My 2008 Tundra crewmax gets 13-15 L/100km @ 120km/hr. At 100km/h the read out bounces around at 11 L/100km. It's thirsty for sure, but I know it will always have my back and sound GREAT!!!
I love my dad's tundra. Insanely reliable, super great 4wd for snow and mud, lots of leg room, can tow well enough and honestly the power is decent and with an air intake it sounds really pleasing！
Ikr, I installed trd pro cold air intake and trd exhaust and it just sounds so sexy, it has that perfect whistle and air intake sound, so I’m glad someone else enjoys that sound off and it really gives you that torque for sure
I have a ‘21 Platinum, my favorite features are the rear window that rolls down and the sound of that 5.7! I’ll take reliability over a few extra MPG’s any day.
ngl i'd rather have a keyed ignition, so when my spinning doritos inevitably do something stupid i can burn up the starter for the sake of getting out of the middle of the road
Absolutely love my 2020 TRD sport, it was $53,000 Canadian as well, still cloth but has dual zone climate control, keyless entry and start as well as the Trd sway bars which help with towing a lot. It’s thirsty for sure and outdated but I like that it’s not on the leading edge of technology, I trust it to be dependable.
Just got a 2021 Limited, fully loaded for $56,000 USD. Absolutely love it! Something about having simple and smooth working electronics makes me like my tundra more. Who needs a tv as a center console🤷🏽♂️

The Nissan Titan doesn't get as much attention as the other trucks, seeing you guys review it would be really interesting. I hardly know anything about it.
Great content as always. You should ask Dodge for a three month long term test. Then Nissan for a six month long term test. Then Chevy for a nine month long term test. See where I'm going with this??? ;)
I went from a 2017 F-150 Lariat to a 2021 Tundra TRD Pro double cab, and the overall experience is so much better in the TUndra. Yes it is old tech...but that's why I love it.
I have a 2018 tundra limited. I added a leitner bed rack. Auxiliary lights, 3 - 2 lift kit, TRD wheels, preditor step rails, cargo boxes on bed rack. 33in ko2. The color is magnetic Grey. Every week I get compliments on my truck. I daily drive it. It has been the best vehicle I bought. Reliability, comfort and power is amazing. I hope you decide on getting this truck. You won't be disappointed. I would love to send pics of my truck to show you what I have done to it. Let me know .
@@krasnaludek298 Ford is a good truck. Reliability is a issue though. If you don't mind going to the service department a lot. I bought an escape (2013). It had an Evo boost for gas mileage. After the 3rd motor was replaced at 34 thousand miles, suspension replaced, sunroof motor replaced, transmission plate fixed, missing bolts. I have service reports as thick as encyclopedia. Traded it in for a Toyota chr. No looking back. Toyota every day for me.
Take my advice as someone who has owned all late model trucks in 1500 and has to tow 9000lbs with them.. Nothing beats the tundra for usable power and stopping power.. nothing beats the durability of the drivetrain of the tundra.. it’s rides softer and because of that is why you get less payload and more sway when towing.. invest the $600 and put airbags in the rear end.. you’ll be able to haul another tundra in the bed while towing a 9000lb trailer and still retain the factory ride when daily driving.. I have 310k. Ike’s on my tundra and 165ish if that is towing 9k lbs to 12k lbs while also running another 1000lbs in the bed.. the brakes can take it the engine can pull it… I’ve had to replace one rear wheel bearing, water pump only cause it was leaking and I had them replace it when doing the alternator just in case.. the rear bearing cause why replace just one.. and that is it… I still daily this truck everyday have not desire to get another vehicle and when my daughter starts driving in another year I’ll hand it down to her cause even after all the abuse it’s been through.. it’s still more reliable then my wife’s last two brand new vehicles.. I take that back.. third.. The only other vehicle I would consider for a 1500 truck that drives nice in the road and is capable towing would be a GMC… not Chevy.. checks are little stiffer sprung most of the time and ride worse unloaded.. but honestly they do bot stop or tow as good as the old tundras for regular less if what paper says.. Ford’s are just broken all around.. the eco boost wil overheat when towing heavy and they ride like shit cause they chase that king of the payload paper tiger number.. Rams Independent rears ride nice however they don’t hold up well over time.. bot major issues but maintenance is much higher and the wear and tear to the drivetrain is much more noticed as everything starts leaking front to back.. I’m sure the new tundra will be 400hp and 450tq super nice interior and exterior.. but even though the economist Ford makes more power and has higher towing in paper then the 5.0 the 5.0 tows way nicer… why? Cause it’s a v8 and no matter how you change it up…. Trucks that do real work need big motors.. those 10speed transmissions do nothing to make up for it either.. turbo charged v6 are for racing v8s are made for work.. Major downside to the tundras when you work them hard.. you have to replace rotors every time you do pads cause no one makes quality rotors for them.. they all warp however even towing you’ll get 50k plus out of the pads..
