Toyota Tundra TRD Pro is My Favorite Tundra | Still Has Some Issues Though

- Опубликовано: 9 июл 2024
- The New Toyota Tundra TRD Pro is my favorite trim of the new Toyota Tundra. After driving all models in a recent event including the Capstone, I think this one rides the best and delivers the best package.
In this video we'll take a look at the Tundra TRD Pro. I'll share with you why I think this is the halo model of tundra line up and not the capstone.

Appreciate the new Tundra deep-dive videos - thank you! I have a 2023 1794 and LOVE it!
As always an excellent full review including the chassis. Hope your beautiful new shop is doing well. Wishing you and yours all the best during the holiday season.
This is probably one of the best simple video about the new Toyota Tundra TRD Pro. I totally agree on the good and bad things that were pointed out.
Always love your videos AMD! And it was nice to catch up with you last week! I love my Tundra TRD Pro for many reasons you pointed out, but still can't believe the "reverse D" defect I had on the hood emblem. It's definitely a solid truck and after driving the Ford F-150 and the Chevy Silverado this week side by side with the Tundra, it seems Toyota did its homework in coming up with a "balanced" truck that hits the sweet spot.
Now come on, you can't leave us hanging on the "reverse D" defect...???
@@ScrewThisGlueThat He has a couple of videos on it. The D in TRD on the hood badging was backwards. Ended up getting it fixed.
@@ScrewThisGlueThat Please watch my explanation here: ruclips.net/video/-2uFENJTt3Q/видео.html
What a great overhaul review. Thank you. Even watched it twice.
Your narration and humor are always great.
Great review 👍You really know your stuff and I like the fact that you are honest.
TeXtMe DiReCtLy 📊📊,
Thanks for your insights. Beautiful truck
Thank you for the videos AMD. These trucks have issues and Toyota has really dropped the ball on quality control. I picked up my 2023 Platinum last week. It spent 4 out of the 8 days I had it at the dealership. Build date was 11/22. When I drove it home from the dealership I felt the suspension bottom out twice. Turns out that the air suspension was out of spec and it was not adjusted correctly from the factory per the dealership. They verified and performed a TSB for it. That fixed the issue. Then my A Pillar began to rattle incessantly. The dealer found that the clips were broken inside the A Pillar. The dealer put foam inside it because toyota told them they didn’t have the clips available to fix it due to shortages. The rattling continued. Then my center console got worse. They rattle straight out of the factory and it got worse in the 8 days I owned it. The dealer put felt inside. It helped by about 50%. On the way home from the dealership service the drivers side window started to whistle bad. I rolled it up and down many times and it wouldn’t go away. The next day I drove for about 2 hours and the front seats have a horizontal support bar positioned way too far back towards the seat back. If your anatomy isn’t just right, you’ll be sitting on a thinly padded bar. The seats are poorly designed with minimal padding. That was the last straw and I took a hit and sold it back to the dealer and lost a couple grand in the taxes I paid. Well worth getting rid of it. Toyota may get this right in a few years but I’d highly recommend staying away from this truck right now. We own a newer highlander and a Venza and they’re great. So im not a toyota hater. And I owned a 2004 tundra for 15 trouble free years waiting for this new generation. Very disappointing.
Wow that’s heart breaking and very upsetting ! I think you likely did the right thing getting rid of that truck sounds like possibly a lemon to me. I also own 2 Toyota products 2018 tundra and 2015 rx450 h Lexus and sold my 2006 tacoma and love them all with very little issues. I think Toyota will get their act together ,it may just take a couple years to get the bugs out! If they don’t get their act together people will shop elsewhere. I buy Toyota because of their reliability, and keep it simple style ,and will continue to do so until they stop being reliable, then I’m done!
Very unusual i have a 22 pro no rattles wind noise whats so ever and no problem with the seats also just a great truck with now 5 k in miles on it milage is getting better every day with winter gas mix should be much better with summer blind next year
@@philipkolatis3611 not that unusual. Glad you got a good one. Reports of these issues are all over the place and the dealers are starting to hear about it. Being a long time toyota owner I’m spoiled with good quality vehicles.
What happens when as a company, you take a $39000 vehicle and tack on $3000 worth of silly add-ons and charge $64000 for it. It compares to something from maybe 5 years ago which would have been criticized for cheapness even at $29000.
