Toyota of Kingsport

Aug 18, 2017

The Toyota Tundra has been a top pick of truck buyers for many years. Toyota is known for making built-to-last vehicles that are both fun and functional, and the 2017 model is even better than before. Read on to learn about the amazing features that make owning a Tundra a dream come true.

 

  1. Unbeatable Quality You Can Feel

When you hit the road in a Toyota vehicle, it is clear that the leading automaker prides itself on creating a top notch product. There are few vehicles on the road today that have the high-quality feel of a Toyota. This is a deciding factor for many Toyota owners and what keeps customers coming back time and again. You can clearly see that Toyota makes cars that last – just pay attention to how many older Toyota pickups you see. There is a reason the early model Tundras are still on the road long after competitor models.

  1. American Assembled

All Tundra assembly takes place in San Antonio, Texas. Toyota’s premium trim, the luxurious 1794, celebrates the year Juan Ignacio de Casanova founded the Cattle Ranch that is now the site of Toyota’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. They decided to name the premium trim to honor Toyota’s proud heritage and pride as a leader in the American car industry. The luxurious 1794 adds superior Lexus quality leather seats, driver safety assistance features, an upgraded 5.7-liter V8 engine, advanced performance, and more.

 

  1. Superior Towing Capability

The Tundra is known for its excellent towing ability. A base model SR with the standard 4.6-liter V8 engine gives drivers 6,800 lbs of towing capacity. The upgraded 5.7-liter V8 engine increases the capacity up to 10,200 lbs, depending on the trim and selected equipment. Towing with a Tundra makes taking your toys out fun, because the powerful V8 engine produces plenty of torque between 327 and 401 ft-lb, depending on the equipment you choose.

 

  1. Pioneering Safety in the Industry

Toyota was the first to offer Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA). These two innovative driver assistance features offer the Tundra driver greater confidence. Tundra also has eight airbags, including driver and front passenger knee airbags – an exclusive feature of the Tundra. Every Tundra comes standard with an integrated backup camera and Star Safety System, a robust safety package including Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRAC), Anti-lock Brake System, Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA), and Smart Stop Technology (SST).

 

  1. Peace of Mind with Protection

Every new Tundra comes with ToyotaCare for two years or 24,000 miles. The peace of mind protection package includes No Cost Maintenance and 24-Hour Roadside Assistance. You will not have to pay for an oil change, tire rotation, or fluid refill for the first two years. You can enjoy owning your Tundra with peace of mind because Toyota protects you as a member of the Toyota owners family.

 

Tundra owners know Toyota’s full-size truck provides dependability that is difficult to compete with, which is what keeps Tundra owners loyal for years. The Tundra is an attractive vehicle with power to spare, driver assistance technology, an inventive Entune voice controlled infotainment system, and an exceptional protection plan. The confidence you receive from owning your Tundra will take you places you have never been before.
