Despite a handful of updates over the years, the Toyota Tundra is one of the oldest vehicles on sale in America today. When the current Tundra debuted in 2007, it was a compelling alternative to the Ford F-150, Chevrolet Silverado and Ram 1500. And while we still like some things about the Tundra — the standard V8 engine, roomy interior and decent list of driver aids — there isn't much else to separate it from the crowd. And all of its competitors have seen at least one full redesign since 2007.

Toyota has made only minor changes to the Tundra for 2021, with a pair of new special edition models that focus on changes to the truck's styling rather than improvements to features. Overall, we think it's worth taking a closer look at the competition from Ford, Chevrolet, Nissan and Ram.

Which Tundra does MatoCar recommend?

The midlevel SR5 trim is the way to go. It has a handful of upgrades over the base model and is available with a number of options including the off-road-focused TRD Sport package.

The Toyota Tundra is available in six trim levels: SR, SR5, Limited, Platinum, 1794 Edition and TRD Pro. The new Nightshade Special Edition and Trail Edition packages are optional on certain trims. The Tundra is available in double-cab, crew-cab and the larger CrewMax configurations with three available bed lengths.
