When it comes to pickup trucks, most people, including those in the Killeen area, already have an idea of what they want to drive, or they already have an idea of what they think they should drive. And there are certainly pickups that fit into the American idea of what a “true” pickup truck is. However, many car companies make pickup trucks these days, and it isn’t always easy for first time buyers, or those thinking about a replacement, to decide on which pickup is best for their needs. However, the Toyota Tundra has outperformed these other pickups in areas of affordability, features, and towing – areas where “true” pickup trucks show their true colors.
Toyota Tundra Affordability
When it comes to affordability, the Toyota Tundra has the advantage over the competition. With an MSRP, including destination charge, of $33, 965, it beats out the Silverado 1500 Crew Cab 2WD Work Truck Short Box by $2,200. It’s $190 less than the 1500 Crew Cab 4X2 Tradesman SWB.
The comparably equipped price on the Tundra CrewMax 4X2 SR5 4.6L V8 is nearly $4200 to $2300 less than the competition. When it comes to saving on a pickup truck, the best bet is the Toyota Tundra. Affordability is still a very important consideration for many Killeen drivers, especially when pickups don’t get the kind of gas mileage other smaller vehicles do. But, then, not many people are buying a pickup for its gas mileage.
Toyota Tundra Features
Some features come standard on all pickups, but the Tundra still has an advantage on many of these when placed up against the competition. Things that you might take for granted, like power windows, power locks, and power mirrors, which are standard on the Tundra, are optional features on other pickups. Bluetooth hands free accessibility is also standard with the Toyota Tundra.
Toyota Tundra Towing
Nearly every pickup truck commercial shows how this or that truck can tow a certain amount. Pickup truck drivers in Killeen may have used their truck’s towing ability to its maximum amount. Again, here is where the Toyota Tundra beats out the competition.
Standard towing capacity with the Tundra is 6700 lbs. This is over a thousand pounds more than the closest competition from the Silverado 1500 Crew Cab 2WD Work Truck Short Box. The same goes for maximum towing capacity.
Whether Killeen customers are looking at a truck for its towing or its affordability, they could do much worse than to test drive the Toyota Tundra. In features, towing, and affordability, the Tundra outperforms all its competitors.
