2021 Toyota Tundra Quick Review // Just...Wait. 

In case anyone is curious, that's 11 mpg.

I have a ‘21 Platinum, my favorite features are the rear window that rolls down and the sound of that 5.7! I’ll take reliability over a few extra MPG’s any day.

The Nissan Titan doesn't get as much attention as the other trucks, seeing you guys review it would be really interesting. I hardly know anything about it.

I’d like to see the Ram and the Titan.

I love how the “save the manuals” crowd gets so offended at the thought of turning a key to start a vehicle. Myself included.

Surprised to learn Thomas is the bougie water drinker type

Long live a real key....

Great content as always. You should ask Dodge for a three month long term test. Then Nissan for a six month long term test. Then Chevy for a nine month long term test. See where I'm going with this??? ;)

in full size this would be my only choice. build quality and reliability sacrifice mpg now and save very expensive repairs and maintenance

Put the Trd cold air intake and the trd cat back exhaust and it opens that v8 up beautifully! Run 91 ethanol free fuel and voila!! I love mine.

Don’t ever change Thomas. That intro was perfect

I love my dad's tundra. Insanely reliable, super great 4wd for snow and mud, lots of leg room, can tow well enough and honestly the power is decent and with an air intake it sounds really pleasing！

Won't the new Tundra get a 3.5L V6 twin-turbo?

Absolutely love my 2020 TRD sport, it was $53,000 Canadian as well, still cloth but has dual zone climate control, keyless entry and start as well as the Trd sway bars which help with towing a lot. It’s thirsty for sure and outdated but I like that it’s not on the leading edge of technology, I trust it to be dependable.

Tundra hand down is the best truck ever

If it’s possible, a comparison with a high trim f150 vs high trim ram rebel vs high trim Silverado 1500 would be solid! Also, good for your own purchasing purposes ;)

Time stamp 3:05 I actually prefer a physical key to these push button starters because this way I can put the key into the on position without starting the car and it just gives me more control.

Toyota: if it ain't broke, it's us

Love how Throttle house has the funny intro and extra Throttle house has the funny quick endings. You guys are killing it

Thanks for testing pickups, huge amount get sold every year, a relevant market.

Go with the tundra!!!!!!

As someone who knows three people that have had their "push to start" cars stolen I am SO happy to see a key for ignition. Even if it is "old"

Gonna go down in History… As Top 5 greatest Trucks ever made

I think the TRD OFF ROAD packaged is good in this truck

How much weight are you towing? Would a Durango fit the bill? Alex likes em.

I don’t understand what’s wrong with the key. I would rather a key than a push start

For my preference, it's actually a huge downer for me when I find out a car has "Push to Start" I like the key 100000x better

If you thought the F-150 was stiff, you’re gonna need a chiropractor after the RAM.

If I could buy a 2021 Tundra SR5 Crewmax today, I would. There is a serious availability problem right now.

I personally prefer my cars to have a real key if that means I dont have to pay for gimmicks I dont want

As long as the truck you lease isn't GM they're all good trucks. The new Sierra and Silverados have major reliability problems. My uncle had a 2019 Silverado for about 9 months, it went through 2 transmissions and then got lemon lawed. My cousin bought a 2019 Sierra at the same time and it had all kinds of electrical issues and seemed to always have a light out. It's also had the rear end replaced because it was worn out at 20k miles. Lucky for him all this was under warranty, but the new rear end is making noise and the transmission shifts hard out of first. He still has it and says that's the last GM product he'll ever buy. GM is complete garbage these days. Oh and the Sierra's dash cracked under the leather cover and is very noticible. Truck has only ~30k miles last time I saw him.

Take my advice as someone who has owned all late model trucks in 1500 and has to tow 9000lbs with them.. Nothing beats the tundra for usable power and stopping power.. nothing beats the durability of the drivetrain of the tundra.. it’s rides softer and because of that is why you get less payload and more sway when towing.. invest the $600 and put airbags in the rear end.. you’ll be able to haul another tundra in the bed while towing a 9000lb trailer and still retain the factory ride when daily driving.. I have 310k. Ike’s on my tundra and 165ish if that is towing 9k lbs to 12k lbs while also running another 1000lbs in the bed.. the brakes can take it the engine can pull it… I’ve had to replace one rear wheel bearing, water pump only cause it was leaking and I had them replace it when doing the alternator just in case.. the rear bearing cause why replace just one.. and that is it… I still daily this truck everyday have not desire to get another vehicle and when my daughter starts driving in another year I’ll hand it down to her cause even after all the abuse it’s been through.. it’s still more reliable then my wife’s last two brand new vehicles.. I take that back.. third.. The only other vehicle I would consider for a 1500 truck that drives nice in the road and is capable towing would be a GMC… not Chevy.. checks are little stiffer sprung most of the time and ride worse unloaded.. but honestly they do bot stop or tow as good as the old tundras for regular less if what paper says.. Ford’s are just broken all around.. the eco boost wil overheat when towing heavy and they ride like shit cause they chase that king of the payload paper tiger number.. Rams Independent rears ride nice however they don’t hold up well over time.. bot major issues but maintenance is much higher and the wear and tear to the drivetrain is much more noticed as everything starts leaking front to back.. I’m sure the new tundra will be 400hp and 450tq super nice interior and exterior.. but even though the economist Ford makes more power and has higher towing in paper then the 5.0 the 5.0 tows way nicer… why? Cause it’s a v8 and no matter how you change it up…. Trucks that do real work need big motors.. those 10speed transmissions do nothing to make up for it either.. turbo charged v6 are for racing v8s are made for work.. Major downside to the tundras when you work them hard.. you have to replace rotors every time you do pads cause no one makes quality rotors for them.. they all warp however even towing you’ll get 50k plus out of the pads..

