How’s your fuel economy

[@nicolathonathan770]

Trust me, if you drive the truck in the New England states and never wash your frame after each snow, the rust will kill the truck quick. That’s how my truck died, everything mechanical is in perfect safe, but the frame, especially where the control arm bracket welded to the frame is rusted to a degree unsafe to drive. I really wish they build a truck with Ford frame and Toyota body. Ford frames are a lot rust resistant.

[@thumperpaul]

It’s a TRUCK. If you want fuel economy, buy a Tesla.

[@nicolathonathan770]

@@thumperpaul You don’t care fuel economy doesn’t mean others don’t, and welcome to this diversified world. 1 mpg difference means tens of thousand dollar for commercial use if you run 100 of them. And Tundra is an ultralight duty truck which require fuel economy rating by law.

[@sharkskin3448]

@@nicolathonathan770 right! Idiots typically say "if you wanted... buy a Prius!" As if we buy trucks to commute and go shopping (they prolly do). If you have to drive a truck (work or biz), and drive alot of miles, mpg is a legitimate concern.

I trade them at about 200K, which is really nothing for these things, so buy 'em and keep on trucking. Don't forget to mention that GM had to be bailed out of bankruptcy by the taxpayers, (whether we wanted to or not), a few years ago. That's enough for me to Never Buy Another GM Product.

Andrew, would that '03 be the 2UZE-FE V8 iForce engine and how long since you last R'n R'd the timing belt, if it is the V8? I just picked up one w/159K miles now as the 3rd owner. I expect to change out the timing belt(TB) and H2O pump in the area of 180K mile range expecting it was done once already. If it had been done around and even just past the recommended 90K mile mark (I'm told an original TB wouldn't make it to 150,000+ without snapping into shreds, expensive fix then) well I really have no service record or sticker anyway or where to know... If it hasn't been done... Geeez, idk and I'm getting anxious that just maybe the TB can go beyond its recommended 'under pain of death' 90K mile mark; so I had a peek by edging the left bank cam cover back after removing three or four bolts.... top of the belt looks great, no cracks.... please what have you heard or what has been your experience... have you owned this Tundra since it was new?

My 07 tundra just had the frame recalled and done, along with the bed and tailgate under a overdue out of warranty recall. Total bill was $28,000 in repairs all covered by toyota for free. Although this isnt proving toyota quality it does prove they are best in business for taking care of their customers, the box and tailgate was deff not required by law like the frame and they just did it anyway. I’ll be keeping my 07 until it completely disintegrates to dust now, the power it has and amount I can tow down rough forest roads with skidder ruts is better than any other! The driveline is rock solid still after 225,000 miles with no clunking or hard shifts!

[@PumaPete]

While I’m not a huge Toyota fan I’ll agree with you that the company does take care of their customers very well.

[@saintsfan7991]

Glad that you are enjoying your truck and that Toyota has stood by it. I have a 2008 Tundra and I am curious, what are the frame, bed, and tailgate recalls that you are referring to? Mine is white and Toyota did do a full repaint on it due to some milky white circles in the paint job. They really didn't bother me but I brought it into the dealership for something else and the service guy said that he could probably get it painted for me...he said that something was dripping on them from a leaking line during the paint process and caused the circles. I think it was only white models. Like I said, they were hard to see and didn't bother me. But I'm happy for the new paint job.

[@ToyotaNutjob]

That frame recall was only for 2000-2006 tundras if I recall correctly.

[@DrGreen-wl2ry]

07-08 tundra and sequoia frames as well. Small number of them affected but in Canada it was a class action lawsuit that got approved and they went good on it.

[@303MoTo]

Very well done & thorough review! I had a 2012 Rock Warrior Crewmax. I paid $35k in 2012. I had the AIP pump issues right at 2300 miles. Toyota took my truck and replaced the pumps, but I was stuck driving a Corolla for 6 weeks since parts were on backorder nationwide. After that I had zero issues for 5 years and 50k miles. I got $30k trade in for it in 2017 when I purchased my 4 runner. There was nothing wrong with the Tundra, I think I just had an itch for something different. Fast forward 3 years and I am back in a Tundra - 2020 TRD Pro. I love my Tundra and don't see changing trucks again anytime soon.

