Ford makes 20% margins off F-150 EV lightning ⚡️ But ford batteries 🔋 plants cost billions so every time they make money 💰 that goes to pay for their battery factory 🏭 ford already owns and has payed for a long time ago a engine factory. But ford also made a mistake ford delayed launch of f-150 because gas ⛽️ prices were low then gas prices spike ford two years later launched it and they did will old battery 🪫 technology that’s more expensive to manufacture lol 😂 when tesla and China was launching new cheaper tech ford was launching old outdated tech that cost more to produce so they scraped the old battery 🪫 and went with LFP
My suggestion to toyota was to do the hybrid as a method of doing 4 wheel drive. The electric motor runs the front wheels exclusively when you're going under 55. That way when you're toolin around town you save gas. Then when you are going over 55 or are towing or engage 4wheel drive now the gas motor is driving the back wheels while the electric motor can still run the front wheels. Everyone buys trucks because they need the power sometimes but not all the time. So why not divide and conquer? They thanked me for my idea and that will be the last we hear of it.
It's so frustrating because all these car companies are making over engineered junk that breaks after a few thousand miles, and yet I see them everywhere. When are people going to learn that if you want companies to make better products, you don't give them any money?
@@senorsenior9546 right? i dont get how politicians think replacing (reliable) V8 powertrains with disposable 4 or 6 cylinder turbocharged hybrid crap is at all good for the environment, let alone the economy since they overprice them anyway
Some of yall are so stupid you deserve what's coming. Why are you mad at the people who want you and your kids to have clean air and water and not at the billion dollar corporations who can't make a good engine that won't poison you..........🤷♀️. It's not like it's their job to make cars, oh no. How cruel.
What this is all boiling down too. Is that no matter what they try to do To replace the V8, Statistically. Longevity wise, durability wise etc. The V8 outperforms. All other competition Engine choice wise. Etc. The v8 gods are speaking loudly. You just can't beat em.
Exactly. My dad's 4 cylinder turbo, 10 speed Ford Ranger gets 19mpg average 😂 the exact same as my 4.6 V8. But a 300 horsepower turbo and over complex transmission will NOT last as long. It just won't. Because of the firing order, the pistons/rods of the 4 cylinder are under 3x as much stress
My 08 Tundra get about 17 mpg, and about 12 when I tow with it. I knew it when I bought it. I have 237,000 miles on it, and it runs drives and shifts like new. And I still get compliments on how good it looks inside and out. No way I’d trade it for the New Tundra. All that change and complexity added just to get 1 more mpg??? No thank you.
Same reason I bought the last of the old style Sequoias. 2022 was final year of the V8. New one wasn’t the same size and compromised rear seating and storage. Then this engine ordeal…
Scotty maybe the most important part that you should have mentioned is the tundra engines are locking up by dozens a day! Who would buy a truck that has a recalled defective engine???
I'll be keeping my 03 Tundra as long as possible.. When I have to buy, it'll probably be used. Or whatever truck has a good, non - turbo laden V8. Over engineering is going backwards.
I’ve got a friend that has a Tundra 5.7 not sure of the year, he keeps up with the maintenance as needed/ required, over the years he’s bought everything and I mean every major component of the truck, either new or rebuilt , he has a rebuilt engine, new engine components ps pump, A/C components, etc etc etc new transmission, new seats, carpeting, just about everything but a frame and body, when he gets 500,000 miles he has a friend that is now or just recently retired who is going to make him a new truck, he started buying these things when his truck was three years old , he just kept making “ a truck payment “ to a savings account, pretty soon he’ll have a new truck that he feels will be his last vehicle, already paid for using the “ truck payment fund” it’s a grey color right now but it’s gonna be the new green color that is on the brand new Tundra’s!
I've heard of laws being proposed that will make it illegal for mechanics to work on ICE cars. So, you'll be able to own an ICE car, you just won't be able to buy a new one or have the old one worked on.
