After a long day of work, or a long haul to the perfect Anderson, South Carolina boat launch, we know it feels great to stretch out and unwind. Your crew, and your family, will no doubt appreciate the extra space offered by the new 2017 Tundra lineup at Ralph Hayes Toyota. And to enhance Tundra’s already open feeling even more, 2017 CrewMax models now include a standard power vertical sliding rear window and available moonroof! When you enter a new 2017 Toyota Tundra in Anderson you’ll find an interior that inspires with finely stitched seats, a driver-focused center stack and ultra-crisp gauges. We paid special attention to the details of nearly every interior surface in these all-new Tundra models, so no matter where you end up sitting, you’ll feel like that spot was made just for you. Available dual zone automatic climate control offers individual temperature settings for both the driver and front passenger. We know that your truck might sometimes have to double as your office, so this innovative feature of the 2017 Toyota Tundra helps to keep everyone along for the ride nice and comfortable.
Purposeful Power with Confident Control
381 horsepower and 401 lb.-ft. of torque, a 6-speed automatic transmission, plus a standard Tow Package with added engine and transmission oil coolers equal heavy-duty towing capability [1] on the streets of Anderson, South Carolina. Add Double Overhead Cams (DOHC), a 32-valve head design and Dual Independent Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (Dual Independent VVT-i), and you get a 2017 Toyota Tundra i-FORCE drivetrain that is powerful enough to tow a space shuttle [2]. If that’s more muscle than you’re looking for, there’s also Tundra’s 4.6L V8 engine that is packed with technology features and delivers 310 horsepower and 327 lb.-ft. of torque via a 6-speed automatic transmission. It also benefits from Double Overhead Cams, a 32-valve head design and Dual Independent Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (Dual Independent VVT-i), so all the power you need is ready when you need it.
Standard on all 2017 Tundra’s at Ralph Hayes Toyota, Auto LSD (Automatic Limited-Slip Differential) [3] works like a traditional limited-slip differential, but with a high-tech twist. Instead of controlling slip mechanically, Auto LSD applies brakes individually to wheels with no traction. And unlike Traction Control, it doesn’t cut engine power. This helps give 2017 Tundra owners in Anderson, South Carolina added control while distributing power to where it can be most effective. And the best part of all, because the system utilizes the brake system, there are no extra components that add to your overall ownership costs! Tundra’s performance features don’t stop there though, because these powerful pickups bring more to the table than you might think. The added traction of 4WD is great, but with the A-TRAC system of the 2017 Toyota Tundra in Anderson, it’s even better. A-TRAC is a 4WD traction control system that uses the 4-channel ABS system to control power flow to the front and rear wheels (without cutting throttle input) to help create traction no matter where in Anderson, South Carolina you happen to be. It’s just one more way the new 2017 Tundra lineup at Ralph Hayes Toyota keeps you moving, no matter what the situation is.
The Ultimate in Truck Utility
Sometimes you just want to carry a little more stuff, or shield some important items from the South Carolina elements. With seats that fold up, the new 2017 Toyota Tundra in Anderson makes it easier to get in and out, and load or unload your gear. Opt for the available front bucket seats and you’ll get a center console with a covered storage compartment, as well as a convenient 12V auxiliary power outlet. Tundra’s easy lower and lift tailgate can be opened and closed with just two fingers, plus it’s easily removed and can be locked to secure cargo you’ve got concealed under a tonneau cover or shell. There’s also an available deck rail system that incorporates four adjustable tie-down cleats (each rated at 220 lbs.) to help Tundra owners in Anderson, South Carolina keep heavy stuff they’re hauling safely and securely in place.

[1] Before towing, confirm your vehicle and trailer are compatible, hooked up and loaded properly and that you have any necessary additional equipment. Do not exceed any Weight Ratings and follow all instructions in your Owner’s Manual. The maximum you can tow depends on base curb weight plus the total weight of any cargo, occupants, and added vehicle equipment. “Added vehicle equipment” includes additional standard/optional equipment and accessories added by the manufacturer, dealers, and/or vehicle owners. The only way to be certain of your vehicle’s exact curb weight is to weigh your vehicle without passengers or cargo.
[2] The 2012 Tundra CrewMax 5.7L V8 is towing far beyond its published towing capacity in a one-time, short-distance event. Never tow beyond a vehicle’s published towing capacities. Always consult the Owner’s Manual.
