I've had my 2022 Tundra for over 2 years now. It has over 50k miles, 3,000 or so towing. Many miles of light to moderate off-roading. I've had no issues at all so far. My only complaint would be cabin noise at highway speeds, and some creaking on the interior parts when pushing on them.

I love my new tundra. Better than the competition in the half ton market!! I'd put my tundra up against any of the "big 3". Without hesitation

@@nathanfidler2009 Glad you like it, I hope it continues to be a good truck for you.

Toyota will either fix this issue or the Tundra will eventually lose sales like the Nissan Titan and eventually become discontinued via lack of sales.

Yeah, I’m Toyota fanboy as well. I’m keeping my old Toyotas lol

Same, Toyota guy here. They are now way to complicated. The Nissan Frontier gets the same gas mileage and have a naturally aspirated V6!!! FOR LESS. WITH TWICE THE LENGTH OF WARRANTY.

My wife wants a new Tacoma. I'm seriously considering going with the Frontier while we can still get a V6, or buying a used V6 Tacoma.

I miss my 2004 Tacoma but frame rotted out. Couldn’t justify patching it. Opted for a used 2021 tundra trail edition with 25000 miles a few months ago that was not cheap (but affordable compared to new Toyota trucks) but have way more faith in that v8 than this new era of toyota. Great advice at end of video and I agree.

It's time to abandon the concept of brand loyalty. No company cares about us the people, Toyota is just another corp that wants to make profit off of you and comply with governments/global org policies. My 2020 Camry had serious rattles and paint/rust issues from day one, serious cost cuts everywhere. I'm also going to stick to my 2021 Tundra until it dies, not going to touch their new product lines.

This is 100000% on point and not enough people are saying it. Reliable vehicles actually have a smaller carbon footprint too.

The "government" made Toyota build an engine with 400 HP/Torque? And the biggest complaint with the previous engine was fuel mileage.

@@jimsomerville3924they don’t care about the mpg, because obviously, and to your point,the new engines don’t get any better gas mileage. It’s the emissions the government “cares” about. They’d rather put a smaller displacement engine with a turbo than have a naturally aspirated larger engine.

Keep up the good work Proho

@@douglowry7382 If the government cared about the environment, we would have small turbo diesels like all of Europe is using. If we burn less fuel, they get less taxes. The govt is incentivized to keep us buying vehicles that get bad mpg.

He’s always right because he does the shotgun technique. He can’t be wrong if he says EVERYTHING.

​@@davidthomas2585 why i dont quote him

Scotty has EXPERIENCE. As do I. He and I are about the same age. Obviously he is in the car repair business main stream whereas I am a little less directly but do a lot with cars, light and heavy trucks. Scotty is right. Turbos suck (yea I know they actually blow but that is beside the point) People do not know how to care for a turbo engine. When you floor it and red line as most male and some female Dilberts do at every red light the engine cannot take it. However if you unpack this further you see these are people beyond a certain age that drive the truck like sane people (not like Mario Andretti no disrespect meant) and they are still failing. Very strong forensic evidence the engine is a poor design, weak and destine to fail! A PRODUCTION engine with an ALUMINUM block (remember production for weight and cost controls) is made to mass produce. Turbos in the past (60's maybe) were in exotic cars with engines designed, cast, and built up to take high revs (in excess of 8K) extreme boost and hard revving under boost. This is a TOYOTA for the Lord's sake. NOT A FERRARI I mean when did you last see a 2.5 million dollar Ferrari towing a boat! Exactly so either lower people's expectations for the Toyota or build a super car engine for it. Spun bearings fundamentally points toward a WEAK BLOCK under too much pressure. OK production mass produced block, possibly weak bottom end and DUAL FREEKIN TURBOS is a recipe for spun bearings. Anybody with half sense and one eye should understand. If you glibly blow Scotty and even I off you will be marooned by the road with 10K~ miles and spun bearings.. Face it fan boys this engine is weak! WEAK WEAK WEAK. Cast iron block, heavy webs for the bearings large webs, 4 bolt mains and a 10 quart oil pan with a massive oil cooler maybe. But Aluminum block making all this HP and raging turbos the truck cannot survive. Physics as I told many people even before this truck started flowing out of the plants are against it. Don't believe us just watch history has a way exonerating prophets like Scotty and if I may humbly say myself.

