Unfortunately, some people get really bored easily. But he’s still got the right to do whatever he wants with it. I’d personally keep this one forever, though. It’s going to be even more of a valuable car years from now.
I appreciate your passion for the 2021 TRD Pro Tundra. I actually purchased two 2021 TRD Pros in 2021. I have a Lunar Rock as well as a Magnetic Gray model. My son drives the Magnetic Gray truck. We do not ever plan on getting rid of either truck. They will remain as “Forever” trucks. Thanks for making videos that provide many useful insights and information.
I recently sold my 2023 Tundra and bought a 2024 Chevy Trail Boss with the 5.3 V8 and I'm a Toyota guy. I just had to go back to a truck with a V8. The 2023 Tundra was a good truck, but no V8. Having said all that, I really like the Chevy and will probably never go back to a Toyota truck, without a V8. I almost did what you did and bought and older 2020 or 2021 TRD PRO Tundra, but I couldn't find any at a decent price, so I went with the Chevy. You might want to keep this one for a while or do what I did and by a Chevy. Also, the Ford 5.0 V8 is and amazing engine too. That was my second choice. But if you want new V8 truck, its either Ford or Chevy - sorry Toyota - we didn't leave Toyota, Toyota left us!
I went and bought a 2021 trd sport with 11k miles.. i would never buy a gm, ram or a ford over Toyota.. unless you accept having to break down at 36k as a common issue
That exactly what I did, once trading in my 2022 tundra for a 2020 5.3 Chevy, I loved it way more, should have just kept my 2019 limited tundra but I happy w the Chevy, and yes the 5.0 is nice too
@@Art-si7cjmost household don’t even need a truck at all. Since everything can be delivered and if you need to move to a new house. You’ll just rent a U-haul truck anyway
It's not about need just a truck for just your "home". There are numerous reasons you would enjoy a truck like this. Camping, off-roading, overlanding, and just great space and use overall. If you can't afford this trim there's nothing wrong with getting the base sr5 for nearly 20k less. Not everyone lives the same lifestyle lol
I find it kind of hilarious that all the reasons he loves this truck, like simplicity, durability, reliability… are all things he never takes advantage of because he trades everything in after 10,000 miles.
Understand he’s running a TH-cam channel. He has to change out vehicles to keep us entertained. “Fresh Content”. No one wants to see the same truck over and over again.
Love this. I bought a Certified 2020 Tundra Pro 2 years ago with 4K miles, so 96k mile warranty left. Did all the mods I wanted and will keep this for next 10+ years at least. Good luck with it !!!
@@Toddramsey-i5n Yes. A certified pre owned used Toyota comes with a 100k warranty. I don’t think bumper to bumper, but engine and drivetrain for sure. So if you can find a low mileage vehicle you can get a great warranty.
Like he mentioned in the video, its the last of its kind. Never get rid of it, and when you get to old give/sell it to your kids it will outlive them too
21 TRD Pro owner here approves. I could roll my eyes at a few things but overall, beast of a truck. I actually like those tires a lot too, never even considered them. Keep it!
I think you did fine, especially when any electronic thing that goes wrong with new trucks out of warrenty could be thousands of dollars. Still driving my 2007, 5.7L with 167,000.00 miles and stll debating on doing what you just did. you are an inspiration, thanks.
Think you got a great deal on a beautiful truck! I have a 2017 TRD Pro which is bulletproof and modded out to what I wanted. Good luck and safe driving.
I used to be like you, I've probably purchased well over 50 vehicles in my life, never had one more than 6-12mo. Then I landed on Toyotas, I've had my 5.7L Sequoia for over 6 years. I've come to appreciate the reliability a lot, and trading/selling cars that frequently not financially smart. You can probably afford it with the channel, and you need to keep that freshy content, but you'll miss this Tundra when you sell it :).
@@UntamedMotors I had a 2017 Tundra TRD, bought it fresh from the showroom for 36k out the door...then sold it when I was at the tail end of my buy/sell kick I always go on. Still regretting it to this day...but the Sequoia has been better for the kiddos and vacations.
My 2021 just hit 71,000 miles. Just bought my second set of Nitto Ridge Grappler's 285/70/18. Amazing tires on an amazing truck. My TRD Pro is a double cab because I need a full functioning bed. I have added RCI rocksliders, a lightbar in the hood, Leer tonneau cover, blacked out on the chrome in the cab, Stillen cold air intake, added a transmission cooler since I do a decent amount of towing between 5K-7K, and wash and wax her every month. Keep up the great videos and enjoy the greatest 1/2 ton truck ever made.
