The Tamiya Tundra High-Lift Truck (model number 58415) captures the look of the Toyota Double Cab in 1/10 scale. The full-size Tundra made waves after its February 2007 debut as Toyota's notably American-built pick-up, valued for its robustness and everyday usability. The Tamiya kit recreates that functional aesthetic while offering a platform ready for outdoor running.
The chassis combines steel channels and resin cross members to create a reliable ladder frame that stands up to rougher surfaces. Its centrally mounted 3-speed transmission helps keep the centre of gravity low and supports controlled crawling and steady gear changes. The full-time 4WD layout improves grip and handling when negotiating loose or uneven ground.
The model comes with chrome wheels and bead lock rings for a period-correct look, and the tyre pattern is similar to those found on F-350 and Hilux models. Owners can fit wider cross-country tyres or the MFC-02 Multi-Function Unit to add realistic lighting, sound and vibration for enhanced realism on track days or at scale meets.
With solid engineering and room for upgrades, Tamiya 58415 is a good match for hobbyists who want a scale look and reliable off-road performance.
