Scotty, I'm looking to buy a 2021 tundra for my first ever truck. I saw in a video that they don't have a transmission cooler in this model, but I still want the V8 instead of the newer models. What do you think about longevity for the 2021 Tundra?

[@carlbegnaud4851]

Scotty , how about the new German Marla or Mala Electric Car motors and Batteries that claim to beat Tesla ?

It constantly blows the head gaskets and reverse keeps going out in the transmission. Also the parts and regular maintenance on these things is outrageously expensive and I do all my own work.

[@michaelbuerhaus8409]

Love that supercharger...the sound, the power, the excitement.... totally AWESOME! Thanks for sharing, Scotty!

[@chrisokeeffe7624]

Toyota could dominate the 1/2 tone truck market if they brought back that engine as standard equipment. At least for people that need a truck that can work, tow, haul.

[@rad2304]

My 2UZFE is now 350K miles with the TRD supercharger installed at 200K. No issues whatsoever. This engine is bulletproof

Long shot I’ll get an answer, but how is the tundra and supercharger doing a year later?

[@trinchezito1383]

Any updates?

[@2020Tundra]

The air injection pump went out in my 2007 Tundra and my dealer charged me over $2,300 to replace it… and that was 4 or 5 years ago!! After hearing Scotty say the part now costs less than $600 and takes only 1 hour to change out; I got ripped off for sure!!! 😡

My dad had the same problem with the wheel bearing and they charged him $2100 when they quoted him 800 for it but I went to my local mechanic and they quoted me $180 never go to a dealership unless you plan on buying the part there, and if you think it’s manageable, DIY yourself

[@anthonyvasquez7050]

No way Scotty can change the air injection pump in less than an hour. It’s located right on the firewall, just about where the transmission and engine mount together. There’s no space for a easy removal and install

​@@kevinowens1732Back in 2007, when he bought his Tundra, the only place to get them was Toyota. I had one of my Tacoma. I've looked up superchargers recently for Toyotas, they're not TRD, but they cost almost $7,400.

[@rickroemer8391]

Superchargers are very cool but you can almost see the gas gauge go down when you punch it :)

[@speeedy95]

@rickroemer8391 you don't even need the supercharger for that just turning the key you can watch it go straight to empty. My 13 5.7 TRD off-road 4x4 crewmax with 4inch lift 33.1250x20 gets 6mpg and that's babying it $515+ a week to go to work and I don't have a supercharger but will be installing a turbo setup.

[@rickroemer8391]

@@speeedy95 Wow that's some wicked gas mileage

[@speeedy95]

@rickroemer8391 Yeah, it sucks I wanted an 83 crew cab 4x4 4 speed manual 454 squarebody. Found 1 in excellent shape with all records and 110,000 original miles $4,500. My dad wouldn't let me get it because he said it's a gas hog. Well, he's been regretting that decision as my Tundra is just as much of a gas hog as a 454, and it's also a money pit. Everything for these trucks is outrageously expensive. Mine keeps blowing head gaskets and constantly losing 3rd and reverse in the transmission.

Nice to see the AJT-Designs climate control knobs!

Sound deadening installed in doors with upgrade speakers, single-DIN stereo receiver, and looking forward to installing LCE Performance Street Header kit (10% more hp, same mpg as fuel efficiency is related to weight).

You should review the new Tundra and Sequoias with the new turbo V6 hybrid combo. The CarCareNut reviewed it and determined Toyota has gone German in how complicated and potentially problematic this new powertrain could be long term.

I wanted that Toyota TRD supercharger when I bought my new Tundra back then . But they told me that 2017 was the last year Toyota would install the actual factory blower , with the included factory warrantee coverage . They offered a custom aftermarket blower but that wasn't covered under the Toyota warrantee .

[@edwardk6764]

On my tacoma, the secondary air injection pump has a foam filter inside it that will deteriorate over time and funk up your system. To avoid this, you remove the old filter and put on a small pod filter. I used a small k&n.

[@bkl8804]

Scotty always puts a smile on my face. His grandson is a lucky kid.

And don't forget the Air filters at least once a year. If you're on dusty roads I'd change it twice a year. And you don't need a K-N filter unless You actually keep it washed and reoiled or whatever is sprayed on the outside the 🧐.

Hey scotty, I seen you on a car show long time ago talking about gear vendors. Do guys put that in there trucks still over there? I've only found it in 80's Era ford 250's with a 4 speed.

[@yougoof]

The f 150's of the 90's with the 5.0 litre were the first trucks I've seen with a charger. You could do burnouts up to third and fourth. But mind you those tires will bald so fast. The rears will be gone before the fronts.

[@ecschindelbeck]

My 2010 Tundra 5.7 with 221k miles is within 1% of perfect on the fuel trim on both banks. Thinking the supercharger may be causing the 3% variation. Also Hewitt makes a little black box that is a plug-n-play solution for secondary air system issues, and costs about $400.

I'll never understand why Toyota replaced the 32v 350c.i. with a twin turbo hybrid to give you 1 more MPG, and if you put your foot in it, you don't even get that 1 MPG. Talk about shooting themselves in the foot...

[@louisbabycos106]

It's about emissions and planned obsolescence.

[@todorkolev7565]

the trick is to sell the number. You WILL get better MPG out of a smaller engine, if you drive slow. You WILL get more horsepower out of a turbo-engine, if you step on it. So, they sell you both the MPG and the horsepower - but, in reality, you get neither! You can't have fun on the road because it's illegal and you are stuck in traffic anyway AND nobody really drives slow enough to get the better mileage :D

@@todorkolev7565 you are also forgetting about the 10sp and rear end ratio that truly saves the mileage. 4.30 rear on the V8 trucks is insane compared to anyone elses offering these days haha. Gee how did they manage better economy with the 22+ variant? Haha.

As soon as I got home from the dealership the day I purchased it 4x4 immediately broke needs transfercase. Warranty kept screwing me over wouldn't fix it. To make it start you have to bang on transfercase and starter cause when you turn the key on it immediately starts beeping and flashing 4lo. It thinks it's in 4lo when it's in 2wd. My last 1 was a 06 4x4 and it was junk 2. Constant steering and 4x4vproblems and at 200k miles the frame literally fell out from underneath the right front of it.

Titan v8: more power than Tundra v8 and a little better mileage, though still thirsty. Nissan engines usually are very tough too. And sound great. Media lives to bash Nissan, but owners love them. Been driving them over 40 years now, but can't afford gas for Titan, so I have little Nissans.

[@PortlandHowardLukenAndy]

I put that ATS gas and oil stuff in my Cadillac XTS and ended up putting a couple Grand into replacing plugs and gaskets and PCV valves and hoses and then found out the valves were gummed up with carbon so I had those cleaned sort of... It ran good for about a week and then I came off the highway and suddenly hear this loud ticking and a complete loss of power. I was told that some part above the lifters or rods had cracked! So I had a choice of rebuilding the entire crappy engine or putting a used one in. Cost me another four grand because I just can't afford getting into something new. When I tried to find out if anybody in the Midwest had their system for cleaning the rest of the intake your buddies in New Mexico hemmed and hawed and wouldn't tell me what repair shops had their equipment for that! I think they're a scam and I'm considering taking them to court for screwing up my motor.