All for 18mpg.!! My 1999 Siverado Z71 with tonneau cover would 18 mpg at 80mph (South Dakota speed limit) On tax hungry Iowa bumpy 2 lane roads at 55mph average I would get up to 24.5 to 23.3mpg. My wife used to get so frustrated that my "big" pickup would stomp our later model Trooper II V6. IIRC the avg hiway mpg with the Trooper II was 13 to 15 mpg. I explained to her numerous times that little V6 has to work HARD lugging that heavy Isuzu around. Hard work needs more energy. That's not a hard concept if you've done really hard work yourself in life. City people listening to CNN will never understand the simplest of reality concepts. FWIW I had a 1986 Trooper 2dr and 1988 Trooper 4dr. Both were simple and reliable. But bona fide scary with gusty side winds. Pulling a heavy duty trailer loaded with deer for 400 miles on I-90 I could get 29mpg. But no way at 80mph. LOL
Scotty... I tow a 10,000 lb camper across the country and boondock where I want to. Having leaf springs does not make my 2021 truck outdated or old tech. My I6 Cummins 3500 8' bed mega cab can haul my ATV in the bed and tow the camper and still only sag 2" with no load bars while getting 19 MPG... I'd get 7 or 8 MPG with the Toyota V8... No comparison...
I very briefly worked at a Ram dealership, and would hear about the “HEMI Tick”. The armchair critics would say they all do it, or that it was an exhaust leak. Then I bought a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 with 180,000 miles on it, and yes, it ticked. I began a massive tune up on it, and two of the 16 plugs were corroded away. About four of the plugs were in only hand tight: this was why it was ticking! Original plugs? Sabotage? I don’t know. The crazy thing was with 16 new plugs, it still ran the same. I liked that truck so much I bought a new one and like it even more.
Thank you so much for your passion in calling out bad products in Automobiles! Never thought at 66yrs old I would ever see Appliances , Automobiles etc being made so crappy and cheap ! What's sad is my Toyota brand has become Americanized ! America used to have so much pride in their products and you could always depend on Asian brands but no more! I blame our Government for alot of this and Greedy Corporate Businesses !
The electric fans don't pump oil pressure through your turbo that is still spinning 80,000 rpm when you shut it off. Instant oil coked. Are we not going to talk about the engine failures from machining debris left in the engine during assembly? Screw you Toyota.
Possible Fix is addition of an oil accumulator with timed switch for preventing coked bearings. If I owned a vehicle with a Turbo, I would install a Moroso accumulator
@@scottmaness4449 In 1983 I was in the service dept of a Mitsubishi dealer. We performed a recall on four cylinder turbos. The factory sent us kits to install a run on switch timed to thirty seconds after the ignition switch went to off. It really worked out well.
Nissan don't make the titan anymore. Ford makes the 5.0 coyote and I think chevy still makes the 5.3 and 6.2 . If you step up to heavy duty truck you can still get a good v8 also.
I have a 2023 tundra and I have never had a minutes problem with it. I pull a lawn care trailer with it every day and regularly pull a 50hp tractor with it. Truck has never needed anything done to it other than changing the oil
100,000 tundras on recall for bad engines and more to come because the 24’s were supposed to be fixed and they are blowing up faster than the 22’s 😂🤣😂🤣 Toyota should be embarrassed with the stuff they produced in the last 2 years!
Never thought I would see the day when someone would recommend NOT buying a Toyota Tundra. I completely agree. Toyota has lost the trust of many of us who were loyal to them for years. It will take a lot to get that trust back!
WD40 isn't a lubricant. They make a full line of products including lubricants. I used my dirt bike's chain lube on my 70 El Camino's hood hinges. Worked great. I used it on the door hinges and anything else that needed lube including carburetor linkage. Good motorcycle chain lube is waterproof and won't fling off.
Any new/newer vehicle in my opinion is a bad choice to purchase. Overpriced, plastic, cheap thin frames and sub frames ready to crack and rust out at anytime and soon to fail electronics to just name a few----- No thank you!
Yeah, I wouldn't bother with new trucks if you want reliability and durability. Just get the old trucks which are far better workhorses than the modern ones.
Lesson from this video. There ain't no replacement for displacement. I highly recommend using Lucas in the Hemi. Keep hearing talk of Cummins making a gas version of the 6.7L. That might be a good alternative to the diesel and lack of a V8 because again, there ain't no replacement for displacement.
23 tundra sr5 trd sport owner here (non hybrid motor). 75k miles, bought it with 6 miles on it. I drive all over the US for work, thus the high mileage. The turbo lag was definitely something to get used to but I dont even notice it now. I drive above speed limit (allegedly). Average 17-19mpg but if I go for best mileage I can easily do 21-22. Best I've done is 24mpg. Eco mode is less efficient than Normal, or even Sport. Mine does not govern out at 107 (allegedly).
