The previous generation of V8 vehicles have set an incredible standard of longevity to overcome. I have doubts the complexity of Dynamic Force engine plus turbo plus hybrid would ever match that.
Looks like a nice truck if you can afford it. My dad's 13' Tundra has 195,000 miles on it. He loves everything about it except the fact that it gets 14mpg
My dad 03 have almost 300k miles. I saw a 2016 for sale with 474k miles lolol.
Kirk, For those who need a common sense, full-size work truck but can survive with less than 400 hp, I hope Toyota comes back with an adequately powerful
yet highly efficient powertrain option. 🤔
I'd buy a Tundra with a NA V-6 with around 300 hp, like the domestics offer.
Something way cheaper, efficient and hopefully, reliable.
@@jimthumerzs2301 Exactly.
Great review!
Absolutely love the color ❤❤❤❤❤❤ beautiful truck 😊 I definitely miss the 🥺 V8 😔🪦💐 fantastic review 🤘🏾
I called it Tactical Camo...it's called Technical Camo actually! But which sounds better?!?!
I prefer Technical Camel.
Thanks for this interesting perspective comparing with the Sequoia and 4Runner. I'm curious how the adaptive cruise and (maybe) lane centering functioned? Some are great, some barely useable. How did Toyota do on this model?
S.O. and Terra are awesome ! Luv daily driving my 24 Pro !
Excellent
Id recognize Ave Maria everytime! perfect place for low speed test drives
$70k for this trim? Ouch... and that's not even the most expensive Tundra, either. I'd pick the SR5 trim, for the best value proposition.
With brake torque is the battery hybrid even working?
I really wanted this trim with my Lexus as a good daily and off road type of vehicle but it’s seems I might have to go for the platinum trim
I love my ‘24 Platinum!
What size wheels tires on this vehicle?
I believe the red stripe on the steering wheel is so you know where your wheels are completely center. "TRD Proness" as nothing to do with it.
Can you get a platinum and do the same thing
Solid pickup truck Toyota worth all your coins, sadly Mazda has no pickup trucks in North America thats lame.......
Cool truck, too expensive.
I do understand that with current inflation $70K does not have the same value it used to have in past but still, $70K for this Tundra is a kind of a lot. Few yrs ago this truck used to cost $35,000
Would those wheels fit on the Lexus LX600?
Probably 🤔
70k plus 15 or 20k markup for the ol Plastic Fantastic.
$70k is criminal for a truck, body on frame vehicle have the lowest manufacturing costs of all vehicle types.
Is that true? Why did they move to subframe unibody designs then? Safety reasons?
@@abes7181 Saw your reply just now. Only a few trucks on the market, afaik, are unibody: The Honda RidgeLine and the Ford Mav. Which isn't surprising, according to C&D there are 2 advantages to ladder frames: 1) tensile strength, good for towing 2) lower R&D costs. Essentially, ladder frame vehicles can tow more and are more rudimentary compared to unibody, which is good for workhorses like trucks.
Also 70,000 off road truck and no tow hooks
Is the back window behind the back seats automatic?
Yes it is.
@@lorenzooliver685 Thank you so much!!
I hope Toyota has worked on reliability.
(Edit: By that, I meant that I hope it got the small bugs worked out. I’ve been hearing small issues on the Tacoma and Tundra after going from V8 to turbocharged V6. Of course Toyota is still way ahead in reliability even after these small issues)
Lol
Where are they having issues with this truck? Wastegate only affected a limited amount of trucks. Backend torque on bolts was fixed before I got mine at the end of 22. So like what??? Maybe they should follow suit with GMC/Chevy and Ford for the insta bust into flames and transmission issues? No ty
@@JIPlatium Yes yes! My bad!😅
NEW TUNDRA & SEQUOIA 😎👍
Trd sport sr5 fully loaded $56,000 vs trd pro for 71,000+ ADM which is your choice!!! To me sr5 sport is a no Brainer for me. Is the hybrid actually worth it Kirk??
Hybrid is not worth it.
With only an increased of 6mpg with Hybrid, it just isn't worth it.
Why is the trd pro ride so much better. Is the only difference the fox shocks
The TRD Pro should be based off the Platinum/1794!
Yup - Wish it had a few more features especially in the backseat
Looks nice. But, the interior feels incredibly cheap. For $70k, it's a hard pass IMO. The powertrain had a bunch of teething issues from the onset, despite coming from Toyota. A complicated hybrid powertrain will only be a detriment to it down the road. For the cost, you'd have to be foolish or a brand loyalist to get this over any of the Big 3 offerings.
