2022 Toyota Tundra Quick Review // New Bag Of Tricks

The 2022 Toyota Tundra Double Cab SR ($56,335 CAD as specced, ~$49,995 USD as specced) is a brand new pickup filled with Toyota’s latest tech. It gets many new updates over the outgoing model, such as rear coil springs and a new infotainment system. But in lieu of a V8, Toyota has opted for a twin-turbo V6 engine in all 2022 Tundra models. Thomas and James are excited to see what the new Tundra is about and if the updates have made any noticeable improvements over the previous generation. We hope you enjoy the episode! Subscribe!!

All in all find the fit and finish to be early 90s levels. everything feels cheap and re-used from other vehicles in their lineup. Lastly the coil suspension which is why i wanted to give this truck a try was terrible. It felt like it drove like a 15 year old suv with worn out coils.

[@themeach011]

I kinda disagree about towing with the turbo v6's. I've had quite a few 3.5 EcoBoost trucks and only one 5.0L. the EcoBoost is at 90% of its torque at like 1700rpm. The V8 is constantly fishing for gears at every little hill or headwind. The turbo v6's pull more like the way a diesel pulls. Fuel economy is awful on either option when towing so that's not really a consideration in my mind. Not too sure on long term reliability as I haven't really had any major issues with either.

[@ph00ny1]

Key is that it's at 1700RPM with turbo spooled up not on its own. Prolong turbo spool isn't good either with oil temp plus engine compartment heaat

[@LoboLakerGaming]

That’s actually more of a bottom trim than a mid-trim. SR is the base trim, and because it’s a double cab it costs significantly less than a crew cab. The bread and butter truck for Toyota will be the SR5 trim, with crew cab, and 4x4.

[@chrispy3045]

To be fair, they are driving an SR5. Not an SR like they say.

[@georgehugeabutt9947]

yeah SR is detuned compared to the SR5 . Technically theres 3 different power outputs for this new tundra . 1. 348hp and 405lb/ft - 2. 389hp and 479lb/ft - 3. i-FORCE MAX powertrain produces up to 437 hp, 583 lb.-ft.

Admittedly not a truck guy but I totally agree, they do all more or less look the same to me. The Rivian was the first one that really caught my eye. That’s less about the what i.e. what features, and more about the how i.e. how they’re delivered, how it looks. It’s very distinct, I was legitimately impressed, which is a big feat from a truck for me.

[@haydenwiseman3056]

The only problem I see with things like the Rivian is that these EVs just seem too quirky. I can't wait until the F150 and the Silverado come out as they seem much more mainstream. I get that these startup companies need to make a name for themselves but it just seems like most EVs don't really fit in, they all try and look special.

[@turbo_lander7301]

So Diesels use turbos and are great for towing. Turbos are fine for towing. People are just skeptical at about the V6. If it was a V8 with Turbos no one would say anything. So the issue really is the V6 and let's be honest those who don't like it hate the sound. I'm perfectly happy with a Boosted engine (no matter size or cylinders) as long as it had power.