Great review. My dad has owned nothing but fords because all of his work trucks were fords. He switched to the tundra after seeing how quiet my 1990 celica I had ran back whem I was in the military. He bought am avalon in 01 and loved the reliability so he bought a tundra in 2013 and it has been the best truck he has ever owned. He bought another one as a work truck and not only commuted 90+ miles to work and another 90 miles back, but the truck ran idling all day and he had not a single issue with it. He won't buy anything else now. Both of his 2013 trucks have been flawless.

If you end up having a SAIS issue depending on state check out Hewitt Industries, if not that fix don’t be afraid to tackle the job at home, it’s really not bad. This is the #1 tundra issue and the dealer is likely to quote you $2400+ to fix it, it’s not as big of a deal as they make it out to be.

Need to look at total cost, not just fuel. My 2001 Tundra has had routine maintenance, shocks, O2 sensors and brake jobs. The single major expense was the timing belt. At this mileage, most of the competition would have needed transmission/differential and/or engine work. It will outlive me.

That's so true. The cost of maintenance, especially as it can easily go into the thousands, overshadows how much one pays for fuel.

[@robertmcleod1807]

I drive a 2010 SR5 regular cab 8foot box. It’s got a 3 inch levelling kit in the front but also has blocks under the leafs so it still has “stance”. I gotta say the truck looks and feels like a beast. The stance and toughness of it reminds me a bit of a 3/4 ton truck. When I bought it in 2016 all my buddies were in love with it because it outperformed their trucks. Now those guys have bought a brand new f150 and GMC Sierra. Even though the new trucks are better in most categories, (except the gmc my buddy bought, he got the wrong rear end and towing suffers because of it), the ole tundra still earns their respect. It’s a mans truck. The transmission always feels like it’s in “work mode”, it’s always downshifting early when slowing down. Some people might not like that because it takes away from the every day driving comfort, but I absolutely love it. I would rather it feel like a dump truck all the time than feel like an old Cadillac, (rams).

[@anhLe-hn3ig]

Did you suffer in the turning radius with the std cab and 8' bed? Are there storage space behind the seat? Do you have problem with keeping it on the road in rain/ice? Do your have a 6-cyl? If yes, was it enough for all your needs? I'm thinking of getting std cab, 8' bed, 6cyl.

[@russelllayton2477]

As an owner of a 2017 Tundra 4x4 SR5 TRD package double cab, I can say you really hit the nail on the head with this review. I agree with every flaw and feature you pointed out about the Tundra. I've looked at upgrading or even switching brands for the fuel economy, but that is the only thing I am "marginally" discontent with as far as ownership. My truck tows great, has never left me stranded, and with an aggressive set of oversized Cooper tires performs very well off road. I bought the truck with 39k miles used in 2019 for $28,000 and with 83k miles on it now the dealer offered me $28,500 for the truck. I was just curious with the crazy times what it was worth but I'm not selling it. I may consider the newer Tundra one day if gas goes to $6 a gallon here in CA but honestly I love the V8 and simplicity.

Spent another $2000 on shocks and undercarriage work It’s got 207,000 miles on it and rides like a dream. I highly recommend Mich Ltx Ms2 tires. Incredible traction, ride and road noise is minimal. Took some of my old friends to the keys for a week and they couldn’t believe how great a 14 year old truck looks and rides. I traded in a 2004 Tundra on this one.

