Canada is the world’s biggest winter playground, and Sault Ste. Marie is a city surrounded by some of the best tundra for outdoor fun in the Algoma region. It makes sense then that the truck most suited for winter adventure lovers is also the best Tundra ever – the 2022 Toyota Tundra.
The newly redesigned Toyota Tundra has changed the game, especially for outdoor enthusiasts in the Sault who like to put their trucks to the test year-round.
The Tundra’s i-Force 3.5L twin-turbo V6 engine delivers the kind of power that will help drivers tame the deepest snow-covered roads Algoma can muster. Up to 12,000 pounds (5,440kg) of towing capacity and 1,940 pounds (880kg) payload capacity makes hauling snowmobiles, ATVs, and ice fishing gear to your favourite off-road fishing spot with ease and comfort.
Not only does its 389 horsepower deliver the torque you need, but it is also easy on fuel – up to 40 percent better fuel economy than the previous generation of Tundra vehicles.
Combine horsepower with available adaptive variable suspension (AVS) and tackle the most rugged roads with traction, stability and comfort.
Sure, improved performance, a powerful and efficient engine, advanced off-road technology, impressive towing and maximum payload capacity are nice premium refinements. However, in the 2022 Tundra, they certainly aren’t the only ones.
“The new 2022 Tundra is completely redesigned from the ground up, inside and out,” said Mario Palumbo, Dealer Principal at Northside Toyota. “When the truck was built and redesigned coming out of Texas, everything in comparison to the old Tundra trucks is brand new, from safety and comfort features to ground-breaking technology in terms of multimedia entertainment.”
Simply put, the new Toyota Tundra has taken a quantum leap forward in terms of technology and design, from the most durable external paint to the luxurious comfort of the amenity-rich cabin interior.
Let’s look at a few examples starting with the tailgate.
Steel enhancements in the intelligently designed tailgate mean it can fully support the weight of your snowmobile or ATV when loading; that’s great peace of mind when hauling off-road vehicles in and out of the truck bed. Additionally, the all-new Toyota Tundra comes with a full composite bed formed from a new high-strength Sheet-Molded Compound that’s virtually indestructible. It’s stronger and more durable with added protection against dents, dings and rust.
The tailgate is also easily lowered with the touch of a button conveniently located on the back taillight.
For winter motoring in the heart of Algoma’s backcountry, nothing is more important than interior warmth and comfort. The 2022 Tundra features heated and ventilated 8-way power adjustable seats for the driver and front passenger, all cloaked in Semi Aniline leather so you can adventure in comfort.
Additionally, the all-new Toyota Multimedia system sets the highest standard when it comes to connectivity and digital applications. With an available 14-inch touchscreen and Cloud Navigation with real-time updates, the 2022 Toyota Tundra is a winter warrior’s ultimate dream.
“They’re in stock and continually coming in,” added Palumbo. “If we don’t have something here you want, we can order it with the exact colour and configuration you’re looking for.”
