All About The 2016 Toyota Tundra

The 2016 Toyota Tundra is truly a force to be reckoned with, and drivers from all over have been tumbling in to Irwin Toyota to check it out. They all get big eyes when they see the Tundraa big truck for big jobs.

The entire vehicle gives off an air of power when viewed from any angle, letting drivers know it means business. Because for many big trucks are part of everyday life, something that can't be taken for granted or something potentially dangerous could happen if they were to fail.

Drivers will be in safe hands with the 2016 Toyota Tundra, though.

A Look That Practically Starts the Job For You

The Tundra looks like a truck that is raring to get to work, and it is. Although it retains the classic look that big Toyota trucks have been sporting for decades, it also refines the look.

This truck will turn heads as it journeys to the job site to haul whatever can be thrown at it, and that's as important to some drivers as its actual ability.

And while the silhouette of the Toyota Tundra is so wide it'll leave some wondering if there is room for anything else on the road (something drivers like) the designers used some subtly in the grill design so its lines would make the truck seem slimmer from the front.

All and all the 2016 Toyota Tundra is an amazing take on how a revamped classic look can manifest.

Raw, Unadulterated Power

2016 Toyota Tundra Engine

The Tundra has a 5.7L V8 that, along with finely tuned duel exhaust, gives the Tundra a bark that even the scariest beast would be proud of. The engine conjures 381 horsepower that creates 401-foot pounds of torque—this all equals 10,500 of towing power.

All that power and towing ability isn't much if the truck isn't built to handle it, but unlike much of the competition, the Toyota Tundra doesn't have that problem.

With its TOW/HAUL Mode, the Tundra makes it much easier on the driver when it comes to towing. Many unseasoned drivers simply have no idea how hard it can be to tow something that is very heavy, mostly because they've never done it before.

But with the Toyota Tundra even novice drivers will have an easy go of it. That's because in TOW/HAUL mode the truck will be smart enough to shift gears—the Tundra will favor lower gears for longer.

This is so the big pickup doesn't have to continually shift in an effort to hunt for the right gear while towing. The “hunting” effect might not seem like it would be an issue until a driver is trying to move a heavy load through uneven terrain, or until the boss is watching them struggle to move something across the lot in a timely manner.

Toyota makes it so drivers don't have to be “that guy” anymore. You know the guy we're talking about: the one who isn't sure how to operate the truck he drives.

And even though it might be unfair to label someone “that guy” who isn't even in control of what gear his vehicle chooses, workers across the nation know how easy the title is to garner, and how hard it is to shake.

So know that with the Toyota Tundra you won't be worrying about your driving when you're working. This pickup will take care of the driving for you when it comes time to do your boss a quick favor and tow a trailer for him.

And that's something workers everywhere appreciate because they know when it comes time for bonuses and promotions it is often the little things that separate them from everyone else.

There are other systems in the 2016 Toyota Tundra that will help working drivers separate themselves from the rest of their cohorts. The Tundra will increase throttle response when towing so drivers don't have to feel like they are slamming on the gas every time they want to get the truck going under load.

Not only this but the Tundra will also help the driver brake effectively, and allow them to fine tune how much the trailer brakes when they apply the brake.

This may sound like little things, and maybe they are, that is until you're hauling a real heavy load and realize how long it can take to stop. And not to mention how much these little tweaks will help a driver maneuver their trucks out of the mountains.

The reason that prolonged descents can be so hard on a truck is constant braking—if a driver overheats their brakes they've got a runaway truck.

And as much fun as those runaway truck ramps look on the sides of mountain roads, there is no way this Toyota wouldn't at least suffer a few scratches from having to plow up one. But with proper engine braking any drama can be avoided.

Suspension

The suspension is complex and hard to sum up, so you'll have to check it out for yourself at Irwin Toyota to really get the low down. But the short of the long of it is that off-roading will be smooth—real smooth.

It is finely tuned and even has shock reservoirs that will effectively keep the vehicle from bottoming out where other trucks would be banging metal on metal.

This also helps the big truck to tow loads because, as everyone that tow things always knows that a heavy load in the truck's bed will really weigh the vehicle down.

This Toyota is ready to go, any way you look at it. Whether you want to tow over 10,000 pounds effectively, or if you want to off-road, or do both.

This is the truck for people that want to do things, not the truck for people who want to talk about doing things, but never actually do