My boss bought a ford lightning and a few months later it drove itself into stopped traffic while using the adaptive cruise control. I prefer used cars where we know what the faults are
You know adaptive cruise is available on all Ford trims... Not just the ev. I've had a 94 Ford ranger. 99 F-150. 2005 stx F-150 and a 2021 F-150 5.0... I can personally say the adaptive cruise and blue cruise is amazing.
@brandonmacon3317 just because it works well for you doesn't mean it's a flawless system. And it changes over time with new vehicles coming out. Especially the most modern EV they produce. It literally caused a 3 car accident while the driver had all their weight on the brakes. I have owned a few fords and currently have an old crown Victoria, which I love. New cars haven't always had their issues uncovered yet.
Yes ! The Idea of buying a expensive hybrid is to save gas, This thing gets around best 18MPG and also got a turbo, NOT Good, For the same price I would get a V8 Coyote which will average 18MPG and no turbo or hybrid
Traded the chevette for an 1882 V6 Mercury Capri. It was a Mustang with upgrades. I was in college and couldn't afford the mustang GT. Loved the Capri so much. One day saw a Ford dealership selling Excort for 99 dollars per month. To save my Capri. Damn i came across a 85 Mustang GT. Black and standard. I didn't know how to drive a manual at 25 years old. The salesperson took me out for a ride and fell in love with Bought it with hoping green lights home. Oh it gets better. The dealership didn't want me to come back with my Capri. They wanted the car now to not destroy anything for the sale. The Dealership gave me a Brand new mustang with the 4 cylinder engine to drive back about 35 miles with dealer plates. I worked overnight and lived at my parents house. The next day my father was impressed, don't know why. I had to tell him that this isn't my Mustang from the Dealership. As soon as told him I purchased a Mustang GT he flipped out. He probably liked fast cars at his age growing up. Fell in love with Ford and Mercury at that time. I had small engine shop like working on lawn mower or snow blowers. Vehicle Manufacturers back then made vehicles that anyone could work on. Without the Internet. With all the socificated components, can't work on your own vehicle. If lucky still have a manufacturer warranty. My Chevy had a ticking noise under the the steering wheel wheel. Over 8 hours for the mechanic to realize that a ground wire wasn't secure. If not under warranty would have cot
I like people putting stuff out to make buyers aware. But just based on my headline recollection with this guy, you would never buy a car again. It cant be that EVERYTHING is junk, can it?
My 2021 Tundra double cab with an 8 foot bed consistently gets 14 mpg with a 6 speed transmission. Makes me think they could have improved the v8 a little, mounted to the 10 speed and be in the same ballpark of fuel economy as their crappy v6.
My local dealership called me and offered me $18K for my 2014 Tundra 5.7L and I told them "sure! Don't forget the $10K mark-up so that'll be $28K because mine is in high demand... cash preferably!" shut them up real quick 😂 Glad I bought mines $32K out the door when they had to "move the lot" 😂🤙🤙🤙
Scotty still can't admit the Ford Lightning is better even after seeing all that power. 90% + of trucks have nothing in the bed so hardly anyone is hauling most of the time. Men buy trucks for the capability but hardly need that. They will sell more after they get the new model start up price down. $ .72 cent per gallon equivalent in charging at home gives you 4 or 5+ times the driving range of a gas guzzling truck for the same money. That alone sold me. Don't buy if you want a cross country long haul truck. Almost no one does.
Well I looked at all the GM pickups and used one's. So I got 2022 SR5 an 45000 on it . Know engine problems ! In the summer it gets an average of 20.4 this year ! In Minnesota winter the gas mileage will go down . The best milage I gotten is driving US 14 in SD is 28 mpg at 55 mph !
5.7 V8 Toyotas are King. I could buy a Defective new Tundra, but the old 2020 V8 5.7 TRDs are just so much better. Idc too much about 2-3 MPG, Especially if the engine will detonate.
EVERY time I go to Toyota, I tell them (and the workers in the maintenance dept agree) that fewer people are buying new Tundras largely due to their abandonment of the KISS principle (Keep It Simple Stupid) by replacing a proven V8 with garbage, ESPECIALLY since they have a whole fleet of cars w/hybrid tech to increase the overall fleets mpg to appease the govt. They also ask nearly wkly to trade in my 2018 V8 with less than 54K mi. Their sales dept hears the same response...no way, I'll not consider until they at least offer a V8.
