McKinnon Toyota Reviews 2017 vs 2018 Toyota Tundra

Oct 27, 2017

The 2018 Toyota Tundra is building on a legacy begun by its predecessors. An emphasis on safety is expanding to include automated features and important warning systems. Rest assured, Tundras remain one of the toughest and most durable trucks you can buy. Here’s how the 2018 compares to the 2017.
2017 Tundra Safety
For this model year, Toyota added two more airbags for a total of eight. That is the most airbags on any truck other than the similarly-equipped Toyota Tacoma. Toyota also offered a blind spot monitor to help you keep an eye on side traffic. Learn about pricing at McKinnon Toyota dealer near Hoover AL.
2018 Tundra Safety
Maintaining these advantages, the 2018 Tundra is leaping ahead by adding a long list of crash warnings and avoidance technologies. While some trucks do offer these features, none are standards. Furthermore, some truckmakers don’t offer these features at all. The most significant is a forward collision warning with an autobrake to speed up stopping times. A pedestrian watch can trigger the autobrake, adding an important tool to a busy driver’s toolbox. As you can imagine, this system will be helpful on busy worksites. Furthermore, to avoid swiping another vehicle, a lane assist seeks to pull the truck back into the proper trajectory.
2018 Tundra Automation
Busy drivers will appreciate a chance to relax with adaptive cruise control on board. This regulates speed and matches it to conditions. Likewise, self-adjusting high beams raise or lower light intensity as needed for both your safety and the safety of oncoming traffic.
