By Tim Esterdahl Published: 2022-03-15T21:15:43+00:00 Updated: 2026-08-19T16:25:48+00:00 ![Featured image]() With the new Tundra on the market, a lot of fans have been wondering if they can use a 2022 Toyota Tundra with a snow plow. We wondered as well. Reaching out to Toyota, we received a direct answer from engineering in regards to using a snow plow. The answer is pretty simple: “Toyota engineers did not design the truck with a snow plow in mind, so we cannot recommend it for that usage. The front end was opened up considerably in terms of airflow compared to the prior generation, and obviously blocking that would be problematic and therefore we do not advise doing so.” As the picture above shows from [Fisher Plows](), it used to be possible to use a [Toyota Tundra]() with a snow plow until they changed engines. ### **Why does air flow matter for a 2022 Toyota Tundra snow plow?** While the attachment points could be worked around for attaching a Toyota Tundra snow plow, the real problem is the air flow, and that is basically due to the new 3.5-liter V-6 twin-turbo engine. Turbo engines require a consistent influx of air flow for the turbos to work properly. For the Tundra, there are additional radiators in the engine bay to help keep the turbos working properly. Putting a massive wind block, which is what a snow plow is, would drastically reduce the air flow coming into the engine and severely reduce the effectiveness of the radiators. This reasoning is inline with why the Ford F-150 can only use a snow plow on trucks equipped with the 5.0-liter V-8 engine, aka the one without turbos. ### **The bottom line on the 2022 Toyota Tundra snow plow** New trucks with new engines meant to meet rising global emissions standards are going to disrupt some people’s plans for how they want to use their truck. In this case, the snow plow for the 2022 Tundra is going away forever. **Related links:** - [Can you disable the fake engine noise on 2022 Toyota Tundra?]() - [What does the 2022 Toyota Tundra yellow