I have the same truck, I test drove a 24’ pro, it was a nice truck too but it didn’t offer enough of an improvement in any area for we to buy it. In fact, after driving both back to back, I can honestly say I enjoy the 21 more. Much better turn radius, real engine and exhaust sound, and has plenty enough power to do everything I want and some. I haven’t had a single issue with mine in 3 years of ownership. For me it’s very likely this will be my forever truck.
I love this video. No matter how long you keep this one. Your previous videos of this truck were a big part of my deciding to upgrade to this Tundra TRD Pro from my old 4Runner. I was going to place an order, however Toyota stopped production to move to the new V6 and I just happened to luck into a new 21 Lunar Rock TRD Pro (one of only two available in my state) at that time. 10,686 miles later KBB puts the trade in value at 52k with my original options. But I love this truck and plan to keep it. Thank you for your channel and sharing all the information you do.
Thanks brother! 🙏🏼 Appreciate that kind feedback. Glad I was able to help you in your decision to buy this amazing truck. There’s nothing quite like it imo. 👌
You got a great deal! Not a single one in the entire country with that low mileage. They are selling 30k+ miles for the same price and without all the goodies. Awesome buy!
I agree with you the Trd pro is the best looking pick up, a lot of people missed the point of Toyota TRD which is made for off road not towing, or other specs that the American brands offer yet it still meets that criteria but where Toyota shines is in the off-road environment and this Tundra you have really projects it. Very good looking truck 👍🏻
Your truck looks great and I think you scored on it. You're not gonna find many like that anymore. Congratulations and I hope you keep it for a long time. I have a 2021 Tundra TRD Pro and I was lucky to get it new in 2021 for 56K. I love driving it. Best truck I've ever owned. I'll be keeping mine for many years to come. 🤠
It's November 2024 and I'm here searching TH-cam for videos on this Tundra which is, to this day, the best truck to buy. I'm on the market and I refuse to buy the new model.
I've seen this same truck (same color) for sale with no modifications for the same price you paid with far more miles. So no, you definitely did not overpay. You essentially got a new truck with such low miles!! This is an amazing truck. One of the best ever made and one that I too hope to own very soon. Congratulations!!
Just glad you and Mrs. Untamed are back on team Toyota/ Lexus. I just traded in my 18 Pro Tacoma for a new Lexus nx300. But just before that I bought a Daihatsu Hijet Kei truck so I thought I didn't need two trucks..If we wanna go offroad my Ms has a 16 4runner. And for Sunday afternoons I have an 18 Yaris with a bunch of Trd junk on it. Low slow and a blast to drive. I started watching your channel for the Toyota content.
I just bought a 2021 Tundra SR5 with 28,000 mi on it. I'm so glad you made this purchase, and I really do hope you don't get rid of this one. There is still a lot of content for modifications on these trucks platforms to entertain us lol I am modifying my truck heavily, and would like to talk to you about some of the modifications I am planning on making to mine.
The fact of the matter is the 21 tundra is the last of the non-trickery full-size trucks out there. There was no active fuel management. Turbo chargers. 10 speed transmission. All of those things the other manufacturers had done and proven unreliable
I’m biased too! I have the same truck with 23K on it! It’s a rock solid no worries truck. Good luck with the ‘new’ truck; hope to see it often on your channel!
i agree at this point but thats why you wait on buying the first year of a new model. this platform is tried and true however. i just saw that video and ouch that sound of whatever broke.
Well, we really do not know what the idiots at TFL did to that little Tacoma. So, I do not even blame the truck or Toyota for that. Yes, it is a brand new whatever gen, but I do not even know if it has a completely new transfer case compared to the previous one (it might), and it broke because is a new tech (blah-blah-blah: it is still a part-time 4x4 like the previous one). Yes, the Limited version gets a bit different transfer case, but the Off-Road version, come on. My other point is, If you follow the books how to brake in a new truck/car, TFL did absolutely the opposite what it should be done. They do not care, a year later or sooner, they will sell the truck and it will become someone else's problem. TFL in my opinion are bunch of idiots. Enthusiasts my a**.
@@GoodSamLegend I agree 100% with everything you said! I have been saying that for a long time, the guy on "Driving Sports" is very similar to the TFL idiots as well. TFL has certain brands that they go to great lengths to trash and try and make them look bad. They especially like to try and make Toyota look bad. There are so many times you can tell that they are intentionally making the vehicles get stuck on easy terrain that a skilled driver might be able to drive through in 2WD. TFL is pure garbage!
