Thanks for your review. I owned a 2021 Toyota Tundra Limited sold for a nice profit a year later. I bought a 2024 Toyota Tundra SR5 Crewmax three months ago and hope my gas mileage improves. I do love the engine. Nice surge in power and nice cruising speed. I am a fan of the spacious and comfortable interior. I have the blueprint color and added some black Regina alpha midnight wheels, go rhino running boards and a Leer quad fold tonneau cover. I wish the front and rear bumpers were made of stronger materials. I love my Toyota! I am 85 years old so this could be my last truck. I am hopeful I can buy a 1794 in three years. God bless.
Just bought a 2012 tundra 5.7 v8 crew max. Has a lift kit with aftermarket rims. Get about 10.4 mpg. 140k miles. Runs like brand new. Don't care about the gas mileage as much. I always wanted a dependable truck with no issues. That's what I got 🤙 wish they stuck with the v8 engines for the newer models. It's unfortunate.
I've got a 23 Tundra 1794 4x4. I'm getting 18 in city. 22 on highway. I literally just pulled a 3 horse slant bumper pull back to Texas from Tennessee. I was kinda on the line with how it would pull. The trlr was fully loaded too. We ran threw the mountains running 70 plus with absolutely no problem! Fuel mileage was around 10 mpg. On the flat highway, around 13 to 14mpg. This trk pulled better and harder than any 3/4 ton trks I've ever owned. Super satisfied! I do have air bags from factory. The ride was smooth as silk. It definitely out pulled my 18 Tundra hands down. Don't be scared of these trks. The quality is still Toyota. We can just get there a lot quicker. And definitely in style.
Correct look at your dip stick. I stick with Toyota oil filter. I don't tow, but I run on 87 on fuel now and getting 24mpg on HW 17 to 19mpg on normal driving in city. I don't floor my gas peddle. I brought my 23 SR5 TRD 4x4 Crew MAX in May 2023 (2mile on speedometer) and my milage now is 17k. Did my first Oil change at 1200k miles. Oil change done at every 3.5k or 5k depend on my long distance driving. Oct 2023 drove from TX to Yellow Stone National Park then near Jackson Hole and to Idaho City. After Idaho City straight down to Moab and Arches National Park without a hiccup. My next trip is to drive to Alaska with my Tundra June 2024.
First time viewer here...Great review and glad to hear no probs minus the disappointing milage. Love my 2024 Tundra coming from a 5.4L F-150. More power/torque, quieter, better fuel economy, and better trans (my Ford tranny went south at 120K:( Thanks for adding the scriptures and God Bless!
@@joearnold1843 sure, I bought a 2022 Toyota Tacoma Trd off-road and after 20,000 miles I couldn’t stand it. What an absolute dog and the transmission was absolutely garbage.
@@DUNEATV, OH, I see, you like to compare apples to oranges, and stand behind your Mexican made truck. Comparing a Tacoma to a Tundra is a joke at best!!! Nevermind how many 700,000 -1,000,000+ miles Tundra's and still running on the road today. All my Tundra's, (4), were designed and built in San Antonio, TX, as well as my RAV4 built in KY, and my Hyundai Sante Fe built in AL. The American big 3 are simply foreign built pieces of crap sporting the emblems of old. I stopped buying them when they stopped building and sourcing parts from Mexico.
Ford and GMC fanboy here and just ran across your channel. I really enjoyed watching your video and it was very informative. Thanks very much for sharing and hope you have a great day 👍
Be careful with the washable air filter. I had one for years and then I accidently put to much oil on the the filter after I cleaned it. The oil got sucked in the the intake system and the throttle got stuck wide open. After this, I went back to the paper filter.
I have always owned tundras. And I'm skeptical If these new engines can last as long as 5.7 My current tundra is a 2015 that I bought new and I'm currently sitting at 382000 miles on it 0 issues. My last tundra I put on 304000 miles again 0 issues. I'm hoping these new engines can at least last that long. I'm waiting to see the long javity on these before I. Potentially buy one
You should have no problem Getting what I've gotten so far And more Take care of them keep up on the maintenance and Preventive maintenance Should last.
