2023 Toyota Tundra | Owner Review | (Part 2) 

You hit the nail on the head about the subscription issue. The move from "products" to "services" in ALL industries is one that only stands to hurt the consumer long term. When I buy something I want to own it.

I have a 22 Tundra Plat Hybrid. In colder weather the mileage went down to about 17mpg using 4-wheel drive and warming up. Now that summer is back, I'm getting about 20-21mpg. The seat was a bit firm at first, but now super comfortable. I don't have wind noise or rattles. Rock solid, love it!

The technology is what made me order one. So glad to find your video. I may do a video on mine when it arrives soon. Thanks

My understanding of the reason that they dropped the V-8 engine is that no matter what they could have done with it, it would never be able to meet upcoming CO2 emissions standards. Apparently Toyota looks about ten years ahead while other manufacturer's look less.

Definitely watched this review first. Clearly going to have to watch Part 1. Great vid!

A great video and I thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have a 2022 Toyota Tundra 1794 that I love and your going over many of the features is very helpful, especially the slider adjustment. I was having a problem keeping my truck from bottoming out and the Toyota dealer made an adjustment that helped. I think it could use a little more.

Really great review. I appreciate the time you took to explain the features. I have a 2022 Tundra with 9500 miles and I learned some things I did not know.

I really appreciated these reviews and your approach. Thanks for taking the time. I'm considering this or the Sequoia in 3-5 years. Keep up the good work.

Good review I bought a 2023 Tundra limited with the TRD package and really love it still figuring out all the details

Haha what a coincidence! I just mentioned you in my Grizzly video (uploading as we speak). Great video, I love the new Tundra. Going to be my next truck for sure in a year or two. 💪🏻

I learned something new about the air suspension adjustment. Thanks.

Appreciate the notes on the air suspension adjustment ✌️

Great thanks for the suspension advice great video btw I got the same truck but with tow mirrors

Great job buddy we absolutely love our 2023 4X2 Limited hybrid Tundra so far so good after 2K miles no issues at all while averaging 21 mpg in the city. Sub

Nice review. I recently bought a 2023 Platinum and am still figuring out a few things so your video helped. A couple items I haven't tested yet are the low speed cruise control where the truck automatically comes to a complete stop and the trailer back up system.

Nice truck, great review. It’ll be my next truck.

I am glad to hear that it seems Toyota has worked fixes into the assembly process to address the cabin wind noise issues. I have a 1794 built in January 2022. There are wind noise issues with the front driver door seal and the RR door seal, and a roof liner above the front passenger near the visor that makes a snapping noise occasionally due to bad adhesive. I registered these issues during my 10k service recently. The dealer basically treated the door seals which helped somewhat, but it is not a long-term solution. I am hoping there will be a TSB soon that may lead to better parts. If not, I will have Toyota replace them all before the 3/36 warranty is up. Outside of those issues, it's a fairly quiet truck with a nice ride. I was getting 18.5 to 19.5 MPG mixed driving before the winter blended gas late last fall. Now I get about 17.5 MPG mixed. Straight highway, full tank, I still get close to 22 MPG with 3 passengers and 800 lbs of bed cargo.

Thanks for the review. Hoping these videos will help with my decision to purchase. FYI: Tire height is the Aspect Ratio not the first number on the tire. The higher the fist number, the wider the tire, the second is the sidewall height and third, the rim size. The bigger the AR (65 vs 55), the greater difference in your MPH also.

Thanks for the review. One minor thing - the "Hold" feature uses the regular brakes as if you were pressing your foot down on the brake pedal, not the parking brake which takes a second to engage and disengage.

Very informative - thank you

Good review. Thanks

I have the same truck with the air ride. I have the same bottoming out issue. Can you do a short video on the adjustment feature?? Thank you. Love the video b

I have a 2023 SR5. Sounds like the back window rattles whenever it’s completely rolled down. And also when I stick it to the floor, it shows my tailgate is open lol. Other than that, it’s a solid truck. Getting an oil change this weekend and will bring it up to the dealership.

Key Fob Remote start still works on my 2020 TRD Sport Premium DC,2 1/2 years later.

Bought a 2023 TRD PRO, in Dec. Absolutely love it. It's all black. Great looking truck. The grill makes the truck look menacing. Enjoy the twin turbos and the sound coming out of the exhaust. The Infotainment screen is large. I feel like I am getting a tan. Toggle through the rearview camera. There is a camera view that provides a clear view of who's behind you. I'll be towing an Airstream, this summer. Does anyone see a difference between using 87 octane gas vs using 92? Thanks!