I just got my first Toyota ever, I traded my gladiator in for a 2021 Tundra trd amazing trucks. I’m super stoked for overland camping adventures and the insane amount of room!
I imagine these vehicles are going to really hold their value especially if the new 2024 platform doesn’t pass the test of time. That is a beautiful truck 🛻
This truck is going to be a collectors piece. The last V8 from Toyota. You would be a complete fool to get rid of it for the umpteenth time. When you’re at the proper age of retirement and driving all electric vehicles, you’ll look back in your garage at this, and it will be worth a pretty penny. Lastly, if you haven’t driven a supercharged tundra especially, at your altitude in the mountains, you are missing out. Best modification I’ve ever done.
Just found your channel and love your content so far. I just got my very 1st Toyota product being a 2023 Platinum Tundra, I know that it's not your favorite body style haha. Love this truck and all of the extras that came with it, keep up the great work.
Thanks brother! I appreciate you tuning into some of my videos! 🙏🏼 Congrats on your 23 platinum. I definitely have a love/hate relationship with the new Tundra haha.
Interior is easy to clean and durable. Perfect for a family man. I like that slide out tray from decked. I think it would be cool to pull the decked drawers out and drop the tray to the bed so you could get luggage and dogs back there.
Here's the mod's i'd recommend (cuz this is what i'm doing to my 2020). 35" all terrains. cali raised rock sliders. retrax pro bed cover. bed rug. morimoto led lights front and rear. prinsu rack. Front and rear ironman raid steel bumpers. RCI skid plate full length. method wheels. subwoofer. husky rubber floor liners.
For those that do not know the best year for the Toyota tundra in my opinion is the 2018 year. It has the updated gauge cluster and also has the transmission cooler which was dropped in 2019 and above.
Wrong. 20 it’s the best year as it’s the first year with CarPlay and the large touchscreen plus dual climate control. Much easier to add a proper transmission cooler with radiator then the accouterments in the center consul.
It’s definitely a keeper Untamed. Hold on to it 👍🏼. I live in ID and hands down the best tires for snow and ice are the Falcon Wild peaks. Designed for severe snow conditions, every A/T3W tire is qualified by USTMA and TRAC for the Three Peak Mountain Snow Flake
I wouldn’t have done it. But if you’re happy, then I’m happy for you. The traveling to get it is part of the appreciation. The price doesn’t really matter too much here. So don’t sweat it too much.
I would have bought that for $58,000 I got a 21 mgm crew cab with some accessories 2 years ago and it had 6,000 miles on it I paid sticker price. Because this is going to be my forever truck and I wanted this platform and of course that V8 Great choice great choice Love the channel keep it up.
With all those accessories and that mileage you got a great buy I forgot to mention mine was a platinum as well with rims tires tonneau cover LED lighting inside keeping it forever Love you channel keep it up fellow vet here Navy and Air Force@@UntamedMotors
@@UntamedMotors If I can find the right one, I very well might. I traded my last one in for a 2024 AT4X AEV last month. If I can find an Army green TRD Pro, I just might snag it!
I love that generation of Tundra’s! I currently own a 2018 Tundra Limited in the cement gray with the TRD off-road package. I would like to have a 2020 1794 in Army Green with the Trd off-road package.
I think you should super charge it and then keep it forever. It’s my absolute dream truck. Especially with the canopy. If you EVER get rid of this truck again, you are absolutely batshit crazy.
I just purchased a '21 Toyota Tundra, and I absolutely love it. It's not a TRD Pro, but it's a beast. It had 11,800mi, for $42,00. In what state did you find your Tundra? I'm in Texas, in the Houston area. The truck I had before this one was a '14 f150 super crew, and when ford starts breaking down, there is nothing you can do to stop it, even if you take great care of it.
It was because of you that I bought this same truck in October 2021. I love the idea of the topper, but I’m still not 100% sold on the look. Also has a bit of a drawback that I usually use my truck a few times a year to haul wood and I like being able to throw it into the bed. What are your thoughts on the look?
I do not know if you overpaid for the truck or not, but I completely understand why you have circled back and bought the 2nd gen Tundra again (in your case the TRD Pro). I have a 21 Tundra Limited CrewMax TRD-Off Road, and I absolutely love the truck, and I cannot think for any truck right now that is on sale that I would prefer it over the 2nd gen Tundra. Yes, the 1/2 ton trucks from Big 3 have tons of features and the ride comfort and fuel economy is amazing, but the reliability is like a hitting the lottery - you are either lucky or not lucky. I want a reliable, simple and honest truck that does not cost an arm and a leg. The 3rd gen Tundra has a peppier engine and it is still a very solid truck, but I hate the exterior look. I could not get used to it even after 3 years; I simply hate it. The only time I like one is if it is in white color, Platinum or 1794, but those trucks cost a lot. I rather have a Ford F150 Raptor than the 3rd gen Tundra if the money was not the issue.