Same here I jave a 2008 5.7 tundra work truck pulls a 6 thousand pound trailer every day and im at 482k miles and only thing I have repaired is thr right front wheel bearing and 2 o2 sensors. Love it and I want the new Interior but I'm unsure about this new motor
The engine should be ok for the same mileage, although its possible for premature wear. Doubt the turbo/ wastegate/ manifold combo will last 200k, and it will probably be 3-5k installed.
These turbo V6’s will require more maintenance. Can probably go 200-300K miles but will require more maintenance - possibly 2-3X. Just being realistic.
We had a 2014 Forester manual ordered from Japan for the Midwest market and it started eating oil at 10/12k miles. Sold that thing off at an Acura dealership for a Toyota 4Runner and drove 235k miles trouble free. Proofs in that pudding.
15 mpg😮!!! I have a 2015 Tundra w/ the 5.7 and I get 13-14 mpg in city. I’m not a fan of the new V6 from Toyota and one of the biggest selling points Toyota made was mpg. Hopefully the EPA allows manufacturers to bring back the V8 because this new V6 isn’t as advertised. The new Land Cruiser also has this same V6 engine and it’s the same/close to same mpg as the Tundra.
16k miles on mine. I avg 16.2 mpg on mine. Slightly wider AT tires, plus cat cover. Stock suspension set up. Happy to report zero issues with new TTV6. Coming from 2, 2nd Gen 5.7's, this new TTV6 is much more snappy and happier at highway speeds. Very happy with it so far. I can live with the mpg. JUST GIVE ME TOW HOOKS!! 😅
The market has mislead people with the idea that V6 Turbo engines will get better gas mileage. The smaller displacement is not for fuel economy its for emissions.
Use PREMIUM GAS when towing/hauling. The full HP and Torque numbers are tested with Premium gas as per owners manual. Same thing on the 5.7 V8. I’m getting between 17-23 mpg on my 5.7 V8 with Premium gas. I drive around 110 miles a day between 35-55 mph speed limit roads. Try it for 3-4 full tanks until it adjusts. If not, go back to regular.
I'm a '23 Tundra TRD Pro owner and loving it. You mentioned the Air filters in this and the oil change video... any possibilities for a video on washing & "re-oiling" the filters that are capable of doing so? I believe mine has the TRD air filter which evidently is washable. Thanks for everything you're doing.
With oiled air filters you need to be sure you don't over oil them. Mass air flow sensors start having issues when they get coated in excess air filter oil.
Thanks for watching! If I go with a re-usable filter I can def show the washing/ oiling process. I am a bit skeptical though.. I'd like to know more about aftermarket "dry" filters..
About the MPG, I think that is a good mileage and many people that I know seem to get a similar gas mileage. This is a heavy truck and the only way you can get the advertised or close to the advertised gas mileage is if you feather the gas pedal. It is a heavy truck. They put overbuilt parts, so it will still last more than the 1/2 ton trucks from the Big3. I bet if I had the same gear ratio in the back and the 10 speed tranny on my 21 Tundra, I would get the same mileage as your truck. You basically are getting the 10% better economy than I get mainly because of the 10 speed tranny.
2022 Tundra TSS Offroad 33,000 miles zero problems other than the recalls. 5000 mile oil change intervals. My mileage in town driving reads 18.6mpg, best I have done on the highway is 23.2
Amen. God bless you good bro. Thank you for this review. I just purchased a 2024 Tundra 1794 version. Owning a 2020 Ford Limited, the comparisons are amazing.
I daily a Corolla cross for the mpg and reliability. It calls for 0-16 and 10,000 mile intervals. I’m at about 9000 miles and on the 4th oil change after sending the factory fill oil out for an a analysis at 600 miles. Let’s just say nobody should be going 10,000 especially on a brand new motor. The amount of silica and wear metals were crazy until it got past 6000 miles. I’m gonna send the current stuff out when I change it at 10,000 miles or 4000 on the oil and I’m hoping to see the metals down to acceptable levels.
