Utility
Drivers with frequent child-duty might favor the Tundra over the average truck. The average truck is a better choice than the Toyota Tundra regarding hauling capacity, especially if you frequently need to carry a lot of cargo or sizeable pets. There's little the Tundra can tow that the typical truck cannot.

Dimensions
The Toyota Tundra's tank is almost the same size as the typical truck's, though the typical truck's is a tad bigger. The Toyota Tundra and the typical truck compete for the same parking spaces.

Convenience
You will most certainly have to visit your friendly gas station more often with the Toyota Tundra than with the typical truck.

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs about the same to get the typical truck to the dealership as the Toyota Tundra. The Toyota Tundra will tax your gasoline budget substantially more than the typical truck will. Regarding gas mileage, the average truck and the Toyota Tundra don't differ much. In terms of MSRP, the typical truck doesn't cost much less than the Toyota Tundra.

Handling
With its tighter turning circle, the Toyota Tundra is quite certainly nimbler than the typical truck, something to consider if you do a lot of city driving; on the flip side, bear in mind that a vehicle with a tight turning circle may feel a bit twitchy on the highway.

Drivetrain
The average truck's engine is considerably bigger than the Tundra's. Note that more massive engines may use more gasoline than smaller ones. Torque equals pickup, and the typical truck will have picked up and gone by the time the Toyota Tundra finally gets moving.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the typical truck offers a bit more head room than the Tundra, there honestly isn't much of a difference. While the rear of the Toyota Tundra offers a bit more head- and leg-room than the typical truck, there frankly isn't much of a difference.

Warranty
Although the basic warranty that comes with the average truck is somewhat longer than the Toyota Tundra's, the difference isn't too marked.