Ram is lucky because they haven't had a refresh, but not problem free. Ford GMC/Chevy have quite a few issues, top being transmission and the amazing bust into flames feature. Sure, but let's go with that 😂
Yeah, the color isn't coming across very well - not a fan of the color from what I can see, but perhaps I'd change my mind in person.
The types of people I see driving these tundras are office workers cosplaying as construction workers and Toyota salesmen.
I live the country and have a mini-farm, hat and boots. Haul hay, ATVs and UTVs , and a camper. Also work remote in cybersecurity. Need to add that to your list 😂
@@JIPlatium You have the best of both worlds
18 - 22 mpg on a daily driver?
no big deal when you have $70k for this truck.
My GS 350 averages 20 to 21. It’s my daily by it’s also 7 years old
I may have missed it but how do you feel about the turning radius? I here it's much worse than the previous generation.
It's terrible. It's like driving a barge in tight spots
@@KirkKreifels That sucks! My 2013 has a great turning radius for its size. Wish the had kept it the same.
Kirk if TRD stands for turd why would I want to be seen that way by the aliens in the balloons being shot down?
Better than the upcoming Taco Turd Pro?
It looks nice, but that hybrid system is completely unnecessary for Tundra. Fuel economy is the same as twin turbo V6 and also towing.
I’d pick the f150 powerboost. That inverter / generator it has is a game changer and the mpg is a lot better
Nobody buys a truck for fuel economy 💀
@@mattmekhaeil the f150 hybrid gets 27mpg mixed. That’s a game changer for its size. The smaller maverick gets 40mpg
@@naveenthemachine nobody will hit 27mpg. People will tow things and will never hit even close to that. Sure good number for full size trucks but that's a pipe dream. For a compact hybrid truck that's impressive
If a vehicle cant be driven everyday then why buy it, unless it is for specific purpose like heavy towing.
expensive if you dont have 70k.go for ford dash auto 😅😅😅
Built cheap but 70k 😄😄😄
Kirk, no all-wheel-drive on this truck.
4*4 get over it
Hybrid system seems completely useless in my opinion. No major advantage in fuel economy and no advantage in towing. What’s the point? Fast acceleration? Why buy a truck for that? Lol
It also helps Toyota reduce emissions for their fleet.
@@KirkKreifels People DO CARE ABOUT PERFORMANCE .OBVIOUSLY WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A TRUCK HERE NOT A MID SIZE CAMRY .👍
Too expensive.
70,000$ for a rattling shaky dash? What happened to quality control Toyota?
They depend on the name to carry them now a days
8k miles on mine, no rattles... Thanks for playing but you loose 😂
Its a beautiful truck, but daily driver…unless your work pays for your gas I don’t think so…
$70000 plastic interior wtf TOYOTA
No tow hooks as if it won’t need them 😅 , bad turning radius , useless bed outlet that can barely power a hair dryer , mismatched headliner even though in the other models it’s black and no 4 Auto .
Turning radius is brutal here! That's why I use the 360 camera all the time
Super fugly. Toyota is really making some horrible looking vehicles now.
Hopefully the new CEO fixes all the problems.
Quality disaster
Those of you who think Toyotas high quality should see this. Interior rattles and subpar interior quality for 70k!?
This shows Toyota quality isn’t any better than other brands so you may as well go with the far superior brands
so does that mean you aren't driving your mom's Camry anymore?
2nd year of a brand new truck !!
And u are raising objections on the entire Toyota company😂 !!
Come on get some life naveen !!
Ur talks show that all the Toyotas are like kia/hyundai ( aka crap ) !!
Toyota is the flag bearer of quality !!
Superior Brands? 😂. GMC/Chevy and Ford's auto bust into flames feature?? GMC/Chevy and Ford fighting class action lawsuits for transmission failures? Um okay 😂🤣😂
Just picked up my Rav4 Ltd Hybrid. Not one squeak or rattle. I'm sure its quieter than your mom's Camry. After 200 miles...47 mpg !!!! woo hoo!
I wish everyone would stop trying to convince everyone else that the new Tundra is great. It’s really not…. Lol it’s one of the worst full size trucks right now
The car is still ugly looking. It has the most unattractive front end of any current automobile.
it's a truck, all trucks are ugly
@@mikej238 just the Tundra.
@@bngr_bngr and your 👧 friend
Trucks already outdated and let me tell you something. All they had to do was do the V8 with two turbos and a 10-speed
