The Toyota 1794 Edition Tundra has one of those names that feels like it should mean something.
And it does, but probably not what you’re picturing.
It’s not a horsepower figure, a torque rating, or even a production number.
It’s tied to a piece of history you’d never expect to find hiding in a pickup’s spec sheet.

A Texas ranch, a Toyota badge, and a little luxury thrown in
Here’s the deal – the ‘1794’ traces back to a Texas ranch that once stood on the very ground where Toyota now builds the Tundra.
The ranch was founded in – you guessed it – 1794, and Toyota decided the history was worth immortalizing on a badge.
It’s the only Toyota model with a name tied to a real slice of American history.
In the 2025 lineup, there are two versions carrying the name: the standard 1794 Edition and the hybrid 1794 i-FORCE MAX.
Both use Toyota’s twin-turbo 3.4L V6, with the hybrid jumping from 389 to 437hp thanks to some electric muscle.
Under the skin, it’s familiar Tundra hardware – the real difference is in how it looks and feels.
Think colors like Smoked Mesquite, Wind Chill Pearl, Terra, and Blueprint.
Inside, there’s Saddle Tan leather, American Walnut wood trim, chrome accents, and 20-inch machine-finish alloys.
The cabin blends luxury ranch house vibes with Toyota’s usual spread of tech and safety features.
What the 1794 badge will cost you
All that extra story and style puts the 1794 high on the Tundra price ladder, topped only by the TRD Pro and Capstone trims.
The cheapest route in is the non-hybrid 5.5ft bed at $64,360 before fees, with the 6.5ft bed adding $3,330.
Go hybrid and you’re starting at $68,285, or $71,615 with the long bed.
For an extra 48hp and a bit more shove, the price bump isn’t too major – though the standard 389hp engine is already more than enough to hustle a truck this size.
It’s not just a pickup with some chrome and a fancy badge.
The Tundra 1794 Edition is Toyota’s way of wrapping capability, comfort, and a bit of unexpected heritage into one polished package – the kind of truck that works hard but still turns heads when you roll into town.The post This is what the 1794 means on the Toyota Tundra Special Edition appeared first on Supercar Blondie.