[@TheDotDetective]

My family has owned Toyotas since 1980 starting with the Camry and then I broke the sedan trend and bought a 4Runner in 1997. The 4Runner had 305k on it when it was totaled (insurance totaled it) I bought a 2002 with 240k. We also replaced a totaled 1999 Camry with a high mileage Camry 2001 and it was still driveable in 2017, but my mother could no longer drive. So, I just bought a 2018 Tundra because I wanted to be able to heavier loads than a 4Runner. My ex husband had Ford F150 with a rear seal leak. He said HELL NO to my suggestion to replacing with a Tundra. He bought another used Ford F150 from our neighbor. Not a month later, it had a rear seal leak. My parents neighbor bought a Ford F150 because he had to buy American and Toyota was shit. His truck was in the shop more than it was on the road. It eventually also had a rear seal leak too. America's No 1 selling truck (Ford) vs most reliable truck (Toyota). Take your pick.

Smart move, If you've ever had a turbo equipped vehicle and had the turbo go bad, its verrrrry expensive in a lot of cases. The F150 has two which is a major point of concern for me. I wonder how long a V6 with two turbos trying to make it do the work of a V8 will hold up over time.

Only other thing I have done is replaced the oil pan, but that is because I let someone else change my oil and they stripped the drain plug out. Other than that, that's it.

Thanks for the review man, I currently own a 1997 Toyota T100, and I've been looking at getting either a first gen Tundra or getting a second gen Tundra. Thanks to your video and seeing the market for the first gen Tundras, I'm pretty sold on the second gen Tundra. I've always appreciated Simplicity in pickup trucks especially Toyota trucks. I've always been the type of person for long-term vehicle use and not selling it within a year. That's why I've always chosen Toyota. Thanks for helping me make my decision when the time comes and my T100 breaks I'll be getting the second gen Tundra.

[@RyanKelley56]

Great no-nonsense review. I currently own a 2013 Tacoma w/ 122,000 miles and it’s a great, reliable truck but my only complaint is the truck does not have any “get up and go.” Before the Tacoma I owned a 2003 Tundra w/ the V8 and LOVED it. Unfortunately it was totaled in a wreck which is why I ended up purchasing the Tacoma, at the time I didn’t have a need for a full-size truck. Last May my family and I were in the market for a full-size pick up because we were planning on buying a travel trailer for camping and knew we needed a full-size pick up but I did not want to trade in my Tacoma yet. I ended it up purchasing a 2020 SR5 Crew Max Tundra after nearly pulling the trigger on a Ford F150. What it really came down to for me when making a decision was Toyotas’ reliability and durability. My wife and I keep vehicles for a very long time and I wanted a truck that was very reliable and hassle free. I do all the maintenance on our vehicles unless it is something very major and the reliability of the other truck makers was a dealbreaker for me. It been nearly a year since I purchased the Tundra, but the longer I own it, the more and more I am convinced that I made the right decision.

There is no other truck out there that that will hold up like that...and I drove the hell out of it; still it looks and runs great and a dealer still offered me $10,000 to trade in on my new truck...my Son is a proud young man. My new 1794 4x4 Tundra looks as nice and is as comfortable as any Ford, Dodge, GMC, or Chevy. It pulls my 10,250lb boat like there's nothing back there.

While I appreciate your attempt at a “long time owner “ review, 40,000 miles isn’t even close to being long enough. I will say that I have had a first generation Tundra, 2006, and I currently have a 2010 Tundra double cab TRD with a 5.7 and 209,000 kms on her. I bought it from the dealer brand new in 2009. Put in a new water pump a couple of years ago with a radiator and last year I replaced the brakes. This truck still has every bit of power as it did in 2009. I use it like a truck, I have had gravel, top soil, lumber and various concrete products in the box. I also had a sled deck on it up until a couple of years ago, put 2 800 Arctic cat sleds with “162 tracks, 550 pounds each on with just the stock suspension. It held up perfectly. I do all the maintenance on her and always use the best oil, Castrol synthetic. I have no plans to sell her, I pulled a travel trailer for many years with no problem. I would buy this truck again without any doubt. Thanks for your review.

