Hi Dani! It’s been a minute. Thank you for watching, I appreciate your comment!

Appreciate that, thank you!

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you! I actually reviewed a Capstone recently. As an owner, I'm curious if you agree with my assessment: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qN-Rmaqqv6fDgXU.html

I'm glad you liked my video, Bianca! I'm pretty sure the red one was a limited. The feature I was showing is called Trailer Back Up Guide System with Straight Line Assist. It's standard on 1794 and Platinum models, available in the Towing Technology package for the SR5 and Limited models, and not available on the SR and TRD Pro models. I hope that helps.

@@viewsonvehicles this helps so much. Thank you!

Thank you! No I have not specifically seen that. Good luck!

Thank you!

I'm not certain, but I believe it's the shortest one, 28 feet.

It's a good question, I'll see if I can find out.

I was hoping for the same. The good news is, the SR doesn't have the electric front air dam which would be in the way of the plow mounts - same reason they're not putting tow hooks on the truck. The bad news is, the SR trim is saddled with a 22.5 gallon fuel tank.

Thank you so much for the compliment! I did a bit of research and could not find anything saying that the Sport Package changes the towing rating of the SR5 Tundra, which is well above the specs of your Basecamp 20X. Toyota says it can handle a tongue weight of over 1100 lbs. And tow more than 11,000 lbs. So I think the truck will handle it fine. What may be affected is ride comfort while towing. But, again, I would guess minimally. I hope that helps!

@@viewsonvehicles hi, i have a 23 tundra s5r trd package and have been looking and looking and looking for the actually tongue weight that mine can take. Can anyone give me a link on information on 23 tongue weight. thanks in advance.

@@egggofff5057 I couldn't find an exact figure for you, but it should be 10 percent of the SR5 Tow rating, minus 10 percent of what the little yellow sticker on the door says. That sticker accounts for all the details and options of your truck that reduces payload and towing capacity. You can find that sticker by checking out my video here. I have it time stamped to start just a couple seconds before I show the sticker. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nshynLRzl7ObeJc.html I hope this helps. -Robin

Thank you! As long as weather is reasonable, I'd recommend 2H so the front tires can focus on steering. Switching between 2H and 4H was super easy. As this was at a Toyota event, I didn't mount the trailer, but my guess is 2-inch ball. Hope that helps!

Yes, although you need to watch the tongue weight carefully. I think your payload capacity is around 1500 lbs so don't place all the weight in front of the trailer axles

The numbers on the chart are from Toyota, but I made the chart myself.

@@viewsonvehicles Did they also provide figures with additional deductions like theTRD Off-Road pkg? I am trying to determine the SR5 CrewMax and Double-Cab payload capacities with standard 6.5’ beds and TRD Off-Road Pkg. So far I have come up with 1,500lbs and 1,735lbs, respectively; assuming no running boards. How do you know payload if you go with the large screen upgrade and (if available on the SR5) the air suspension.

@@dreadkina-babylon2692 These are good questions, to be sure. I do not have an answer for you. A more detailed breakdown of exact payload almost certainly exists, though I’m not sure where. As I understood it, the ranges given within the drivetrain and cab categories covered the weight of the available options. But I cannot confirm that. Essentially, you need two numbers, the truck’s curb weight and it’s GVW. I hope that helps. And good luck.

One of the other truck channels test drove a non-hybrid SR5 crew cab 5.5ft bed 4WD TRD Offroad package and the actual yellow sticker in the door frame said it had a payload of 1450lbs. That’s less than a Honda Ridgeline. Pretty weak if you ask me and no way it’ll tow 11k pounds without exceeding the payload rating, assuming a 15% tongue weight.

@@JohnSmith-dj5gf Yeah, I saw that video and I used it along with Robin Warner’s stuff here to determine the CrewMax SR5 w/TRD Off-Road 6.5ft bed reduces payload 1940-1450=490lb…but -50(for those running boards)=440lbs…..Toyota needs to provide the weight for each option package and accessory before you order. But they need to do it now, not wait until December when the ordering begins. I don’t understand the arrogance from a business side….$35K, $45k, $60k on an automobile represents the second largest purchase most Americans will ever make. Takes balls to shit on you customers….that’s what the Big 3 do.

No, it was a standard hitch.

Could you tell me what the tongue weight was on that trailer?

Ooo, no, sorry. It was something Toyota setup during my test drive. I know it's a 16ft Airstream Bambi trailer. According to Airstream, it has a hitch weight of 430 lbs. Hopefully that helps. Here's the link: www.airstream.com/travel-trailers/bambi/specifications/

Unfortunately, no. To be honest, no official MPG numbers are out yet, Toyota estimates the non hybrid, I-Force, will achieve 18/23/20 mpg (city/hwy/combined) for the two-wheel-drive model and 17/22/19 for the four-wheel-drive model. And, obviously, that’s not towing. Having the 10-speed certainly helps, though.

@@viewsonvehicles thanks for your reply

Nope. Triple checked. It’s a simplified version of the same twin-turbo 3.5-liter in the other trims. It’s a low stressed motor, to be sure.

Uh oh sounds like trouble in the making, she’ll be a gearhunter for sure

It sounds even stressed down low

If you’re referring to my age, thank you for the compliment! But I’m in my 40s. As far as your comment about ride comfort, quietness, etc. I am working on two more videos about the Tundra, one of which is closer to a traditional drive review. This video focused on towing and hauling specs, as well as a few various features Toyota offers to make the job easier.

There's countless reviews on the new Tundra's ride. This is the first review I've seen that shows a Plain Jane SR - which I'm (was?) interested in, as well as reporting on its disappointing tow ratings. Well done!

@@viewsonvehicles 😆😉✌

@Jim Thumerzs.. Let me correct @Robin Warner.. The maximum towing capacity of the 2022 SR Tundra is 11,155 lbs.
