2021 Toyota Tundra

vs 2021 Nissan Titan in Kennesaw, GA

If you’re not careful, you’ll get lost in daydreaming of what you could accomplish with the 2021 Toyota Tundra as your work partner. Capability is at the heart of what this utility pickup truck brings to the table, which is great news for rough-and-tumblers like yourself who like to see things get done right. From impressing the boss during the week to hauling those fancy toys (like RVs and four-wheelers) during the weekend, you’ll get plenty of use out of your Tundra. Plus, with loads of tech and convenience features that are either standard or available on higher trims (like heated front bucket seats, a power moonroof or Apple CarPlay®), the Tundra has a few bells and whistles, too. Not bad for a powerhouse! But if there’s one thing about the full-size pickup truck segment, it’s that the competition is fierce. If you’ve been considering a rival of the Tundra, like the 2021 Nissan Titan, keep scrolling down. We have a helpful graph that’ll set the record straight.

If you’re searching for a capable pickup between these two, we’d recommend the 2021 Toyota Tundra. And it’s not just because it’s one of our personal favorites. With a much lower starting MSRP than the Titan, the Tundra is the more affordable option, plus it has a larger maximum available towing capacity, payload capacity and available fuel tank. You’ll have the option to add Rigid Industries® fog lamps to your Tundra (as compared to LED fog lights with the Titan). Both trucks offer standard Trailer Sway Control, a vital safety feature to keep trailers more stable on highways, but it’s the Tundra with a larger engine. For a utility vehicle, you’ll want to go with the pickup that offers more… utility. And with the facts in black and white, how could you not drive home the 2021 Toyota Tundra over the competition?

The only way to be certain of your vehicle’s exact curb weight is to weigh your vehicle without passengers or cargo. [Calculated with the new SAE J2807 method. Installation of a tow hitch receiver or other accessories located near the rear bumper may require disabling or removing the kick sensor, and the sensor operation setting in your vehicle should be turned off.