Scotty Kilmer is a shill, I'm amazed he hasn't gone the way of Wranglerstar. For the record spun bearings are caused by incorrect crank fitment or oil starvation. Boost has nothing to do with it.

Have you ever had to pay for gas in one of those engines? Do you have any idea how bad they are? I had the 4.7 and that thing was god-awful.

Exactly.

I couldn’t agree more! I have a 2008 Tundra DC 4X4 with the 5.7L V8. I purchased it brand new in September 2008 with just 33 miles on the odometer. As of today (May 14, 2024) my truck has 133,644 trouble free miles. I only use Amsoil Signature 100% synthetic oil, which I change every 7500 miles, and I use Amsoil fluids (gear oil) for front/rear differential and transfer case. I love having an actual key, no silly looking iPad stuck to the dash, and 381 horses to get me the heck outta dodge! I only average 16.2 mpg (using cruise control on an old US highway, which is what I normally drive on) but I’ll take 16.2 and my 5.7’s reliability over a push button start, iPad stuck to the dash turbo POS that won’t last 15 years!

Tru dat

If you hate money, buy a truck, period.

Yep, doesn't matter the brand. And if you hate money even more, add more features to break! I was a bit disappointed when I bought my truck that it didn't have LED lights, but I'll take a $20 or less bulb replacement over mandatory "replace the whole assembly" for $500+ because some water got in... Something that happens with vehicles, they are in nasty environments. Adding more tech just makes them more failure prone and more difficult to repair.

@@churchofmarcus My 2005 Toyota Tundra cost me $13,000 in 2014 with 95K miles on it. 10 years later and it's cost me nothing but a few preventative maintenance items to keep running like new. Best truck ever.

Trucks are insanely expensive to own, drive and maintain, period. It's these grown men who envy buy a large, expensive truck just as a commuter because they see other guys driving them. With fads like trucks, the modern American man is just like a woman.

Scotty is a flip flipper. He does anything for clicks.

Scotty Kilmer has a 70iq but he is correct this time.

The used 5.7L are starting to hold value better than the new 2022+...it's interesting.

Same here, I bought a 2019 limited 4x4 and the price was almost the same as a Tacoma because everyone was worried about the price of gas. $45k with 0%, I made last payment a few months ago. 90k miles and not one problem. I hope I can make this truck last a long time, those kinds of deals are long gone, and I'll never be able to afford another truck, any make. It doesn't feel outdated to me, heated seats and led headlights, best truck I have ever owned.

I had 2 of the 5.7 and they were incredible motors

I love my 2019 Tundra TRD Sport DC in mag grey. I will keep it for a very long time.

Exactly. The people who complain about the Toyota engines being outdated are not Toyota customers in the first place. Loyal Toyota customers didn't care, we wanted reliability. My 5.7L V8 Tundra has 300k on it.

Don’t they test these trucks in the field before they make them? I hope they fix.

GM has used the consumer as a test bed for generations. Ford tested the ecoboost in the baja 1000 after running that engine on a dyno for 100k miles, testing at full GCWR with trailer at speed at nascar track for 24 hours stopping only for tires and gas. And that was after years of engineering work

@@workingcountry1776 Took the words right out of my mouth. Toyota, in my eyes, fired the QC department and threw the responsibility of fixing it as they go onto the consumer. Then only warranty 20%, leaving the rest of its base disgruntled and unwilling to ever buy Toyota again.

