Why replace my 2022 Toyota Tundra with a 2024? Well, I talk about that a bit in this and the previous video, but the main reason is... car seats. When it came time to get a new Tundra, as usual, I was in a bit of a hurry, and also didn't have any patience. So browsing local dealerships with what was available, I landed on this 2024 Toyota Tundra Platinum Crew Max 5.5 bed in Magnetic Gray Metallic (MGM). In this video I talk about why I went for this spec specifically, and why it might be one you should consider.

Do yourself a favor and put seat covers on the rears. The car seats tear up the seats in addition to the puffy snacks that will end up being spilled despite every attempt at prohibiting snacks in the truck. Plus the underneath rear storage pretty much gets delegated to emergency supplies- tire repair, emergency blankets, ect... that you will only need to use in the rarest occasions. Best wishes on the new one!
This is the way, kids are dirty not to mention all the places and floors the bottoms of those car seats will inevitably touch
Yeah I’m leaning towards putting seat cover on the rear - looking into ones that still allow you to fold up the seats, etc, but they’re pricey! Also will eventually get rear seat protectors for the back of the front seats for the kids kicking them I guess!
Car seats are not meant to go on top of seat covers for safety reasons
I’ve heard that mentioned before - but I think there’s no truth to it - carseats don’t “slip” if they’re secured into the latches or secured with the lap belt. Definitely some validity to not putting your baby in loose clothes / puffy jackets though.
Dad to triplets and I have had all three car seats sitting on an orvis seat cover for three years. I cut holes for the latches. Added a rug pad under seats. Works great!
Thanks for including us in the build Mike!
Looking forward to it!
Been watching for years… so glad you got this particular truck because I have the same in a 2023, near identical. There’s much to consider before making such expensive decisions when it comes to modding it out, so I’ll be watching closely and probably mimicking whatever the result is as best I can. If it comes out looking nearly as good as the previous Tundra I won’t be disappointed!
Super excited for this build. Love your prepared daily driver/ truck content. Definitely inspiring. Keep it coming!
I would love to see the comm and 2nd battery setup. Super stoked about this build!
And congrats on the new little one!!🎉
Can't wait to see the Tundra build ! Such a nice truck Mike! Definitely going to watch how these projects turn out! Also congrats on the new baby!
Thanks so much for the full breakdown on the Platinum trim. Ive been going back on forth on what trim I want to do and this was super helpful
Great color, just PPF it and done. Been watching your channel since 2020, your builds, home, growing family. Congrats and thanks for the inspiration 🤜🏼🤛🏼🇦🇷
Just bought a 2024 magnetic grey sr5 trd offroad. Love it
Congrats on the new truck and coming baby 🍼
Good breakdown of the platinum. Very informative.
Exact same reason I went with the Crewmax! Same space between our kids as well. Can't wait to see the build out.
Great video. Looking forward to the build.
wrap, yes!!
Can't wait for the build! Would love to learn about the COMMS setup, why you choose what you do, etc. It seems to be an overlooked part of many builds.
Congratulations on your expanding family
I always enjoy the attention to detail when it comes to your builds! Very well done!
Congrats on your baby girl! My wife and I are also due for #2 in August for a baby girl. Currently driving a ‘15 Tacoma and looking to upgrade to a platinum ‘24 Tundra as well.
Hey Mike - longtime subscriber and enjoy all that you share. Just letting you know that it appears your videos are once again appearing in my feed. Hope the growth that you deserve follows man. Hope to bump into you someday since we are both in the same area of Colorado with aligned interests. Congrats on the new addition to the family (baby and vehicle)!
Good choice!
Man, you are basically building the truck I’ve been specing out. I have a high option limited MGM and I’ve been looking at the same suspension and bumper
Congrats on new baby girl! Keep up the good work with your Tundra
Congrats man!
Just made the same decision on the 2024 as well. Platinum all the way.
Congrats on the new baby girl! And great looking truck! Can't wait to see the build progress in future videos!
keep making awesome content!
Great video, and congrats on the new kiddo! Looking forward to following along on your power upgrades and ham additions, since that’s probably where I’m headed next. Otherwise, love your channel. Always lots of interesting and fun stuff.
love your content...keep it coming!
I have a 23 sr5 with the trd off road package. It’s a perfect setup imo. But I also don’t really care about a lot of the bells and whistles that come on the higher trim levels. Congrats on the 2nd baby and the new truck!
I’ll miss the green tundra but I’m excited to see what is to come with the new one! I would love to see some of the power/lighting work that you are going to do. I always learn something from your build videos and want to learn more about that stuff! Keep up the hard work man!