I’m over all these new trucks. Every manufacture is having serious issues... Later this year I will also be going back to a 2020 or 2021 Tundra. I miss the V8 and honestly I miss just changing my oil and rotating my tires and that’s it! I’ve own 3 tundra’s and they’ve been great. I feel like you made a great decision 👊🏻
@@UntamedMotors I get the reliability but the new gen is faster, handles way better and the tech is amazing. The 14" screen is worth switching to the new gen...
I just drove this same truck yesterday but in white. I really wanted to love it. Especially since it was at a great price with a rack, decked box, awning, bike rack, etc. But I just couldn't love it. It was so boring for me. I know it's the most reliable truck out there, but it felt like I was driving a 13 year old truck. It sounded great, but compared to other newer V8 trucks I've owned recently, it was pretty slow. And the white is just so plain like a work truck. I love the look in Lunar. I'm still trying to process it and wondering if I can force myself to buy it even though I know I won't love it.
I have a 2017 TRD Pro Tundra CrewMax in Cement color. Love everything about it but the gas mileage. I do like the next Gen TRD Pro however not enough to trade in my 2017 for one. Mine is paid for, not sure if I wanna finance 70K. lol. Nice video and truck Sir. 👍👊🏼
It's a toss up - I bought a 15 Tundra SR5 Trd Offroad 4x4 Doublecab 2.5 years ago for 30K It had 109K one owner, has ARE Z series bedcap and came with heated/ventilated aftermarket Katzkin leather seats. I've pretty much made it better than a TRD Pro - TRD Pro grill/ 2021 black LED headlight assemblies, Morimoto LED turn signals, full Bedrug with Rago mounts, Rhino Rack Pioneer roof rack, TRD Pro exhaust, Method 706 Beadgrip wheels in Bronze, Ironman4x4 Foam Cell Pro suspension lift, RAGO dash mount with USB ports, AJT blacked out controls, Dashmat (best thing ever, really reduces glare and protects dash) LED interior - so I'm probably in it 36-37K and it's virtually the same truck up to 2021. That's what I did, because I couldn't warrant a 60K truck and still have money to mess with it. Yours has a lot of upgrades too, so 58K with hardly any miles is really not a bad deal. I just wanted to enjoy picking my upgrades and doing a little at a time. Plus, no matter what I do to mine, a TRD Pro associated with the VIN# will always hold their value more than an SR5 TRD Offroad LOL
great truck…great find. 58k is not that much to spend, considering all of your afore mentioned points - - basic/reliable power train, low miles, the 4x4 & mod utility, plus is a civilized family hauler/mall crawler. one question for ya’…what mpg’s are you getting city/ hgwy/combined & does the next gen Tundra & all of its fussy power train tweeks really boost those mpg ratings over your 21’s #’s?
Great video in the whole scheme of things. No, you did not pay too much I mean seriously for that same truck in a 2024 model. You're paying nearly 80,000 and for what a bucket of plastic and all kinds of problems. And also it doesn't matter how many times you've bought the same model in the past. Good for you. Keep up the good work
Awesome truck! By the way, I have a feeling that the original purposely installed the tires with the white writing inside, not to ruin the overall look of the truck from the side. There is no way a guy with this high taste would make such a mistake. I'm quite sure that was done intentionally.
It kills me that you had this brand new once and now you're in a pre-owned 😂. Nothing wrong with that but something about being the first owner of an awesome vehicle. I say this as a 2nd owner for my 19' TRD Sport Tacoma. Love the thing to death but would have been nice to have it brand new 😅
Forever = 2 months to this guy
Unfortunately, some people get really bored easily. But he’s still got the right to do whatever he wants with it. I’d personally keep this one forever, though. It’s going to be even more of a valuable car years from now.
lol I gave him extra month, I said 3 months
Don’t hate my brother. I’d do the same thing if I had the money.

Just glad you and Mrs. Untamed are back on team Toyota/ Lexus. I just traded in my 18 Pro Tacoma for a new Lexus nx300. But just before that I bought a Daihatsu Hijet Kei truck so I thought I didn't need two trucks..If we wanna go offroad my Ms has a 16 4runner. And for Sunday afternoons I have an 18 Yaris with a bunch of Trd junk on it. Low slow and a blast to drive. I started watching your channel for the Toyota content.
