[@zarbon700]

Customers buying habits tell car manufacturers they want lot of tech, flashly exterior/interior and higher MPG. The issue is customers dont want to pay for what they want. You clearly don't realize Toyota only makes an average of $1300 profit per vehicle. Modern-day vehicles are extremely expensive to design and manufacture.

NHSTA's CAFE regulation stands for Corporate Average Fuel Efficiency. The average fuel efficiency (carbon dioxide emissions) is calculated not by vehicle type but by manufacturer, and a fine is imposed on manufacturers whose fuel efficiency exceeds a certain standard that takes into account annual sales volume and other factors.

Back around late 2019 or early 2020 i heard about this new V6. I Told my wife, i want nothing to do with turbos. I know how much greif they cause BMW. My brother in law told me that deals are great due to the pandemic in 2020. I went to Brantford Toyota and placed my order for a TUNDRA TRD OR. I am coming up to 5 years now and 70 000 kms and have had 3 very minor issues. The 5.7 v8 is a fantastic engine. The power it makes is crazy. Last time i checked, my 5 yo Tundra has depreciated maybe 10% since new. BTW, TKs Garage reported that Yota is bringing back the v8... that would be a very astute move.

[@czarekaj1098]

I had a Toyota Tundra of the 2009 flavor. Bought it used with about 35K miles. It had 5.7 i Force V8. Drove that thing till it showed 182K miles and the only thing that went wrong was one ignition coil. The service manager told me that I was "the lucky one" because that happens once for about 50 000 Toyotas. Diagnostics, parts and labor was about $270.00. Not bad for 9 years of ownership.

[@davehenry7262]

[@JasPlun]

For the most part yes, but I dis-agree with him on Toyota. Their reliability has not gone down as much as it sounds. 2 models have had some issues. The Tundra and Tacoma. The issues have been identified and corrected on both. Toyota does not get a pass for this happening, but it does not mean their quality and reliability is gone. The majority of their models have been proven reliable. In the past Toyota has had dips like this and always corrected the issues. I have zero concern that they are on their way out I call Bull Shit on that. If I were buying a vehicle right now brand new it would 100% be a Toyota. Our current 2020 Camry SE has not been in the shop (knock on wood) for anything except service and it is now 5 years old. Plenty of videos with 2020 Camries reaching 300k miles already.

Good morning and welcome to the vid

[@part-timeprotagonist7037]

"People are losing faith in Toyota..." Whenever someone posts something like this, I always ask the same thing the Car Care Nut asks: "How about the RAV4? Camry? Corolla? Sienna? Highlander? All these are no good? Not important? Why do you still have to wait months to get a Sienna and are lining up to buy one? I don't know, I guess only the Tundra's important." Granted, the new engines and the additional electronics and features add more points of failure, and the 2025 Camry going full hybrid will cause future concerns. But let's not pretend it's ALL of Toyota failing here.

[@JasPlun]

Yes and the Sky is Falling because Toyota had a couple of models have a few issues. If their entire line up were having issues well then yes I might start to wonder of they are changing, but they are not and the majority of them are as reliable as your going to get right now. If I had the money and could afford a new Tundra I would have zero issues buying one!

[@ECPP]

[@v.t.4338]

I honestly lost faith in all the models I wanted to buy. Tundra, Sequoia, lx600, gx550. I owned 2 of the 4. I am trying a turbo 4 Land Cruiser and honestly am not 100% on that engine either so yeah I really have lost faith in it

[@Paul37Ontario]

You forgot to mention that if you really want a Toyota truck you should just lease one. Then if it breaks, it's their problem, and they owe you a rental or you insist in getting out of the lease if they don't supply you with a rental. That's the secret with a lease, if its in the shop for more than a day, they owe you a rental. If it breaks, no big deal it's there truck. An example is Ford had a truck in for major repairs, told the "lease" customer that there was no complementary rentals available, customer called Ford Canada and Ford called the dealer to set the rules straight, the dealer called the customer saying that Enterprise will be picking him up and hooking him up with a rental. On a lease they owe you wheels. When you buy they just owe you good will on warrantee. (Lemon law's apply of course.)

[@breckfreeride]

Lease rhymes with fleece for a reason. Just find a low mile 5.7 and wait for the government regulations to drop and manufacturing to fix their crap.

I am not against having a turbo charge engine. I own a 2016 Subaru WRX limited only have had two recalls on the vehicle since owning it. I let the turbo charger warm up and take a minute or two and let it cool down when driving before shutting the engine off and have not had any issues with it. The Toyota engine issue on the other hand. Maybe due to the engine block strength based upon design and materials used. As you mentioned the turbo charger waste gate issue early on when the first models came out for the redesign generation. Excellent advice given to people though. Not to purchase the new generation of any vehicle that comes out from any vehicle manufacturer. Those vehicles will always have some type of issue that needs addressing. People who continue to purchase these vehicles knowing that there are issues. Are playing engine roulette with their safety and that of others on the road. To the customers who are demanding reliability, continue to do so because when you are spending such large sums of your hard earned money that is just ridiculous from Toyota, Ford, Chevy or Ram. I’m for less tech and gadgetry on vehicles, but part of that is also consumer driven. I believe Toyota should have kept the naturally aspirated V8 engine around as an option for customers who want a none turbo charge engine option.

That’s why I am done with ICE. Give me an EV. AC motors, controller and battery. No 9-10 speed transmission, crank angle sensor, fuel pump, turbos, O2 sensors.

My 2005 Camry LE...perfect for 15 years and 218,000 miles. Only had to replace shocks, brakes, and spark plugs. My 2020 Camry LE...perfect (so far) for 5 years and 23,000 miles. It looks like Toyota is circling the toilet...just like all the rest of them! What in the HELL is going on?

I see 100’s of giant suv and pickup everywhere, one person in it , little old man 70 on a walker climbing down out of giant 4x4 , little tiny lady in suburbans . If the object is to save fuel , then people need to downsize their fat bodies and buy something sense able. Price is due to dumb people buying more auto than they need . Waste money .