Nice rig, can't wait how this turns out 😎
You can probably add the MTS module. I swapped out whatever they called the existing module that was there, and added the MTS module and MTS menu is now in list of options between speedo and tach and gives you all of the MTS options that change throttle, ATRAC, and ABS programming depending on mode. Was easy, took about 10 minutes and the module from Lexus was like $150.
Congrats on the Platinum! Badass truck but I’m definitely more excited to see how you’re building up the LX570. I daily drive a 2010 LX570 and still have it mainly stock but want to get some ideas from you. Great video as always Mike 👍
Like the idea of the new rig. Just moved to Colorado and getting into the same ideas with a new 2025 Revel. Keep the content coming! I would love to pick your brain on camping spots for the van.
That color with satin ppf is fire
metallic gray is sick and you don't see a ton of build outs in it. Just do a paint protection wrap. Great video as always Mike!!! Keep rocking!!!!
Would love to see how you put together your comms in this truck! Also, would like to continue to see the homestead content as well!
Been a while since I've checked your videos so happy baby is good and Congratulations on the new baby coming.
You've been missing from my feed. It's good to see you again buddy!
Hey Mike! I know you had talked about doing a budget breakdown of the house. I know you probably want to keep finances private, but if you could do percentages of the budget. Your decision making process on different parts of the house. What changed and what you’d do differently. Thanks!
Mike, I would definitely go roof rack. For a daily driver it is really nice to have the extra storage. If you go with adjustable thule racks on top of the diamondback you can use that to load really long 2x4 etc...
😎 looking forward
Pumped for the build! MGM with the bronze will be 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Some kind of green/army green wrap would be sick! I loved the color of your 2022. It’s sad they more or less discontinued it.
Awesome new truck
I have a metallic gray Tacoma with bronze wheels and love the look
Nice
Congrats on the baby girl!
Beautiful truck. Would really love to see the guts and path of your radio setup whenever the time comes.
Nicely done
Can’t wait to watch the build process! I just went the opposite direction of you and down sized trucks lol took me a bit to get used to but I love it! And I think the quicksand wrap on that truck would be killer! Please do it lol
So excited to view this video. I've been waiting impatiently 😂
Excited gonna be sweet can't wait run on sentence 😅
I been really interested in the Chevy LT Trail Boss, they're extremely expensive, anywhere from 65K to 70K+, maybe i'll just have to bite the bullet and maybe cry a little bit if i decide to buy one.
Awesome video and an awesome Tundra! I would definitely keep it as it is, No wrap, i love the paint color.
And congrats on the new baby!!!
The color is great. Live with it for a year and then wrap it. OEM + is the new hotness. Or do a clear PPF & ceramic coating so it glows from space. :)
Great stuff man, love the plans for the new truck. TH-cam seems to be showing me your videos more again. Hope that’s the case for everyone else too.
Sick content, can’t wait to see it all come together.
I’m in the Denver area. I have a 2014 limited Tundra. Do you or any of your buddies have any Trd pro or off-road take offs with the 5 lug pattern for sale?
Loving the videos man! My vote is quicksand for the tundra but also the grey with bronze wheels sounds rad too
Cool truck. I have always been a Toyota owner.
congratulations on the growing family. im looking into a tundra 1974, trading in my 19 f250 lariat 6.7 thanks for the info really helpful.
Great new rig mate
First off, congrats on the baby! Kids are amazing! Speaking of, that truck is also! Can’t wait to see you build out that truck and video it all! My son and daughter in law have a taco and they overland but I just ordered a custom build 2024 sprinter so I’m a van guy that loves your channel! Btw I got a notification. No bell but none of my subs do? I’ll look into it. 👍
Very nice truck. Hope I can take the plunge one day soon. I will have to be happy with stock stupid however. Maybe upgrade the tires. Without the TRD I or we can get the power running boards. Will look forward to your build.
Congrats on the baby girl on the way Mike! Stoked for you! Made the right choice going crewmax for the kiddos! My kids hate the Tacoma because it's too tight haha.
I like the grey.
Im interested to see this build as well as the comms! I bought me a cheap baofang uv-5r but havent got certified yet or really done much. Wiuld be interested to know how you got into it and how you learned.
respect
Right on for the kids! I have two under two that are exactly 18 Months apart.... 2 Girls! Looking for a new Truck / SUV and such a solid Vid. Never was much of a truck guy though. Wife wants a 7 seater SUV... even though when I had a 2017 Discovery I rarely ever used the 3rd row and had Zero kids. I'm currently using a rear facing toddler car seat and a newborn car seat.