Thanks for the support, Ryan. Feels good to be back! =]
I just bought a 2021 Tundra SR5 with 28,000 mi on it. I'm so glad you made this purchase, and I really do hope you don't get rid of this one. There is still a lot of content for modifications on these trucks platforms to entertain us lol
I am modifying my truck heavily, and would like to talk to you about some of the modifications I am planning on making to mine.
Nice! Congrats man. I’ll keep putting out content on it. It’s my favorite truck… love to share my adventures with it. =]
The fact of the matter is the 21 tundra is the last of the non-trickery full-size trucks out there. There was no active fuel management. Turbo chargers. 10 speed transmission. All of those things the other manufacturers had done and proven unreliable
Only in the half ton segment. Move up to 3/4 and 1 ton and you don't have any of that crap
I’m biased too! I have the same truck with 23K on it! It’s a rock solid no worries truck. Good luck with the ‘new’ truck; hope to see it often on your channel!
You Sir, have great taste! 👌 💯
Thank you, I’m very grateful to have been able to swoop this one up. =]
You are the best youtuber dont forget this not just good i dont get bored never get bored talk about this truck 5.7 lier tundra
Thanks brother. Really appreciate that. =]
After seeing the TFL Tacoma’s 4WD issue, I think you made the right decision.
i agree at this point but thats why you wait on buying the first year of a new model. this platform is tried and true however. i just saw that video and ouch that sound of whatever broke.
Havent even seen that with a tundra.
Well, we really do not know what the idiots at TFL did to that little Tacoma. So, I do not even blame the truck or Toyota for that. Yes, it is a brand new whatever gen, but I do not even know if it has a completely new transfer case compared to the previous one (it might), and it broke because is a new tech (blah-blah-blah: it is still a part-time 4x4 like the previous one). Yes, the Limited version gets a bit different transfer case, but the Off-Road version, come on.
My other point is, If you follow the books how to brake in a new truck/car, TFL did absolutely the opposite what it should be done. They do not care, a year later or sooner, they will sell the truck and it will become someone else's problem. TFL in my opinion are bunch of idiots. Enthusiasts my a**.
pretty sad not evern 4k miles and broken on the trail. my 80 series been doing that stuff for 30 years and still never broken anything
@@GoodSamLegend I agree 100% with everything you said! I have been saying that for a long time, the guy on "Driving Sports" is very similar to the TFL idiots as well. TFL has certain brands that they go to great lengths to trash and try and make them look bad. They especially like to try and make Toyota look bad. There are so many times you can tell that they are intentionally making the vehicles get stuck on easy terrain that a skilled driver might be able to drive through in 2WD. TFL is pure garbage!
13:30 the first Untamed Motors video that I ever watched! Cheers man
Thanks for being an OG Supporter! 🙏🏼
I just got my first Toyota ever, I traded my gladiator in for a 2021 Tundra trd amazing trucks. I’m super stoked for overland camping adventures and the insane amount of room!
I imagine these vehicles are going to really hold their value especially if the new 2024 platform doesn’t pass the test of time. That is a beautiful truck 🛻
Thank you! I think so too… new ones are priced to oblivion too.
It's a great looking truck. The topper looks awesome, too. Don't let this one get away!
I’m going to seriously try to keep this one! =]
This truck is going to be a collectors piece. The last V8 from Toyota. You would be a complete fool to get rid of it for the umpteenth time. When you’re at the proper age of retirement and driving all electric vehicles, you’ll look back in your garage at this, and it will be worth a pretty penny. Lastly, if you haven’t driven a supercharged tundra especially, at your altitude in the mountains, you are missing out. Best modification I’ve ever done.
Man a supercharged Tundra sounds wonderful 👌 haha and yeah I’ll try my best to not let this one go. No better truck imo. =]
Did it affect your MPG in a negative way with the charged 5.7L when you just drive it normally?
@@TheCarGuyOnlineonly 1mpg less if driven the same way. Towing is a different story tho…
@@Captndarty Nice. I looked at them and always wondered...but never felt like I needed the extra power with the rear-end ratio these things have.
@@TheCarGuyOnline I wanted the power for interstate towing and high altitude. Plus I get the same acceleration as before with less pedal pressure.
I have a 2021 SR5 4x4. Like you, I intend to make it my forever truck. Thank you for the video as it's given me ideas for some tasteful modifications.
Just found your channel and love your content so far. I just got my very 1st Toyota product being a 2023 Platinum Tundra, I know that it's not your favorite body style haha. Love this truck and all of the extras that came with it, keep up the great work.
