REVIEW: 2014 Toyota Tundra Crew Max Platinum Edition (VIDEO) - Equipment World Magazine
Tundra’s new look and feel Visually the new Tundra looks more angular and bolder than the previous model. Toyota designers have improved passenger comfort in the Crew Max with a new front and rear seat design and improved front seat ventilation. In addition, front seats have more than an inch of additional travel, so the big-and-tall driver can drive with ease. Another improvement is the Crew Max’s rear seats can now be folded up for additional cargo carrying capability while maintaining a comfortable seating back angle and lowering load-in height by more than 11 inches. That said, I have never been fond of the firmness of Tundra’s seats or how much plastic is used in the interior. Toyota added some cute stitched padding on the dash and door panels this year, yet I still see a lot of plastic and hard interior surfaces that take away from the overall luxuriousness portrayed by the Platinum moniker. Quick and agile As for the handling side, very little has changed save for minor tweaks in suspension (shock) tuning and tightening up the steering to improve straight-line stability, which really makes this truck an easy drive when towing.
