The
new 2014 Toyota Tundra is truly a beast of a workhorse but how well does it
stack up against its competition?
The Ford F-150 has long dominated the market in full size trucks but its competition has slowly been gaining momentum. The Toyota Tundra has a 4.0L V6 engine putting out 236 horsepower in its base model while the F-150 only has a 3.7L V6 in their standard model. In terms of MPG performance, the F-150 has a slight edge over the Tundra getting about 17MPG in the city and 23MPG on the highway. With an upgraded suspension from the previous model, the new Tundra has the smoothest ride among the full size pick-up trucks. The Tundra features a better transmission than the F-150, which translates to better towing capacity as well as having a shorter turn radius, meaning that you can maneuver it through a tight job site with relative ease.
Toyota Tundra comes in every configuration for all of your needs: whether you're a carpenter who needs the extended bed for hauling drywall, or the job foreman who has a 4 man crew and needs the space of the crew cab, which also features reclining seats and full size doors. The Tundra is also designed with the working man in mind, featuring larger door handles, ample headroom for hardhats, a deck rail system and a tow hitch integrated into the body. The 2014 Toyota Tundra has a few standard features that its competitors do not such as a back-up camera, Bluetooth connectivity and blind spot monitoring. Toyota has also maintained the quality interior that consumers have come to expect in a professional grade truck; which in the 1794 model is all leather interior as well as upgraded stereos and sound equipment, heated and cooled seats.
The Tundra starts at $25,000 MSRP for its base model, which is a standard cab and standard bed, while the F-150 is a little over $24,000 for the same base model. The premium edition of the F-150 is the "King Ranch" which has an MSRP of $43,920 and the Tundra "1794" edition starts at $44,270 for its base options. Toyota also features Toyota Care which covers factory scheduled maintenance for 2 years. When it comes to the Tundra versus F-150, the Tundra is the clear winner in overall performance and affordability. Come check out the new Tundras at Dayton Toyota in South Brunswick, New Jersey.
