A pickup truck that would fit in a class of its own, the Toyota Tundra CrewMax 4wd truck is one of the biggest vehicles on the road. Or so it would appear.

With a move to offer more value than before, the CrewMax's standard equipment has been increased over the previous year's model. Buyers will find their Tundras equipped with power bucket front seats, AM/FM 6-disc CD audio system, a cold kit, heated mirrors, and mud guards.

The four-wheel drive Tundra CrewMax is offered in Tundra grade, SR5, and Limited trim levels. Standard power arrives via the Toyota 4-liter EFI V6 which features 236 horsepower at 5,400 rpm, and 266 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm. Optional engines include a 4.7-liter EFI V8 with 276 horsepower and 313 lb-ft of torque, and a 5.7-liter EFI V8 with 381 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of torque. The 4x4 drivetrain package features a four-wheel demand system with electronically controlled two-speed transfer case. The system provides 4x2, 4x4 Hi and 4x4 Lo ranges via a dial on the dashboard, Maximum towing capacity with the V8 engines is up to 10,500-lbs.

A standard Automatic Limited-slip Differential (Auto-LSD) provides improved grip and acceleration. Joining the Auto LSD is Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) as standard equipment, which according to Toyota, is a significant 'first' in the segment.

A choice of five-speed-automatic transmissions is available depending on cab, engine and bed size, while a six-speed automatic overdrive transmission is available on the 5.7-liter V8. The 4.0-liter carries an estimated EPA rating of 15 city /19 highway, while the 4.7-liter achieves 14 city/17 highway. The large 5.7-liter engine has an EPA rating of 14 city/ 18 highway.

The Tundra CrewMax standard bed model rides on a 145.7-inch wheelbase. It has an overall length of 228.7-inches.

Base Tundra Grade models feature P255/70R18 tires on 18-inch steel wheels, Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABS), Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD), Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), not to mention the usual array of airbags, including a roll-sensing curtain airbag with cutoff switch. (The cutoff switch disables the roll sensor, when intentionally on an ultra-steep grade). Other standard items include a tilt steering wheel, three auxiliary power outlets, tailgate assist, slide and recline rear bench seat, and dual zone front and rear air conditioning.

The Tundra interior has been designed with customers who use their vehicles as mobile offices. A 'command and control' center provides a clear view of the road and dash panel, as well as keeping all knobs and switches within easy reach. A center console on bucket-seat models hides a storage bin with room for hanging files, as well as a laptop computer. Close the armrest over the bin, and a work shelf presents itself. A 3.4-liter upper glove box is large enough to swallow a standard Thermos bottle with additional space available in the lower 9.5-liter glove box.

Attention to detail is evident throughout the Tundra. Seeing that many workers wear protective clothing while on the job, knobs, buttons and levers throughout have been engineered so they can be operated even while wearing gloves.

A full array of customizing options exists so that Tundra owners can personalize their trucks in the manner they see fit. Extras include Cold kits, towing mirrors, Aluminum alloy wheels, DVD navigation, power/tilt moonroofs and more.
