[@johnyota131]

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!! 😅

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.

[@jeremyzinno7000]

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!

Got close to 300K on an old 5.4L Ford… I doubt that Toyota will ever see that kind of mileage.

@@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.

[@Bush63Master]

​@@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.

[@seikocitizenwatches]

I’m happy Toyota owner for 50 years and counting. I and my family members all prefer Toyota and Lexus over any other brand for our needs. It’s not only about the vehicle but more importantly, the dealers network, spare parts logistics, low cost of maintenance, reliability and longevity of Toyota brand.

[@rpoosua3452]

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.

[@Shegolga]

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.

[@thomasgardner1734]

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.

[@EngNerdGMN]

It's all in how you drive. The more aggressive you are in the starts and stops the faster your mileage drops. If you're a calm driver not in a rush you can easily get 18+ in the city and 21+ highway.

[@dragonstepper]

I'm at steady 17.5 combined

[@SLHJR0390]

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.

[@joshc606]

You got to remember how much more power this thing makes for the MPG compared to the old 5.7. Just like the Ford eco boost, it’s all about driving style. I’ll get 17-18mpg in an eco boost and my dad gets 23 -24lol

Trucks don’t get great gas mileage

[@MrGunner945]

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.

176k on my first gen. Solid 14 mpg no matter what.

[@GoForItAlways]

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

[@Weatherby406]

Do not put washable filters in it.. especially in dusty environments. My 5.7 tundra and 4.0 tacoma both had dirt in the intake from them. Especially on turbocharged engines. Filters were oiled regularly. They just don’t filter as well.

[@Jutdees]

Filters are cheap, engines are expensive right? Just pay for what's needed.

[@MegaRetr]

Awesome Tundra 😊 thanks for this video😊

[@johnwest2396]

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

[@spindrift2719]

Yeah I want 500K out of my 2014 Tundra 5.7 or more if possible with plans to SC it and I’m at only 140 K miles

[@johnwest2396]

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.

[@jd-it4on]

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

[@ryandoyle4344]

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.

[@BaileyWiggebutt]

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.

[@johnh9677]

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.

[@Bush63Master]

Actually the new Land Cruiser is a 4cyl w/hybrid i-force MAX system...wonder how that's gonna work out.

[@Mark-zz9rt]

Great video god speed.

[@user-zb3zn7yx6b]

I don't recommend oiled filters on a boosted engine. The turbos tend to suck the oil from the filter and coat the intake and turbo with a film of oil, is it hurting anything? Don't really know, but I don't like it. Previous owner had one on the 5.9 Cummins I used to have. When I took it apart, there was a film of oil coating the intake and compressor wheel. Ended up buying an S&B intake with replaceable paper filters. Totally worth it.

[@andrewpetersen1259]

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.

[@kmpaton]

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.

[@Weatherby406]

Throw that washable filter away. They allow dust to get in even when oiled often. I could see the dust my trd filter let in on my 5.7.

[@HumbleHotshot]

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..

[@billshepard6664]

[@wasichuwacanta7010]

"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?

Bought the 2024 1794 Limited and keeping my fingers crossed.

[@EngNerdGMN]

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.

[@eddyb6790]

Great video. Same thoughts here with my Platinum, 16.5 mpg. Love the smooth delivery of power but not even close to rated MPG.

[@user-fp9rv2bn6f]

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.

[@DeathsInverse]

I'm just under 10k miles on my 23 platinum and I'm sitting at 15.2 mpg mostly city miles.

[@7sunsetmaro7]

Like how they prioritized the Battery Voltage as a display piece on the cluster vs. oh, maybe engine temp?

Do you feel like your Transmisson performs pretty well in the really cold weather? First 15 minutes of driving?

[@HumbleHotshot]

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

[@paulsumpter9573]

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.

[@Johnny-yr4rb]

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.

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.

[@BlueWaterRedBlood]

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.

[@scholz222]

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.

[@kylesummers1565]

I'm a Toyota fan. I still have a 02 TRD Tacoma that I bought new and is at about 200k miles (I consider that my recovery truck when all else fails). It has never gotten stuck that I/it couldn't unstick by myself. I bought a 2013 Rock Warrior Tundra new and recently sold it to my company as a work truck at 120k miles. It has the 5.7 and the mpg pretty much matched your right foot. The 4:30 (I think) diff was great for acceleration/grades/towing, but not so much for mpg. I replaced it with an F-150 Tremor because I couldn't get the Toyota I wanted and what they had or could order did not have recovery hooks (I think they learned that lesson). I doubt the Ford will last as long as the Toy without major issues, but I am getting good mpg with the Coyote (almost 20 combined after 15k miles) and it is nice to drive. Unless the Tremor proves me wrong though, I will always keep my eye on the Toys. Peace, Love!!

[@tomfox1751]

The oil should still be clean at 10k miles with a brown tint not dirty looking. Change my oil at 10k intervals on my '17 ecodiesel and test results at 100k showed oil was still very good and could be run longer. Seems that the fuel economy that sucked so bad on the previous generation isn't a whole lot better on this one, so what is the benefit of added complexity of a turbo six if you didn't gain a big increase in fuel economy? Glad my ecodiesel gets 27-30 mpg as it really annoys me to get crappy fuel economy.