Rattles seem to be a problem at Toyota now. I bought a 21 Highlander for my wife. We wanted a well built, quality suv. Big disappointment
AMD Another great video on the Tundra Trd Pro. You have to own or drive one of these trucks to appreciate how they drive and the quality that Toyota has put in them and the thought process that goes into designing these trucks. I appreciate your knowledge and the wisdom that you put in creating these videos for us - keep them coming as they are a gold mine. Merry Christmas and happy holidays.
Look at their prices how expensive they got they just like every other car manufacturer now there's not a deal on the price
Loved this review. This guy speaks to me.
I love your videos. Keep it up!
Great Video. I am a new subscriber as I just found your channel and I'm enjoying your videos.
I have a 2008 Tundra V8 4.7 I bought new and absolutely love it with just about 180,000 on it. I love the way the new Tundras look but without that V8 option I will not buy another as I feel pickup trucks of .5 ton or higher really need that bigger engine.
Also I am not sold on anything Hybrid, it has its goods but also bads. Keep the Hybrid in the F1 cars and off the streets lol.
Anyway thank you for sharing and I look forward to watching more!
Stay safe and well!
Your videos are very refreshing and stand out from the typical sells guy/ amateur owner videos.
I just haven’t warmed up to these new Tundra’s! From the total lack of recovery hooks on their “ Off Road” models to the wastegate issues on the turbo’s plus the fact that many 5.7 V8’s have gone over a million miles. Talk to me about this truck when one reaches one million miles & maybe I’ll be a believer? I’ve seen many videos on RUclips of these trucks going off road & literally were falling apart ! 😂
I totally agree with you I have the older version and they are rocksolid I don’t like this new version tundra at all.
@@stevenlefebvre2991 I don't like this one either. Our 2020 TRD feels much better and natural. Nobody knows how long these turbo engines and hybrid systems are going to tolerate the constant towing. It didn't improve any MPG rates either.
No v6 turbo is gonna be stronger then a v8. V6 truck it’s not a factory choice, it’s the government choice. The more technology it’s on added to a vehicle the more parts are going to fail. If you drive like grandpa a v6 will give you better mpg then a v8 for sure, but if you are towing the v8 will be better. I used to have a 08 tundra and the mpg was horrible even driving like a grandpa So the problem it’s the government and technology. 🤷🏻♂️
@@pelecho hi Antonio. I also love the V8 tundra. I have a 1917 and a 2021 and the 21 model gets pretty good mileage around 19 on the highway and 16 around town so that’s not too bad for a V-8. And I don’t drive like a grandpa. Even when I’m doing 90 miles an hour on the highway it’s still gets about 17 miles per gallon. There’s nothing wrong with that. The V6 turbo kick in at that mile Per hour and you get horrible mileage. I love my V-8 tundras.
You all know moving to twin turbo was not toyta? All the auto makers are under extreme pressure to get better gas milage, lower emissions etc... Even it means throwing common sense out the window... Plenty of v8 tundras out there! I would be super super hesitate being a new power train
Outstanding overview. Really appreciate your personal thoughts & observations regarding the TRD Pro. Thank you!
Thanks for helping me make up my mind
TRD pro it is!
I made my decision to get the pro because of you. Thank you.
They used to say Toyota in the front pre 1991. Then the Toyota logo. I like that Toyota letters are coming back
TeXtMe DiReCtLy 📊📊
I'm the lucky owner of a 2023 Solar Octane Tundra TRD Pro (purchased at MSRP, score!). I test drove a Capstone prior to buying mine. 2 things I wish it had: heated/cooled rear seats for the kiddos, and the mood lighting. Otherwise...amazing vehicle.
Fair and honest. All the points brought up are valid
This man is the real deal. Thank you!!
Great review! This exact truck is what I’m saving for! I love the white exterior and the red interior. I NEED it 😂
Great video! Love your channel. In your opinion, do you think the air dam has any impact on how the vehicle drives at higher speeds?
I like how TRD pro badging is so subtle
In line with the understated nature of this monster truck 🤣
Outstanding video!
Great review. They need to put 12v outlets above the rear view mirror (upper console) for dash cams and radar detectors. That would clean up the cords running down to the dash.