14:40... I would take those wheels and put a 275 65 20 winter tire on them and get a set of the TRD PRO wheels and put a mild A/T tire on them.

Really enjoy your reviews. Are you sure about the alternate size tire size? 275 60 r20

My limited comes in next week, looking forward to it. Which Amazon running boards did you go with?

Got a 23 SR5 TRD off-road and no active air dam.

Nice review. How is the Auto Start Stop? a quick video on it would be helpful.

I believe after 3 years took away my RAV4 remote start from my FOB, after 12 months 22’ Tundra still works. So wrong Toyota to deactivate my FOB.

I watched part 1 also, and you do a fantastic job. I bought a 23 Hybrid used with 1500 mi. Drove it 5 hours home from the dealer. No rattles, no issues. Seat was extremely comfortable. I agree with what you're saying. One thing I did notice...just filled up the truck and the dash with a full tank, only reads 374 mi range. I noticed that at the dealer...full tank, 360-ish range. My truck only, maybe?

I have a fully loaded 23 limited trd offroad. It does not have the active air dam. I was told no offroads or pros get that

czan you show the running boards on amazon you bought, thanks

Is the entire bed composite such as the rear fenders or just the bed interior?

The stop control should be for hill assist

I’m one of the ones having some build quality issues really disappointed. My 2023 sr5 with a tss package as loose trimming on the outside and is experiencing bad vibration on the door panels when playing music

As far as towing! JB reviews found that tundra wasn’t rated for towing or recommend? It was in the 2023 tundra manual! I’m sure each one is different depending on hybrids or not?

Good review. Can you explain why your payload is only 1400 lbs, when the advertised max payload is 1740 lbs for the 2023 Limited 4x4 CrewMax 5.5 ft bed? Does your truck actually have over 300 lbs. worth of extra equipment that reduced your payload number? Most of us know that payload, not max towing capacity, is the limiting factor when towing. Thanks

Good afternoon sir I just looked at your video, my question is Loring the vehicle 2 to 3 inches would that be a good thing for it?

Great review - Such a bad-a truck!

Would you buy the air ride suspension again now that you have some miles driving it? There’s so much noise about them. I’ve had master technicians on payroll tell me don’t touch them. They’re expensive to repair. They don’t last, Toyota has tried these several times and can’t get them correct? What is your opinion.

I have the exact same truck, do you have break noise when reversing on first start up …

I’m looking to probably trade in my GMC Sierra 1500 SLT for a Tundra (Possibly Limited) what color is yours? And does it come in the Mesquite Brown color. Thanks!

You will always get worse gas mileage in the winter due to the winter blend gas. I drop down to 13mpg in the city in my 18 F150. Would like to get a tundra platinum or possibly wait for a second year Tacoma limited I force max.

that engine makes more power and torque if you didn't get that SR version, but if you did then you get penalized 50 hp and 100 lbft of torque for being cheap

Whats your typical mpg without towing a trailer and with towing ..

can the lane assist be turned off? One video I saw made it seem like it cant.

Thanks for the payload.

Are they actually done with column shifter or can I order a truck with 1 built in

Is the back seat comfortable enough for kids / long traveling?

Do you have to be stationary to go from 2HI to 4HI ?

Please do a video on the tundra it’s been 3 months since your last post

What do you do for a living to afford this truck?! I’m looking at getting one and it’s expensive!

so let me just say that if Toyota removed your remote start feature on the key fob itself, they'd be alienating many owners, because this is a feature that literally every carmaker offers on the key fob permanently , I have GM OnStar, and the app is a pay service, the fob is built in, it must be the same with Toyota, i pay for sat radio, onstar wifi, and emergency collision response all in one package for $ 33.00 a month, not too bad.

Do you tundra have a issue wind noise

A 275mm W-I-D-E tire may require a 9" wide wheel.

Great truck untill u go to the dealer and it's 10,000 over msrp

My 2024 tundra hybrid Bad wind noise from doors Very noisy drivers side mirror Steering wheel stitching coming apart Steering wheel plastic not flush Drivers seat auto back and forward failing On and on Only 1000 kilometres on the truck

remember when you get different tire sizes it will effect your speed and your fuel and towing power.

A great video and I thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have a 2022 Toyota Tundra 1794 that I love and your going over many of the features is very helpful, especially the slider adjustment. I was having a problem keeping my truck from bottoming out and the Toyota dealer made an adjustment that helped. I think it could use a little more.
