People who want to pick on this truck always point out the 13-17MPG... that is just the best that a medium displacement, naturally aspirated V8 can do with massive torque & HP. Turbocharging smaller engines is just going to give a truck higher maintenance and repair cost over the long term... and the 2-3MPG that you Might gain is really a wash if your spending $.60 more per gallon for running premium fuel like you should if your driving a forced induction engine... This truck will be out Going Places while the more complex truck engines will be wasting your time & money in the shop. It’s a very modern advanced V8 with DOHC 32v VVT-i. This is just as good as a truck power train can be! And the Transmission pairing... ok maybe an 8-speed could help it buy another 1-2 MPG but this 6-Speed shifts butter smooth and responds to driver input with instant downshifts and intuitive upshifting. If you disagree or hate on the Tundra... Go drive one, then thank me. When it’s got 300k miles with nothing but regular maintenance, You’ll truly understand, and Thank Toyota.
superpac1966 I hope they never change it, but I’m sure they will change it in two or three years and put a bunch of “millennial tech baloney” in such as no knobs, one huge screen, push button start, super bright LED lights that blind people at night. (everyone who drives frequently at night will have eye problems someday) I could literally go on and on. I love the truck how it is today, I wish they NEVER WOULD CHANGE IT!
The best most reliable truck Toyota always does well, we dont want the changes to this truck its doing just fine the way it is. IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT
@@fike301 drove my first 'bare bones' tundra for over 200k miles. would still be driving it and expecting another 200K miles, ceptin' I 'let' someone hit me. and insurance transmogrified the best truck ever (2006 SR5) into a $10K hunk of metal. just got into my 'new to me' 2018 SR5 with 20K miles and looking for next 300K miles with nothin' but oil changes, tires and routine maintenance. not something I felt I could get in other brand offerings.
Just got my Limited Crewmax 4x4 2 weeks ago. Yup, it may sound silly but it's the perfect pickup for a new dad , the rear doors open to almost 90 degrees to get a baby seat in and out. Can't do that in a Tacoma easily. You say it needs an update but I love the old school aspects.
Hey Dave! Great review. I was looking at the Tundra and a friend of mine has a 2007 single cab with the 4.? Engine with 180k and it drives awesome. Fuel is a concern but the room is amazing! Live near the California Coast so I need a truck to pull the camping trailer. Don’t have kids but have a lot of nieces and nephews so it seems it would do the trick. Hope you review more trucks! You are in my top 5 reviewers that I trust! Keep up the great reviews!
I’m enjoying my 2018 SR5 TSS Double Cab. My wife enjoys going on long trips in the truck because it rides so smooth. If you have got to have a lot of gadgets to play with while you are driving then this is not the truck for you. My 2016 Camry had all the gadgets, but I didn’t use a lot of those. Not while driving. I can’t complain about the lack of gadgets in my Tundra. Backseat space is good in the Double Cab. We had four adults in the cab on a 3 hour trips to Dallas. Everybody was comfortable and had plenty of leg room and head room.
Sacapuntas previously, the rear seats were able to travel/adjust/recline giving passengers real comfort and child seat adjustability.... now, they fold up. Good job toyota, way to follow the pack smh.
Yes, I had a 2008 Limited Crewmax. I have no problem with the new way the seats fold up, it really gives more space, but there is no purpose of the raised floor. There is just foam under there. If it was flat like the F150 it would be much much more useful. And now you can't store anything but possibly a newspaper under the rear seats. And not a very thick one at that. The old style had storage under and behind the seats.
I would consider buying this truck but the MPG is laughable. I’m not one that’s pro brand, but just looking at the Tundra it seems old. I’ll definitely consider it in a year though.
considering trading in my 5th gen 4runner & my 03 F150 for one of these in 4WD...maybe the Off-Rd trim...kids moving out of my house, loving the huge inside room...and i cant afford a Land Cruiser...
I own a 2018 Titan, but also owned a 2008 Tundra. It definitely drove like a car and had plenty of power. However, i do like my new Titan (also owned a 2004 Titan).
