Anyone plow snow with a Tundra?
The plow I run is 770 pounds with about another 105 pounds for the vehicle mount on a Non-ota.
I guess my question should be, is a Tundra Transmission and front end strong enough to handle this task?
In this area I mostly see the big 3 trucks with plows.
Just my opinion here, but I wouldn't have ever put a plow on mine without beefing up the suspension first, I had to beef up the rear suspension with airbags just to keep it from bottoming out with a max capacity load (mine was used primarily as a work truck). That was a 2007 model year... perhaps the suspensions are better on the new ones?? I think the big V8 engine, and the transmission (especially the models with transmission coolers) would be up to the task, the suspension would be my only concern.
