I have a ‘24 tundra trd pro with 15k miles so far. No issues yet 🙏🏽🙏🏽 purchased in sept of 2023 Houston!

[@kevinstrachan3724]

Hi Tim, I purchased a 24 Limited Tundra in May (before I found out about the engine problems). I love the truck. I found your videos and immediately recognized the scenary. I grew up on a farm in Mitchell Valley. Currently living outside of Houston. Thanks for your great videos and keeping us informed on the Tundra developments.

[@Dusdaddy]

You make good points about the hybrid: We really don't need any more damn towing ability in a 1/2-ton, we need affordability. Most of the recreational towing is probably be 6-7K or less. That'll cover most bumper pull TTs as well as utility trailers. That's all a 1/2-ton really needs to be able to handle, but it needs to handle that well.

[@pullingguard5435]

Love my 22 ford powerboost with pro power on board. Traded my 15 tundra in for it and haven’t regretted it for one moment.

[@sanantoniotonight5569]

Had a 2023, dealer purchased it back after constant engine issues. Rode like a rocket, when the engine was actually working. Definitely a conversation starter.

[@omarrivera737]

I just bought my 2024 Tundra Pro a few weeks ago and I have 0 complaints. I’m loving the performance and look over all!

[@DB-we2wk]

Probably waiting for the truck to break down.

[@jeffclarke4720]

I owned a 2004 tundra and currently own a 2016 tundra. Pricing on the newer trucks has pushed me away. No pickup truck ever made is worth 75-90k Maybe some of the super super duty but no 1/2 ton pickup.

[@Dusdaddy]

Same thing everybody said about a $50k truck 20 years ago.

[@nlken7175]

You forgot one of the biggest dislike's. No step to get in the bed seeing it don't have a rear bumper to step on. Too bad this truck is less useful as a TRUCK than the 2021 or older.

[@hochhaul]

They reduced the width of the bed noticeably too. That one drives me crazy as it's such a fundamental function of a truck.

[@Pickuptrucktalk]

I had so many more dislikes to be honest.

[@AStanton1966]

Along with no step, no front tow hooks or V-8.

[@Nosaj-dt1ij]

I like my 22 - a few issues, but so far Toyota has taken care of them (albeit after significant effort and time invested on my part for a few things). Definitely need an aftermarket option for infotainment system. Really sucks, even after recent update.

[@BobPritchard]

Tim, your kids are hilarious! Tuned out teenagers. We've all been there. Maybe you should ask them for their 5 likes and dislikes.

[@Rottingboards]

Thanks for showing payload! You are awesome.

[@cpftank09]

I wished Toyota would have taken more inspiration from the F150 Powerboost. The PB provides more power as well as fuel economy, PLUS up to 7.2kw of on board power. So much more useful.

[@la435kubota]

True abut the 14 inch daytime display mode when set in the automatic control. It is way too bright and distracting in automatic mode. I switched to NOT using the automatic control and enabled the manual Dark mode for all the time and it looks way better and lest distractng (next to turing it off).

[@Pistolmike59]

I had a new 23 Ford F150 loaded Limited that was totaled in an accident by some moron pulling out in front of me. I now have 24 Tundra TRD Pro. Both about the same price. I liked both trucks. The Toyota does have a better ride. Couldn’t find another F150 with the options I wanted (Ford kept dropping things like bed facing camera, heated steering wheel, no rear fender liners or mud flaps, etc because of chip shortage). The Tundra feels more powerful. Ford has a much better tailgate step by far. I miss the rear under-seat storage in the Tundra as the hybrid battery takes up all the space. Not pleased about the engine problems with the Tundra for sure as one of the main reasons to going Toyota was quality control and reduced maintenance over the long term. I keep vehicles for 10-15 years, so we’ll see if my choice was wise or not as time goes on.

[@frankkeel8410]

Was that Gremlin behind your seat a option?

[@ksorsomeplace]

Positives: Color (something other than the black, white, silver, and gray quadruplet), exterior (especially 1794 trim), and some more unique engineering underneath (rear axle construction). Negatives: No need for a hybrid (it's optional, I know, I would not option it), 4WD (I don't off-road, I don't worry about snow, etc), and the price (you need a better than better than average income to comfortably afford it!

