McCarthy Toyota of Sedalia
The entire Tundra lineup gets a revised front fascia, and an all-new Trailhunter trim joins the range. Trailhunter brings Michelin LTX Trail tires on bronze 18-inch wheels, an Old Man Emu upgraded suspension, a standard locking rear differential, front recovery hooks, additional underbody skid plates, Multi-Terrain Select, Crawl Control, and exclusive badging.
An honest truck that doesn't overreach
Toyota's entry in the full-size pickup segment, the Tundra hits most of the marks that define the class: a choice of rear- or four-wheel drive, two cab sizes, two bed sizes, and a lineup running from the work-a-day, entry-level SR to the cowboy-chic 1794 Edition. Power comes from a twin-turbo 3.4-liter V-6 rated for 389 horsepower (348 in the base SR), feeding a 10-speed automatic transmission.
The Tundra is capable enough for most buyers, but it trails the segment in two crucial metrics that can make or break a deal in the pickup world: max towing capacity and payload. Even its top trims fall short of the premium luxury offerings from Ram and Ford. Still, it remains an honest vehicle that doesn't pretend to be something it's not.
Shoppers who want more muscle should look at the separately reviewed Tundra Hybrid, which pairs a gas-electric powertrain rated at 437 horsepower and 583 lb-ft of torque. Going hybrid also opens the door to the TRD Pro model and the top-shelf Capstone trim.
What Stands Out
- New Trailhunter trim offers affordable ruggedness
- Coil-spring rear suspension delivers a compliant ride
- Standard 14-inch infotainment screen, every trim
- Toyota's unmatched complimentary maintenance plan
Worth Knowing
- Trails competitors in max towing and payload
- Second-row space is smaller than rivals offer
- Top trims still fall short of Ram/Ford luxury models

Pricing shown reflects industry estimates for the 2027 model year and excludes tax, title, license, and dealer fees. Limited ($57,500 est.), Platinum ($66,000 est.), and 1794 Edition ($67,000 est.) sit above this range with progressively more luxury equipment. Car and Driver recommends the SR5 for the best blend of features, capability, and price — it adds 41 more horsepower than the SR, alloy wheels in place of steel, and a tow/haul mode with trailer-brake controller.
