Living in the Bowling Green area means there are many different types of driving you’ll have to do. Our area is beautiful, with natural sights that put other states to shame, but there’s no question that you need to drive to get just about anywhere around here. You have some rough, rural roads, quiet suburban roads, and the highway, and you want a vehicle that can adapt to all of these environments. A car that’s good on the freeway but runs into trouble the moment the terrain gets a little rough will not cut it. Versatility is vital to your success in our area, and the 2024 Toyota Tundra offers precisely that.
The Tundra is not simply a truck for all drivers but a truck that will allow you to be all different types of drivers. We know that most who hit the road don’t do it for only one reason. They have different purposes depending on the day of the week. The Tundra is ready to be there for you when you’re working on Monday and there for you when you’re out for some fun on Saturday. It’s ready when the roads are wet and when it’s time to leave the road altogether. You’ll feel prepared for every adventure, even when those adventures are a surprise. With the 2024 Toyota Tundra, you’re always ready to roll.
Tough Driving Conditions? Not for the Tundra
If you’re someone for whom driving into nature always sounds like a great idea, then you’re going to love the Tundra. The TRD Off-Road Package available on most trim levels outfits the Tundra with all-terrain tires and Bilstein shocks to better handle rough conditions, as well as a skid plate and mudguards to keep your Tundra protected. Even if you’re not an outdoors person, you may encounter iffy roads as you drive around Kentucky. You don’t have to be someone who goes camping to find yourself managing a dirt path or some muddy terrain. Even the sides of highways can become treacherous after a hard rain, as mud leaks onto the road.
You won’t be too concerned if you’re in your Tundra as you can change its driving mode to meet the moment. It has mud, sand, and rock modes. Engine throttle and traction are adjusted depending on the mode so that the Tundra drives in a fashion that best matches the conditions. The Tundra’s ten-speed automatic transmission also assists in allowing the Tundra to meet the moment. By providing more opportunities for gear shifts, the ten-speed automatic transmission adds to the smooth journeys the Tundra provides, even if you’re barreling through some mud. What makes this so exciting is that you travel with extra peace of mind and can change your day’s plans at the spur of the moment, knowing your Tundra is up for anything.
Towing Means Nothing Gets Left Behind
The Tundra has a compelling towing capacity of 12,000 lbs. That’s more than double the weight of the Tundra itself. You can move a camper, and quite a large one at that, to Mammoth Cave National Park to enjoy the great outdoors with friends and family. If you have equipment to move to a job site, you’ll be able to do it all in one trip.
However, towing capacity is only part of the story. Being able to tow a lot doesn’t mean a thing if you don’t feel secure while doing so. The right engine will give you the confidence you need to tow across Kentucky. The Tundra has two options, both of which will give you just that confidence. The first is a 3.4L V6 engine, rated for up to 389 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque. The second is a hybrid powertrain, a recent addition to the Tundra. The latter actually gets you better performance stats, cranking out 437 hp and 583 lb-ft of torque. Towing capacity drops slightly to 11,450 lbs with the hybrid powerplant, but those stellar numbers mean you will be sailing down the highway even with over ten thousand pounds of gear.
The available tow mirrors also help make towing a bit simpler. These mirrors can extend further out and at an angle so that you better see what’s behind you. They can be easily manipulated from inside the Tundra and retracted when not needed, acting as regular side-view mirrors.
Capability Makes You Stand Out at Work
If you’re a laborer, then you know the ability to tow can make you a star employee. If you’re an entrepreneur, having the ability to tow instead of relying on someone else’s schedule and pay them can be a serious asset. Anyone who does manual work of any sort has a step ahead when they own a truck like the Tundra.
Towing isn’t the only reason this truck is work-friendly. The Tundra can also handle a heavy payload of up to 1,940 lbs in its bed. Moving gear won’t be any trouble. What you’re moving will be well-protected, too, as the bed is aluminum-reinforced and has an ultra-durable Sheet-Molded Composite surface. The latter also ensures that your Tundra bed won’t get any damage as you load and unload, so even after a bunch of adventures, the Tundra still looks brand new, impressing everyone who glances at it.
Technology Keeps Your Family Entertained and Safe
In addition to being a workhorse and an adventurer, the Tundra is a family vehicle. When you’re driving with your loved ones, you’ll know the Tundra is working overtime to keep all your passengers safe and sound. The Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 program has many safety features that alert you to danger and can even react for you. Whether it’s lane-keeping assist or an alert about an imminent collision, your Tundra will do its all to avoid trouble, which means your confidence while driving will be higher.
Everyone on your trip will be able to stay entertained, too. The Tundra comes with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, so you can connect your device right to the Tundra’s touchscreen. You also have the option of WiFi Connect, which will allow the kids to enjoy their own devices during a lengthy trip. You can go even further with Integrated Streaming, which connects your Apple Music or Amazon Music subscription directly to the Tundra. This assures no one will be bored when aboard your pickup truck.
One Truck to Rule Them All
The Tundra is clearly a varied, versatile pickup. Workers, commuters, adventurers, and family drivers can all find success if they own this Toyota truck. Expand your horizons by owning a Tundra that lets you do almost anything on the road.