I really like the HAM content! Just as important as having a built/capably built vehicle IMO. You should consider getting your Extra license in the future, so that you can get the most out of the hobby. Don't forget about setting up your home station as well. Cheers 🍻
AJT has a cupholder retrofit kit to fix your center console!
The 2024 Limited Nightshade is pretty close to a Platinum for me.
It has heated and ventilated seats, bed lights and power, the digital instrument cluster, panoramic moonroof.
It is missing the power running boards, HUD, 360-cam, and digital rearview mirror though. But for the extra $12k CAD, I couldn’t justify it.
Pumped for this build! Curious to see how the Ironman lift treats you….and still team quicksand wrap.
Boy first, one of each, well done Mike... and you even did it 'on purpose'! You crack me up man.
Do you have an itemized list of the upgrades you went with?
I’ve noticed a lot of the channels I follow have randomly dropped in their views - super weird. Congrats on the new whip and on the next kiddo!
Yes wrap it…but not yet that mgm is sweet
Add a rsc smart cap or a topper
Be sure to do a Garmin power switch vid
Love it! Ultimate question, can you safely fit 3 car seats in the back?!
Dude get this guy a cookie!!!!!!!!
I don’t know what that infers, but I will never turn down a cookie.
The engine destruct spun bearings is still occurring lubrication problem in engine
Hey, Mike, I've always enjoyed your gear and edc videos. You've always had a good, chill vibe and presentation.
Unfortunately I'm not hard into trucks (maybe when I make the big time). Just a thought and a hope here that you might include some more gear and edc content in your rotation. I think it would be great.

I'd love details in the Ironman lift. There seems to be not much on it yet since its new but it is an intriguing option. They don't always have the best reputation for soft goods but their suspension seem solid.
Awesome
Hidden midland mxt575 radio. With a cat6 flush extension. Super clean install and factory look! I messaged you bro
Congrats on the Baby bro!! And congrats on the truck, can’t wait to see what you do. Are you going to make it out to Overland Expo in PNW
Love you Mike, been watching you for years now. Also, congrats on the second baby! Im glad you got the crewmax tundra. As much as i love the green monster, the crewmax works best for carseats. I have a ‘21 taco pro, carseats suck in the taco.😂
You are back on the algorithm!
I live in Vermont I have a 2020 double cab limited nothing crazy but like your videos my man. An I got 3 kids I feel your pain.
Haha 3 is a lot! Hope you're holding up alright.
The ironman 4x4 lift was surprising! I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts. Their technology from my understanding is tailored best to slow, long travel articulation. Can't wait for the videos.
I’m not positive, but seems like the technology leans more towards fast travel, washboards, etc - since their benefits are increased oil and enhanced cooling to help eliminate shock fade. They are also popular in Australia where it’s predominately faster, longer distance, more washboard type stuff. Guess we’ll see!
No wrap in the beginning in the build. Looking forward to this build
One thing I don't like about Toyota, the different trim levels each have something cool that the others don't. I want a trim level with all the cool things. Suppose you could build one, but not all cool things are available options for all trims. Tacoma/4Runner new gens are something I'm excitedly waiting for. Probably going to be waiting a while, lol.
Ps... Don't wear polarized glasses when you're driving. It kills the HUD. Found that out on my old grand prix. Unless they've changed since then, the polarization kills the glare that the HUD depends on, lol.
What was the price before taxes/DMV fees??
All the digital stuff is getting wild. I’ve been looking at a new SUV and the 2023 Lexus GX460 seems to be reliable and amazing. Only gripe is the small 3rd row.
Definitely make a nerdy video about the full 12v system you're going to do mate, us Aussies love a good 12v setup.
Reckon you'll ever run a fridge in the back?
I say yes to wrapping it and no to the roof rack cause I think it’d be nice keeping the moon roof clear. I live in Denver area and would like to wrap my 4runner. I would love to know what shop you use, if you wrap it!
Your showing up on my algorithm just fine if that means anything. Since I watch all your vids you basically show up on my home page. Will be cool to see the c4 bumper this time around. Bronze with gray will look good but if you wrap it quicksand, not sure about that working with bronze as well as the gray
Quicksand 😎 And you might well double take on AG cuz you definitely looks stress ha. How do you manage all those cars but your big O garage looks phenomenal 👍
Talking about the ham stuff at 33:55 it reminded me of the little mermaid where shes says something like i have gadgets and gizmos and whatnots or something like that.
Toyota needs to make an HD truck. I would buy it in a heartbeat. Just a big ass V8 like the I force. Big. Reliable. Perfect
I mean they should make an HD truck diesel - they make awesome diesels in every other part of the world.
Whats the payload capacity?
