Potent 2014 Toyota Tundra Picks Up Where Its Predecessor Leaves Off

Toyota has given its star pickup the most telling refresh since the big truck launched in 2007. Cosmetic changes take the forefront over mechanical revisions, but the positive effects are pleasing across the board.

The most obvious revision for 2014 is to the bluff front fascia of the truck. There's a new, taller squared-off grille decorating the Tundra's nose, along with a revised, three-part front bumper design. Perhaps most significant is the revised bed design, which Toyota calls "all-new," with new sheet metal on the sides, a revised tailgate and a very subtle integrated spoiler.

It's a purposeful, inspiring look that will attract attention on the interstate and workplace.

Inside, Toyota has given buyers some new seats and a new-look instrument panel. A backup camera (always handy on big trucks) is now standard equipment on all grades, as is
Bluetooth connectivity. Blind spot monitoring is a new, optional feature as well. In all, as with the exterior mods, the changes in-cabin are far more evolutionary than revolutionary.

All of the functional components of the Toyota Tundra carryover from the existing lineup. A 4.0-liter, 270-horsepower 278-pound-feet of torque V6 is still the base engine, while two V8s � a 310-hp, 327-lb-ft 4.6-liter and a 381-hp, 401-lb-ft 5.7-liter � round out the offerings. The V6 hooks up to a five-speed automatic transmission, while both V8s make use of six gears.

Equipped with the 5.7L V8, the Toyota Tundra hauls more than 2000 lbs. and tows over 10,000 pounds. Even better, with the roomy CrewMax version, you won't have to leave anyone in the family at home. And we love the fact that this capable pickup is made, proudly, in America.