Because I'm a small UA-cam channel and I don't get the latest vehicles yet.... and as you heard in my introduction, this was my FIRST TRUCK loan. I'm still paying my dues and proving my worth. Besides, some people are search for 2018 reviews and they want to hear my pov.
Having to lock the tailgate with a key is not an issue for me. For me, I do not like prox key entry or push button start. I dont open my tailgate when I'm in the cab, so I have my keys in my hand. All the tech in new vehicles these days leads to hacking. Check into prox key repeaters that theives are using to break into vehicles. They cam sniff your prox key in the house from your front door and use another device near the vehicle to open and start it. So, Tundra's low tech is a security plus.
I must say, while not that great of a truck in and of itself, the "threat" of this truck has caused the domestic trucks to step up there game... My brother has this truck and compared to my sierra this doesn't really compete, but ironically every Ram, Ford, and GM driver should be thanking toyota for the empty threat. We all benefited from competition...
Please explain how the Tundra doesn't compete with a Sierra. I have a Sierra and I test drove a used Tundra and it felt better in every way. The 5.7 in the Tundra is strong and reliable. The 2014 and newer direct injected GM V8s are not as reliable as the old LS series engines. The 8 speed transmissions in the new GM trucks are notorious for torque converter problems and outright failures. I'm a GM guy but I am very leary about buying a new one. My brother-in-law has a 2002 Tundra and he drives that thing like he hates it. 327,000 hard miles and he hasn't managed to kill it yet. My Sierra has been great and pretty much trouble free but I take very good care of my vehicles. The Tundra I drove felt like an upgrade to me.
Hmmm, Ram offers more trims than Toyota. Having that said, the person doing the comparison contradicts himself. Most buyers will do their research and purchase a truck for what they need it for. Not take the highest Toyota trim and compare it with the lowest Ram trim. The highest Ram trim vs Toyota's highest trim, no comparison from a performance, technology, and luxury amenities. Ram crushes Toyota
Man I wanted a Tundra... bad. If I could wait for the 2020 or 2021 redesign I would. But after kicking the tires I just couldn't do it. Not having anything to tow had a huge impact on my decision because I think I would have picked this over the F150 with the 2.7 Ecoboost, which is what I purchased. So after 1300 miles I am hand calculated averaging 21.5mpg. this thing can't get close to that and that is a ton of money per year saved. That golf bag fits under the rear seat of the F150 while a passenger is seated and ya can't do that in the Tundra. I have Android Auto and a modern appearance (SXT) and I paid 31k. The SR5 doesn't compare and good luck finding it under 38k. Toyota needs to bring it.
D.A. Arthur your gonna regret your decision close to the 100k mark if you make it there, that gas money you saved, which gas mileage should never be a decision maker when purchasing a truck, on the 2.7, my friends local shop is seeing alot and I mean 2-3 per week now, turbos on the 2.7 failing, that’s a 7k fix, and he’s seeing starters failing sooner, that’s a $800 fix, start/stop technology sucks, here is my question, how many Toyota Tundras do you see in your local shops around town?
@@FordF-Super I don't think so buddy. The Turbos are $500. And easy to get to. I did the research and didn't listen to the fear mongering most Toyota owners use to justify their purchase. I had a 2016 Tacoma and the thing was in the shop constantly, the Tundra is older and would probably have less issues, but Toyota wasn't the best when it came to customer service honestly. Look it up, the parts are cheap and it's a job that you can do in your garage. Plus I drive less than 10k a year so I am good for 5 years regardless due to the warranty.
Kinda like all the assholes that buy Fords because they buy into the hype during football games on tv that they are "The best selling truck for umpteen years." Of course they sell a bunch of them. You have to buy 3 to last as long as one Toyota.
An equally equipped tundra will cost thousands less than an f150 or Chevy. Sure, it's not good in gas bit you can AFFORD that gas with the reduced price AND the reliability of a Toyota.
