a Flowmaster super 40
See you can buy the stuff you need to fix that. ARB is still in business and they build steel deer slayers and serious armor for those who go where they shouldn’t. The good stuff is out there, you just might need to do more work to get it
I went from an off road capable Tacoma to a Tundra Princess. The paint job alone was $1k, Nevermind it was 20k+ more than the Taco. It’s ridiculous to me people are testing 70k luxury trucks off road. They’re way too big and expensive for this hobby. Get a Jeep or a Tacoma which is a lot cheaper and designed for this stuff.
@@Ram14250mine has air suspension in rear so a lift (to my knowledge) isn’t feasible. I absolutely LOVE my tundra but it’s way too big and expensive to be goofing around rough terrain. Get a Tacoma who’s made for this stuff.
The popularity of 4 door long wheelbase limousine trucks with more technology and luxury for the wanna-bee off roaders is getting beyond ridiculous. With the right rig, you can enjoy challenges and not worry about damaging your expensive toy with a crew of spotters surrounding you.
Because I need a small sice work truck, I have an Mitsubishi Triton, Base Model, 4 Door, 2.4L Inline 4 Cylinder Turbo Diesel, Manual Transmission, with 4WD, 4low, rear locker and no Touchscreen or fancy materials. Also it is really nice to overland and to go off road with it.
I really agree. The same thing happened with SUVs. A segment of rugged vehicles gets popular, and then the rugged nature of the vehicle is slowly engineered out
A lot of you guys romanticize old vehicles but if you drove a 40+ year old suv or truck for a week you’d realize how much it sucks and that no one wants to be uncomfortable on their daily drives regardless of how cool they look. Lol manufacturers produce what we demand as a whole.
Looks like this truck is great driving to the obstacles and then turning around and driving home. I really miss the SR5 from the 80's, just like Marty McFly's, those were great.
Thanks for the video. Would love to see TFL get their hands on a 24 Tundra 4x4 Off Road with the 3” factory lift that Toyota now offers for a full review and some off-road testing. Maybe some 35’s too.
While I really like this truck, it is definitely not on par for off-roading with the likes of the 1500 AT4X, ZR2, TRX, Raptor, or Powerwagon. Approach and departure angles really hold this truck back. Bumpers as well. I think the next update on this truck from the factory definitely needs to be front and rear bumpers (with tow hooks!). This truck is so Toyota. It's not class leading in anything, but does a bunch of things really well and is reliable (I guess we'll see as they accumulate more miles) to boot.
@@warriorwarrior6999I’ve had both and I can’t fathom taking my Tundra off road. It’s $60k+ and massive. Also the front chin clearance is terrible. The Tacoma was great fun on trails bc it’s a lot smaller, lighter, has a great turn radius, and about 20k less. Busting up a Taco makes sense. They’re made for this stuff. The tundra is a luxury truck that’s super comfortable and probably decent off road. The Tacoma was a legit outdoor toy.
Wow a long wheelbase pickup truck meant for high speed offroading didn't do well on a slow speed offroad course that modified jeeps, 4 Runners, and even a SxS have struggled with? Imagine that. A lot of yall are just looking for a reason to hate on the tundra
I can see that adding the OEM bed step (which I need) will limit my ability to do some off road trails. Would appreciate hearing from other Tundra owners who have installed the step on their trucks and what their experiences have been.
Thanks, but I’ll keep my 03 Tundra, good approach, departure and break over angles. It’s just getting broke-in with 255,000 miles. It’s still quite comfortable as a daily driver.
It's got a massive center screen, a grill big enough to swallow a Smart car, and huge lettering in the back to ensure nobody misses what you're driving. I mean what else do you need for a mall crawler?
Not sure of any unmodified vehicle that would sport the flex needed for some of that trail. Not that it would solve the lack of flex but airing down is definitely needed for some of that tire spin.
I am so happy I bought the SR Version, The PRO is a nice rig, but too many gizmos that dazzle teenagers over articulation of the chassis! All I need is to get some spacers on the front, get some nicer wheels and tires and I can dance with the Pro all day!
I was seriously thinking of getting a Tundra TRD pro to get a more modern, smoother riding truck than power wagon(2022), but this changed my mind. Bummer, because otherwise it's an awesome truck.
Why? I mean unless you’re planning a trip up the rubicon trail I think it’s far more capable than most people will ever need. For a bone stock factory truck I think it did quite well. I work at a dodge dealer or at least I did as a Service advisor, always saw ram trucks come in with weird problems. This shouldn’t surprise you but I drive a Toyota and I worked at a ford dealership a dodge dealership and a Chevy dealership over the last few years. I drive a Toyota cause I don’t want to be working on the same things I worked on every day. Go check out a tundra and find one that works for you. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised
Good to see some of the limits of the factory version. I'm looking to buy something (F150, Z71, Tacoma, Ranger, Tundra?) and I think I will just run it where I go, and if I damage bumpers then I will consider replacing them with aftermarket off road gear. :) Or maybe I should just try to get David's truck for off-road and a nice Avalon for the highway...