Hay guys this is JAMAICA again, and i've been watching yore shows for a while But i have never watch your other review SHOW, 'cause i feel like i actually like i really know you 2 😀....i feel like we are all friends just chatting about cars and trucks.....WOW....i love you guys....and yes its because u dont have a life🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣......but i seriously enjoy this "extra" keep it up .......o and i gave everyone of YOUR videos a thumbs-UP👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Actually I drink the Latin American version of Bubbly (H2Oh in Orange and Lemon only) and it is quite neat (it's actually a lot cheaper than the version in The States or The Provinces).
If you drink it solely it's a thing... but if you use it to swap out soda it's for diet and health reasons. Lockdown saw a lot of us get a little too complacent, and lots of people are trying to get back to form now that they can go back out in the world.
It's really nice to see non truck guys especially CANADIAN non truck guys review trucks, there'll be very little if any bias and finally you'd know what the best model is to buy without bitching about other trucks. Also if you want luxury, the ram 1500 is very lush but the Chevy GMC sisters are quite reliable with the 6.2 V8
First of all I love yalls channel and all your reviews. I sell Toyotas in Texas and have personally owned 4 tundras. One of witch was a 2011 4.6L single cab with 314,000 miles. They have been amazing trucks that you can beat up and not feel guilty about. You buy a truck to put it to work right? Not baby it and look good at your local grocery store. My current truck is a 2012 2wd double cab with the 5.7. I have a gooseneck ball and air bags and can comfortably tow about 12k lbs. I tow cars for my dealership all the time with no problems. Also you can get the SR5 with the leather from the factory. It's just a separate package. The SR5 is the build it how you need it trim with a very long list of available options. Also you didn't mention the adjustable height head lights witch are ment to be pointed down if you are hauling something heavy and the truck squats and your front end lifts. 100% tundra all the way. Also resale value is unbeatable.
Another great perk of leasing a new tundra is the free 2 year/25,000 Toyota care. Free oil changes and tire rotations. If you do the 3 year 36k mile lease you maintenance is covered for free for most of you lease. It also comes with the 3 year 36k miles bumper to bumper warranty meaning anything that might happen is covered under warranty for the whole lease. Plus high residential mean low payments.
Time stamp 3:05 I actually prefer a physical key to these push button starters because this way I can put the key into the on position without starting the car and it just gives me more control.
Generally one press without brake will turn on some accessories, 2 presses without brake will turn on all the accessories. Then of course button plus brake to start it
If it’s possible, a comparison with a high trim f150 vs high trim ram rebel vs high trim Silverado 1500 would be solid! Also, good for your own purchasing purposes ;)
This was the best truck on the market, maybe not the best vehicle but definitely the only truly reliable, worry free truck. Then Toyota screwed everything up and replaced this sweet, bullet proof 5.7 V8 for a twin turbo V6 that comes broken from the factory at no extra cost.
I really wanted to like this truck. I read all the reviews. I knew all about it’s horrible gas mileage but something about it’s old school toughness spoke to me. Then you test drive one. And feel all the hard surfaces in the interior. And feel how the shifter is all loose and hard plastic. And they want 50k for it. I’m so glad they are finally doing a new one. Buyers want toyota reliability but the interior needs to match the price tag.
I currently own a 2021 Trail Boss, my previous 3 trucks were all Toyotas (2 Tundras and 1 Tacoma with over 100k miles). Toyotas never once had to go to dealer for anything other than regular maintenance. When my exwife totaled the Tacoma after it had 110k miles and was 7 years old I got a 16k check for it. My Chevy has less than 10k miles and has already been to the dealer for warranty work. Even with that said I love my Chevy so much more than any of the Toyotas. Just more character, more comfortable, and more features.
