Thanks for your review. I owned a 2021 Toyota Tundra Limited sold for a nice profit a year later. I bought a 2024 Toyota Tundra SR5 Crewmax three months ago and hope my gas mileage improves. I do love the engine. Nice surge in power and nice cruising speed. I am a fan of the spacious and comfortable interior. I have the blueprint color and added some black Regina alpha midnight wheels, go rhino running boards and a Leer quad fold tonneau cover. I wish the front and rear bumpers were made of stronger materials. I love my Toyota! I am 85 years old so this could be my last truck. I am hopeful I can buy a 1794 in three years. God bless.
First time viewer here...Great review and glad to hear no probs minus the disappointing milage. Love my 2024 Tundra coming from a 5.4L F-150. More power/torque, quieter, better fuel economy, and better trans (my Ford tranny went south at 120K:( Thanks for adding the scriptures and God Bless!
@@joearnold1843 sure, I bought a 2022 Toyota Tacoma Trd off-road and after 20,000 miles I couldn’t stand it. What an absolute dog and the transmission was absolutely garbage.
@@DUNEATV, OH, I see, you like to compare apples to oranges, and stand behind your Mexican made truck. Comparing a Tacoma to a Tundra is a joke at best!!! Nevermind how many 700,000 -1,000,000+ miles Tundra's and still running on the road today. All my Tundra's, (4), were designed and built in San Antonio, TX, as well as my RAV4 built in KY, and my Hyundai Sante Fe built in AL. The American big 3 are simply foreign built pieces of crap sporting the emblems of old. I stopped buying them when they stopped building and sourcing parts from Mexico.
Be careful with the washable air filter. I had one for years and then I accidently put to much oil on the the filter after I cleaned it. The oil got sucked in the the intake system and the throttle got stuck wide open. After this, I went back to the paper filter.
16k miles on mine. I avg 16.2 mpg on mine. Slightly wider AT tires, plus cat cover. Stock suspension set up. Happy to report zero issues with new TTV6. Coming from 2, 2nd Gen 5.7's, this new TTV6 is much more snappy and happier at highway speeds. Very happy with it so far. I can live with the mpg. JUST GIVE ME TOW HOOKS!! 😅
15 mpg😮!!! I have a 2015 Tundra w/ the 5.7 and I get 13-14 mpg in city. I’m not a fan of the new V6 from Toyota and one of the biggest selling points Toyota made was mpg. Hopefully the EPA allows manufacturers to bring back the V8 because this new V6 isn’t as advertised. The new Land Cruiser also has this same V6 engine and it’s the same/close to same mpg as the Tundra.
2022 Tundra TSS Offroad 33,000 miles zero problems other than the recalls. 5000 mile oil change intervals. My mileage in town driving reads 18.6mpg, best I have done on the highway is 23.2
I'm a '23 Tundra TRD Pro owner and loving it. You mentioned the Air filters in this and the oil change video... any possibilities for a video on washing & "re-oiling" the filters that are capable of doing so? I believe mine has the TRD air filter which evidently is washable. Thanks for everything you're doing.
With oiled air filters you need to be sure you don't over oil them. Mass air flow sensors start having issues when they get coated in excess air filter oil.
Thanks for watching! If I go with a re-usable filter I can def show the washing/ oiling process. I am a bit skeptical though.. I'd like to know more about aftermarket "dry" filters..
I daily a Corolla cross for the mpg and reliability. It calls for 0-16 and 10,000 mile intervals. I’m at about 9000 miles and on the 4th oil change after sending the factory fill oil out for an a analysis at 600 miles. Let’s just say nobody should be going 10,000 especially on a brand new motor. The amount of silica and wear metals were crazy until it got past 6000 miles. I’m gonna send the current stuff out when I change it at 10,000 miles or 4000 on the oil and I’m hoping to see the metals down to acceptable levels.
@Anonymous-sy2nh Still no issues with any of our twin turbo tundra! 🤞 I just posted another video with over 50k miles and still running great. No rattles, noises, etc. I will keep posting updates.. good, bad or ugly ! Please subscribe if interested. God bless
Apparently there is a design flaw with the main bearing setup in our motors and all will inevitably see catastrophic failure by 100k. Hope it isn’t true. Not pattern to when it happens. Some report 10k. Miles some 55k miles. But all comes out to the same main bearing being burned out. Some people also have reported it fixed, others had said it’s happening in the 2024s.
Thanks for the video. The air filters are smaller - cost if roughly half of the old thick ones. Cost is close to the 5.7. I'd recommend sticking with stock.
The trans is slightly 'clunky' before it warms up, but that is true of most automatics in my experience. The fluid needs to get up to operating temperature to work silky smooth
I would never use a KN product. Watch project farms air filter video. They were the worst for allowing large particles into the engine! I dont know about you but I want the sandpaper kept out!