[@Blanddog]

Are you going to change the rear ratio on to help the mileage?

[@douglasgeis3471]

Won’t help. The engine only turns 1700 rpm unloaded at 70 mph now. With the hybrid I get 18.3 hwy and city. I easily run away from any 5.7 v8.

[@laserant]

Just a word of advice my friend I own a Mazda ZX9 with a single Turbo and I had to remove The K&N filter. Apparently turbo didn’t like it

[@d.vanwinkle9482]

You might want to rethink the K&N filter recommendation. There is another mechanic channel that showed how minute amounts of oil deposited on the Mass Air Flow Sensor. Causes problems that might outweigh any savings in filters.

[@kyleottosen1021]

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.

[@rsdaarud]

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.

[@Buck0seven]

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.

[@jensenlerias4833]

What type of gas octane do you put? 87 or 91?

[@HumbleHotshot]

This company runs 85 octane which is 'Regular' here in Colorado.

[@timothyleemay]

I’m trying to decide between the standard twin turbo and the hybrid on a new Tundra. Sounds like the standard engine has plenty of power for you?

[@kevinhilker3356]

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

[@alank8266]

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).

[@CanadianOffroad4x4]

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

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.

23 Platinum owner and love the truck. Had a Sierra before and didn’t want to replace lifters or engine due to their fuel management. We have a 2014 Avalon and it has 115k on it and 60% of the life on the original breaks. No codes either. I really like all the visuals the truck gives me in town, especially parking. My wife loves driving it. I did put some front tow hooks on which is great (a miss on the design). They mount below the sway bars which was an easy job. Only complaint I have is the switch lowering the rear window is backwards. Push up to lower? Come on T. I appreciated your oil change video. I’m changing at 2500 miles and then 5000. Break in oil in diesels is usually 100 hours, typically at near 100% throttle operating. Average 50 mph for 100 hrs on the tundra that 5000 miles. I still want to do it at 2500 just to give the engine every chance at longevity. God bless brother.

[@FranciscoHugoGarcia]

the reason they went with 0w20 0w8 oil is because of the low friction piston rings.

my old 5.7's got 12mpg city but my 24 I-Force Max is getting 18.7 city/23 hwy. My 2013 Ram 1500 gets 15mpg city/22 hwy with the MDS system. But the Ram @ 175k needs a rear-end rebuild & manifolds ($5500). The old 5.7's ran 170-200k without any mech issues. I'm still convinced that gas is the cheapest thing you will ever put in a work truck.

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.

[@HumbleHotshot]

Yeah.. I will check them at 50k and see where they're at. Thanks for sharing!

[@Craig2142]

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😬.

Toyota makes two types of brake pads. The standard replacement pads are good for 60 to 70 k and the pink made in Japan pads are good for 120k

[@iq6840]

Where are you driving so much?

[@roadglide1142]

Do you think this engine will make a million miles like several previous gen V8 already have ?

[@HumbleHotshot]

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.

Engine maybe, turbo i doubt it. Turbo sealed probably be on it way out before the 100k mile marks

[@adidas2284]

​@@jerrymouas5988 How many turbo diesels do you know that have turbo seal issues with less than 200k mi?

[@billyhill988]

4wd and in the snow is really going to lower the mpg. Up and down the hills…stop lights….15 is good.

[@WildFaith]

Agreed 👌

[@jpete3027666]

Good call going with 5k mile instead of 10k. Oil is cheap, engines are expensive. Turbos are expensive too and need good oil to lubricate them.

[@cristianstriblea792]

My tundra TRD sport 2022 has 26,000 miles and I am very happy with her I use royal purple oil

[@blackcoffee730]

Buy AEM dry air filters. Easy to clean, high quality and no oiling.

[@dimmacommunication]

5:55 Damn... an highway with redlights ?

[@MJ_Bass]

Aftermarket air filters are junk for the most part. Paper filters are just way more effective at protecting the engine.

[@jonvanhouten8369]

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.

[@bryane2857]

Hmmm.. 0 is how the oil operates at start up but acts like a 20 once warm. You said onces it warms the oil gets thinner and starts leaking. Correct me if I'm wrong but onces it gets warm the oil is the top number weight "20". The leaking in other brands isn't becuase the oil was too thin rather than bad engineering to keep the tolerances tight enough or bad seals etc...

[@kyleottosen1021]

It acts as a 0 wt oil when cold but acts as a 20 wt when hot. a 20 wt oil when hot is still thinner than a cold 0 wt oil so 0w-20 is still thinner when it’s warm than when it’s cold.

[@HumbleHotshot]

You're correct about the numbers, but all oil still gets thinner as it heats up... and also as it deteriorates. Think of what oil looks like pouring out of a new container compared to a drain pan full of waste oil. Maybe the 0 weight isn't too blame all the time, but I did see a lot more oil consumption issues in new vehicles when they started using it. Just my observations ! God bless