The SR5 is not that great, you want the off road or TRD pro package

First of all I love yalls channel and all your reviews. I sell Toyotas in Texas and have personally owned 4 tundras. One of witch was a 2011 4.6L single cab with 314,000 miles. They have been amazing trucks that you can beat up and not feel guilty about. You buy a truck to put it to work right? Not baby it and look good at your local grocery store. My current truck is a 2012 2wd double cab with the 5.7. I have a gooseneck ball and air bags and can comfortably tow about 12k lbs. I tow cars for my dealership all the time with no problems. Also you can get the SR5 with the leather from the factory. It's just a separate package. The SR5 is the build it how you need it trim with a very long list of available options. Also you didn't mention the adjustable height head lights witch are ment to be pointed down if you are hauling something heavy and the truck squats and your front end lifts. 100% tundra all the way. Also resale value is unbeatable.

I went from a 2017 F-150 Lariat to a 2021 Tundra TRD Pro double cab, and the overall experience is so much better in the TUndra. Yes it is old tech...but that's why I love it.

Thanks to Toyota for coming out with this Tundra which started everything when it came out with the 5.7 v8 The big 3 got afraid and started building better engines, only the Silverado SS and the Harley Davidson with the supercharger was faster but them 5.4/4.6 or GM 4.8/5.3/6.0 couldn’t touch the iforce 5.7 performance wise

Hay guys this is JAMAICA again, and i've been watching yore shows for a while But i have never watch your other review SHOW, 'cause i feel like i actually like i really know you 2 😀....i feel like we are all friends just chatting about cars and trucks.....WOW....i love you guys....and yes its because u dont have a life🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣......but i seriously enjoy this "extra" keep it up .......o and i gave everyone of YOUR videos a thumbs-UP👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

I've own a few trucks over the years and now own a Tundra. I wouldnt buy anything else but Toyota

i wanna see you guys drive the titan XD

This gen Tundra is essentially the same truck as my '07 with a (very) few upgraded amenities. That said, the design is old as time, but it'll also be around long after the other trucks will have been living in the mechanic's garage more often than your own. It is a very thirsty engine, but on the flip side, it gets 11mpg whether it's towing a trailer or just itself. The tradeoff being simplicity is reliable, aka, if it ain't broke... If you're at all into aftermarket support, the Tundra is like the Lego of trucks. Everybody makes upgrade parts for it!

Candice is proud

You guys freak out having to use a key to start a vehicle 🤦‍♂️ literally the height of laziness

Please do a old vs new with pickup trucks

Titan, let’s try it out. Or Tundra TRD Sport! Get that bigger sway bar, and better looks.

"Off-road" suspension is softer, which explains the bouncing while towing. If that really bothers you, try the other non-offroad versions.

AWESOME could care less what anyone says TOYOTA TUNDRA ONE BADASS TRUCK ON PLANET EARTH. And if you think it's a gas guzzler NOT THE TRUCK FOR YOU

the key is the only reason it lasted a month outside the house. if it was push start in the gta it would end up in a container shipped somewhere else

This is my exact truck… same package!

If you need a truck to keep for a lot of years and to put a lot of miles buy this, if you need a big vehicle to compensate for something go get whatever

I'm not surprised to hear that there were issues with the infotainment. The latest generation of the Toyota infotainment set up is a real piece of junk. One of my vehicles is a 2020 Sienna and the infotainment system in it has been really unreliable. Not starting up, not recognizing our phones, etc...

Another great perk of leasing a new tundra is the free 2 year/25,000 Toyota care. Free oil changes and tire rotations. If you do the 3 year 36k mile lease you maintenance is covered for free for most of you lease. It also comes with the 3 year 36k miles bumper to bumper warranty meaning anything that might happen is covered under warranty for the whole lease. Plus high residential mean low payments.

Ram with air suspension should be next. It's what I'm looking into for my towing

Would like to see ya’ll try the Nissan Titan.

Thomas thinks no leather seats is a deficit while I consider it a boon in a utility vehicle. No scratch that. I prefer a great cloth seat in almost everything.

Reliability only goes so far on such an uncompetitive product. I don't want something this bad to last forever.

