A Toyota Tundra from 2008 weighs how many tons?
The 2008 Toyota Tundra is a full-size half-ton truck that is available in Regular Cab, Double Cab, and CrewMax body types. The Tundra CrewMax is a very large Crew Cab, but the Double Cab is essentially a giant extended cab with four forward-hinged doors. While the CrewMax is only available with a 5.5-foot bed, the Regular and Double Cabs can be configured with a 6.5-foot or 8-foot bed.
The base model Grade, the midrange SR5, and the opulent Limited are available for the 2008 Toyota Tundra. The Double Cab and CrewMax are available in Grade, SR5, and Limited trim levels, whereas the standard-cab truck is only available in the Grade configuration.
Which Tundra is able to haul 12000 lbs?
The towing capability of the Toyota Tundra varies depending on trim, cab size, drivetrain, and bed size. Choose the Tundra SR5 with the 42 drivetrain, Double Cab, and 6.5-foot bed to receive the maximum 12,000-pound towing capacity.
Where was the Tundra made in 2008?
Since May 1999, the Japanese manufacturer Toyota has been producing the Toyota Tundra in the United States. The Toyota T100 was the first full-size truck manufactured by a Japanese company, and the Tundra was the first full-size pickup from a Japanese manufacturer to be produced in North America. The Tundra was a finalist for the North American Truck of the Year honor and was named Truck of the Year by Motor Trend magazine in 2000 and 2008 as well. The only full-size pickup truck produced in Texas, it was first constructed in a new Toyota plant in Princeton, Indiana, but production was moved in 2008 to Toyota’s San Antonio, Texas, facility.
Do Tundras count as 3/4 tons?
A Ford F-150 is not a 3/4-ton truck, to put it simply. The Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, Ram 1500, Nissan Titan, and Toyota Tundra are all 1/2-ton pickups, as are the Ford F-150 and others. In comparison to the bigger 3/4-ton trucks, these vehicles typically have lesser towing, payload, horsepower, and torque ratings. They fall into the 6,001 to 8,500-pound GVWR category.
Key Points
- Although two Toyota Tundra owners exceeded the million-mile barrier, most drivers should anticipate that their Tundra will achieve its maximum mileage of roughly 300,000.
- Exhaust manifold leaks and ball-joint failure are frequent issues in high-mileage Tundras.
- For the Toyota truck, repairs are inexpensive.
