2023 Tundra Platinum or Limited: What Makes The Most Sense? 

Id pick the Limited, although i love both trims, the Limited has more of what I want

I agree!!!!

Congrats! Send me pics!

If you can't afford $64k, you can't afford $59k either, sweetie.

@@user-mh5qg5jb7d for many people this is true, but they make these various trims at different price points specifically to attract varying budgets. My grandma used to say, you can’t squeeze blood out of a turnip. People can afford it or they can’t. Blessings to you.

I'd like to say $20k too high. Just spent $92 on my Platinum (Canadian), and I'm having some regrets.

​wow, what would a trd pro cost over there? I just got a 2023 trd pro for 73k US before taxes

Im sure prices are about to go up for the 2024 year

All trucks are overpriced

Looks cheap v Ford etc

Id probably go Platinum 4x4 if it was me. Luxury and you still get the 4x4 for the snow

Yes sir, Limited has them as well. The website was wrong 👍🏼

Yes sir! Mistake on the Toyota website

Mine too

Yes sir! Spoke with some viewers about that. The toyota website is wrong. I even went back and looked at videos of my time with the 2022 limited, and it had the sequential signals. My bad!

I was just speaking with another viewer, his has them too. Toyota website is wrong. I even went back and looked at videos of my time with the 2022 Limited, and they had them.

@@TundraDude34 love the IG and RU-vid channel always informative 🤙🏾

@hawaiianquicksilvahtundra I appreciate you watching!

Same her

This video should help with that! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DsioOzH6y_4.htmlsi=SoRxe2DIYbT7uKBo

Yeah that was a mistake on the Toyota website. I went back and looked, and one of the 2022 Limited press vehicles i had was equipped with sequential tail lights

I was attempting to add the best package bundles available for both. But if it makes you feel better, lets subtract 3k off of the Platinum. Then its a bit closer

When I shopped my truck I priced the platinum vs limited with TRD off road and I thought it was about 2k difference. The only reason I didn’t get the limited is because up in the Northeast I couldn’t build a limited that had off road/panoramic/and JBL. I really never needed the locker in any of my Tundras but I love to crank the radio and love the panoramic roof. For that small difference in price especially on a lease the Platinum to me has the best look of all the new tundras and had everything I wanted. Thanks for the comparison though. I love all your videos

@alexthomasiii225 i appreciate you watching!

Yes! Old video. You can get the TRD Off Road on Platinum for 2024

Yes ..I found it ... I'm so happy they have made this available ...That's exactly the what I''m getting... Maybe in the Blueprint..? @@TundraDude34

TRD PRO

Mistake on the Toyota page 👍🏼. Limiteds have it!

Yes! They are on there. Its a mistake on the Toyota website

I was attempting to add the best packages available for both, but subtract the 3k and there you have it

I thought the same until I climbed in with a sweaty back. You gotta have sweat to feel the so-called ventilation. I don't think it's air conditioned seats, rather, there's a fan that blows cabin-temp air through them. You can hear the fan actuate when you turn it on. In my platinum, i can only feel it in my lower back and under my knees because that's how the stippled hole pattern is laid out. I wish it hit my ass, balls, higher back, etc. but there ain't holes in those spots. Disappointed by this "feature" too.

Depends on the type of clothing, with certain synthetic materials just don't breath like cotton

I love mine, I couldn't go without it now

@@Caymon8 if the seats ONLY cooled my balls, I’d be fine. If my balls are cool, everything else seems to fall in line LOL.

I always integrate Tacos because of the age old question, half ton vs midsize which do i need? And i will continue to do so with the advent of the new Tacoma, but Tundras are my interest, and TundraDude shall remain 😁. Have a great day man!

@@TundraDude34 You are doing a good job sharing your thoughts about the Tundra. I am a big Tundra fan, but the new gen will need a lot of weeks and improvements to become the number one 1/2 ton truck it used to be (I do not mean in sales, but more like a what you get for what you pay for). To me, the 2nd gen was that. However, what scares me is the trend. They are getting very, very expensive. I do not know what needs to happen, but if that trend continues, the only way I am getting a new Tundra will be a picture poster that I can hang it on my wall, very childish but this is my reality. Even SR5s are hitting $60k+ OTD. How low can we go in the trim level to get a 1/2 ton truck with 4x4 that costs less than $50k OTD? If the economy tanks, that will make the manufacturers lower truck prices, but then many people will not have jobs/money to afford them anyway. The other option would be to offer trucks with less/no options to make them more affordable. Or hopefully, we will start earning more money to once again being able to buy them. Or more & more people will look into the used market or buy midsize trucks.

Agreed Limited is a great trim. But lots of people, like myself, just get trucks because I love the idea of throwing whatever I want in the back (fishing gear, camping, lumber) and it’s big enough to carry, but I never tow and hardly ever push max payload. And I just like the Tundra :)

@@seanaxel1004 Hear, hear!

I get that, and valid points, but not everyone that utilizes the features of a truck, maximizes payload or tow capacity. That said, In my 2017 1794 I added about 200 lbs of sound deadening material, power steps, and a snug top tonneau cover. If I load 3 of my buddies for a golf trip, with our weight, our clubs, and the added weight of my upgrades, I’m at my payload capacity. But the 5.7L v8 doesn’t have a clue nor does the truck act as if there is an issue. I think the payload numbers listed are ridiculously low in all brands, but especially in the Toyota, as it’s over engineered and under rated. Love our trucks.

@Ronaldalan114 follow up question, what kind of clubs do you use? 😁

@@TundraDude34 oh boy, now you opened a can lol Scotty cameron putter huntington beach 1. same as a Newport 1, just with my home town name HB, which is where Scotty (Don) grew up and went to HS Cleveland wedges 46, 52, 56, and 60 degrees Mizuno JPX 919 5 thru 9 irons Titleist hybrid (this replaces my 3 and 4 irons) Cobra 3 and 5 woods I have 4 drivers, lately I’ve been playing a 20 year old Cleveland 9 degree 460 cc driver and just smashing it. Has always been my favorite, just went back after struggling with my Titleist driver I also have some mizuno blades…I love them…I can’t state enough how much I love them…when I’m playing good and consistent. There is nothing like hitting a blade on the screws. And I’ll add, there is nothing more painful and game wrecking than not hitting a blade on the screws. I got them when I was a 2 handicap…didn’t need them, wasn’t warranted, but man I loved them. I rarely play them, maybe a few times in the late summer early fall when my game is solid from more frequent play, but I don’t score nearly as well with them as I do the JPX’s. Regardless, I’ll never play another iron other than mizuno. Told you that was a can of worms 😂

Im glad you said that! I was pretty sure the Limited i test drove for a week had them as well, but the Toyota website says they aren’t available on Limited. The website is wrong

I have the Hybrid version not sure if that makes a difference Thanks for your video I’ve been wondering the difference from mine compared to a Platinum