I love this gen of Tundra. A friend of mine drives a 2008 Limited and holy crap it feels so fast for a big truck even if almost every single modern pickup is faster. It's such a cool piece of machinery
This gen Tundra is essentially the same truck as my '07 with a (very) few upgraded amenities. That said, the design is old as time, but it'll also be around long after the other trucks will have been living in the mechanic's garage more often than your own. It is a very thirsty engine, but on the flip side, it gets 11mpg whether it's towing a trailer or just itself. The tradeoff being simplicity is reliable, aka, if it ain't broke... If you're at all into aftermarket support, the Tundra is like the Lego of trucks. Everybody makes upgrade parts for it!
Can't wait for the Ram review and to see which kne you guys pick. But I think if Ferrarri can get away with an old fashioned key then Toyota definitely can especially since it's less money
Thanks to Toyota for coming out with this Tundra which started everything when it came out with the 5.7 v8 The big 3 got afraid and started building better engines, only the Silverado SS and the Harley Davidson with the supercharger was faster but them 5.4/4.6 or GM 4.8/5.3/6.0 couldn’t touch the iforce 5.7 performance wise
@@garrettstratton8257 rumors are that it's going to have the same power train as the 2022 Land Cruiser...and the next gen Lexus LX and Toyota Sequoia. It's (reportedly) the same engine and transmission as the LS500.
To anyone that doesn’t know much about the Tundra is that Toyota hasn’t not updated or remodeled the Tundra since 2015. The Tundra only has an average gas mileage of 9 miles per gallon when hauling a Small trailer that is 12,000 lbs. Couple of things you should do if you buy the Tundra is to upgrade the suspension, install a led light strip under the tailgate as additional brake light, change the headlights to leds, install diode dynamics fog lights as the are a lot brighter then the stock fog lights, buy and have installed a 3/4 ton rear axle instead of using the stock 1/2 ton rear axle, and finally and most needed is to black out all the chrome parts.
I have a 2020 Tundra Trd pro and I have push to start and every other feature you can get on the Tundra it’s available on the truck they just want you to pay for it. And as far as the light steering feel if I’m not mistaken it has hydraulic steering I hear it every time I turn the car off makes this noise I actually like.
The trail edition doesn't come with offroad shocks. It's basically just an sr5 tundra with 18 inch wheels and mild at tires. The trd suspension which is basically bilstein 4600 shocks is found on thr trd offroad package. They are stiffer than the factory black shocks found on trail Edition and standard tundra
Throttle house is sooooo easy to watch. You don't really need to pay attention too much and you can just enjoy the conversation like your talking to you friends about cars
it doesn’t get bad gas. You get a 4.30 rear end. Most trucks in its class are equipped with 3.23 or 3.73 alongside with an 8-10 speed auto. 6 speed with a 4.30 with 401TQ is where it’s at.
I would love to see more Direct comparisons of cars that are in the same marketshare. Toyota Tundra vs Nissan Titan vs Ford F-150 vs Dodge Ram. Reliable vs Optimal.
Thomas thinks no leather seats is a deficit while I consider it a boon in a utility vehicle. No scratch that. I prefer a great cloth seat in almost everything.
I live in Texas and if I had to get into my tundra with pleather seats I’d burn my ass 9 days out of 10. With my cloth seats I’ve never once thought about how hot those seats are gonna be.
I am content with my 21 Tundra. don’t need fancy shmancy button this button that. 1 button and reliability good enough for this man. 1 12” subwoofer good to go. 🇨🇦
I'm leasing a 2021 Tundra and my fuel mileage is as follows: worst, 10 mpg. best down hill, 30 mpg best level freeway 21 mpg, it all averages out to 15.5 mpg. BTW I can't stop driving it for very long it's just way too comfortable, went to Death Valley when the outside temp read 122 degrees, the inside of my Tundra was a very nice 78 degrees, and there was no sign of overheating, in fact the coolant temp gauge didn't move
Just bought a 2021 limited with the trd package be liner running board etc....this past Thursday. Took 3 weeks to come in. Had to go new since used trucks are through the roof but still over paid compared to what these reviewers say prices should be. $52,500 and about 57k out the door. But I do love it so far. These guys are worried about gas mileage. It's a truck. If your worried about gas buy a crossover or car. Those other 10 speeds and v6 turbos, yea they get better gas mileage but will break down over time especially if you will be towing at all consistently. Look at all the recalls all those other trucks have already and those are basically new trucks. Wait till the have 100k in them and then let's see what bothers you and what doesn't.