I have a 2006 Toyota tundra sr5 4.7L V8 with 317k miles it doesn’t leak oil or burn oil, ac still blows cold 🥶 no check engine light 💡 plus it’s lifted with king 👑 coilovers in front and fox in back with original engine and original transmission I’ve replaced the radiator and a couple other parts but it’s running perfect and I hope I can get it to 500,000k miles just on fluid changes 💪🇺🇸🇯🇵😂
Scotty, idling a diesel is an awful idea. That's how you build up soot and ruin your engine. Diesels need to be run hard or you'll have a nice bill down the road for repairs.
Getting ready to say, none of the other full size trucks not getting good gm Actually, if he is getting 18 mpg, that's pretty good. I get 14 to 15 mpg in my 2017 tundra v8
Every 2x4 WD MOPAR I ever owned was UNBELIEVABLE BAD when it comes to snowy, icy or muddy driving. Unacceptable for me in NH. MOPAR 4x4 does well traction wise.
I'll never own anything newer than 2005. Period. All these new rolling couches with touch screens and 50 onboard computers can suck it. Small engines in these trucks that are overworked and don't last anymore. You can keep it all.
Anytime i see a chip, i run.I miss my 80 F150 300 six 4x4. I once drove it 30 miles out of the desert from near Glamis to the AZ border with no water after a fan blade went through my radiator. It dropped 7lbs of oil pressure but 100k later it was still running. I only got 15mpg but so what. It drove like a truck, it rode like a truck cause IT WAS A TRUCK!

But the eleven footer is a thousand dollars higher...
Don't buy one of these ! If you have to have one LEASE one !
Bring back the V-8 for the Tundra!
Not happening
@DoneDeal2 The V-6, gets no better mileage than the V-8. It was made purely to satisfy emission standard, with no regard for reliability.

It’s mainly because they look cool. All most people care about is looks.
They should have never stopped putting a V8 in full size pickup trucks.

Agreed

I have a 2005 taco 2.7 liter with 354,000 miles on it! That truck will last you forever trust me!
whats the first year of the turbos for the tacomas and tundras?
Scotty never runs out of oxygen, good set of lungs, ty♥️😊🙏
Moves his arms like a cheerleader shaking pom poms
yeah but he's right!
*But bad teeth*
My 08 Tundra get about 17 mpg, and about 12 when I tow with it.
I knew it when I bought it. I have 237,000 miles on it, and it runs drives and shifts like new. And I still get compliments on how good it looks inside and out.
No way I’d trade it for the New Tundra. All that change and complexity added just to get 1 more mpg???
No thank you.
No Toyota Tundra after 2021 is worth it Last year of the 5.7 liter v8
Same reason I bought the last of the old style Sequoias. 2022 was final year of the V8. New one wasn’t the same size and compromised rear seating and storage. Then this engine ordeal…
I found a 93 GMC suburban with 50k. I think I'll get it. No bells or whistles. These new trucks seem too delicate and temperamental.
No u will find so much fun with that fuel management
Ha ha
@@plusblood5101What fuel management is on a 93 GMC?
All this crap is getting too complex and unreliable....
Yeah I want twin turbo and hybrid.
Yeah right
yep...toyota is losing what made their brand good!
Yes. Over engineered cr@p.
We gotta save humanity from the climate
I'd never buy one
I’m no fan of the new Tundra engine.
IMO, it should have stayed in the 5th Gen Lexus LS sedan. It was never meant to be in a truck.
It’s not just the engine. The general build quality has drastically decreased.
Scotty maybe the most important part that you should have mentioned is the tundra engines are locking up by dozens a day! Who would buy a truck that has a recalled defective engine???
@@wizzle0979aren't they being built in Mexico?
Government ruins everything
this man has a vast knowledge of automotive. legend
I'll be keeping my 03 Tundra as long as possible.. When I have to buy, it'll probably be used. Or whatever truck has a good, non - turbo laden V8. Over engineering is going backwards.
I’ve got a friend that has a Tundra 5.7 not sure of the year, he keeps up with the maintenance as needed/ required, over the years he’s bought everything and I mean every major component of the truck, either new or rebuilt , he has a rebuilt engine, new engine components ps pump, A/C components, etc etc etc new transmission, new seats, carpeting, just about everything but a frame and body, when he gets 500,000 miles he has a friend that is now or just recently retired who is going to make him a new truck, he started buying these things when his truck was three years old , he just kept making “ a truck payment “ to a savings account, pretty soon he’ll have a new truck that he feels will be his last vehicle, already paid for using the “ truck payment fund” it’s a grey color right now but it’s gonna be the new green color that is on the brand new Tundra’s!