[@JJJ5.7]

Back in the day we used to call softex, vinyl. The leather name is used by manufacturers too loosely. Tow hook story is garbage. Other manufacturers don't have safety issues with tow hooks.

[@blackwatch7151]

Corinthian leather!

[@jarbarian]

I just spent $1500 for a platinum 10yr/100k warranty for my 2024 Tundra TRD Limited 4x4. I hope I never have to use it but those V6s are still spinning cranks.

The new Tundra TRD Pro prices are creeping up to the price of a base Raptor. Yet the raptor is a much overall better truck and more enjoyable to drive.

[@zacbelcher7019]

Owned a 22 & 23 tdr tundra they both was the worst truck ever drove. I run a Nissan Titan pro 4x under them a lot better built truck. Doors and windows don’t rattle. I can roll down the back window with out it trying to fall out. They run double pain windows so it’s quite. New tundras need to stay in the city because it’s not made for off road.

Does the trd pro fix all the interior cabin issues? Like cheap plastic, creaks, rattles etc. What about the flimsy grill plastic? I think you could of easily done a 10 things you like and dislike video with all the things you left out.

[@JoshNieves]

I doubt it as the TRD Pro has the Limited interior and not the nicer interior found on the Platinum and above.

[@Pickuptrucktalk]

I didn’t experience anything like that.

[@SuperSnakePlissken]

Ugliest front ad of any truck ever made at the seats are very uncomfortable. Those are my two big complaints.

[@docholliday6285]

The problem, beyond quality control issues, is the Taco is now officially ugly. The TRD Pro looks pretty decent but all other models remind me of a Lego.

[@frankkeel8410]

I heard from a Toyota mechanic the motor is made out of recycled bear cans. How dare they!

[@BZ1340]

Is Toyota the only company that has no tailgate step function. Like Ford, GM and Dodge have. Seems they are behind the curve. That’s a deal breaker for me in my construction work load. In and out of the box numerous times in a day. Plus our winter climate condition. My 4wd auto is a godsend in ice and snow to dry pavement in parking lots

[@automandan]

Yeah, I tried out one of these vehicles. I gotta be honest, very disappointed. The design is questionable at best, and for what you pay for this vehicle, I'd expect more. So, let's point out the issues I had with this vehicle. 1. The interior who gave the green light to send the current interior to production? It's a mess that the quality of the interior feels cheap and low quality. The seats are lumpy and uncomfortable, and I had a horrible time finding a comfortable seating position. 2 the ride, yes, I know it's an off- road pickup, but come on, the ride was stiff and uncomfortable even over small imperfections in the road. Now I know Idaho's roads aren't the best. However, they're considering better than what you get in Wyoming or Washington, or even Oregon. That being said if you try to drive those roads over there in that truck. We'll let's just say you better have a skeleton made out of granite cause this truck will beat you up on those roads. The Ram Rebel and the GMC Sierra AT4 have better rides than this truck. 3 the engine and transmission combo is eh. The Tundra's transmission feels jerky at lower speeds and not much better at higher speeds. So Toyota should probably look into reflashing the computer interior transmission and try to make the shifts smoother. 4 tow hooks or lack of. You're telling me that on a nearly 80k truck, you can't get tow hooks. 🤷🤷. Come on, Toyota, get your shit together. 5 price the Msrp on those trucks is 70 to about 75k. However, because they're so exclusive to get ahold of a lot of the dealers are charging 5k over. So, over 80k for those trucks. So way over too much over in my opinion given the stuff I mentioned. For about the same amount of money, I could buy a Ram Rebel, an F150 tremor, a GMC Sierra AT4, or even an AT4X or even a ZR2 Silverado. No thanks. Toyota is a swing and a miss in my book. Toyota needs to do better.

Ahh the Tundra haters. I love my 22 platinum hybrid. You can cry all you want about how much you hate the Tundra, but I love it. I'm not a fanboy, just experienced. As you can imagine, I will never buy a Ford or Chevy. About my truck, auto step lets me in and out of the back quicker than a For or Chevy guy can undo their gimmick gate. Trucks in its class, Tundra out tows it. The looks of the Tundra inside and out, beautiful. Yes I am getting 21 mpgs. It does the job I need it to do. Keep hating, doesn't change my view.