In case anyone is curious, that's 11 mpg.
O O F
And I love it.
How much km/l tho
My 2008 Tundra crewmax gets 13-15 L/100km @ 120km/hr. At 100km/h the read out bounces around at 11 L/100km. It's thirsty for sure, but I know it will always have my back and sound GREAT!!!

Just bought one last month in Oklahoma, but they only get about 1 a month to the dealer. Its a rare occasion and you have to buy sameday basically
I just nabbed a 2021 Crewmax Offroad. Had to shop around hard for it.
I bought a 2018 crew max tundra with 50 thousand on the oD for 39k$ here in Florida
I dont watch all your videos but i do watch some and before clicking I was going to skip intro. You got me good in that intro
This gen Tundra is essentially the same truck as my '07 with a (very) few upgraded amenities. That said, the design is old as time, but it'll also be around long after the other trucks will have been living in the mechanic's garage more often than your own. It is a very thirsty engine, but on the flip side, it gets 11mpg whether it's towing a trailer or just itself. The tradeoff being simplicity is reliable, aka, if it ain't broke...
If you're at all into aftermarket support, the Tundra is like the Lego of trucks. Everybody makes upgrade parts for it!
If you thought the F-150 was stiff, you’re gonna need a chiropractor after the RAM.
The Ram 1500 is the best riding half ton truck on the market period.
@@sledforpeace agreed..
Lmfao
@@sledforpeace If you opt for the air ride, it's one of the best riding vehicles. Period. Truck or not.
You are honestly the first person to say that and that’s saying something.
Can't wait for the Ram review and to see which kne you guys pick. But I think if Ferrarri can get away with an old fashioned key then Toyota definitely can especially since it's less money
If u haven’t yet try using the tow/haul option. Night and day personality for the truck
Love the Tundra
Looks like the boys have been hitting the gym! 💪🏽💪🏽 very nice gentlemen.
Thanks to Toyota for coming out with this Tundra which started everything when it came out with the 5.7 v8
The big 3 got afraid and started building better engines, only the Silverado SS and the Harley Davidson with the supercharger was faster but them 5.4/4.6 or GM 4.8/5.3/6.0 couldn’t touch the iforce 5.7 performance wise
2008 over 200,000 miles. Replaced the water pump. Tundra is the definition of reliable.
Got a 2000, that thing has never failed me.
I think the TRD OFF ROAD packaged is good in this truck
Won't the new Tundra get a 3.5L V6 twin-turbo?
yup
Requires premium fuel on the new Tundra.
@@sonar0085 The premium fuel could be a dealbreaker for me.
Supposedly, nothing official has been released on the power train
@@garrettstratton8257 rumors are that it's going to have the same power train as the 2022 Land Cruiser...and the next gen Lexus LX and Toyota Sequoia. It's (reportedly) the same engine and transmission as the LS500.
i wanna see you guys drive the titan XD
Fantastic! I am planning to buy a track as well. I will go with what you guys go
Ram with air suspension should be next. It's what I'm looking into for my towing
Candice is proud
who ?
@@unboar8832 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
😳
@@unboar8832 whos gonna tell him
@@johneldepresso dear God spare his soul
The 2022 Tundra might be the winner, it looks promising
Thomas playing Arnold for a second, good easter egg. Like the channel.
Can't wait for a video on the 2022
I just got myself a Silverado trail boss. Very happy with my choice. The ram has to soft suspension in the back for any actual work.
How much weight are you towing? Would a Durango fit the bill? Alex likes em.
10:00 "About 3300 pounds, with a car in it over 5000 almost 6000 pounds"
To anyone that doesn’t know much about the Tundra is that Toyota hasn’t not updated or remodeled the Tundra since 2015. The Tundra only has an average gas mileage of 9 miles per gallon when hauling a Small trailer that is 12,000 lbs. Couple of things you should do if you buy the Tundra is to upgrade the suspension, install a led light strip under the tailgate as additional brake light, change the headlights to leds, install diode dynamics fog lights as the are a lot brighter then the stock fog lights, buy and have installed a 3/4 ton rear axle instead of using the stock 1/2 ton rear axle, and finally and most needed is to black out all the chrome parts.
Would love to see the Silverado/Sierra.
I have a 2020 Tundra Trd pro and I have push to start and every other feature you can get on the Tundra it’s available on the truck they just want you to pay for it. And as far as the light steering feel if I’m not mistaken it has hydraulic steering I hear it every time I turn the car off makes this noise I actually like.
