I would be interested to add the tundra "hybrid" drivetrain instead of just the naturally aspirated engine

[@kevinvcourt]

Tfl please reach out to trigger happy on KZbin he has had his 22 tundra in the shop for a turbo wastegate problem and it’s a wide spread issue that they are ignoring we need updates and too know if this new truck is reliable.

The testing I'd like to see is a towing MPG loop towing the same trailer at equal speed. last mpg loop the Rivian pulled slower at 55 average. I'm liking the new trailer and at 7000 is a good weight for all to tow.

I wonder how much faster the I Force Max Tundra would be compared to the standard engine on the Tundra.

[@MrJcjet]

In an early test it was about 0.2 seconds. Not much. It's 12% more power and 8% more weight. The net difference isn't much in 0-60.

[@shitloveaduck]

It made a significant difference on the F150 hybrid vs 3.5 V6. Toyota has definitely chosen to make their system a lot less rev happy than Ford. That can really hurt off the line times, but it has shown on the Ike to be a nice choice for towing and using the very low power band both 3.5 variations have, Ford and Toyota. TFL will be sure to get a regular production model to test out. They had a pre-production model initially. If I remember right.

[@schutte83]

I was thinking the same thing

[@achris777]

You read my mind. The hybrid has 12% more power but 22% more torque than the standard TT V6 (and a whopping 15% more power and 45% more torque!) than the old V8. I hope they do some good testing of the hybrid vs standard Tundra.

It's very heavy and therefore doesn't show substantial gain in acceleration

Been watching your channel for years now, love the content. It would be really nice to see channels such as yours really address the issues with the current truck/car market. The reality is that it’s close to impossible to purchase ANY of the trucks you all review on a regular basis, let alone avoiding the “market adjustments.” I’d like to see channels like yours that have a voice use it to hold dealerships accountable for their business practices.

[@shitloveaduck]

If you go back, they have!

[@NWI_Steel]

You have to order and wait if you want to pay msrp

[@shitloveaduck]

@@NWI_Steel - Shop around. Not all the dealerships are adding market price adjustments. I live in Alberta Canada & know of 4 Ford dealerships within 200 miles that are honest and a couple will even negotiate a bit off of MSRP, up to maybe $850, or so. I have a good friend that has a dealership and he has made substantial improvements to his main location and had to lease a location where a dealership used to be. He has that location for PDI and delivery of the new vehicles as they come in. That location is busier than the dealership location right now. He has so many special orders backlogged he sees at least a years worth of work so is trying to purchase the location from the receiver. He is so busy as there are a few dealerships, some not even Ford, that are padding the prices. The people that don’t want to pay markup, go to my buddy’s dealership. He is swamped with orders. The other dealerships that are padding the prices still sell some product as people assume they all do it. They really don’t all do it. My buddy’s lot is empty and even has very few used vehicles as he is fair in pricing those as well. As soon as a decent product hits the lot, it’s sold. The other dealers are sitting on reasonable inventories, not like before, but with the word out many buyers treat them as bad news leaving them with stagnant product on the lot, of all things. The biggest hit currently are the typical vehicles that get marked up in the USA. Some have returned to selling in a more ethical manner, but their reputations have been damaged and sales are not returning like they had before. It is really fun getting together with my buddy and his competitors even. They all have great working friendships and are amazing to listen to with their experiences and stories!! My buddy’s holding company is also invested in a Stelantis dealer and a Toyota dealership. It appears that price padding may be more prevalent in the USA, but every time I make this similar comment I hear from people that have bought for MSRP or slightly less in the USA. They are out there!!! Suspect it may mean a bit of travel, but if you save thousands, or tens of thousands on some vehicles,,,,,,,,

What? The raptor and trx show up in places like LA at the valet. Why? No truck guys buy those trucks because they absolutely suck at truck stuff.

What a cool video...I love the Black Series trailers. I own a TRD supercharged 2015 Tundra Platinum 4x4 on 35's that will smoke the the tires with a trailer in tow in 2WD, but I think the TRX is the one vehicle I might trade it in for; that supercharged hemi engine combined with the AWD and 4-link rear setup is just awesome. My Tundra had to be highly modified to get where it is, but the TRX and the Raptor 37 are badass from the factory...about all I'd have to add is a winch, some extra trail lighting, and a retractable bed cover.

Sometimes I am floored by what the viewers want. They are an automotive review channel. If you have t noticed, they are very busy with little free time. Now you want 150 mile tow loops?? How much more are they going to learn in that distance vs 50 miles? Really,,,,,. You come up with 10 realistic additional items. Then while they are doing that, they are reviewing fewer vehicles potentially as there’s only so much revenue. They can’t go out hiring a bunch more staff. The giant towing loops are not going to bring in more viewers, just satisfy a vey small minority with your interests. There’s always a bigger picture. People won’t want to watch a 3 hour towing test, which probably is over 6 hours to complete not including the huge task of editing 3 hours of video,,,, FOR ONE TRUCK!! You will want to see a 20 minute video for 3 trucks,,,, summ up the information and move on,,,,, what a waste of time and resources. In the area I live in Canada, the most trailers behind trucks that are seen in the road are RVs. They are towing maybe 1 - 1.5 hours in traffic at most on average, sure there are some long hauls, but the weekenders, which cram up the highways on Friday’s and Sundays, are not going very far. 50 miles is highly representative. You are not being very reasonable in asking such an arduous and tedious task that takes them away from other reviews and tests.