In that terrain you would more than likely have the same issues with any off road vehicle. And yes, I mean the Raptor as well. It’s no surprise this truck comes with small tires. Buy the 35in Toyo Open Country A/T tires and this problem is solved.
@@Wawa.k and David wasn't taking it easy to protect the truck. I'm sure the Pro would have been able to clear those obstacles if they didn't have to hold back...
Surely this is a joke. This truck has as much ground clearance as my old Chrysler Newport. The trucks (work or otherwise) of that period had so much more ground clearance and they didn’t weigh 3 tons.
“Nathan’s crack doesn’t look near as dramatic on camera as it does in real life”. “After what happened in Nathan’s Crack, I don’t think we want to be here. This is way deeper”. I’m dead 😂. Nathan’s crack is legendary
Trd offroad Pro!?🤔 they put that STICKER on everything 😂 they call this a off road… what a joke!! Plastic front bumper 🤔 don’t change y’all’s awesome off road course so a TOY can make it thru🤷🏻♂️ still a great video. Thanks y’all!
Tundra TRD PRO is a package made for going stupid fast on a baja style road… definitely no amazing off roader… cant help but to laugh at a street tire’d old Chevy ripping through with zero issue!! Good stuff right there.
Doesn't seem like that hard of a test considering you are scared to death over a small inconvenience. The truck would have been fine with that drop if you just powered out of it. If you want to really test the durability and off road capability you gotta drive it how everyone else would. Not 1mph creeping over everything. I understand that it's not your truck but you should get some more leeway when you get a truck for an off-road type review.
The TRD off road should still come with good tow hooks and a 3 inch lift. If not a 3 inch then it should forgo the front airdam and add a minimum 1.5 inch lift
As much work as you guys had to do and stop and go stop and go I would say that truck needs to stay on the street and definitely not a work truck you don’t always have all day to get to the job site or drive around with a spotter in the real world but you guys are doing great work
I suspect that look Adrea gave to the can we take your truck question, meant NO. Personally I think I would be very reluctant to take a borrowed 70K vehicle on anything that rough. My off road testing of something that expensive plus borrowed would probably lean abit toward the somewhat safe/mild side.
The ZR2 isn't far from that price point. It's a give-and-take scenario, ZR2 has more ground clearance but tows way less and has less HP and Torque for towing. So the ZR2 is pretty singular in its usage, whereas with the Tundra you can get bigger tires, a lift, and still be tow king over the Chevy.
I have been thinking a lot about this pickup. Dont want the hybrid model. Its too low to the ground. No front hooks. Weak payload. And the weird V8 fake engine noise coming out of the speakers WTF? Flirting with the 6.5' bed and the factory 3" lift on a platinum or a 1764... I might end up going to an F250 Diesel or a Silverado 2500 diesel. Cant decide.
Actually they’re right in line with what the big change for their full size barges. They’re on par again with the options except for 1 thing. You can’t get a V-8 on the tundra anymore. I believe you can with Fords and GMs full sized trucks. I think ford’s FX4 package is nothing but some El Rancho shocks and a few extra skid plates. GM’s high end off roaders are using parts from 3rd party supplier AEV. At the end of the day a TRD off road tundra is far more capable then most people who buy one will ever put it through
I don't like filling the obstacles with wood. It is a band aid and the logs are too slick when they get wet. Should be filling them with large rocks so you'll at least have some traction.
This is sad 😅 these trucks although the 4x4 system works alright… the suspension and ground clearance and all the pretty trimmings don’t make this the most practical thing on the dirt.
Like all off road packages it’s window dressing. When I set up my Japanese import 70 series 2 door Land Cruiser for off roading I bought all the right parts. Unfortunately it makes it a bit clumsy and clunky for every day driving. Toyota was trying to build a semi off roader but realized for 74k that they needed to compromise. As a compromise truck it’s ok. It’s a bit more every day friendly then my purpose built trail rig which I can say does not have the best on road manners with a 4 inch lift and a short wheelbase
Cringed. David is always being forced to do the hard manual labor. What's with that? Taking the falls. Getting grungiest. It's nice he is willing to help, but it would be nice if others would help him out there on that course. As for the truck, even I would not have run it back there knowing what you know, knowing what we all have seen. Having to keep modifying that course to accommodate NEW rigs that nobody wants scratched and dented does not make sense to me. Use the CUV course for the NEW rigs to play in. Leave the back part for your guests that want a challenge.
"As long as it can clear curbs it's fine. Shouldn't need recovery hooks for that."
-Toyota board meeting
amazes me that vehicles have to have backup cameras by law but now tow hooks.
The Saki was flowing freely at Toyota Corp when they forgot about tow hooks.