Don't say anything bad about this truck. The rElIaBiLiTy and "why fix it if ain't broke!" boys will grab their pitch forks and fire and cry

Man these cliffhanger end in this new channel is something 😂😂

Lol I found this video by searching for Throttle House Silverado. Yes do a Silverado review

I would love to see more Direct comparisons of cars that are in the same marketshare. Toyota Tundra vs Nissan Titan vs Ford F-150 vs Dodge Ram. Reliable vs Optimal.

Would love to see the Silverado/Sierra.

Can't wait for the Ram review and to see which kne you guys pick. But I think if Ferrarri can get away with an old fashioned key then Toyota definitely can especially since it's less money

Titan. It got a refresh within the last few years.

I got 20 mpg on highway doing 65mph with 35” tires on my ‘21 TRD Pro.

I'm leasing a 2021 Tundra and my fuel mileage is as follows: worst, 10 mpg. best down hill, 30 mpg best level freeway 21 mpg, it all averages out to 15.5 mpg. BTW I can't stop driving it for very long it's just way too comfortable, went to Death Valley when the outside temp read 122 degrees, the inside of my Tundra was a very nice 78 degrees, and there was no sign of overheating, in fact the coolant temp gauge didn't move

I just got myself a Silverado trail boss. Very happy with my choice. The ram has to soft suspension in the back for any actual work.

0:51 internal ND's? I'm interested in what cameras you guys are using!

guys.why dont u try nisssan titan and frontier.both are good trucks

why doesn't Toyota sell the Tundra in Australia?? there is a Market for larger utes🤔🤔

Honestly, if yall could wait then yall should wait til the next gen tundra, then compare all of the trucks.

Would like to see NISSAN Pathfinder

Well this is the last V8 u will see on a tundra guys get it while u can or wait for twin turbo V6

I love keys I don't like keyless vehicles whatsoever

The better you want it to tow the more stiff it’s gonna be without the trailer unless you got air suspension

I’m all for throttle house reviewing more truxks

I bought this exact 2021 Toyota Tundra SR5 Trail Edition in Cement and LOVE IT! It's not the TRD PRO, but then it again only cost me $48K after taxes.

Too bad you can't review the Hilux

Try a Titan for sure! The Ram would also be nice, but the coil springs tend to get a bit squishy when you put a load on them.

I have a 2020 Tundra Trd pro and I have push to start and every other feature you can get on the Tundra it’s available on the truck they just want you to pay for it. And as far as the light steering feel if I’m not mistaken it has hydraulic steering I hear it every time I turn the car off makes this noise I actually like.

GMC Sierra 3.0 Duramax, ... I would love to see your review on that. As for the other GM twin, the 6.2 & 10-speed obviously :)

"I like this truck." It sounds as if Thomas is trying to convince himself of that. Anyway, do the Japanese even drive pickups?

Just wait for the next gen coming out a little bit later

Can y’all review the Alfa Romeo?

You guys should do a comparison video with all 6 trucks : Tundra, F-150, Chevy, GMC, Ram, Titan

Try the GMC Sierra AT4 Package

More truck reviews please daddies

It'll prob be the Ford or Tundra. The Rams are nice but I'll be in the shop a ton. Even the new ones are not that great overall and everyone knows anything GM is gonna have a recall on it 2 weeks later.

I’m glad to see they’re considering all their options for trucks

I truly enjoy turn key more than a button.

I actually was in a rental Rava and it shocked me

Here is my 2 cents, buy a used Tundra because they do last forever. My brother has a 2011 that he bought for 15k and it runs like new.

Cant wait until you try the gmc/silverado trucks

I really wanted to like this truck. I read all the reviews. I knew all about it’s horrible gas mileage but something about it’s old school toughness spoke to me. Then you test drive one. And feel all the hard surfaces in the interior. And feel how the shifter is all loose and hard plastic. And they want 50k for it. I’m so glad they are finally doing a new one. Buyers want toyota reliability but the interior needs to match the price tag.

You should test the Titan!

Recorded horizontally:)

get the ford f150 for sure you cant go wrong i have the toyota and am waiting on the lighting because the cost of running the toyota is so so much.

yall should look at the f250 diesel

I think I know why Thomas used the Arnold voice - it's because James is visible hitting the gym.

Ahh, man. Thought this was the other channel. Still good, still good. *pulls up pants

Tundra is a truck that just works. Other brands have the gizmos and stuff but the shit is unreliable. I came from a 2018 ford raptor and it was horrible. Glad to be back in a 21 tundra trd pro now.

I have a 2018 tundra limited. I added a leitner bed rack. Auxiliary lights, 3 - 2 lift kit, TRD wheels, preditor step rails, cargo boxes on bed rack. 33in ko2. The color is magnetic Grey. Every week I get compliments on my truck. I daily drive it. It has been the best vehicle I bought. Reliability, comfort and power is amazing. I hope you decide on getting this truck. You won't be disappointed. I would love to send pics of my truck to show you what I have done to it. Let me know .