Damn, that's a lot of trucks. I think you guys are saving money by maintaining them. It's so tempting for a fleet to bump oil changes up past 5k to reduce costs, or (yuck) follow the maintenance minder thing that tells you to change it at 8k+)

I know you use that oil for better fuel economy...but a thicker oil will make your trucks last longer

@@fortheloveofnoise9298 I run 5w20 in the winter and 5w30 in the summer here in Utah. That was a recommendation from a local mechanic, said the oil pumps starts to weaken with higher miles. 🤷‍♂️

Coyote Motors are rock solid too. On par with 5.7 Tundras

I like the coyote but I absolutely love my 3.5 eb. 5k full synthetic oil changes (less in the summer as I pull a camper every weekend) and I've had none of the infamous ecoboost problems. Newer turbo motors don't hold up under long oil change intervals no matter what the manufacturer says. Wish it sounded better but other than that it's fantastic. I'd also rather pull a trailer with it than the v8s. Even the 6.2. It pulls great with all the low end torque. There are plenty of 3.5s out there with 250k or more when they are maintained well.

If you ever feel like connecting let me know. I'd keep your identity safe. I really want to talk to techs like you to figure out how prevalent this is across the country. My guess is the public only gets to see 15% or so of what goes on behind those doors, and what you are saying aligns with that. I'm at cars@thecarguyonline.com if you want to connect :).

My 2022 Tundra has had 3 recalls. I wasn't affected by the tonneau cover one. 1) The electronic parking break 2) fuel line fire hazard 3) lunging forward when shifting to neutral. My truck has over 50k miles and I'm very pleased so far. The only thing you'll hear me complaining about it cabin noise at highway speeds.

I did those three recalls / campaigns on a '23 tundra on Friday. For these things I understand the annoyance. There is , however no updated software for main bearing failure. Change your engine oil at short intervals and say a prayer. ​@@MountainManBran

And are you repairing them with the same parts that failed or upgraded parts that will last

That’s so depressing

That's because people care less and less about the longevity of everything being manufactured today. The society's rotting has been accelerating on all levels, from car mechanics to elected presidents.

Maybe if we put a mask on our trucks and give it a vaccine the trucks will be healthy. Oh crap, my truck now has myocarditis

Something happened since Covid. That thing is Biden.

You are very correct! I worked in auto parts for the past 15 years. (Napa if anyone wants to know), and during and after COVID, quality is pathetic. Supply chain, worker shortage, people paid to stay home, whatever excuse was given, quality plummeted and has not rebounded. Parts we sold that never had issues, were coming in missing pieces, defective, or boxed entirely incorrectly. We even received oil filters with no gaskets and some without even having threads cut in them. It was unreal the crap we saw. Like I said, I had 15 years and from 2019-2023, I saw more problems, and quality issues than in all the rest of the years combined. I switched careers mid '23 and from talking to my old coworkers, they're still seeing issues. I'm afraid quality is gone for good.

What happened was corporations found out they could reduce quality while increasing prices and people will still buy.

Oil consumption issues, is it because of the low friction position rings? I have a 2.4 Sonata runs great burns 2/3 was every 1k. But just did the B12 Piston soak. And it seems promising as after 500 miles I don’t see much change in oil level.

Amen brotha!

@@marcochavanne yeah but they weren’t mad. they just said “well, we bought one of the first batches so things like that happen i guess”…paraphrasing ofc.

Modern turbo engines are just about as reliable as N/A engines when properly cared for. A lot of people don't know how to properly drive turbo engines and do nonsense like lug it under stress, go way over the oil change interval, etc. My 2020 civic si's puny lil 1.5 turbo is coming up on 80k miles and the engine still looks/functions like new because it's actually maintained. One thing that's true and kinda sucks is that we're no longer able to neglect maintance like past NA engines but I'll take that trade-off for more torque and better gas mileage.

80k is a joke for a barely broken engine...the 1.5 is a high strung engine and initial ones had oil dilution which is said to have been fixed but you won't know until you send it to the lab for analysis. Not saying they are grenades but they won't last as long as an NA even with diligent maintenance.

@sporkybutterz completely incorrect. it's actually not high strung at all, very low compression and low boost from factory but the crazy part is how many people are running ktuners pushing over 22lbs of boost and regularly hitting over 150k with zero issues aside from the weak stock clutch. Also the oil dilution problem is largely a thing of the past and was only an issue in cooler areas. Back to my main point, although the new tundra engine does seem to have issues, the new tacoma engine is been in use for about a decade now in lexus models with zero issues. If we were talking about a Chrysler, Ford or bmw product, I'd say you're right to worry but the Japanese turbos are largely solid as evidence shows.