AMD...Went to my local Toyota dealer this morning. They said I should replace the spark plugs on my 2014 Avalon. Price: $269.00!! Why so expense, do they have to remove the engine! (joke). Anyway, after they checked my prior service, they said... no they were replaced at 115,000. Bottom line, my Avalon has 150,247 miles... still no rec's from the dealer for any work to be done. Even my brakes are fine... no prior work ever done!
Thank you again for your RUclips videos!
I was waiting for this review.
Now I can buy it confidently.
I’d love to hear what you think of the upcoming Prius!! Great video, I just can’t get in this new Tundra
Another great video.
Dream truck but man the prices are ridiculous even without the dealer mark ups.
I'm cheap so I would rather get a used V8 Tundra
I went with an 2023 SR5 No issues so far. I'm not a fan of the red interior, but to each their own.
My 2023 sr5 is definitely getting that grill
I absolutely love Toyota styling. I like all the models.
TeXtMe DiReCtLy 📊📊
Toyota's concession to the half ton segment. Dropping
the V8 is their biggest mistake for full-size trucks IMO.
I have the TRDpro in Lunar gray with Red interior. Soooo love the truck!
Best Toyota channel EVER!
Thanks for another Great video about a Great TRUCK, Yes haters I called it a TRUCK. I got my new 22 Tundra TRUCK last month and I am super thrilled with everything about it. I know it will give me 10 years of great service and the next owner many many more.
Great video as always. Yesterday, in the Consumer Reports magazine, which normally is quite favorable to Toyota's products, I noted that they listed the Tundra as a 'don't buy' because of poor reliability issues. If so, I think that these are just assembly glitches for the new model and will be resolved by Toyota.
It was definitely a rough launch, like the 2016 Tacoma. Good news is the issues are under warranty.
@TheMrDudiness Great comment. Unfortunately Toyota has fallen upon its old formula, using a hybrid more as a poor substitute for a super charger rather than for fuel saving. It would have been better if they used a system similar to the Rav-4 Prime that used the battery to give a powerful boost, and allow electric only operation for a few miles. This could have been done in place of a turbo, and the longevity of the V-6 might’ve been legendary. The turbo V-6 by the way was one of worst trouble spots mentioned by CU.
@@andybub45 it doesn't look like they are.
ruclips.net/video/k76xRY6mrF4/видео.html
@@ronkemperful … a hybrid that is a gas guzzler. No thanks.
I'm surprised people still give Consumer Reports a dime of their money - they're a shell of their former self for how unreliable they have become, and charging people out of the wazoo for diminishing information? No thanks.
Beautiful Truck!
Great video. I wanted a TRD Tundra pro but the markups were ridiculous. So I ended up with a 2022 Tundra Platinum loving the truck tho
You made a mistake, you’re truck will have quality issues !
@@timcunningham6932 doubt it this tundra will still out last any truck the big 3 puts out . GM with lifters 8spd auto issues , Ford eco trash 🗑️ still having cam phasers issues , having to replace the timing sets before 150k or a 10speed auto that shudder you out the driver seat. And for Ram with electric issues, hemi’s also having lifers problems . Yea I’ll stay with Toyota 😄
@oliverramclam6009 I don't think it will outlast the big 3. The past generation yes but not this one. Reliability rates are already down and keep dropping. It's not more reliable than the Ford or GM trucks anymore. Sad to see cause I'm a Togota fan
I love my '16 TRD Pro Tundo. Don't imagine i'd ever get a new one at the prices they are fetching now unfortunately.
Same here. 7 years later and still no problems. I'm keeping it for forever.
Another Great Video AMD ! I was under the impression that Toyota reserves the Block TOYOTA lettering on the grill of only the toughest and top model that’s available for that production year .. thought I read that somewhere .. is that a new lift you have the Tundra on ?
Not in the market for a truck but listened to this wonderful review. I’m more of a Sequioa guy. And awaiting your review of the suv version of the Tundra.
@The Hemwick Hag so well put.
Like the truck; but, the 3 Amber lights on the top of the grill sure mimic the FORD Raptor... in my opinion can do without; yet, the integrated light bar is definitely welcomed.
Thanks for another great thorough intro/review video!!
Those amber lights are mandatory for vehicles that are a certain width. It's a federal guideline that all manufacturers have to follow.
What about mechanical parts for example, the engine, drive train, etc. Longevity reliability etc....
At the start i give 👍becouse this car looks amazing. I never seen in my country.
I could without any of the Red in the Cab Part of this Truck..😎
The red interior is optional. All black is the other option.