I've heard of laws being proposed that will make it illegal for mechanics to work on ICE cars. So, you'll be able to own an ICE car, you just won't be able to buy a new one or have the old one worked on.
@@bghoody5665over my mother in-laws dead body they better not
The problem is finding a good used vehicle will be much harder as the years go by
That new Tundra engine sounds like overly complicated trash that's gonna break down hahaha
They are failing and there is huge recall on all 6 cylinder models.
They aren’t failing lol please provide proof.
They replaced 500k motors already for 22-23 models.
@@torilessproof?
Lol
All for 18mpg.!! My 1999 Siverado Z71 with tonneau cover would 18 mpg at 80mph (South Dakota speed limit) On tax hungry Iowa bumpy 2 lane roads at 55mph average I would get up to 24.5 to 23.3mpg. My wife used to get so frustrated that my "big" pickup would stomp our later model Trooper II V6. IIRC the avg hiway mpg with the Trooper II was 13 to 15 mpg.
I explained to her numerous times that little V6 has to work HARD lugging that heavy Isuzu around. Hard work needs more energy. That's not a hard concept if you've done really hard work yourself in life. City people listening to CNN will never understand the simplest of reality concepts.
FWIW I had a 1986 Trooper 2dr and 1988 Trooper 4dr. Both were simple and reliable. But bona fide scary with gusty side winds. Pulling a heavy duty trailer loaded with deer for 400 miles on I-90 I could get 29mpg. But no way at 80mph. LOL
Love that attitude Scotty, "old dog, new tricks", don't ever quit.
Maybe this explains why older trucks are going up in value.
Older recent Toyota's before the change over, yes. Just some random old Trucks, no.
I'm happy with my 14 5.7L V8 Tundra. 👍
Same year same engine, she's a beast 👍
Scotty... I tow a 10,000 lb camper across the country and boondock where I want to. Having leaf springs does not make my 2021 truck outdated or old tech. My I6 Cummins 3500 8' bed mega cab can haul my ATV in the bed and tow the camper and still only sag 2" with no load bars while getting 19 MPG... I'd get 7 or 8 MPG with the Toyota V8... No comparison...
I very briefly worked at a Ram dealership, and would hear about the “HEMI Tick”. The armchair critics would say they all do it, or that it was an exhaust leak. Then I bought a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 with 180,000 miles on it, and yes, it ticked. I began a massive tune up on it, and two of the 16 plugs were corroded away. About four of the plugs were in only hand tight: this was why it was ticking! Original plugs? Sabotage? I don’t know. The crazy thing was with 16 new plugs, it still ran the same. I liked that truck so much I bought a new one and like it even more.
Many more expensive things to go wrong, and they will. Often
Thank you so much for your passion in calling out bad products in Automobiles! Never thought at 66yrs old I would ever see Appliances , Automobiles etc being made so crappy and cheap ! What's sad is my Toyota brand has become Americanized ! America used to have so much pride in their products and you could always depend on Asian brands but no more! I blame our Government for alot of this and Greedy Corporate Businesses !
Way way too much tech nowadays! I’ll always buy older vehicles albeit I do like the Nissan frontier with the naturally aspirated V6
The electric fans don't pump oil pressure through your turbo that is still spinning 80,000 rpm when you shut it off. Instant oil coked. Are we not going to talk about the engine failures from machining debris left in the engine during assembly? Screw you Toyota.
Possible Fix is addition of an oil accumulator with timed switch for preventing coked bearings. If I owned a vehicle with a Turbo, I would install a Moroso accumulator
@fromthebackofmymind Also driver training, which will never happen. Build oil pressure, drive, allow spin down, shut off.
@@scottmaness4449 In 1983 I was in the service dept of a Mitsubishi dealer. We performed a recall on four cylinder turbos. The factory sent us kits to install a run on switch timed to thirty seconds after the ignition switch went to off. It really worked out well.
Why not just have 8 cylinders regular truck ( no turbo)
@@fromthebackofmymind I had friends with Cummins in the Dodges that had aftermarket systems that did that. Worked well for them too.