I like trucks to perform. Tow my boat, my trailers filled with trees, stone, supplies. I get dirty. Should I pay extra $10,000 for a luxury interior...on my truck? Cover yourself In dirt and sweat for 10 hrs, jump In and start playing with your tech/interior... In 2 hours it will have dirt engrained, scratches, mud, etc. Then have the transmission pop out of park? And electrical problems. Or should I get a toyota? Don't get me wrong, I love rams, used 2500s and 3500s for work for years...beasts. however, moral of the story...different flavors, different people. They all have pros and cons depending on what you need it for.
I love everything Toyota and for the past 27 years have only purchased Toyota (only 1 car at a time, I am not rich by no means). My dream garage would have a Tundra, Venza, Sienna, and a Prius (funny, being I am a single male). I will say this, my dream car a Toyota Venza Limited, completely blacked, out was totaled when a tree fell on it and myself three years ago. Unfortunately, the tree fell from The City and County, thus they were not responsible for any damages. I miss my Venza, but I do have a great Prius.
I've seen 40 year old Toyota Trucks in 3rd world countries so overloaded with cargo that it should have been loaded on a semi driving daily on unpaved roads and they aere still just as reliable as the day they were bought. Watch Top Gear's: To kill a Hilux episode to get an idea of how rugged those trucks are. Poor countries and militias will mount a 50 cal or AA guns to the back and literally take them into battle. Meanwhile 95% of F-150s never leave the well paved suburbs and highways and still don't last as long as a Toyota would. .
It's a sorry outdated , cant tow as much as a modern truck or go as far on less fuel. Now wonder in the 11 yrs they might of sold 1 million where ford , Chevy sale almost a million every yr. Because most poeple want a modern truck. The reviewer bought his dad a king ranch f150 if that Carrie's any weight. In not a outdated gas drinking unpowered truck
F-150 KING OF TRUCKS could be a follower and just get a Ford like the rest of the zombies. Lol. Take the Tundra any day of the week over a cookie cutter F150
I agree with F 150 king of trucks the truck is outdated gas guzzler I owned a 2014 Toyota Tundra the best thing I did was sell that and buy an F150 2017 Lariat
Nice truck if you can afford the fuel. Not a family vehicle. Buy a Sienna, it's awesome space, better fuel, in fact we call it our truck with everything we are able to haul. Just have your mulch delivered and you won't need a truck.

Yes lots complain about the poor MPG, but Just how many P/U truck drivers do you see on the road actually drive at the speed limit to conserve gas?
ALL V8's from every maker is within acceptable mpg from each other.
Compare V8 to V8 only.
If that's the criteria I'll take a Tundra.
What your saying is true. Look at the new Tundra with those turbos. lol.
Bought a 2018 Tundra Crew Max. Use it to tow a boat. Great vehicle.
It's a great truck. Sure it doesn't have the tech of the domestic trucks but it can't be beat in reliability and resale value.
Its insane how Toyota holds their value Toyota is by far the best car and truck to buy you can't beat it
And nobody needs that tech.
All the U.S. tundras arent imported there're all made in Texas, sounds pretty domestic to me...
all it needs is to lose some weight
It’s amazing how little the truck has changed since I bought the first double cab Tundra in 2005. Still driving it and barely broken in at 115k.
superpac1966 I hope they never change it, but I’m sure they will change it in two or three years and put a bunch of “millennial tech baloney” in such as no knobs, one huge screen, push button start, super bright LED lights that blind people at night. (everyone who drives frequently at night will have eye problems someday) I could literally go on and on. I love the truck how it is today, I wish they NEVER WOULD CHANGE IT!
Wow. That’s not a lot of driving
It may be outdated but it's simple and reliable. I'm glad it doesn't have push button start, one less thing to break.
Mine never broke. Yeah u still living like a caveman
Go back riding a horse
Mr_ NutZ it’s proven push button starts are designed to break. do you want your car to drive for you also? a key is more satisfying
lmfao..
F-150 KING OF TRUCKS we love a ford channel on a toyota review
I have 2012 Platinum Crewmax 4x4. It is a beast. I'm 58 and after many many vehicles over the years this truck is the most solid I've ever owned.