@@sporkybutterz you are right- he should be speaking after 500,000 on his 1.5 L engine

Toyota is a trillion dollar company. Something. Probably the largest production in the world. They had record profits this past year. They will be fine.

Well said, Sir!!!

@@itsallminor6133 I don’t think you understood. Yes they will continue to make money. They’ll just be doing it the same way Ford, Ram, and Chevy do. Producing flashy bs that breaks within a few years. The Old Kaizen philosophy Toyota built their trucks with is dead. It’s no longer about being reliable or affordable. That’s taken a distant back seat to bells and other shiny bs. And that’s exactly what the American market begged them to do. Now everybody is turning heal and pointing out issues with the new Tundra not being robust, reliable, or affordable like the last gen.. And largely it’s the same people who absolutely sh*t on the old Tundra for years, for being so boring. If the old Tundra had sold like the F-150, or Ram even. We’d be seeing a very different Tundra now I suspect.

Amen to that!

All the guys on KZfaq like tfl and the rest of them kept saying that Tundra was outdated the powertrain was old heck that was the best thing about the Tundras. That's why I bought the one I have, no turbos and no displacement on demand (afm).

Awesome, I just drove a 2024 frontier with my dad today, very nice truck. Will be reliable too…

I did the exact same thing. I love my new frontier. It’s a keeper

Wow! I haven't read so much truth in a single paragraph in a long time. Respect.

I can't imagine a lot of these new vehicles being around and operating properly in 20-25 years like the vehicles you have...but maybe I'm wrong.

Gm trucks have improved massively. It's not 2010 anymore

Where did the American manufacturers touch you?

​@@howebrad4601 In my experience, they are built for aesthetics, not the long haul. US manufacturers figured out decades ago how to make record profits, not just at the point of sale, but throughout the entire life cycle of a vehicle via subpar materials/engineering. Toyota, by contrast, built a global market off their reputation for reliable and well constructed vehicles that lasted infinitely longer. Likely why Toyota continues to pull market share(s) from gluttonous US manufactures. Some of whom, lest we forget, also enjoyed the privilege of our tax dollars/government bailouts. This is why to hear of Tundra engine problems is discouraging to those of us converts who grew tired of endless repair bill(s) and switched brands. Would hate to think Toyota is taking a page out of the US playbook. Hopefully this is a bump in the road for them, not a crater. Investing in the convenience of utterly reliable transportation is far greater than initially saving a few dollars on a more snazzily equipped American model to find myself loosing money over time in the shop month after month; which has been my experience. Merle Haggard sang a song in 1981 'Are the Good Times Really Over' that mentions building 'a Ford and Chevy to still last ten years like they should'. I used to be a die-hard GMC/Denali truck fan. It's not 2010 anymore, but brother IMO, Merle is just as right today as he was in 1981.

You bet!

Why are you blaming toyota when it's the government imposing sanctions because of emissions.

All the manufacturers could have stopped making vehicles, told the government that they can't make reliable vehicles with their EPA mandates and told them no more vehicles until they fix their mandates. Instead they are looking at this transition to unreliable vehicles as a new cash cow. Screw that crap.

@@brontoab1 4 million people work in the auto manufacturing business and 5 others are effected indirectly. You want to cause a mass layoff that could cause a warzone if companies decide to fight the government. It's all a ploy

​@@dethtourwhich is exactly why gm was bailed out and continues to make shitty products to this day.

a 2021 might outlast me if it's well cared for :).

I feel the same way with my 2015 TSS CrewMax. It’s the best car (& best looking) or truck I’ve ever had.

lol I just told my wife the same thing about my Sequoia with the 5.7. I told her it probably won’t die if I continue to actually perform maintenance on it and I’ll just be stuck with it forever. Not a bad thing I suppose.