Make full sized trucks great again
This. I'm pretty bitter about how small a new Tundra looks now.
Kudos to the mechanics who do this! Tires Plus, Baxter, MN, Midland Auto, New Hope/Crystal, MN. They've got me out of jams! Sorted me out!
Nissan titan still offers a great full size truck, with old school reliability
Nissan don't make the titan anymore. Ford makes the 5.0 coyote and I think chevy still makes the 5.3 and 6.2 . If you step up to heavy duty truck you can still get a good v8 also.
I have a 2023 tundra and I have never had a minutes problem with it. I pull a lawn care trailer with it every day and regularly pull a 50hp tractor with it. Truck has never needed anything done to it other than changing the oil
Toyota has really dropped the ball with their trucks
Too complicated and way overpriced.
100,000 tundras on recall for bad engines and more to come because the 24’s were supposed to be fixed and they are blowing up faster than the 22’s 😂🤣😂🤣 Toyota should be embarrassed with the stuff they produced in the last 2 years!
Blame the EPA. I'm sure a company like Toyota would have loved to keep putting the old V8s in
06:53 Me in every modern rental car & truck.
08:18 Me too, Scotty, me too. 😢
This video is the reason my newest vehicle is 13 years old.
Never thought I would see the day when someone would recommend NOT buying a Toyota Tundra. I completely agree. Toyota has lost the trust of many of us who were loyal to them for years. It will take a lot to get that trust back!
People don’t buy the tundra, a friend of mine has the hybrid system, it failed. Even the dealer doesn’t know how to fix it
WD40 isn't a lubricant. They make a full line of products including lubricants. I used my dirt bike's chain lube on my 70 El Camino's hood hinges. Worked great. I used it on the door hinges and anything else that needed lube including carburetor linkage. Good motorcycle chain lube is waterproof and won't fling off.
It is amazing how many people buy a truck to use as a car.
look at their bumpers!!! couldnt stop a shopping cart
Better than buying a car to use as a truck
Looks like I’ll be buying used vehicles from now on. I want naturally aspirated V6s, V8s or even inline 6.
I don’t want turbo charged or hybrid crap
A few more great nuggets of wisdom. Thanks, Scotty.
But you’re right , they’re not right switching a V6 for a V8 . Anyone knows that a V 8 is a good thing on a pick up
Any new/newer vehicle in my opinion is a bad choice to purchase. Overpriced, plastic, cheap thin frames and sub frames ready to crack and rust out at anytime and soon to fail electronics to just name a few----- No thank you!
Yeah, I wouldn't bother with new trucks if you want reliability and durability. Just get the old trucks which are far better workhorses than the modern ones.
seen a few cybertrucks around town, and they look like a kid in highschool metal shop class designed and built it
Cybertrucks look like a kitchen appliance with all that stainless steel.
Really like my 2022 Frontier. 310hp V6. Performance muffler and K&N drop in filter
Ooooooooo,cool filter ! 🙄🥱🥱🥱
Nice truck
@@modus_operandi2508 I’m 56yr old. No desire to spend heavily on upgrades. Good enough for me.
That’s a rag of a truck
Lmao! Performance exhaust 😂....does nothing but make noise
Anyone who would get the new junk Tundra while many V8 Tundras still available is just looking for the status of “new truck look at me” kinda thing
Looking at that engine compartment, I’m not sure anyone can touch this thang. Too much technology: and plumbing, for me.
I own an 04 tundra. 320k. It's a beast. Why did Toyota ditch the legendary engine???
Lesson from this video. There ain't no replacement for displacement. I highly recommend using Lucas in the Hemi. Keep hearing talk of Cummins making a gas version of the 6.7L. That might be a good alternative to the diesel and lack of a V8 because again, there ain't no replacement for displacement.
All the tech and energy put into this stuff, and an old V8 still works better and gets same gas mileage. Government intervention is useless.

I have seen 0 Lightnings, several Foundation Cybertrucks, one red production Cybertruck, a few dozen Rivians, and thousands of Teslas.
23 tundra sr5 trd sport owner here (non hybrid motor). 75k miles, bought it with 6 miles on it. I drive all over the US for work, thus the high mileage.
The turbo lag was definitely something to get used to but I dont even notice it now. I drive above speed limit (allegedly). Average 17-19mpg but if I go for best mileage I can easily do 21-22. Best I've done is 24mpg. Eco mode is less efficient than Normal, or even Sport.
