When can I buy a Capstone?

The 2022 Toyota Tundra Capstone will be available to purchase in the spring of 2022.

You’ll be happy you did when you’re sitting in your luxury truck with its panoramic sunroof and acoustic glass on the front doors.

If you’re torn about whether the 2022 Toyota Tundra Capstone is worth it, Toyota has thrown in some features that might make you feel its worth its $75,000 price tag. There’s an available Adaptive Variable Suspension and Toyota’s Safety Sense, which is Toyota’s suite of safety features.

Still, the Capstone is an expensive truck – very expensive. Whether it’s really worth its price will have to be seen once it’s available and people start driving and reviewing it.