My 2012 Ford F-150 Eco Boost lost a turbo while on vacation. It had 143,000 miles on it. The dealer did not have any in stock and they had done several since January. It had wonderful low end power for towing. They were going to have to ship one and I didn’t have the time to wait. We ended up walking next door and bought a used 2018 Toyota Tundra with 34,000 miles. It definitely is a little more louder, because it is towing in upper rpms. However, it feels strong and it tows super straight. It feels solid. We are not planning on purchasing another truck. Thanks for the video. Ram

I've owned Toyota 4x4s since 1993, starting with a V6 x-cab 4x4, then a '04 TRD Taco, followed by a '16 TRD, now in a '18 SR5 4x4. Generally, I buy a new one every 11-12 years, and get great resale, even with ~200K miles. I sold the '16, due to needing more toy hauling/towing capability, and since I mostly off-road MTBs, dirt bikes, and buggies these days, I doubt I'll ever go back to a smaller truck. My buddy had a '01 Tundra that he put over 500K on, and there are several million mile Tundras out there (including at least one here on the tube). I considered a TRD Tundra, but the lack of a locker led me to the SR5 4x4, with 6.5' bed. With Bilstein coilovers (~2" front level lift-works well with stock rear suspension) , wheels/tires, TRD exhaust and skid, I've been very happy with this truck for hauling toys all over the country for off road excursions, and saved some money over the TRD, while getting exactly what I wanted (except the rear locker). The new Tundra sounds like it will be impressive, but I have no intention of giving up the awesome 5.7 and it's sweet sounding TRD note. Is it perfect? No, but close. Gas mileage? Not great, but I have the 38 gallon tank, and a '20 86 Hakone to drive when I don't need to haul. Performance, simplicity, reliability, and resale...been working for me for 37 years, and counting...

I went and bought a brand new 2020 Tundra SR5 4wd Long Bed over anything else just due to the fact of how simple they are. I could have gotten a Work Truck package from any other company, cheaper but something drew me to the Toyota at the end of the day. I love old school simplicity and the Tundra SR5 NAILS it with just enough modern influence. It didn't ride as good as the Silverado or Ram, nowhere near the options of the F150 but I wanted a TRUCK. All these new trucks keep cramming all sorts of software, gadgets, buttons and other crap in them that people say they want, and never use. I work in wheels and tires, and have been getting to get my hands in 2020 trucks of every brand and I have run into many owners who have trucks with less than 5k miles on them that have had their trucks already fixed more than once. My girlfriends Dad has brand new 2020 F350 Dually Longbed 4x4 Lariat with the 6.7 Diesel, amazing and nice truck with less than 10kmiles, leaky sunroof, glitchy rear camera, a software issue that caused a permanent limp mode and needed a new brain, front end work that they can't seem to fix that keeps throwing the alignment and they had to replace the whole front end assembly, luckily all warrantied but all stuff that shouldn't have happened. You know what sucks about the Tundras? The cupholders there are loads of them, but they are all too big or too small for anything. Toyota doesn't change much and a lot of their stuff hasn't changed in a decade, and they don't want to and don't need to change it because at the end of the day, it will all still be working.

I switched to my winter tires - Firestone's Destination AT and am getting an average of 14.9MPG.

Not many Toyota's and although the AFM on the GMC's could be a big problem...so long as the owner either electronically or physically deleted it...the 5.3's/6.0's run forever. Even at that, I've seen many go high miles so long as the oil is changed regularly. Dodge is kinda in the same boat as GMC with their 5.7's and 6.4's.

