    In all honesty I think the new Tundra , if it is plug in , will probably give a range of 60 miles unloaded .

    I'm sure they've done their research on typical drives/commutes for typical owners around town.
    I read this a bit ago. It's a really interesting article on some research/Surveys with the general population on hybrids and Ev's.
    You gotta get past the first page opinion piece, but the rest of the paper is a good read, even though it's pretty old.

    The Rav4 Prime is still a hybrid , with the option of going in EV mode with a 42 mile range. Which honestly if the tundra does this it will cover most people work commutes or in town trips...So you could plug it in everyday if you wanted or just run it in hybrid mode always.

    Yep. Our trim levels are FAR more alike than different, especially with all the features that can be had at the SR5 trim level. We literally have one drivetrain. Toyota doesn’t have nearly-endless options for engine/trans/rear axle combinations. They don’t make us get into the upper trim levels to get the 5.7L or a different transmission. The base SR5 isn’t a 4-cylinder.

    Convenience and creature comforts aside, to me “what makes a Pro a Pro” and “what makes a Platinum a Platinum” are largely cosmetic. Pro has a grille, fake hood scoop, shocks, and a bed stamp. The Platinum has color matching and stitched leather. The 1794 has orange leather, interior accents, and a different badge. Most of the convenience and safety features that come with those trim levels can be had on the lower trims as well. Sure, some can’t.

    Different shades of lipstick on the same reliable and capable pig. They don’t play the endless options game the domestics do. This is a good thing.

    It will be interesting to see how the next gen plays into this as well. Will it be the exact same truck underneath the various trims as well? Or more options for drivetrains and cab/bed?

    Yep. This is exactly how I see the Platinum. Same truck. Different lipstick.

    Based on Mike's comments to Truck Talk last year, I could honestly see having fewer options.

    Marketing can play it any way they want to. I just don’t understand why they don’t release a teaser for people deciding now. What I mean is if they plan on producing it this year for 2022, why not post a few pictures or specs of what’s to come? Then people seeing it might be like “that looks good. Maybe I’ll wait a few months to see it instead of buying a competitors truck right now.” Like power tool manufacturers do. They always tease new product lines coming out with a future release date. But in the end they know his they want to go about it. I just know a lot of people looking now because of production delays with 8-10 week windows that have put deposits down on F150’s, F250’s or other HD’s not knowing if the tundra will get more payload or towing capacity.

    I like to think of Toyota as the Apple of Automakers. Both tend to play their cards close to their chest until they have everything locked down, and are ready to release. Everyone else seems to just drop information all the time, and sometimes things don’t work out and they have to backpedal which results in consumer backlash. That’s just my opinion though.

    Another thing to consider with a strong hybrid system is the option for regen braking. This could work great for towing, when driving my dads model S you hardly ever actually use the brakes. You learn the stopping distance pretty quick and just let off the “gas” pedal and the electric motors start generating power to charge the batteries. This system while very different, acts similar to exhaust brakes on diesels especially when towing.

    Because of 2021 sales, if they released some part of the truck now than sales would drop for toyota so people would wait to buy the 2022 model. I'm guessing upwards of 225,000 sales for the first year of the new gen depending on marketing..

    They sold 196k in 07. You might be close if the truck and marketing are good. But those numbers dropped way down and didn’t slowly come back until 2012.

    Funny to see everyone on the edge of their seats, when in actuality, no credible source promised you anything. Toyota might release in a month or two for all anyone knows. The sites saying that the dealers have the info are the same sites that posted pics of a Nissan Titan lol, click baiters.

    Ok my prediction on the power train someone probably already said this from above but I think its going to the v6 twin turbo that lexus has 416hp and 450lb torque to the front wheels and the hybrid powering the rear wheels from the rav4 with 53hp and extra 90lb torque or it could be a bigger than that. so an all wheel drive system with 10 speed automatic used in the LS500... Output numbers 470hp and 540lb of torque that sounds pretty reasonable my guess is that the new tundra won't be as bulky looking at the camouflage picture the body seems more sleeker and aerodynamic compared to our brick houses.. coefficient drag will be definitely better on this new tundra which mpg will skyrocket upwards in the high 20s. You guys have to understand their could be a bigger battery pack or maybe dual motors for the rear axle so those power numbers are being underrated untill we hear the final numbers.. now I say this to the rear because remember like 2 years ago when they took pictures out in the open they had the odd looking rear passenger wheel. Look like electric motor to be honest...

    The 2009 to 2011 drop was because of the recession, and is not an indication of the truck's likeability. All manufactures experienced the same drop.

    Kind of funny that they'd share 3 posts in a row advertising a truck hardly anyone can seem to get at this point. In the comments, they referred someone to pressroom.toyota.com for up-to-date info.

    At this point, they gotta know they're teasing everyone, right?

    Those posts already have several questions about the 2022. They're ignoring most of them.

    2008 was the start of the recession which explains the drop in numbers. 2008 to 2010 were some some tough years to be in business.

    True. I want reliability. I could have had all these thing with another truck but I chose this one. The tailgate is cheesy, the ramboxes kill bed space and I'll stick with knobs.
    What the hell is going on up there with those prices?