The best most reliable truck Toyota always does well, we dont want the changes to this truck its doing just fine the way it is.
IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT
Oh so buy an Atari in 2019...pay same price as latest game console. Then claim Atari is more reliable? No thanks
It’s simple... it needs to be updated
I LIKE SIMPLE
PEOPLE THAT DRIVE TRUCKS BECAUSE THEY NEED TO LOVE SIMPLE
IE BADBOY See my reply below
@@fike301 drove my first 'bare bones' tundra for over 200k miles. would still be driving it and expecting another 200K miles, ceptin' I 'let' someone hit me. and insurance transmogrified the best truck ever (2006 SR5) into a $10K hunk of metal. just got into my 'new to me' 2018 SR5 with 20K miles and looking for next 300K miles with nothin' but oil changes, tires and routine maintenance. not something I felt I could get in other brand offerings.
Spoiler alert, they changed the engine lol and its not as good apparently
Los Angeles fire department (LAFD) They use this vehicle for battalion chiefs
Just got my Limited Crewmax 4x4 2 weeks ago. Yup, it may sound silly but it's the perfect pickup for a new dad , the rear doors open to almost 90 degrees to get a baby seat in and out. Can't do that in a Tacoma easily. You say it needs an update but I love the old school aspects.
Huge swinging doors mean more door dings for others. I never found this to be a positive feature. Although I'm not a parent. 🤷♂️
@@rustlesee Or you can just watch what the hell you are doing when you open the door....
Friday I got my 2018 tundra I love it best truck ever made!!
Most reliable truck in the industry hands down.
Mine wasnt.....
Nissan Titan is as well.
@jason Falk Odd exception, my 2017 got the "Seal of Awesomeness" over at Car Complaints Dot Com.
Jason Falk I’m sure it wasn’t 🙄
Ever heard of JD power most reliable trucks....they seem to differ of opinion

Backseat space is good in the Double Cab. We had four adults in the cab on a 3 hour trips to Dallas. Everybody was comfortable and had plenty of leg room and head room.
I'm confused on why Toyota has that 2 level floor in the rear. Can't they make it a simple flat floor?
Sacapuntas previously, the rear seats were able to travel/adjust/recline giving passengers real comfort and child seat adjustability.... now, they fold up. Good job toyota, way to follow the pack smh.
Yes, I had a 2008 Limited Crewmax. I have no problem with the new way the seats fold up, it really gives more space, but there is no purpose of the raised floor. There is just foam under there. If it was flat like the F150 it would be much much more useful.
And now you can't store anything but possibly a newspaper under the rear seats. And not a very thick one at that. The old style had storage under and behind the seats.
Love my Tundra Cremax with the TRD Pro Exhaust. Do a review of the TRD Pro Tacoma now, please.
Congrats Dave on this truck. I agree with you 100%. This vehicle along with 4Runner need a redesign like asap.
I would consider buying this truck but the MPG is laughable. I’m not one that’s pro brand, but just looking at the Tundra it seems old. I’ll definitely consider it in a year though.
I own a 2004 f150 and every negative about a tundra is still an upgrade to me.
considering trading in my 5th gen 4runner & my 03 F150 for one of these in 4WD...maybe the Off-Rd trim...kids moving out of my house, loving the huge inside room...and i cant afford a Land Cruiser...
There's something hollow sounding about those doors when he opens them.
Trucks are HUGE sellers. Just found your channel. Would love a truck channel.
Why do they sound hollow like an empty beer can when you close a door?
My 04 is solid.
Go slam the door of any new truck....they all do it.
What the tundra lacks in my opinion is extra storage and a proper bedliner.
Best reviewer ever I swear
Great review Dave!
GREAT reviews and thanks for a ballpark figure in price
I own a 2018 Titan, but also owned a 2008 Tundra. It definitely drove like a car and had plenty of power. However, i do like my new Titan (also owned a 2004 Titan).
A fine truck but with a bed that small you might as well get a Sequoia.
