Tundras To Sedona 2021

Lol! Every T2S is winning.

Tomorrow morning they’ll do prizes. I will not get one of those. I do the whole run, pedal to the floorboard. But I bring 4.7 at 7k elevation. Max is max. But it’s always fun!

 

Glad you guys are having a blast!

 

I’m gonna guess Bruce.

 

Yes. Only 2 LT trucks in the class so… Fastest overall probably going to the SDHQ built 600hp supercharged truck, but going to be close.

 

Took some pictures today.

Decided to do a night run on Schnebly Hill

 

Holy crap it's cold outside.

 

Nice and chilly…

 

@Sunnier,
Nice to meet you this weekend

 

How did the 2022 pro perform?

 

Surprisingly well. They brought out a pro to cinders and a limited to the saterday pictures and raffle

 

Damn I’m stupid jealous! Can’t wait for next year!

 

Anyone care to share more about the 22 pro that was there? I saw the videos on Instagram. Also passed the 22 pro on my way up to flag today.

 

What do you want to know? It ran the cinder course at 45MPH - just 2MPH slower than my time.

 

anything really at this point. Was the added torque/power noticeable?

 

They didn’t push it.

 

@ColoradoTJ

 

Makes sense wonder what fuel mileage he got driving it over from Cali? Did he have to sign something about staying quiet about it?

 

I didn’t hear any discussion re mpg.

 

What do you want to know? Spent the evening around the fire with the Toyota engineers. Toyota had Pandra from the Camp Fire roll in to the middle of go fast Friday in the TRD Pro. Sat beside Allyn(Pandra) around the fire last night, super awesome dude. More Toyota people showed up this morning with another 22 Limited still in full camouflage with donuts and drinks for everyone. Brought a robot built by kids that throws balls also. Let everyone come up and tear off the camouflage before the raffle this morning. Yes, Iforce Max has transmission cooler. Lol.

Nothing official, there are no production 22’s, only pre-production so might be off. Little under 19 mpg according to truck, again pre-production so could be off. I noticed a few slight differences between the trucks, was all over them.

 

It’s impressive.

I don’t know. Touched the shocks immediately after, they were really hot.

 

I talked to him just a little bit and the drive from Cali with the Pro. He drove it out here in Eco mode and to get 16.4-16.8 MPG. He didn't tell me how fast he was driving, but considering it is a pre-production vehicle, those are not official numbers.

The interior was pretty nice, compared to the previous models. He said that they previous models were based off of the SR5 trim. The new one is actually based off of "premium" trim. For example, this means that BOTH front seats are 8 way powered (slide, height [knee and butt], recline, and LUMBAR.

Another thing he pointed out to me was the arm rest on the door. This model had a larger flat surface, allowing you comfortably rest you position your arm there while driving.

I asked him when the turbo and the electric motor works in conjunction with the gas engine. The long and short of it was, that they engage quite a bit to work with the 10 speed transmission. The electric motor works to fill in the "turbo lag", so the power band is consistent. I wish I could have test driven it to experience that.

 

Ok, photo dump.

This is from Saturdays afternoon trail run on Greasy Spoon and Diamondback Gulch area that I lead.


Obligatory group shot with @TRDFerguson (MGM TRD Off Road), @BiggHertz (White Platinum) and I.

Had to get a glamour shot of ATxAT.

Zoom in on the front driver side wheel. I aired down to 20 PSI and didn't realize how much the sidewalls flexed. I'm on KO2 275/75/R18s. I think I need bigger tires.

 

Nice Shot of ATxAT

Saturday morning group photo pano.

 

How the FCUK did I miss this?!

 

Been asleep for 4 months?

 

Well, been out of town for 3 (5/25-9/6), but I don't know how I missed this thread all together, between front page and this section. I may have forgotten to look here, I've been busy as hell. I don't fucking know, I'm just mad. And I'm going camping in Sedona in two weeks.

 

Well keep your peepers peeled, hopefully they will announce the dates for APRIL soon!

 

Just a heads up… it’s cold up there. Who knew!