Mine does not govern out at 107 (allegedly).
My boss bought a ford lightning and a few months later it drove itself into stopped traffic while using the adaptive cruise control. I prefer used cars where we know what the faults are
You know adaptive cruise is available on all Ford trims... Not just the ev. I've had a 94 Ford ranger. 99 F-150. 2005 stx F-150 and a 2021 F-150 5.0... I can personally say the adaptive cruise and blue cruise is amazing.
@brandonmacon3317 just because it works well for you doesn't mean it's a flawless system. And it changes over time with new vehicles coming out. Especially the most modern EV they produce. It literally caused a 3 car accident while the driver had all their weight on the brakes. I have owned a few fords and currently have an old crown Victoria, which I love. New cars haven't always had their issues uncovered yet.
I have a Heavy Duty diesel truck, and I have never put a drop of gas into the tank. So; mine is not a gas hog!
If you have a Toyota Tundra with the 4.7 V8 or the 5.7 V8? Keep it, its not worth upgrading to the new version
Toyota must hate their prior customer base. They’re turning into a clone of modern GM.
Didn't Akio Toyoda step down? Probaby the new CEO making "changes"
Truck makers have decided to make their products be replaced more often so they can sell more
If you have an older car with manual transmission, consider it a treasure. It will run forever without any issues that an EV can cause.

I love my ‘05 V8 Tundra. 325,000 miles.
Great video Scotty. I would never buy a Dodge Ram ( yes I said Dodge) a Nissan, or anything electric.
Yes ! The Idea of buying a expensive hybrid is to save gas, This thing gets around best 18MPG and also got a turbo, NOT Good, For the same price I would get a V8 Coyote which will average 18MPG and no turbo or hybrid
I would buy a tundra if they made a 3/4 ton with a non turbo v8.
Traded the chevette for an 1882 V6 Mercury Capri. It was a Mustang with upgrades. I was in college and couldn't afford the mustang GT. Loved the Capri so much. One day saw a Ford dealership selling Excort for 99 dollars per month. To save my Capri. Damn i came across a 85 Mustang GT. Black and standard.
I didn't know how to drive a manual at 25 years old. The salesperson took me out for a ride and fell in love with Bought it with hoping green lights home.
Oh it gets better. The dealership didn't want me to come back with my Capri. They wanted the car now to not destroy anything for the sale. The Dealership gave me a Brand new mustang with the 4 cylinder engine to drive back about 35 miles with dealer plates. I worked overnight and lived at my parents house. The next day my father was impressed, don't know why. I had to tell him that this isn't my Mustang from the Dealership.
As soon as told him I purchased a Mustang GT he flipped out. He probably liked fast cars at his age growing up.
Fell in love with Ford and Mercury at that time.
I had small engine shop like working on lawn mower or snow blowers.
Vehicle Manufacturers back then made vehicles that anyone could work on. Without the Internet.
With all the socificated components, can't work on your own vehicle.
If lucky still have a manufacturer warranty. My Chevy had a ticking noise under the the steering wheel wheel.
Over 8 hours for the mechanic to realize that a ground wire wasn't secure.
If not under warranty would have cot
I like people putting stuff out to make buyers aware. But just based on my headline recollection with this guy, you would never buy a car again. It cant be that EVERYTHING is junk, can it?
He just drums up attention
I could buy a new truck today for cash if I wanted too. I used to buy a new vehicle every 5 years, now I buy land instead.
My 2021 Tundra double cab with an 8 foot bed consistently gets 14 mpg with a 6 speed transmission. Makes me think they could have improved the v8 a little, mounted to the 10 speed and be in the same ballpark of fuel economy as their crappy v6.
Nah, that's too many gears. Transmission will slip eventually. Leave it as is. Toyota knew what they were doing before the 3rd Gen.
"Toyota makes their own transmission so I don't expect any problems with them". Toyota's new 8-speed... Hold my beer.
My local dealership called me and offered me $18K for my 2014 Tundra 5.7L and I told them "sure! Don't forget the $10K mark-up so that'll be $28K because mine is in high demand... cash preferably!" shut them up real quick 😂
Glad I bought mines $32K out the door when they had to "move the lot" 😂🤙🤙🤙
THE "TWIN TURBOS" OF ENGINE DESTRUCTION! - IN LESS THAN 6 YEARS.😮😅😅
My 2016 5.7 Tundra gets 16 mph. I'm happy happy!