Thats why i have the long bed (8') double cab. Anything less than an 8' bed wont work for me.
js, If I was paying for a 3 ton pickup , I would want to be able to haul a sheet of plywood.
I know. The short beds on the 4 door trucks today are absolutely worthless.
Looks weird with a painted rear bumper and chrome up front
Tundra is terribly outdated like the tacoma and 4runner in terms of modern fuel economy. but i can appreciate Toyota's reliability (to a point).
The only thing I wish this truck has was the shifter on the collem
Floor shifter is an option.
Six feet bed in the back of the pickup for fishing equipment.
I'll wait for 2019 to see if a New truck comes out or a Pond Test ............ Ice test???
Why are you reviewing the 2018‘s aren’t the 2019’s out ?
Because I'm a small UA-cam channel and I don't get the latest vehicles yet.... and as you heard in my introduction, this was my FIRST TRUCK loan. I'm still paying my dues and proving my worth. Besides, some people are search for 2018 reviews and they want to hear my pov.
Pay 50 plus grand for 1794 edition Tundra...lacks remote start and must use key to lock tailgate. No way!
Having to lock the tailgate with a key is not an issue for me. For me, I do not like prox key entry or push button start. I dont open my tailgate when I'm in the cab, so I have my keys in my hand. All the tech in new vehicles these days leads to hacking. Check into prox key repeaters that theives are using to break into vehicles. They cam sniff your prox key in the house from your front door and use another device near the vehicle to open and start it. So, Tundra's low tech is a security plus.
Be a man. Use your hands.
FYI, no temperature controls in back seats.
elbow few matter set favorite until parking even join invitation investor only model distribute.
It ticks all the boxes 99.9% of truck owners need. No argument there.
Great vid 🤙🏽
Needs new electronic update and needs an 8 foot bed with the crew max and I’ll get it for sure till then it’s hard to justify. Great video though

so...you gonna bring that to the ORV park? lol :D
When the next tundra generation come out ?
Fall of 2020 as a 2021 model year for the Tundra, a new 4Runner follows 2 years after in fall of 2022
It’ll probably be a hybrid, as Ford is planning that as well.
Like for that song at the beginning!
Actually you had both first an second gen Honda Ridgelines so it's not your first truck
12mpg average, Toyota should be ashamed!
If you can afford to burn gas, that's out of the equation.
Almost a year late. ............
If you're going to do a real world review show the actual payload numbers and the actual tow numbers too bad the gas mileage suffers
Toyota #1
"Toyota" please get rid of that "angled- in" back bumper, it just looks weird, just go back to squaring it off.
No one ever mentioned about rear bumper it looks weird to,I can't get over since it came out 2014.
Terrible mpg, even for a truck. 4.10 rear end hurts mileage
It is a 4.30 rear end
As always, great review, keep up the great work Dave!
Sadly outdated. It was the best truck 10 years ago but now it's just MEH.. Come one Toyota!!!!!!!!!!
And I guarantee that you don't own one...
the door handles sound like fusty old grain bin..
Hmmm, Ram offers more trims than Toyota. Having that said, the person doing the comparison contradicts himself. Most buyers will do their research and purchase a truck for what they need it for. Not take the highest Toyota trim and compare it with the lowest Ram trim.

A little bird told me the new Tundra is going to have hybrid technology as an option, somehow paired with a V6.
And he bought an F150 for his family member. So....
10 year ago it was a great truck, so many ways its made cheaper, makes me want to sell my 2018 tundra and go buy an older one again :(
Very outdated truck, but it will outlast all of the competition without a doubt.
SHUT UP with all that "out dated" nonsense. It's a Truck....the Big Three are trying to turn their trucks into BMWs....UPDATES=PROBLEMS
Brand new and it looks 10 years old on the outside and 15 years old on the inside.
Only people buying this are Toyota fan boys.
Fine by me..lol. Im old school and dont like a lot of bs.
You have to pardon our requirement for bullet proof reliability.