Enjoy watching your videos
For the money, I am glad I bought the earlier model. Thanks for the TRD PRO rundown!
Love the TRD pro my dream truck is a sequoia TRD pro white with the red leather interior and the beefy roof rack
Great video. Nice truck.
TeXtMe DiReCtLy 📊📊,
Good review i enjoyed watching, for anyone wondering the engine noise can be turned off with certain apps and obd scanners that run around 40 bucks.... think its called carista or something.
Maybe in my next life, I'll be able to afford something this nice.
Great video
I just traded my 22 TRD PRO for a 23 Platinum Hybrid. Couldn't be happier. My truck is a pavement princess. My platinum is more than capable of tackling the occasional dirt road I go on in MUCH more comfort. Both trucks are about the same price. I'm 43 not 25. Give me creature comforts over fox shocks I'll never use any day! :D
@Car Care Nut if you have no intentions of going off road with the truck ( I am 67) is this still the trim you would recommend? Also, I cannot afford a Capstone.
Thank you for all you do. I have a 2020 TRD Pro 4runner and the fit/finish is perfect! Have you heard any rumors of the Land Cruiser coming back to the U.S.?
Automotive Press has a video on this subject. The only thing is that he thinks it will based on the Prada platform.
Well, its made in Japan instead of mmurrican quality workmanship..
@@caugustedupin7308 Yes, but any and everything is pure speculation at this point. I suspect it could go either way
Question would you consider the Trail Hunter Tacoma over the Tundra Pro?
Great and top notch video. I got one last month. Only concern I have is whether or not the twin turbos will blow in the near future.
Great vedio, AMD. Do you know what is the oil drain plug torque spec for corolla cross 2022?
I live up North Minnesota, please make some video for TRD PRO how to warm up in mornings, how to efficiently use this new system because I watched your other video and it’s not 100% typical hybrid. Thanks a lot.
Agreed re the cheap parts, very frustrating considering the price point.
I Love your sarcasms and irony because you got a point
Our father has a 2020 Tundra TRD. It is incredibly good. But we will never buy this new generation. No V8, two turbos and/or hybrid batteries to worry about after 200K-300K. Nobody knows how constant towing will treat those new technologies in 4-5 years. The cost cuts in the 2022 are also very noticeable. The famous interior rattles and squeaks reflect the cheap plastics you have shown. I have been very disappointed with Toyota quality ever since most of their 2018 models.
I agree 100 percent ..my dad has owned a few gens. He bought a 2021 5.7 and said I'll die with this truck because the new ones are trash.
It’s why you don’t by the first year. They will fix it and the truck will be more efficient than the older ones.
No they won’t fix it. It is engrained in today’s DNA of Toyota. Been buying Toyota’s since ‘96 up to ‘17. I have seen the interior materials quality, fit and finish slowly go down hill over the years. The last Toyota I bought was ‘17 Tacoma. I would much rather buy well maintained used Toyota than a new one.
The reason used Toyota’s hold their value is nobody who wants quality will buy the new crap.
Never say never………
I have a 2019 Tundra that is solid as a rock, and a 2022 N450h+ that is super well built with very good quality interior materials. The wife has a 2019 R350 and same thing….Toyota is having issues with the current Tundra, but they will fix it with time, they always do.
Have the same issue with the dash corner by the vent. I thought it was just mine. I also have that window trim issue. I have the limited trdoffroad. I want the trd pro but really looking forward to the trailhunter model.
Thank you again for your reviews and honesty.
I agree with the arm rest on the doors. Fantastic idea. I wish the analog cluster was more up to date. Especially would like the boost gauge.
Did any of the models you drove have squeaking brakes?

“If you don’t know what TRD pro is we have problems”😂
As usual another great informative video AMD ! I have one coming in March of 23. It will be MGM in color. The 22 1794 Tundra TRD OR I-Force MGM I have now is a terrific truck as well, absolutely no problems.
The window flat platform to rest your arm is from an FJ cruiser. I use it daily.

Can you do a video talking about the 4wd system. I’m curious as to how it works, is it an open differential like prior generations. Currently trying to decide if it’s worth switching my gen2 sequoia for the new 1 but I’m hearing that it can’t be driven in 4wd like the gen 2.
