    What is your current tow vehicle? Combined weight of dump trailer and Kubota?

    Assuming that’s a small tractor, any Tundra will pull your trailers no problem. Plenty of people use the older v8 Tundras for that kind of work. The main issue is you’ll run out of payload from the tongue weight, especially with that dump trailer and tractor. So maybe a lower trim double cab truck would give you more payload?

    You should probably know there are ‘24 failures related to the massive engine recall as well. I’m not confident the issue is sorted out. There is an argument to be made that Toyota did not include ‘24s in the recall because that would force a stop sale, but the fact that there are failed ‘24s means the recall will likely be expanded to include them.

    If I was daily driving and hauling a 14’ dump and a tractor I’d be using a 2011-2019 Chevy 6.0 gasser long box. Not our Tundra.

    Welcome from LA (Lower Alabama)! I've seen several Tundras with snowplows on them when I have gone skiing, and several on this site have talked about their snowplows. I'll let them chime in for more.

    Welcome from NY.

    I think I would wait another month for the 2025's if your thinking about a 2024. By then most of the issues should be fixed.