2021 does. Pump is at the front passenger side of the bay.
Guarantee y’all pick a ram. The interior, the hemi, the options. It’s an unbelievable truck.
"Off-road" suspension is softer, which explains the bouncing while towing. If that really bothers you, try the other non-offroad versions.
The trail edition doesn't come with offroad shocks. It's basically just an sr5 tundra with 18 inch wheels and mild at tires. The trd suspension which is basically bilstein 4600 shocks is found on thr trd offroad package. They are stiffer than the factory black shocks found on trail Edition and standard tundra
The endings on this kill my OCD.... Every. Single. Time.
The rest of me loves the random endings.
Titan. It got a refresh within the last few years.
Throttle house is sooooo easy to watch. You don't really need to pay attention too much and you can just enjoy the conversation like your talking to you friends about cars
it doesn’t get bad gas. You get a 4.30 rear end. Most trucks in its class are equipped with 3.23 or 3.73 alongside with an 8-10 speed auto. 6 speed with a 4.30 with 401TQ is where it’s at.
You guys should do a comparison video with all 6 trucks : Tundra, F-150, Chevy, GMC, Ram, Titan
the key is the only reason it lasted a month outside the house. if it was push start in the gta it would end up in a container shipped somewhere else
You can get pushbutton start in the Tundra.
I don’t understand what’s wrong with the key. I would rather a key than a push start
Push starts are easier and if I had a key start truck, I would at least want one that has a modern key design.
Same. Less unnecessary tech the better.
I would love to see more Direct comparisons of cars that are in the same marketshare. Toyota Tundra vs Nissan Titan vs Ford F-150 vs Dodge Ram. Reliable vs Optimal.
I love the Tundra in all its outdated glory. It may be archaic, but it speaks a language I understand.
Thomas thinks no leather seats is a deficit while I consider it a boon in a utility vehicle. No scratch that. I prefer a great cloth seat in almost everything.
Trucks are working vehicles to me, not luxury.
I consistently find cloth seats more comfortable, personally. When a vehicle I'm looking at has cloth seats, it gets bonus points.
You arent alone there
I prefer leather/vinyl because it's easier to clean...
I live in Texas and if I had to get into my tundra with pleather seats I’d burn my ass 9 days out of 10. With my cloth seats I’ve never once thought about how hot those seats are gonna be.
Love the truck content
Only Extra Throttle House Fans; has a nice ring to it
Don’t worry , my 2018 highcountry has a key to start it too 🥺
My man James looking buff af
I am content with my 21 Tundra. don’t need fancy shmancy button this button that. 1 button and reliability good enough for this man. 1 12” subwoofer good to go. 🇨🇦
2:03 lmao Arnold made an appearance, need more of that
Titan, let’s try it out. Or Tundra TRD Sport! Get that bigger sway bar, and better looks.
Although I know I’m stupid for it, I’m so hopefully for the next gen. This gen has looked so old even when it was new. Come on Toyota!
This channel is the "Great Value" version of "TheStraightPipes".
Just wait for the next gen coming out a little bit later
I'm leasing a 2021 Tundra and my fuel mileage is as follows: worst, 10 mpg. best down hill, 30 mpg best level freeway 21 mpg, it all averages out to 15.5 mpg. BTW I can't stop driving it for very long it's just way too comfortable, went to Death Valley when the outside temp read 122 degrees, the inside of my Tundra was a very nice 78 degrees, and there was no sign of overheating, in fact the coolant temp gauge didn't move
Would like to see ya’ll try the Nissan Titan.
Just bought a 2021 limited with the trd package be liner running board etc....this past Thursday. Took 3 weeks to come in. Had to go new since used trucks are through the roof but still over paid compared to what these reviewers say prices should be. $52,500 and about 57k out the door. But I do love it so far. These guys are worried about gas mileage. It's a truck. If your worried about gas buy a crossover or car. Those other 10 speeds and v6 turbos, yea they get better gas mileage but will break down over time especially if you will be towing at all consistently. Look at all the recalls all those other trucks have already and those are basically new trucks. Wait till the have 100k in them and then let's see what bothers you and what doesn't.
I just bought a 2021 f150 lariat and it’s the most comfortable truck I have ever drove I’m surprised that Thomas keeps saying it’s stiff!!!