It is a sexy looking truck for sure. Looks awesome. I still think I will hold on to my 2017 tundra with a 5.7 and my 2006 with 4.7L. All electrical crap and sensors and batteries are not gonna be cheap to replace after warranty is out. And working on hybrid system is not something backyard mechanic should mess with. These are still awesome trucks hands down
100% man. One of my previous cars was a 2007 Camry LE hybrid. Needed a battery replacement at 197K miles. That was a $7K job from the cheapest mechanic I found. I was lucky to re-sell it for $2500 and buy a 2008 SE with a dealer-fixed 2.4L engine without the oil burning issue. That 2008 still drives like new at 210K and 14 years later. 0 issues.
I'd love one of those 1st gen Tundra's with the 4.7L. I think they are a perfect size.
Question though, why do you have both a 1st gen and 2nd gen Tundra?
You don’t think your 2016 has sensors and electrical crap? 😂🤣. You know hybrids are utterly reliable right?
@@flight2k5They are reliable but include a heavy and polluting battery that costs more than replacing an entire engine. The regenerative hybrid tech is also more expensive to diagnose and repair than average mechanical components.
@@andrewgus8763 uh no it doesn’t 😂🤣
Thank you so much for your video
Here in dubai we don't have the tundra at toyota dealer but most export it from Canada and USA ( brand new)
We have the Toyota hilux 4 cylinder or v6 and we the most reliable truck ever made the land cruiser pick up 🌹🌹
The poetry at the end 🧐
Thank you AMD! I really enjoy watching your videos.
I just bought a 2023 Tundra trd pro 6 weeks ago. I’m trying to figure out what gasoline I should be using in this truck. 87, 89, or 91 octane? Any advice? I live in Southern California. I drive 10,000 miles a year. I am not towing anything… yet. Thank you again!
I love your videos. Showing good and bad things about the cars 😅
Nice review...
TeXtMe DiReCtLy 📊📊.
I got a third-gen SR5 with the TRD Off-Road premium package and some other bits...it's the best of both worlds and no hybrid, moonroof or gaudy Pro red trim. However, I had a second-gen SR5 and there were many things about the interior that seemed better than the new trucks. Regardless, It's a far better ride and the improved torque is noticeable. The over-engineering of the rear suspension is impressive.
Just few things that were poorly executed:
1. No tow hooks
2. No bed step on bumper.
3. Subscription based maps and remote starter.
4. Moved cruise control on to steering wheel.
5. No mechanical linkage for tailgate operation.
6. Wireless phone charger too far away.
7. No front differential lock, as Chevrolet now has.
8. Almost forgot, reliably issues already.
*edit* 9. Was reminded about no V8 option. (Was the entire reason I purchased a 2021 Tundra)
And ...yes our 2021 4runner TRD Off Road makes use of the Rear Locker regularly.
You can get tow hooks 😂🤣. Who cares about a front locker. 99.99% of people don’t even need a rear locker. All trucks have teething issues when they first come out. Don’t be a cuck
@@wangwang2003 yea the f150 doesn’t get crazy better gas mileage. Who cares about the app. Fords are garbage.
9. Interior plastic, Interior plastic, Interior plastic
10. Fake leather
11. Battery under back seat means no under seat storage
No V8
No manual transmission
@@jw8578 🤣🙄 what doesn’t have interior plastic. It’s not fake leather. Do you have sand in your clit?
I must have missed your presentation of one of the most important must-have features of any off-road truck, the front tow hooks.
I wanted a Tundra for years; what's not to like about Toyota reliability, and full size truck capabilities? The issue is that I can not bring myself to pay the asking price for trucks for one; nor can I abide this move to turbo V6's as opposed to V8's. They are being marketed as equal power with more fuel efficiency, but the numbers I see don't bear that out. My V6 mini van get approximately the same gas mileage as my 6.2L LS powered car, and with that I get more torque and horsepower. The Tundra has been plagued with issues with the turbo since it was released; that in combination with "supply chain issues" and parts shortages means that you could pay upwards of 60 to 70, or even close 80k for a truck that may or may not be on the road long before a long down time. I get the warranty argument but down time means you're paying monthly payments and interest on a vehicle you can't even drive. I have a great friend that is as big a Toyota fan as I am and is so mad that he bought this truck. He paid about 68k, and put less than 5k miles on it before the turbo issue reared it's head and grounded him for 7 months. They supposedly had to remove the cab to get to the turbos and do the repair, and this was after months of waiting for parts. Part of the issues is this rush to push the green and renewable energy movement forward at a greater cost to the consumer. I am all for renewable energy and reduction of green house gases and pollution, but when the technology is ready and completely viable.
