Pretty interesting to see the toll that high-speed offroading takes on a truck. One day of it, and you need a new alignment, and that Tundra's tires were chunking too.
I've got about 30k on my toyos, so theyre definitely worn down. For what I put them through they have lasted a really long time actually, but yeah its time for new tires
@fullmag_tundra 30k is pretty impressive then! In your experience is there anything to really keep an eye out for when doing slightly higher speed stuff?
@@keon8625 thanks! I’m surprised myself tbh lol but a few tips I’ve learned running these down, you gotta rotate them way sooner and more often. Like every 3k miles. When you’re going fast, you’re in 2WD most of the time and usually traction off so you’re spinning all over the place which wears them down significantly. So doing tire rotations more often will only help them last longer. I was doing every 5k but this new set I will start doing 3k instead. Also, your traditional off road air pressures of 15-20 psi won’t cut it out high speed stuff. Depending on how much sidewall you have, if you’re too low you’ll start to hit your actual wheel on stuff and increase risk of bending a wheel rim and leaking air or get a flat. Stay within 25-28 psi and should be good, which means your suspension has really got to be good to keep up and not rattle you to the death lol
Another response to your alignment comment too, it’s very true. Stock alignments don’t last long prerunning, I had 5 alignments done last year because they kept coming out. I recently just installed cam tab gussets from total chaos on my truck that helps strengthen that area and helps keep the alignment better. I spent the whole previous day before Jon came and did all of that stuff all day, and then did it again the next day. Alignment didn’t change one bit haha. Well worth the cost of parts and labor
We appreciate you demoin' that was super awesome to see a great bunch of trucks duking it out in the desert! of course I will have to take my stealth SR and show you up ;) lol jk! keep the good times rollin'!
Great news for me today! My Toyota dealership in Fort Myers finally received the all new Toyota Tacoma. And I test drove the Toyota Tacoma sport. It dries so smooth and handle so well. I was grinning from ear to ear when the salesman told me to gun it. That made my day, and it pushes me to wanna buy a new Tacoma. But I’m still going to wait a few more years to be on a safe side. I was also told by the salesman that they fix the turbo problem in the tundra so the Tacoma shouldn’t have that issue.
FullMgM has a sick build. Also, got to test drive a 4th gen exact same spec as yours next to a 3rd gen tundra. I was surprised how much more responsive the taco felt than the 3.4 in the Tundra. I guess it builds boost much faster. But definitely doesnt hit the same peak when the tundra is in boost I'm so sold on the 4thgen Taco now. These videos are making it hard to hold on to my 3rd gen XD
i no, this wasn't the point of your video but being that you're in California and live in Florida how is the climate controls in the new Tacoma? I've always found them weak in the second and third GEN as far as the AC with a darker color did they fix that and they fix the third GEN leaking into the passenger side foot? Well my 19 when it's humid out leaks pretty aggressively in the cab.
Dear John I know for fact you have all the answers for my question, and here are my questions? I am from the Middle East to be more specific from the gulf countries, the Land Cruiser we are going to have is Lc250 with two engines 2.8 turbo diesel and 2.4 turbo petrol, do you think the 2.4 engine has enough power to handle the heavy weight of the LC250 ? What is the acceptable acceleration rate from 0 to 60 for SUV?
The Tacoma came in midweek for me. That underground color is neat. It’s growing on me. And one odd crazy annoying little stupid thing thats driving me bonkers is that one light in the rear bumper for the license plate. One on the right, but not on the left. Really!!!!!???? Now, it’s all I look at. Blah!
@@TRDJon that's quite a worrying thought about the longevity of the truck and definitely doesn't sound like Toyota reliance that we all know, I wonder if the fox shocks on the pro will fare any better
Even Full Mag with his king shocks was feeling shock fatigue, It's a thing for most suspension set ups when you are going forever and the oil gets hot.
@@Cringer101not really a worry at all. It’s stock. They’re not expecting every customer, majority of customers rather, to be putting their vehicles through this. Even my king 2.5 got hot to the touch at the end. Completely normal and expected.
For each rotation the hub and axle does, the 35s covers more ground vs the 34. The only negative for bigger tires is off the line but once it gets going it gets going and continues to keep going
Dude, by now you should know a little about YT and ticktock. Put of content, people watch/comment, do it and be good at it. Money flows in, just like whatever skill set you and I got. Making money is easy, be good at what you do is the hard part.
@@TRDJonI was making that reference to everyone there not just you. If it’s not a young man’s game then why does it feel like 90% of the people who drive their trucks like they’re SXS’s are in their 20’s-30’s then? The 10% that are in their 40s and 50s act like they’re in their 20s and 30s. If you had seriously damaged your truck I doubt you’d recoup that money in YT revenue plus your truck would be down for future content. At the end of the day, you all certainly can do whatever you want. I once did and I moved on from stupid stuff.
I don't see how enjoy time with friends and finding the limits of an engineered machine is stupid though. Toyota wants enthusiasts to enjoy their cars, not just drive them to the grocery store.
