2005 Toyota Tundra Overview

Introduction

The Toyota Tundra is smooth and quiet, light on its feet, and easy and enjoyable to drive on a daily basis. It also incorporates Toyota's renowned quality, durability and reliability.

Toyota Tundra is available as a two-door Regular Cab, an extended Access Cab with auxiliary rear doors, and as a true four-door Double Cab. Two- and four-wheel-drive versions are offered, employing similar suspensions and bed heights. Three trim levels are available: base, SR5, and Limited. Access Cab V8 models are available with a full-width or stepside bed. Two engines are available. The base V6 has grown from 3.4 to 4.0 liters. It still breathes through dual-overhead-cam heads, and now uses Toyota's computer-controlled variable valve timing with intelligence to produce 245 horsepower. The optional i-Force DOHC V8 sticks with its previous 4.7-liter displacement, but acquires VVT-i to boost horsepower from 240 to 282, and torque from 315 pound-feet to 325. Transmissions are new, too. The V6 now comes with a new six-speed manual. A new five-speed automatic is optional with the V6, standard with the V8.

For 2005, the Toyota Tundra gets a power increase and more standard features.