Thanks brother! I appreciate you tuning into some of my videos! 🙏🏼 Congrats on your 23 platinum. I definitely have a love/hate relationship with the new Tundra haha.
Interior is easy to clean and durable. Perfect for a family man. I like that slide out tray from decked. I think it would be cool to pull the decked drawers out and drop the tray to the bed so you could get luggage and dogs back there.
I agree! Love the simplicity in and out. =]
Here's the mod's i'd recommend (cuz this is what i'm doing to my 2020). 35" all terrains. cali raised rock sliders. retrax pro bed cover. bed rug. morimoto led lights front and rear. prinsu rack. Front and rear ironman raid steel bumpers. RCI skid plate full length. method wheels. subwoofer. husky rubber floor liners.
Solid recommendations 👌 💯
I own a 2020 Platinum 110k miles and have never had a hiccup. Tried and true and don’t think I will ever get rid of it.
Of all the tires you mentioned, KO2's are the only tires I'll trust wheeling in Death Valley's triple digit summer heat.
KO2s are exceptional. Such a tough, capable tire 👌
For those that do not know the best year for the Toyota tundra in my opinion is the 2018 year. It has the updated gauge cluster and also has the transmission cooler which was dropped in 2019 and above.
Wrong. 20 it’s the best year as it’s the first year with CarPlay and the large touchscreen plus dual climate control. Much easier to add a proper transmission cooler with radiator then the accouterments in the center consul.
Welcome back to greatness!
Haha thanks brother 🙏🏼
Feels great to be back!
That is a sweet truck. Enjoy it... we dont mind the repeat builds because we all love the Yotas.
Hi! I know this isn’t a part of your channel brand, but would you ever consider doing a video on your braces and your orthodontic treatment?
It’s definitely a keeper Untamed. Hold on to it 👍🏼. I live in ID and hands down the best tires for snow and ice are the Falcon Wild peaks. Designed for severe snow conditions, every A/T3W tire is qualified by USTMA and TRAC for the Three Peak Mountain Snow Flake
Thanks brother! I’m seriously going to try to keep ahold of this one. I’ve only heard great things about out those Wildpeaks 👌
I just bought a 2021Tundra TRD OffRoad and I love it. I was definitely influenced by TH-camrs like you.
Awesome man! Congrats! 🙌
It's the Truck.. it's the only truck I would consider at this point. I decided to go with a 21 GX460 and I don't regret it.
You bought an amazing suv. A bulletproof platform that shares many similarities to the Tundra here. 👌 💯
Outstanding choice Sir 💪 I have the same Tundra never getting rid of mine got 15k miles I’m still in love with it 👊
Thanks man! 🙏🏼 No other truck quite like it these days. =] love it
Love my 2021 TRD off road. My second one previous was a 2010). Keeping it as long as possible.
My 18’ cav blue DC payment hurts every month but got it at a good time , only 2 years left. I know what it’s for, keeping a gem long term.
Least you know it’ll never break down on you. 👌
Really like the truck. Will keep my 5.7 forever. Rock warrior package
Nice! Love those! 👌
My favorite buy you you have made in years. Nice work. If you ever want to sell it, please let me know.
Thanks brother. 🙏🏼
I’ll definitely keep you in mind.
If I could have afford it. I would have done the same. Some excellent modifications.
I wouldn’t have done it. But if you’re happy, then I’m happy for you. The traveling to get it is part of the appreciation. The price doesn’t really matter too much here. So don’t sweat it too much.
Yeah right. I’m surprised it’s lasted even this long.
I would have bought that for $58,000 I got a 21 mgm crew cab with some accessories 2 years ago and it had 6,000 miles on it I paid sticker price. Because this is going to be my forever truck and I wanted this platform and of course that V8 Great choice great choice Love the channel keep it up.
Thanks brother 🙏🏼
No better truck to keep ahold of. Sounds like you got a solid deal on yours -especially during the pandemic price gouging era 👌
With all those accessories and that mileage you got a great buy I forgot to mention mine was a platinum as well with rims tires tonneau cover LED lighting inside keeping it forever Love you channel keep it up fellow vet here Navy and Air Force@@UntamedMotors
You could also do a hitch mount for any motorcycle that you would want. Love the truck. I've been looking to sell my 2018 Colorado ZR2 for a Tundra.
Absolutely love this truck and miss my 2021 magnetic gray TRD Pro!
There’s no truck quite like this one anymore… love it! You plan on snagging another?