2016 Tundra, I've heard a ton about the poor gas mileage with the Tundra. While Towing the mileage does not drastically drop. I have friends who purchased the F-150 Ecoboost and for the most part they get hosed when towing a load. We pull race car trailers all over the South and my Tundra stops less for fuel than the Fords, Nissan's, Dodges' or chevy's of the group. My Tundra has over 120,000 miles on it and for the most part only seen the repair shop for service. Oil Changes, tire rotations and general overall care. I'm on my second set of tires which were changed at 75,000 miles and second alternator at 90,000 miles. Most of these miles or lets say 1/2 have been while towing something. the Toyota tow center is great with a lot of useful information, I like the running tab on the gas usage from full to empty by mileage. The greatest advantage while towing is that 5.7 engine, WOW! Great Power! I have the Crew cab which has a ton of room . I opened the rear doors at the dealership and was floored at the room. Needless to say I purchased the truck without even a test drive, that came later. Heads up my last trucks were a F350 supercrew, 6.0 TD, Chevy 3500 6.5TD The truck drives just like it came of the show room floor. Not a lot of body noise or squeaks, no bad body sway. at 69 years young this will be my last truck purchase and it looks that I saved the best for the last. Thanks Toyota

@@TristanTris321GoT I have a 1998 Lexus LX470 with a little over 200K miles on the clock. Original starter and alternator. Recently replaced the ignition coils and a muffler. The reason I sold the 4Runner is because I didn't want both SUV. My son didn't want either one of those vehicle. I bought him a brand new Camry because he wanted it. The LX470 has never ever let me down even on the coldest Minnesota winter days, it'll start right up. Full time four wheel drive is fantastic on road and on ice.

Dararit Chao Toyota/Lexus still make great cars, can’t go wrong with a Camry. I’m hoping the new Gen Tundra has a better interior build quality but it seems to be a trend with all the cheap plastic trim these days. Minnesota.., brutal winters! 😊

my 2007 tundra has 285k miles right now and its still pulling like a beast!!!

Rock Warrior is the best looking one! Iove my 2003 Tundra Step Side. I love the Titan and have owned a million Nissan trucks. Hope to get another one at some point. Your perspective and info is efficient and fact filled, awesome!

[@BigRockMoto]

Thanks. I actually loved the older Titan as well. Too bad Nissan isn't doing better with the newer one.

2005 Tundra Doublecab 2WD 280,000 and running great. Has had shocks, drive shaft, ball joints, and timing belt. I expect at least another 300,000

[@user-id8ng9eq9h]

I was a Tundra owner for nearly 15 years but recently converted to for a Super Duty. No doubt would have stayed with Toyota if they made a heavy duty truck wit a diesel. I also wish they had a 6 3/4 bed with the crew cab. I need a crew cab and the 5.5 bed just isn't big enough.

[@BigRockMoto]

Good point on the bed/cab combo

[@mattd8411]

I agree 100 percent. I love my tundra but really needing to tow about 12k not sure if ill try it or trade for a 3/4.

[@totwallybaba]

284,000 on my 2008 Crewmax 4x4 Limited purchased new. Everything still works. Runs great. It has towed many dumptrailer loads at the limit of its capability over a 7 mile distance up and down hills. The paint on the roof and hood is gone. It has required an air induction system, a air conditioning condenser, a new sunroof, a right rear bearing replacement, a driveshaft and hanger replaced, and a water pump. It runs great. If it gets totalled and I survive, a used Tundra with lower miles would be my choice today rather than a gas guzzling twin turbo future nightmare.

[@creamcheesebagels913]

I’m saying 😂😂😂

[@borninthefla]

I was scrolling through the comments when I saw the trailer pop up. Thought I was the only one that caught that for a second. 🤣🤣🤣

[@Xainfinen]

I literally CTRL+F "small" when the picture showed up 🤣

[@randrowe9660]

Good review. I drove the 2011 Tundra and the 2011 Chevy Silverado 5.3 Z71 crew. Which I bought. 130,000 miles and towed my camper all over the US and Canada. Knock on wood but all I have had to do is oil changes and regular maintainance and tires. Totally reliable. (Oops, I did do the brakes once.). Not knocking Toyota...wish they would bring out an all electric PriusV.

[@ahkeen]

Wow for a 10 year old truck still look like new from the showroom.

[@mattsfirewoodvideos738]

I bought a 2010 5.7 double cab long box it had 92k on it I've had it for 3 months it just turned 97k yesterday and I have zero complaints and my truck is beautiful alot of other told me the same thing
