2016 Toyota Tundra Janeseville, Wisconsin
One key difference between Toyota’s full-size pickup and Ford’s is that the 2016 Tundra offers two V8 engines to choose from: the base 4.6L V8 (which comes standard on the SR double cab and SR5) and the 5.7L V8 (which is standard on the regular cab, Limited, Platinum, 1794, and TDR Pro trims.) A six-speed automatic transmission is standard across the board for the Toyota Tundra and while rear-wheel drive is standard, four-wheel drive is an available option.
Beneath the hood of the F-150, Ford instead enlists a 3.5L V6 as its base engine which only produces 282 horsepower, compared to the Tundra’s 310 HP. The next engine up is the turbocharged 2.7L V6 followed by the 5.0L V8 that is recommended for towing, and finally the turbocharged 3.5L V6.
The 2016 Toyota Tundra and Ford F-150 are both tough contenders when it comes to towing. The towing capacity range for the Tundra is estimated between 9,800-10,500 lbs. In addition to confident towing ability, the Toyota Tundra is naturally built to haul but gives drivers three bed length options: a 5.5ft short bed (CrewMax), 6.5ft standard bed (Double Cab), and an 8.1ft long bed (Regular Cab, Double Cab).