@@UntamedMotors If I can find the right one, I very well might. I traded my last one in for a 2024 AT4X AEV last month. If I can find an Army green TRD Pro, I just might snag it!
Bro you can make a video about the same truck tomorrow and I’ll watch it. Tundras are the best no doubt
Haha thanks brother 🙏🏼 I know a group of us exist out there =]
I love that generation of Tundra’s! I currently own a 2018 Tundra Limited in the cement gray with the TRD off-road package. I would like to have a 2020 1794 in Army Green with the Trd off-road package.
Love this generation of Tundra, same as my 2019, love that color.
I think you should super charge it and then keep it forever. It’s my absolute dream truck. Especially with the canopy. If you EVER get rid of this truck again, you are absolutely batshit crazy.
Haha I’m going to do my best to keep ahold of this one. =]
Supercharging it would be awesome! 👌
There's about 10k in modifications. Great purchase.
Thanks brother! Super pleased with it. =]
I just purchased a '21 Toyota Tundra, and I absolutely love it. It's not a TRD Pro, but it's a beast. It had 11,800mi, for $42,00. In what state did you find your Tundra? I'm in Texas, in the Houston area. The truck I had before this one was a '14 f150 super crew, and when ford starts breaking down, there is nothing you can do to stop it, even if you take great care of it.
Nice man! Congrats! I bought mine out of SC. It’s the perfect truck all around in my opinion. Sounds like you scored a great deal too! 👍
Nice truck. Congratulations!
Thanks a ton, Bret! Super grateful to have swooped this one up. =]
Great vid. I have a 2020 Tundra Limited. I love it. I'm not trading that in for the new Tundra, but it still like the new Tundra.
It was because of you that I bought this same truck in October 2021. I love the idea of the topper, but I’m still not 100% sold on the look. Also has a bit of a drawback that I usually use my truck a few times a year to haul wood and I like being able to throw it into the bed. What are your thoughts on the look?
I don’t love the topper look but it’s a nice change and I can see the value in functionality. 👌
I do not know if you overpaid for the truck or not, but I completely understand why you have circled back and bought the 2nd gen Tundra again (in your case the TRD Pro). I have a 21 Tundra Limited CrewMax TRD-Off Road, and I absolutely love the truck, and I cannot think for any truck right now that is on sale that I would prefer it over the 2nd gen Tundra.
Yes, the 1/2 ton trucks from Big 3 have tons of features and the ride comfort and fuel economy is amazing, but the reliability is like a hitting the lottery - you are either lucky or not lucky. I want a reliable, simple and honest truck that does not cost an arm and a leg.
The 3rd gen Tundra has a peppier engine and it is still a very solid truck, but I hate the exterior look. I could not get used to it even after 3 years; I simply hate it. The only time I like one is if it is in white color, Platinum or 1794, but those trucks cost a lot. I rather have a Ford F150 Raptor than the 3rd gen Tundra if the money was not the issue.
It is very beautiful and reliable, the only criticism would be the MPG‘s.
I traded my 2017 tundra sr5 for a 2024 limited. Definitely worth the upgrade. Don't miss the old model at all
Still want the lunar rock 4Runner to match on your channel. Definitely my fav combo. Voodoo blue was good too.
Haha I loved that combo too 👌
Carvana stock is up almost 50% since he said the used market is going to crash (apparently in April). Even his beloved Carmax is up.
I’m over all these new trucks. Every manufacture is having serious issues... Later this year I will also be going back to a 2020 or 2021 Tundra. I miss the V8 and honestly I miss just changing my oil and rotating my tires and that’s it! I’ve own 3 tundra’s and they’ve been great.
I feel like you made a great decision 👊🏻
have had three in that gen and will never go back after now owning the new-gen
I’m the opposite, I’ll never go back to that new one. 🤷♂️ different strokes for different folks I suppose.
@@UntamedMotors I get the reliability but the new gen is faster, handles way better and the tech is amazing. The 14" screen is worth switching to the new gen...
How do you like the topper vs not having one. I’ve always had the tonneau cover. Definitely been considering a topper with a pullout tray.
I can’t give an honest assessment of that yet. I’m used to having an open bed for sure… so this is new to me. But I think I’ll really like it.
I just drove this same truck yesterday but in white. I really wanted to love it. Especially since it was at a great price with a rack, decked box, awning, bike rack, etc. But I just couldn't love it. It was so boring for me. I know it's the most reliable truck out there, but it felt like I was driving a 13 year old truck. It sounded great, but compared to other newer V8 trucks I've owned recently, it was pretty slow. And the white is just so plain like a work truck. I love the look in Lunar. I'm still trying to process it and wondering if I can force myself to buy it even though I know I won't love it.