[@markpolice3585]

I've talked to a lot of new Tundra owners. One had to have an engine replacement and he still said he would buy it again. Every video about a 3rd gen Tundra is gonna have these crybabies responding but none of them actually own one.

[@atg1338]

Got mine in march... seats suck and they don't heat that great, wind noise inside, back bumper is worthless, way to much cheap plastic outside and in, jbl system sucks, tailgate shuts like a 1970s truck👎great power, love the pano roof ans rear window👍 gave it to my wife and got a new Silverado zr2 1500👍

[@jeffkondra8246]

Just go buy the new F150 Hybrid, and be done with it. Far better truck from American owned company.

[@HSwest1]

Not American made though. Tundra is the most American made truck.

[@jeffkondra8246]

@@HSwest1 The Tacoma is made in Mexico, and the Tundra is made in a non union plant in Texas, and there profits go back to Japan. The Ranger is made in a UAW plant in Wayne Michigan, profits go to Dearborn Mich.They just had a 100 year anniversary of the Ford plant in Chicago that makes the Explorer and police intercepter. They showed in the 40's how that plant made most of the Army and jeep trucks for the military for WW ll . Something we need to think about the way the world is going.Buy American.

[@HSwest1]

Might want to research a little more into ford. They were playing both sides in WWII. Ford supplied the nazis with engines. And i don’t care where the profits go, Toyota has plants all over the US employing US workers. Facts are facts…The tundra is the most American built truck in the US.

[@RedWingsninetyone]

​@@jeffkondra8246 I missed the part where the American workers in Texas aren't getting money and spending it in their local, American, economy. Don't get me wrong, I am a fan of the F150 overall, but they (Ford) have the most recalls of any manufacturer right now. I'd probably take a Chevy over the F150 and I don't trust GM at all after growing up as a GM guy.

[@jeffkondra8246]

@@RedWingsninetyone Just remember they sell about 75,000 Tundras, Ford sells 600,000 trucks a year, and the Tundra just recalled 100,000 bad motor for there tundra. And ya the workers at toyota spend there money in America, but the big profits go back to Japan. My Dad served in the WWll Army and what Ford and Gm did for this country switching over production to build war vehicles and fighter planes, i won't forget. We ever get in a war now , is Toyota going to build our tanks. The way the world is going , people need to wake up and support our own, just saying.

[@1FiftyOverland]

@Dusdaddy lol what did Raptor copy from TRD?

[@peiguy1982]

What I don't like about it, is up until april 2024, it had the same ICE as the non hybrid model that cooks the main bearings. And no replacement for hybrids because Toyota isn't forced to do so. You can pull to the side of the highway under hybrid power, so it's not a safety issue. I'd be seriously pissed and would probably trade for a Ford/Chev/Dodge and never buy another Toyota again. Fan boys in denial.

Video coming on this very topic this week.

[@AgentGeo]

I used to own a '22 TRD Pro. Had it for a whole 6 months before i had enough...Traded it in for a '23 F150 Raptor and could not be happier. To that point, you mentioned folks comparing a TRD Pro to a Raptor...Not even close. The TRD Pro is probably more comparable to a Tremor (and the Tremor still beats it IMO). I agree it was a comfortable truck to drive until you had to turn lol. A couple of other dislikes for me...needs bigger tires from the factory (at least 35s). Turning radius is pretty horrible. Have they fixed a lot of the fit and finish issues that plagued the early Pros? You mention the price as being something you like...I whole heartily disagree. The MSRP for the '22 TRD Pro that I had was ~$66K. What makes the '24 model year worth $8K more? This is Toyota's greed. All and all the TRD Pro is a relatively boring truck. When i see one on the road now it doesn't even get a second glance like it used too.

Is it really a highway safety issue or is that Toyota just making excuses because with the Powerboost of the F-150 you get a flat floor if I'm not mistaken so how is it that ford does it right but yet somehow Toyota claims this crap of highway safety stuff where ford has no issue. Is it really what Toyota is saying or just something that higher ups did not want. I do not believe that at all.
