The full-size 2024 Tundra continues on the same course it charted when it debuted in 2000.
Toyota Tundra SR5 retains the standard 3.5 Litre V6 engine but offers an optional V8 for those seeking more power. The TRD Pro caters to off-road enthusiasts and comes powered with a V8 engine for maximum capability.
Tundra base models – starting at $60,000 – deliver a maximum towing capacity of 12,000 lbs and a maximum payload of 1,820 lbs.
How to optimize your Tundra to tackle heavy loads
Even though your Tundra provides a towing capacity of 12,000 lbs, it will start to sag when you install a truck camper in the bed or hook up a large trailer. The Toyota Tundra was never meant to be loaded to the max!
Towing a trailer is hard enough for the average driver, but trying to tow a large trailer when the rear end of your Tundra is sagging can be dangerous. A sagging rear end lifts the front end too high compromising steering and braking while contributing to dangerous loss of control of your vehicle.
Has the word ‘sagging’ ever been associated with something positive? If your truck or vehicle displays rear end sag when towing a trailer, it’s imperative that you find a proper solution.
Truck sag and squat is the visible effect of weight on the rear axle causing the front end of the vehicle to point upwards while the back end hangs down. Most people underestimate the severity of driving a vehicle in this position. Here are 5 reasons why truck sag is a big deal:
- Too much sag causes misalignment
- Misaligned tires will cause uneven tire wear and decrease fuel mileage
- Braking distance will be increased, i.e., it will take longer to stop.
- Steering will feel loose, causing you to lose proper control
- Your headlights will be aimed up in the trees instead of on the road