I think the 2020 and 2021’s are a little more responsive for what it’s worth.
5290 Miles!! nice find.
Thanks brother! Super happy with it. =]
I love your truck…I have been looking for one and so far haven’t find one yet…
Keep searching! You’ll find one. I just shared a solid example on my IG story.
I have a 2017 TRD Pro Tundra CrewMax in Cement color. Love everything about it but the gas mileage. I do like the next Gen TRD Pro however not enough to trade in my 2017 for one. Mine is paid for, not sure if I wanna finance 70K. lol. Nice video and truck Sir. 👍👊🏼
Yeah the best type of truck is a paid off truck
It's a toss up - I bought a 15 Tundra SR5 Trd Offroad 4x4 Doublecab 2.5 years ago for 30K It had 109K one owner, has ARE Z series bedcap and came with heated/ventilated aftermarket Katzkin leather seats. I've pretty much made it better than a TRD Pro - TRD Pro grill/ 2021 black LED headlight assemblies, Morimoto LED turn signals, full Bedrug with Rago mounts, Rhino Rack Pioneer roof rack, TRD Pro exhaust, Method 706 Beadgrip wheels in Bronze, Ironman4x4 Foam Cell Pro suspension lift, RAGO dash mount with USB ports, AJT blacked out controls, Dashmat (best thing ever, really reduces glare and protects dash) LED interior - so I'm probably in it 36-37K and it's virtually the same truck up to 2021.
That's what I did, because I couldn't warrant a 60K truck and still have money to mess with it.
Yours has a lot of upgrades too, so 58K with hardly any miles is really not a bad deal. I just wanted to enjoy picking my upgrades and doing a little at a time.
Plus, no matter what I do to mine, a TRD Pro associated with the VIN# will always hold their value more than an SR5 TRD Offroad LOL
Great review. Now I need to search KSL for one. Would love to trade my 19 Sierra Denali 6.2 to be done with the big 3.
Do it! Just shared a great example on my IG. 👍
great truck…great find. 58k is not that much to spend, considering all of your afore mentioned points - - basic/reliable power train, low miles, the 4x4 & mod utility, plus is a civilized family hauler/mall crawler. one question for ya’…what mpg’s are you getting city/ hgwy/combined & does the next gen Tundra & all of its fussy power train tweeks really boost those mpg ratings over your 21’s #’s?
Great video in the whole scheme of things. No, you did not pay too much I mean seriously for that same truck in a 2024 model. You're paying nearly 80,000 and for what a bucket of plastic and all kinds of problems. And also it doesn't matter how many times you've bought the same model in the past. Good for you. Keep up the good work
21 Tundra TRD pro (lunar rock) owner here! I just hit the 11k mile mark (secondary vehicle) 😅. Cheers! 🍻
Nice! Still a ways to go on the break in. =]
Love this truck!
The class act of Tundra.
🙌 Agreed. Love how simplistic and raw this platform is. It’s perfect. Now if I could just keep ahold of this one… 🤔
I challenge you to keep this truck. Let this be the staple in your garage/driveway that your kids grow up to cherish.
I’m seriously going to try hard this time. 👌 I know I won’t find another like it ever again.
I have a 2022 Tundra, countless issues and recalls. I've been looking for something like this.
Dad life is the best!
Amen to that! 🙏🏼
Awesome truck! By the way, I have a feeling that the original purposely installed the tires with the white writing inside, not to ruin the overall look of the truck from the side.
There is no way a guy with this high taste would make such a mistake. I'm quite sure that was done intentionally.
It kills me that you had this brand new once and now you're in a pre-owned 😂. Nothing wrong with that but something about being the first owner of an awesome vehicle. I say this as a 2nd owner for my 19' TRD Sport Tacoma. Love the thing to death but would have been nice to have it brand new 😅
Haha yeah I hear you man. That bothers me a little too… buuuut the $8-10K in mods and low miles helps me justify the decision here.
I’d love to have these parking problems with a truck like this. So cool.
That slide out is sick
How does it work keeping dust out?
I don’t think you overpaid because you got the last of the great generation of tundra, and those mods were done, right.
Thank you! I feel really good about it… might be because I’m still in the “honeymoon phase” though haha
Best truck in the best color aside from the 21 4R Pro lunar Back to the basics. LR brothers!
Amen to that! Super happy to have gotten this. =]
I would LOVE to own this truck. Keep it forever.
I’m going to seriously try this go around! 🤞🏻
