2019 Toyota Tundra Reviews Summary

When it comes to pickups, simplicity used to be king. Leaf-spring suspensions, pushrod V8s, and no-nonsense interiors were staples of the game. But today, pickups include all sorts of sophisticated features, from car suspensions and twin-turbocharged engines to all the luxury and technology you’d expect from a luxury import. But the Toyota Tundra has refused to follow the herd, offering the tried-and-true formula that’s been a proven winner for decades. For some, that simplicity is a turnoff. But for others, it's exactly what’s missing from today’s truck offerings. For 2019, the TRD Pro trim returns, giving the Tundra a revised suspension, gorgeous new BBS wheels, and a price tag inflated by nearly $4,000.

2020 Nissan Titan Reviews Summary

Not many shoppers pick the Titan over a Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado, or Ram 1500. Nissan has redesigned the Titan only once since its 2004 model-year debut, and twice over, it's been mediocre. Just as you might have done, we've ignored the Titan since our last test in 2017. But for 2020, Nissan has responded to our complaints about the Titan with major strides in technology, safety, and overall value—not just among other Titans, but all full-size pickups. We're diving in for a closer look.