The green activists don't care one bit whether things are ready for prime time or not. They would just as soon you not have your own vehicle anyway and instead take public transportation. We need to resist these earth worshipping extremists
Just go buy a battery truck.
My F150 ecoboost has great power, but fuel economy’s not any better than a V8 in the real world. I’m sure it’s the same here
You need to stop exaggerating on the turbo problems since the wastegate was a small issue and it's already been fixed. You either go EV or Turbo, it's up to you to decide since Toyota is still trying to save combustion engine and all you do is complain.
@@jasonthach44
😂
Did it bother you when someone says something about Toyota?
What he said it is true and it takes a while to get parts since Toyota has to replace the turbo because of the waste gate issues, the hot fix for it is an update which does not fix it but prevents it from happening while you have warranty, another smart move from Toyota 👍
If this came with the V8 option still I would have considered it
Obviously you haven’t test driven this new turbo V6 truck. I still have my old 5.7 from 2008 but will be gifting it to my father. This new Tundra will do well.
I originally wanted the TRD PRO but could not find one. I ended up with the Capstone and love it. 99% of my driving is Highway so I like the comfort.
We purchased the new 1794 Edition w/o TRD. We did this because it tows better than the TRD version. This is due to the adjustable load leveling suspension option.
We test drove a GMC Sierra Denali with the 6.2L and a Ford F150 w/ 3.5 Ecoboost. The Tundra was more comfortable to drive and ride as a passenger.
Our Tundra mileage has been decent. 17 MPG mixed, 22 straight highway. 16 MPG towing 6500 lbs over elevations of 500’ to 2,000’.
We kept our 2003 Tundra SR5 “sport” with 230,000 miles for farm use.
@@markf8256 I wanted the adjustable load leveling option, but could not find it in the wind chill pearl color. I have a black 1794 TRD off-road arriving mid January. I’ll buy that one for my daughter and son-in-law.
LAND CRUISER question Toyota is unable to repair our 2014 (purchased new) intermittent wipers. They work while stopped in traffic but stop working while moving. Toyota pretty much gave up. Any ideas. Love your videos been a subscriber forever. Love your new shop too looks super nice You deserve success with all your hard work thanks
Hopefully you can do a video on the Camry Hybrid. That would be interesting.
You showing the poor fit and finish of this truck is why I watch your channel. I noticed it twice with two separate tundras I saw at the dealer waiting for my Toyota care service (which btw is a whole mother story. The tech put 4.9 quarts in my 1.8 which calls for 4.4. The 2.0 takes 4.9) most channels floss over the troubled things.
One of those 4 cylinder engines are very prone to oil overfilling. It damages one of the emission devices, or EGR valve? I forget the specifics. Expensive repair and wty won't cover unless you can prove a Toyota tech made the mistake. Read it here on You Tube in last 4 mo or so. Can't remember the channel but it's the guy that always teaches how much effect slanted driveways have on checking oil level. Also about not checking oil level cold due to heated volume expansion. CCN does this particular comment too. I wonder if it was CCN that did the piece on overfilling too..just can't remember. The takeaway though is to drain off overage as soon as you discover it. Definitely don't wait for 'next' oil change.
@@user-3tf67bk46u Yeah the 1.8 is fine. Not overfilled enough to do anything. Oil came out fine no foam or bubbles etc. still shows incompetence. Only reason I get it done at the dealer is because it’s free for the first two years. They do 10k mile oil changes but that’s absurd so I do one between them doing one because 5k is enough for my cars.
@@pryme2013 👍 Ya, you're wise to do the one at 5k. I read this a lot on here, owner's asking the dealer, you sure that's often enough? And the dealers encouraging them to not worry. It's because they KNOW the issues won't surface till after the wty is up.
@@user-3tf67bk46u Absolutely. It’s crazy. That’s why I don’t like to buy used and would for sure not buy a lease return. A vehicle is expensive. And for a full synthetic change with good filter it only costs me about 30 dollars to change the corollas oil.