Scotty still can't admit the Ford Lightning is better even after seeing all that power. 90% + of trucks have nothing in the bed so hardly anyone is hauling most of the time. Men buy trucks for the capability but hardly need that. They will sell more after they get the new model start up price down. $ .72 cent per gallon equivalent in charging at home gives you 4 or 5+ times the driving range of a gas guzzling truck for the same money. That alone sold me. Don't buy if you want a cross country long haul truck. Almost no one does.
Totally untrue I'll keep my gas guzzling super duty😁
Well I looked at all the GM pickups and used one's. So I got 2022 SR5 an 45000 on it . Know engine problems ! In the summer it gets an average of 20.4 this year ! In Minnesota winter the gas mileage will go down . The best milage I gotten is driving US 14 in SD is 28 mpg at 55 mph !
5.7 V8 Toyotas are King.
I could buy a Defective new Tundra, but the old 2020 V8 5.7 TRDs are just so much better. Idc too much about 2-3 MPG, Especially if the engine will detonate.
Love your VIDEOS. Love this one too
EVERY time I go to Toyota, I tell them (and the workers in the maintenance dept agree) that fewer people are buying new Tundras largely due to their abandonment of the KISS principle (Keep It Simple Stupid) by replacing a proven V8 with garbage, ESPECIALLY since they have a whole fleet of cars w/hybrid tech to increase the overall fleets mpg to appease the govt. They also ask nearly wkly to trade in my 2018 V8 with less than 54K mi. Their sales dept hears the same response...no way, I'll not consider until they at least offer a V8.
They just don’t make’em like Scotty ( and his “Old Man”) anymore. Salute!
I don't think that tundra is beautiful. Ùgly grill , ugly bumpers and bumpers are plastic. Turbos . No thanks.
I have a 2006 Toyota tundra sr5 4.7L V8 with 317k miles it doesn’t leak oil or burn oil, ac still blows cold 🥶 no check engine light 💡 plus it’s lifted with king 👑 coilovers in front and fox in back with original engine and original transmission I’ve replaced the radiator and a couple other parts but it’s running perfect and I hope I can get it to 500,000k miles just on fluid changes 💪🇺🇸🇯🇵😂
Scotty, idling a diesel is an awful idea. That's how you build up soot and ruin your engine. Diesels need to be run hard or you'll have a nice bill down the road for repairs.
‘17 F150 with Coyote 8: 22 light city driving and 23+ at 70 mph. I’ll keep the Ford thank you.
Good Video Scotty.
Getting ready to say, none of the other full size trucks not getting good gm
Actually, if he is getting 18 mpg, that's pretty good. I get 14 to 15 mpg in my 2017 tundra v8
I do 18mpg on my V8 Tundra too but it has much less moving parts to fix ;)
Thank You Mr Kilmer 🙏👍🐕🦺
Every 2x4 WD MOPAR I ever owned was UNBELIEVABLE BAD when it comes to snowy, icy or muddy driving. Unacceptable for me in NH.
MOPAR 4x4 does well traction wise.
I got a 2022 Ram big horn V8 it gets 18 mpg normally. Just driving around I usually get anywhere from 16 to 17 mpg
I'll never own anything newer than 2005. Period. All these new rolling couches with touch screens and 50 onboard computers can suck it. Small engines in these trucks that are overworked and don't last anymore. You can keep it all.
I’ll take my Ford F250 or 22 miles to gallon 6.7 diesel any day
The only new truck that I would buy right now would be the F-150 with the V-8 and I wouldn't be too excited for that.
Imagine how Scotty was as a child.
I had a 2019 Ram V6 tradesman. Best truck I ever had. 24mpg.
Scotty Kilmer should be the host of Top Gear America.
I'm a big Toyota fan as well, they are great cars etc 😎
Why not put a V8 and keep things simple and more reliable? It's a gas hog either way!
Anytime i see a chip, i run.I miss my 80 F150 300 six 4x4. I once drove it 30 miles out of the desert from near Glamis to the AZ border with no water after a fan blade went through my radiator. It dropped 7lbs of oil pressure but 100k later it was still running. I only got 15mpg but so what. It drove like a truck, it rode like a truck cause IT WAS A TRUCK!
You missed talking about all the issues that they are having with the engine! Massive recalls!!