Loving my 2022. When I go on road trips, I have always added Lucas Fuel Treatment. The bottle more than pays for itself at today's gas prices always adding a minimum of 1mpg, but often much more. I also resist the use of my right foot and use the very handy radar cruise to assist my mileage. I would be interested in seeing if a reusable filter adds MPG's or other performance. I know some manufacturers have frowned on their usage for such issues as mass flow air sensor probs. I admit to using my truck 99.8% of the time in ECO mode, but it still is quite snappy if I need it to be.
"Heavy on the throttle", a heavy load, stop and go driving, and lots of 4WD; why would you expect the MPG's to be as good as average, when the mpg tests are done on dynos?
@Anonymous-sy2nh Still no issues with any of our twin turbo tundra! 🤞 I just posted another video with over 50k miles and still running great. No rattles, noises, etc. I will keep posting updates.. good, bad or ugly ! Please subscribe if interested. God bless
LOVE the channel and the scripture! 2023 Tundra Limited owner, my only issue is the stupid plastic seat trim panel that houses the power controls. It's cracking because the seat isn't stiff enough to handle getting into and out of the truck. I wish they had designed that better, but otherwise loving the truck. I get 22.2 mpg avg highway, but it's mostly open roads for me.
18.3 mpg on my 2023 hybrid tundra since I got it last april. It has done a trailer (4500 lbs ) trip to Vyoming from Washington state. No issues so far enjoy driving it. I am just disturbed with the recalls and how slow Toyota is to respond them.
I got 200k on my AFE Dry filter Get a DRY one. For your work trucks use a blower/AC and back to work. No washing necessary unless you get them muddy and they handle Pressure washer fine! just be gentle! Those engine bays look very easy to clean! Sounds like shorter oil changes are the right choice! Keep trucking. Glad your video popped up. These trucks are the same price as 4Gen tacomas coming up. I lean on these now
Washable filters suck. They don’t filter as good, they are more expensive, you gotta wait for them to dry, and they get oil on the MAF making it read wrong and your truck run incorrectly.
I agree. I've run both K&N and S&B. I went to two filters so I could 11:18 avoid the cleaning, drying, oiling cycle wait. Very easy to over oil. I clean the paper filters by vacuuming and blowing toward the air intake side then replace when they aren't cleaning well. Avoid silicates in the engine and confirm with oil analysis. My 22 Tundra has easy to service intake boxes which encourages filter access/cleaning.
I live in the mountains of WV, not as impressive as Colorado but I'm averaging 18.2 city and up to 24 on the highway unladened. I'm leasing it currently and on the fence on whether on not I'll buy it when the lease is up.
That’s not bad mpg compared to my 2020 Tacoma TRD Off-road. I get 12-13 mpg around town on a stock truck with an RSI SmartCap on the back. I can get 20 on the highway. At least the Tundra has enough power. I can’t say that for my Tacoma.
Thanks for the video. The air filters are smaller - cost if roughly half of the old thick ones. Cost is close to the 5.7. I'd recommend sticking with stock.
Apparently there is a design flaw with the main bearing setup in our motors and all will inevitably see catastrophic failure by 100k. Hope it isn’t true. Not pattern to when it happens. Some report 10k. Miles some 55k miles. But all comes out to the same main bearing being burned out. Some people also have reported it fixed, others had said it’s happening in the 2024s.
I had a 2020 tundra 5.7 had a 2.5 lift with 35s and a heavy off-road bumper from c4 ,so I’m sure aerodynamics were crap after that but I got 12mpg. Anyway anybody running 35s with a small lift what mpg are you getting on the new tundra
If you guys are only getting 50k out of brakes and that bad of mileage it’s the driver.. my 5th gen 4 runner is at 40k miles and still has 75% brake life remaining.
I agree to an extent. If the truck has to work, it is usually hard to get long life out of components and good fuel economy. I get better than sticker fuel economy on my 4runner, but my tundra does get worked towing, hauling, and off-road work. I do, however, know people that complain about fuel economy and then when I ride with them😬.
The 3.5 TT V6 came out in 2017 with the new flagship Lexus LS500. The LS400 is what started the Lexus brand with the V8 so I feel they definitely trust the reliability to continue to make Toyota look good.