Love that the farm truck was like hold my beer, let me test this out.
A+ 😂😂😂😂
He does have Michelin tires 🤣😂
I was actually more impressed by Dave’s truck myself.
David is just the absolute best. If he's in the video, I watch.
My favorite thing about this video is the fact that the exhaust on the $74,000 truck sounds just like my $8000 1995 Toyota forerunner with a 3.0 V6 and a Flowmaster super 40
I think all Toyota V6s sound SO similar slightly different tones but very close. I like them tho 🤣
Gone are steel bumpers and affordable parts. Now we "mostly" have crazy expensive and easily damaged princesses trucks.

This Tundra seems to have a good 4×4 system, it's just a shame it's fitted to a bus with terrible clearance and angles.
Yes, easy fix though imo. A slight 1" lift would take care of it. Very nice Truck!

Now that is real life right there boys. Not sure if you intended/scripted that, but that was a great post reflecting real situations.
This was unscripted. We just wanted to drive the onX Offroad "back course".

When in doubt - throttle out! Go David!
The new Tundras were meant for towing first. The Tacoma is for trails.

"Can we take your truck?" Hahahaha. Love the videos guys. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for the honest review of a factory truck. You guys always do a great job showing why trucks need aftermarket lifts and parts. Awesome 😁
Thank you for watching.
Why are you using the gas and brake at the same time? When you are transversing the obstacles? Momentum is key for continued progress

The TRD Pro has evolved into a mall crawler.
True, though it will look nice towing a couple of side by sides to the trail head.
That Tundra needs a lift to tackle that course without dragging
As far as just strictly off roading a Toyota Tacoma is a whole lot better than a full size tundra.

This Terra Pro is nice ...would take this over a trx or raptor.
A used stock gladiator sport for 30-33k will perform better.
74000 and needs about another 6000 for a decent suspension set up
Smh ….sheesh
You don’t need to spend that much.
These trucks are getting too expensive to test like this. No one drives like that off road.
My 2018 tunny would walk through that!! 5.7 all the way!
I think this truck needs high clearance bumpers and a slight lift. Other than that, it did well. Factory bumpers are just too low to the ground.
New tundras have no ground clearance, what a bummer.
I love ❤ the new Toyota Tundra's, especially the TRD Pros! ❤
Agree! New Terra color is awesome too!
You just proved to me that I am better off with my 4Runner thanks
Will it clear the speed bumps at the mall? We need a video of this.

Guess I’ll wait to see the reviews on the Trailhunter.
I’m glad David didn’t fall when he was in Nathan’s crack. We may have never seen him again.
A lot of additional work was required to take the most off-road worthy Tundra off road. Not a good look for $74K.
Agreed 74k , not including sales tax which is another 6-8k ……sheesh what an investment into a depreciating asset.
FLT should compare the high county on the same course. Guarantee that the truck would have the same issues or more.

Is your spoiler expanding in heat on tailgate and scrapping paint below handle and on top sides
Can I add 295/70/18 with no level or lift ? Will I need to do any cutting on mud flap?

Cringed. David is always being forced to do the hard manual labor. What's with that? Taking the falls. Getting grungiest. It's nice he is willing to help, but it would be nice if others would help him out there on that course. As for the truck, even I would not have run it back there knowing what you know, knowing what we all have seen. Having to keep modifying that course to accommodate NEW rigs that nobody wants scratched and dented does not make sense to me. Use the CUV course for the NEW rigs to play in. Leave the back part for your guests that want a challenge.
