Toyota Tundra Will Get a 39-Gallon Fuel Tank

TFL Truck is saying the Toyota Tundra will get a 39-gallon tank.

This information most likely came from the TRD Pro event they attended last weekend. Our guess is that the sources there confirmed they were working on it (similar to what the same sources told us at the Jackson, Wyoming event in August, 2013).

The truth is Toyota has needed to offer this size tank for a while especially for RV owners and tradesman living in areas where gas stations are sparse (like Canada or western U.S. states like Montana). These owners have lamented several times to us about the tiny gas tank.

No word on which model year it will be offered.

Here is the link to the TFL Truck story.