I would suggest not going with the oiled K&N style. For the reasons others mention as I too have heard evidence of dirt ingestion and contaminating Mass Airflow sensors or down stream emissions. Next time I go aftermarket I was thinking looking into the washable dry filters looking at the micron rating of them.
The trans is slightly 'clunky' before it warms up, but that is true of most automatics in my experience. The fluid needs to get up to operating temperature to work silky smooth
I have BF Goodrich KO2 tires (kinda heavy tires) on my 2024 tundra limited, I’m like 70% city driving and I average 16mpg. Not impressed but it’s definitely a little better than the v8
I hear ya on the fuel mileage, I think some of the factors are the carbon emissions, it may not be a fuel economy winner, but it should run a lot cleaner compared to the older V8! I got a 2023 SR 4x4 with about 1800 miles on it! only issues I am going to report is a rattle on my dash with some music playing and a whistling blower motor!
Thanks for sharing !! Noisy blower motors have been a problem on many toyotas throught the years. It's a small thing, but you think they could have sorted it out by now 🤷♂️
Appreciate the scripture, follower of Jesus as well, I have a 18 Tundra with 5.7, average about 15.5, at this point I can’t justify buying a new tundra with smaller engine, not to mention the looks of the new Tundra.
I would never use a KN product. Watch project farms air filter video. They were the worst for allowing large particles into the engine! I dont know about you but I want the sandpaper kept out!
I test drove both and no noticeable Between the two I went with the non hybrid ..love it and have storage under rear seats and no heat from batteries or smell interior hybrid batteries
Go with the non-hybrid if there's any question. The hybrid might be better at starting very heavy loads moving, but the TTV6 by itself is designed to be a high torque at lower rpm engine and has plenty of power. Fuel mileage is about the same between the two. I got the hybrid and the torque is awesome, but possibly not worth the added complexity of the hybrid system. I've had no issue with "battery pack" smell in the cabin and no issue with waste heat.....don't even know it's there (aside from lost storage space).
Only time (miles) will tell !! I am a big fan of the Toyota 4.7 V-8s, VERY reliable, many documented at over 1M miles. I also really like the toyota 3.4 V-6 found in the older tacomas and 4 runners. EXTREMELY reliable and a good balance between power and fuel mileage. My personal prediction is that these new 3.5 twin turbo engines will NOT last as long.. unfortunately. Turbos are great for making power, but it does come at a cost. More cylinder head pressure puts a strain on things and they heat up the engine oil a lot more. This in combination with the excessive emissions systems that manufacturers are forced to place on new engines will likely affect the longevity of this engine. I hope I'm wrong !! ..but I guess we'll find out in a few years time.
After break in the Tundras get 20-25 mpg on the highway. The best mpg in these is 75-80 mph because of the tall gearing. If you drive slow mpgs go into the toilet.
That's what we're here to find out! So far this one has 40k Miles of hard work with no major issues. I imagine this truck has some of the highest mileage of any 2023, so I will continue to report our findings!
Gets the same mileage as the 5.7. the car companies are in bed with the EPA to get crap turbos in everything. They have officially switched to parts companies like Chrysler Jeep Dodge ram. Good luck with it.
Own a 2023 tundra limited Trd lunar rock ..motor and tranmission amzing …lots of cheap plastics and poor fit and finish …after only 5000km rear exterior window rubber trim shrinks and comes off … the black piano finish Center console scratchs so easy it will look terrible only after a couple of weeks …the inner front inner wheel wells are made of a sort of cloth like material that is terrible to clean grass and mud off of …I would take a hard pass on buying one so many cheap fitting things on it ..if you really look close enough you will see them …buyer beware
You're right I tried one out I end up buying a Nissan Titan way better way better built then these new Toyotas I can tell you that I tried and I touched everything I felt everything and I was like what does this feel cheap on the Toyota and it's 20 thousand more
god I hate scumbags who always feel the need to shove religion in my face. Like I just want to watch the video in it's entirety without someone forcing a belief down my throat without my consent
