      Is Toyota giving up its reputation? Maybe. I don't have any evidence of that - and I've had numerous Toyotas over the years and currently have two - but there are no options No matter how imperfect it (Toyota) may be, others are a hell of a lot worse.

      ​@@renaldojason Sure, but those set the gold standard. I'd bet the truck itself that its resale value in the short term is as good (or bad) as that of RAM, Ford, GM, Chevy. That is of course if you're talking the SR5 trim - TRD Pro is another story.

    I have the '23 base model sr crew max 4x4. Had a 91 pickup 4x4 that was stolen. This the need for a new truck. I like my tundra. I'm getting 23-25 mpg currently that is a mix of some minor slow downs through towns(35mph) that cause me to need to slow down then accelerate. The engine is the low output engine but I've had no issues with torque in all grades of incline. I don't tow anything. I simply wanted a truck for daily commute to haul the kids and 4x4 if needed in inclimate weather. This upcoming winter shall let me know how it will do. But so far I've had no issues. My complaint is the lack of rubber lining in the storage areas and the odd location of the 12v ac plug. On the top of the dash so cords hang down over the infotainment center display is just wrong. As for remote start. Simply press the lock button 3 times(you must hold on the 3rd press) and the truck will start. They just don't advertise this feature. But it works. Also my truck wasn't issued with to sets of keys due to the chip shortage. So I am waiting for the 2nd set to be available. Supposedly they are 3 to 6 months behind. I like Toyota plain and simple. I am hoping that the issues with the 22 models have been worked out for the 23 because I plan to own mine for a long time.

    • @ComputerStuff
      @ComputerStuff  Год назад

      Some issues have been resolved from '22 in '23. Mainly with Turbos. Remote start on Toyotas is a pain in the ass. The 3 button click and hold is long, annoying, and has short remote range. Ford, RAM = quick with astronomical remote range. Also Toyota will disable your 3 press remote start after your courtesy subscprition expires. Glad you like Toyota - I'm not the biggest fan (although I do like some things they do).

    Very honest and solid video. A lot of the issues are things that would steer me away too. One thing I’m not sure you put along with the moderate performance is that I believe tundras only have a 3:20 ratio rear end. Which is terrible. Ford has 4:10 in raptor, 3:73 in tremor and for the most part all other models of ford have 3:55 which are much better for towing and romping on the Gas!

    A 2015 5.7 i-force V8
    And my last 2021 5.7 V8
    I tried two 2023 tundras this afternoon. They are narrow in interior space. Just a bit bigger than a Tacoma but certainly no where near to the previous gen. It is more like the 2006

      2016 5.7 I-force V8 - 120,000 miles
      2023 3.5 Twin Turbo V6 - 2000 miles(and counting)
      All are SR5 - 2006 4X4 TRD Off Road, 2015 Flex Fuel 4X2, 2016 4X2, 2023 4X4 TRD Off Road.
      Loved the 5.7 V8, but the 2023 is the best handling off road, and I’m guessing that it has a lot to do with the rear suspension change that was made. Live in Las Vegas NV, and do a lot of driving on desert dirt roads and do push my 4X4 trucks harder than my 4X2’s naturally.
      Love the 2023, but am still getting used to the slightly different power band that it has over previous models. Good, maybe better, but definitely different.
      I tend to agree that the inside is smaller - I consider it to be the Tacoma I never had, because I always needed the full size truck for work

    I have a 2015 sr5 plus double cab 4 x4 with the trd package with approx 80 thousand miles in the Canadian Prairies with 8 real world winter driving. Other than regular fluid changes I have changed the belt and tensioner plus a set of tires at 60 thousand miles. When I purchased my truck the dealer hinted that Toyota was set to unveil a totally redesigned truck in 2017 model year. Well every year came and went with minor tweeks to the battle tested tank Tundra for five more years before the new and greatly improved truck was released. I believe the design and marketing team were looking for a new customer base to boost yearly sales all while keeping the loyal present customer who would automatically buy the new Tundra. It appears the old double cab is as big as the new crewmax rear seating room and the new double cab is marginally bigger than a Tacoma which is strange because the truck is longer. If you have not owned a truck or had the older Tundra the new truck may seem adequate. Toyota had 5 years to get this right and hit above the belt with a solid platform which would have minor upgrades every few years to stay relevant but I feel they will be playing catchup with things that should have been right during the first build. Lots of rattles, wind noise and quality issues in fit and finish. My truck out the door in 2015 was $43 k Canadian and now I see Toyota advertising the double cab with trd package starting at $59 k. I know prices go up but near 40 percent is a bit of a stretch for me. Toyota will keep a certain customer who wanted to see major improvements but will lose the segment who wanted minor changes such as fuel economy in a battle tested and proven truck that was durable with superior retained value. Good review hope you enjoy your new truck.

    Your comments are right on target! We have a 2022 Limited and most observations apply 100%. Our Main concerns are MPG and the low quality of materials.
    One other item that most reviews missed is the increased turning ratio and the unnecessary added empty space in the nose of the truck that makes it about 5 inches longer than previous model, so it would not fit in many garages (like the one in my daughter’s quite modern house).

    That’s not true, brake hold doesn’t turn on for Mazdas either. Some drivers don’t like brake hold on, so turning it on by default is fine. And the auto start stop is the same for BMW, sometimes it’ll turn off the car sometimes it won’t. Just turn it off your self it’s simple solutions that people just try to find issues with.
    Also the tundra have lower HP does not matter. Torque is what applies to the force that moves a vehicle and the tundra offers 583 compared to a eco boost that only has 510..

    Complexity and Reliability are directly related. I bought a 22 GX. GX is a 12 year old design with a NA V8, couldn't be happier. Same price as this newly designed ' high tech', 'high strung', squeaky 'SR5 Tundra. Would never buy a full size truck with a V6, definitely not a complex high strung V6 with an electric motor sandwiched in. The increased complexity insures this Tundra will NOT be as reliable as the previous gen Tundra's.

I bought the sierra (perfect shape/low mileage) for country chores - firewood, etc. Now I can do an apples-to-apples comparison. Not that I didn't know this before but it's day and night. Again, there is nothing specifically wrong with gmc but I just don't feel confident driving it - every part lives its own life and has no idea what other parts do. Every panel is loose, switches - even though they still work - feel like they will fall out any minute. The '04 4Runner with 340,000 miles felt a lot tighter than gmc with a fraction of miles on the odometer...
