Apparently the Toyota TRD Pro model is for posers.

The youtuber claimes to have taken Yukons, Titans, Broncos, Suburbans, Silverados, F-150s, and Frontiers through that exact trail with no issues over the past several years. Even the previous generation of the same truck has gone through this minor obstacle without losing parts.

I dislike when people call SUV's trucks and vice versa.

This generation Tundra and Sequioa are extremely disappointing. If you have the old V8 model - keep it forever.

That thing is hideous. If he'd have pulled the entire front end off, the styling would have likely improved.

Needs $7500 worth of lifts, bumpers tires and wheels baw.

And a roof rack, and a little ladder to access the roof rack.

Does not know that vehicle is not really setup to do the off roading he is trying to do?

Weak sauce. Should have gotten a GX from the carpool line.

He went through a rut that was deeper than the his clearance. Of course he got stuck. He should have had one side up on the center between the ruts.

That being said this thing looks like it’s laying on the ground already

He is a Canadian who can't drive. What do you expect?

Broke is pretty strong. Nothing mechanical was affected. He jacked up some plastic fascia shite and popped out a fog light that could be popped back into place. He got himself unstuck and drove the rest of his little course without any issues. Even the silly turtling at that hump on the trail which scratched up that fancy aluminum skid plate was handled with ease mechanically.

Of course, the clearance on that thing is ridiculously low for what he was trying to do and the flawed design feature of having said front end plastic trim so low to the ground should be obvious to anyone with a brain looking to buy one for use on that terrain.

Many years ago when Mercedes opened here and started producing the M class they wanted to show how great it was off road.

They built this big track at the plant in Vance and used it to film how awesome the M class was off road. A friend of a friend was (is) a dozer operator and built most of the hills, bogs and other "obstacles". He got tired of the German engineer constantly bad mouthing American trucks, saying the M class was superior in all aspects. Dude laughed at him, got in his 2WD Chevy S10 and drove the entire course without ever getting stuck.

The engineer was not amused. Dude didnt care, but they told him to not return to the job site.