Kinda like all the assholes that buy Fords because they buy into the hype during football games on tv that they are "The best selling truck for umpteen years." Of course they sell a bunch of them. You have to buy 3 to last as long as one Toyota.
At least the truck is NOT AMERICAN, that’s a plus.
It's made in Texas lol
^ Robert Holmes the type of guy always pushing on doors marked, “Pull”.
I like how it came in last place behind the other foreign truck from Nissan...right where it belongs
Too bad they gave you such a stripped down model...
That is all anybody needs.
Nice truck. However!! 13mpg..ouch!!! My f150 avg 18mpg city.
An equally equipped tundra will cost thousands less than an f150 or Chevy. Sure, it's not good in gas bit you can AFFORD that gas with the reduced price AND the reliability of a Toyota.
Japanese people dont bow like that. Relax I'm not crying racism. Just letting you know.
youdownwithdjp_yeahyouknowme what are talking about?!
JD Power shows the Chevy Silverado ...I'm not sire where the fanboys get Tumdra is superior... lack of technology, like Atari to me.
I like trucks to perform. Tow my boat, my trailers filled with trees, stone, supplies. I get dirty. Should I pay extra $10,000 for a luxury interior...on my truck? Cover yourself In dirt and sweat for 10 hrs, jump In and start playing with your tech/interior... In 2 hours it will have dirt engrained, scratches, mud, etc. Then have the transmission pop out of park? And electrical problems. Or should I get a toyota?
Don't get me wrong, I love rams, used 2500s and 3500s for work for years...beasts. however, moral of the story...different flavors, different people. They all have pros and cons depending on what you need it for.
I love everything Toyota and for the past 27 years have only purchased Toyota (only 1 car at a time, I am not rich by no means). My dream garage would have a Tundra, Venza, Sienna, and a Prius (funny, being I am a single male). I will say this, my dream car a Toyota Venza Limited, completely blacked, out was totaled when a tree fell on it and myself three years ago. Unfortunately, the tree fell from The City and County, thus they were not responsible for any damages. I miss my Venza, but I do have a great Prius.
Not a real truck Toyota just cant get it done in a real world environment
Michael Carter explain how it’s not a “real truck”
I've seen 40 year old Toyota Trucks in 3rd world countries so overloaded with cargo that it should have been loaded on a semi driving daily on unpaved roads and they aere still just as reliable as the day they were bought. Watch Top Gear's: To kill a Hilux episode to get an idea of how rugged those trucks are. Poor countries and militias will mount a 50 cal or AA guns to the back and literally take them into battle. Meanwhile 95% of F-150s never leave the well paved suburbs and highways and still don't last as long as a Toyota would.

Taekwando, lul
boring truck, check out the new Ram!
RAM? Really? Those are the Most unreliable trucks in the World and you want to compare that to a Tundra?. Have some respect man.
It's a sorry outdated , cant tow as much as a modern truck or go as far on less fuel. Now wonder in the 11 yrs they might of sold 1 million where ford , Chevy sale almost a million every yr. Because most poeple want a modern truck. The reviewer bought his dad a king ranch f150 if that Carrie's any weight. In not a outdated gas drinking unpowered truck
I would rather have a 2018 Ford F 150 XLT extended cab 4x4
no wonder they sell so few tundra's. Loyal customers only but otherwise it sucks.
F-150 KING OF TRUCKS could be a follower and just get a Ford like the rest of the zombies. Lol. Take the Tundra any day of the week over a cookie cutter F150
na don't need a outdated cheap gas guzzler which cant work hard like a ford..
lol..the bed is stronger than any one ..
Jack Z typical chevtard comment...lmao
I agree with F 150 king of trucks the truck is outdated gas guzzler I owned a 2014 Toyota Tundra the best thing I did was sell that and buy an F150 2017 Lariat
Tundra is an ugly truck
Nice truck if you can afford the fuel. Not a family vehicle. Buy a Sienna, it's awesome space, better fuel, in fact we call it our truck with everything we are able to haul. Just have your mulch delivered and you won't need a truck.
yup
