2021 Toyota Tundra Questions & Answers

  • What can I tow in a Toyota? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. Defying your Tundra towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Tundra is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.

Regularly checking and exchanging your 2021 Tundra’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform.
