All the big half-ton truck manufactures have given their models a recent refresh or a full redesign. Toyota though has soldiered on with its Tundra which was last redesigned in 2014. Let’s take a look and see if the 2019 model is still competitive. Prices range from $31,420 for the base SR 4x2 trim up to $50,430 for the Platinum 5.7L 4x4 CrewMax trim.

The 2019 Toyota Tundra TRD Sport model has multiple stylish and functional upgrades. Upfront the grille has been painted to match the body color, the hood scoop is specific to the TRD model, and the headlights are LED units. Underneath the 4x4 gear consists of Bilstein tuned Dampeners and TRD sway bars.

Under the hood is a 5.7-liter iForce V-8 engine makes 391 horsepower and 401 lb-ft. of torque. Fuel economy checks in at 14 MPG combined which is significantly worse than the competition. These poor figures are due in part to an outdated 6-speed automatic transmission when the competition has 10-speed transmissions.
