Official 2022 Tundra 3rd Gen Thread

Stupidly, their build tool is based on real allocation availability.

 

Dealer is putting in a request for color change to lunar rock. He’s not very hopeful but still going to try.

I would think going away from solar they would be more inclined

 

Where’d you find it??? And are you trading the platinum!?

 

Outdated avatar. I don't have a platinum. Dealer is in AZ i reserved and almost took delivery of a plat hybrid but really want pro in lunar.

 

New to forum:

got my official allocation for a TRD Pro last Thursday. Estimated delivery is early to mid August.

coming over from a 2018 Tacoma TRD Off-Road with a whole slew of goodies including:

• King shock/SPC UCA/Deaver Stg2 suspension
• UpTOP Overland roof/TRUSS racks
• BD lights everywhere
• Much much more

Put in deposits to three different dealers in November. One still hasn’t contacted me, another wanted to Jack me $101k (dollars…not pesos), and the third agreed to MSRP.

truck will be Lunar Rock with red interior. I’m adding the trifold tonneau and black tailgate letters. Already have arrangements to have the truck wrapped in Xpel stealth PPF. I live in the Colorado Mountains so PPF is a must anyway.

Super Stoked

PS the Method 305s with 35” tires and custom center caps are going to find their way onto the Pro, too

 

are those 17's ?

 

Where did you find those center caps?

 

Those are Meso customs center caps.

 

Damn found a platinum hybrid for 69k.

anyone else between a platinum and a pro? The ambient lighting and all black liner is tempting.

 

If you take it, I got dibs on the Lunar Pro haha

 

It’s solar not lunar. Waiting to hear back on the request to change to lunar

 

Oh yea, that’s right…

 

Bro just do the pro that’s what you want lol solar is sweet tho!

 

Unofficial 2023 Tacoma renderings. Kinda cool.

The Tacoma has always been legendary in the off road community. If the new Tacoma looks like this Toyota will be in a world of hurt. I am moving to a 22 tundra tomorrow and turning in my 6th Tacoma in a row. I have never had a Tacoma fail me and the Tacomaworld community is absolutely amazing but if the real thing is like these renderings it will not be good.

 

Why are people doing renderings? This is what the new Tacoma will look like, with a more normal grill for ICE trucks

 

What’s the back look like?

 

Probably similar to a Tundra I'd imagine.

 

Cue the renderings. It's the "I'd imagine" but in a visual format.

 

I have been set on a Pro and when I saw a neighbors who posted his platinum pics here a few days ago I changed my mind. Seeing it drive by made me mad he already put the perfect build together on which I cannot build since he already did. Jealousy looms large. The platinum would certainly be my second choice and if done right has more things I like to the Pro. Love the Platinum interior most

MSRP. Is cheap!!!! But it’s just a guess!!,,, I also saw a bright bright yellow in an add too??

 

Damn I was hoping the 23 color was a blue or sand color

 

Something I've not seen asked, which doesn't mean it hasn't been, but how's the cruise control on the 3rd gen?
Is it a steaming pile like both of my 4runners and my tundra or is actually usable?

 

Not sure if this is what you mean. But my wife's rav4 cc made the steering super tight and barely able to stay in the lanes. Then I found out (on here) that if you press and hold the cc button. It reverts to the normal cruise and not the radar cruise. Steering is nice and normal.

 

No sir. My 01, 16, and my wife's 22 4runner all let the speed drop 5-6mph under the set speed while going up hill. Then it drops 3 gears, floors it to 5 over, lays off until back under and repeat.
My tundra does similar, but not as bad. It let's speed fall under, then plays hot potato between 4,5, & 6.

 

Classic Toyota Cruise Control. What a waste of the best cruise stalk interface out there. 30 years and running. Cruise works much better in S4 or S5

 

I drove mine from a dealership in Kansas down to Austin which basically was I-35 the whole entire way “8 hours” and the with the radar Cruise control and lane monitoring I barely had to put any effort into driving the damn thing. Love it!

 

Tundra's cruise control is way better than my 3rd gen Tacoma

 

I LOVE the sport wheels however, I HATE cleaning them. I hand wash all the cars once a week and dammit I never look forward to these wheels until they’re finished.

 

The Lane Centering Assist feature was one of the biggest surprises to me! Pretty cool.

I did not expect this truck to drive itself hands free (until the warning pops up) to the point of stopping completely in traffic then picking up again. My previous Forester had the adaptive cruise, but was not good in traffic.

I just discovered the auto brake button above the ebrake, also useful on long drives.