Hi Ahmed! I really enjoy watching all your videos and I've learned alot. And if there's one thing I have learned is about the importance of checking and changing my oil. It's #1. I have a 2018 Tacoma and we all know where and how that oil filter service is done. And the Tacoma TRD Skid Plate has a door to access the oil filter. So, I wondered why you didn't show the location of the oil filter on the Tundra when I noticed the Tundra TRD Skid Plate does not appear to have the same door. Also, you didn't show us the Engine Compartment. (Always love to see the engine). And too, you show us the ginormous fuel tank but, what is the capacity? Maybe a "tech quickie" video to supplement?
Keep your truck the new tundra’s are junk
AMD, Did you borrow this TRD Pro from David at Automotive Press? 😉 You focused on the T-O-Y-O-T-A printed on the front grille and dash. On a white pickup like this, I think the classic company 'signature' is the word TOYOTA written in red letters across the tailgate. 🤩 As a truck, my only real concern with the Tundra is the shrunken interior which is a very common theme in every Toyota that has come along in the last 5 years.
I couldn't imagine off-roading in a nice new truck like that. To me, I'd want an older truck so I wouldn't have to worry about messing it up. I don't like the camo in black trim either.
TeXtMe DiReCtLy 📊📊,
Good morning, AMD. I have a question. On my 2007 Toyota Camry LE, the shop where I took my car to get my new tires installed said my lower control arms need to be replaced, which I did confirm so my question is since I'm going to be replacing anything else I should replace since I'm there like ball joints or something? Would I have to take my car back to get realignment? Thanks
Having my truck lie to me by playing v8 noise everytime I drive it sounds terrible.
That’s pretty Cool 😎

I PERSONALLY love "Tacos" better. I jst like the look. Sayn this, I agree w/TRD version, dont like chrome on trucks. If I WANTED a truck, price is way out of MY pocket book. I guess the black door handles is like the Toyota's nite shades. Great analysis! 👍🇺🇸
Burritos are better than tacos. I do enjoy a good taco salad though.
I bought a 2023 Tundra SR5 TRD off road package. Dealer and toyota rep told me that the payload on mine is 1819 pounds, however the sticker on the door jamb specify 1395 pounds. Can u please help me understand why the number on the sticker is so low. ?
what's your thoughts on the 22+ powertrain reliability? I'm about a year out from purchasing and considering the 22+ but would like to know common issues (and engine seize)
Large Toyota lettering reminds me of Tonka. I’d paint the front bumper body color because it makes the grill look too large 😊
2 things that are really obvious and a big negative, 1.) MPG, I expected so much better being a 10spd, V6 engine or even the hybrid engine is really a disappointment. 2.) Price just not a $70K truck, or what I expect a 70k truck to be.
AMD this is what I would love to see , a review on the f150 hybrid and after the full review then a one and on comparison against tundra hybrid, I'm interested in the which hybrid system to go with because I'm looking to buy one but not sure which to go with
Ok, I’ve watched many hours of your videos, they are excellent and I have learned a lot 😊. Now i have a serious question and want some advice: I have purchased a new 2024 Tundra SR5 TRD off road crew cab. I have owned many Toyotas and all have been great, that said, I’m worried about this new twin turbo V6, and I want to keep my truck for a long time. I did NOT buy an extended warranty, but after watching a lot of RUclips videos and forums, I’m doubting my decision. Do you recommend buying an extended warranty for these trucks? I have the non-hybrid engine, and thought by buying it I would be safer long term since there is less to go wrong. However, reports are the non-hybrid models are actually having more issues than hybrid, but not sure that’s true. Would you spend $2,500 for an extended warranty to protect a Gen 3 Tundra to 7yrs/100k miles through a dealer? I change my own oil, at 3-4K miles, and will at the dealer for 10k services, and will do all scheduled maintenance early, but even so do you think it’s worth having an extended warranty for this platform? I’m not rich, and $2,500 is a grip of money, but my local dealer will allow me to
Finance the warranty at 0% interest for a couple years. What are your thoughts?? PLEASE HELP 😊
Good job
Ford boss me recommended me to you. I’m having intermittent strange startup sounds in my 2018 Tundra. I took it to a dealer for a battery service and they refused based on it meeting specs. The battery meter doesn’t waiver and I’m thinking it’s the ignition system. If I need a starter what should the labor cost? What is your opinion on what the problem may be since you have never seen my truck?
Also one time, 2 years ago my son over cranked the engine after start.
Thank you if you find the time to respond.