Only time (miles) will tell !! I am a big fan of the Toyota 4.7 V-8s, VERY reliable, many documented at over 1M miles. I also really like the toyota 3.4 V-6 found in the older tacomas and 4 runners. EXTREMELY reliable and a good balance between power and fuel mileage. My personal prediction is that these new 3.5 twin turbo engines will NOT last as long.. unfortunately. Turbos are great for making power, but it does come at a cost. More cylinder head pressure puts a strain on things and they heat up the engine oil a lot more. This in combination with the excessive emissions systems that manufacturers are forced to place on new engines will likely affect the longevity of this engine. I hope I'm wrong !! ..but I guess we'll find out in a few years time.
Own a 2023 tundra limited Trd lunar rock ..motor and tranmission amzing …lots of cheap plastics and poor fit and finish …after only 5000km rear exterior window rubber trim shrinks and comes off … the black piano finish Center console scratchs so easy it will look terrible only after a couple of weeks …the inner front inner wheel wells are made of a sort of cloth like material that is terrible to clean grass and mud off of …I would take a hard pass on buying one so many cheap fitting things on it ..if you really look close enough you will see them …buyer beware
Toyota fanboy here and just so happened to come across your channel. And then....you started off by sharing scripture...SOLD! You gained a new subscriber. Keep the updates coming, bro 👊🏻
You mirrored my thoughts exactly, I don't have a new tundra, but I got a 2016 tundra😁, a 2010 Camry(first daughter) a 2008 Rav4(second daughter)and a 2016 highlander(wife units vehicle of choice)
Just bought a 2012 tundra 5.7 v8 crew max. Has a lift kit with aftermarket rims. Get about 10.4 mpg. 140k miles. Runs like brand new. Don't care about the gas mileage as much. I always wanted a dependable truck with no issues. That's what I got 🤙 wish they stuck with the v8 engines for the newer models. It's unfortunate.
It's all in how you drive. The more aggressive you are in the starts and stops the faster your mileage drops. If you're a calm driver not in a rush you can easily get 18+ in the city and 21+ highway.
You got to remember how much more power this thing makes for the MPG compared to the old 5.7. Just like the Ford eco boost, it’s all about driving style. I’ll get 17-18mpg in an eco boost and my dad gets 23 -24lol
I have always owned tundras. And I'm skeptical If these new engines can last as long as 5.7 My current tundra is a 2015 that I bought new and I'm currently sitting at 382000 miles on it 0 issues. My last tundra I put on 304000 miles again 0 issues. I'm hoping these new engines can at least last that long. I'm waiting to see the long javity on these before I. Potentially buy one
You should have no problem Getting what I've gotten so far And more Take care of them keep up on the maintenance and Preventive maintenance Should last.
Same here I jave a 2008 5.7 tundra work truck pulls a 6 thousand pound trailer every day and im at 482k miles and only thing I have repaired is thr right front wheel bearing and 2 o2 sensors. Love it and I want the new Interior but I'm unsure about this new motor
The engine should be ok for the same mileage, although its possible for premature wear. Doubt the turbo/ wastegate/ manifold combo will last 200k, and it will probably be 3-5k installed.
These turbo V6’s will require more maintenance. Can probably go 200-300K miles but will require more maintenance - possibly 2-3X. Just being realistic.
Correct look at your dip stick. I stick with Toyota oil filter. I don't tow, but I run on 87 on fuel now and getting 24mpg on HW 17 to 19mpg on normal driving in city. I don't floor my gas peddle. I brought my 23 SR5 TRD 4x4 Crew MAX in May 2023 (2mile on speedometer) and my milage now is 17k. Did my first Oil change at 1200k miles. Oil change done at every 3.5k or 5k depend on my long distance driving. Oct 2023 drove from TX to Yellow Stone National Park then near Jackson Hole and to Idaho City. After Idaho City straight down to Moab and Arches National Park without a hiccup. My next trip is to drive to Alaska with my Tundra June 2024.
Do not put washable filters in it.. especially in dusty environments. My 5.7 tundra and 4.0 tacoma both had dirt in the intake from them. Especially on turbocharged engines. Filters were oiled regularly. They just don’t filter as well.
The market has mislead people with the idea that V6 Turbo engines will get better gas mileage. The smaller displacement is not for fuel economy its for emissions.
"Heavy on the throttle", a heavy load, stop and go driving, and lots of 4WD; why would you expect the MPG's to be as good as average, when the mpg tests are done on dynos?
I've got a 23 Tundra 1794 4x4. I'm getting 18 in city. 22 on highway. I literally just pulled a 3 horse slant bumper pull back to Texas from Tennessee. I was kinda on the line with how it would pull. The trlr was fully loaded too. We ran threw the mountains running 70 plus with absolutely no problem! Fuel mileage was around 10 mpg. On the flat highway, around 13 to 14mpg. This trk pulled better and harder than any 3/4 ton trks I've ever owned. Super satisfied! I do have air bags from factory. The ride was smooth as silk. It definitely out pulled my 18 Tundra hands down. Don't be scared of these trks. The quality is still Toyota. We can just get there a lot quicker. And definitely in style.
I’m happy Toyota owner for 50 years and counting. I and my family members all prefer Toyota and Lexus over any other brand for our needs. It’s not only about the vehicle but more importantly, the dealers network, spare parts logistics, low cost of maintenance, reliability and longevity of Toyota brand.
Washable filters suck. They don’t filter as good, they are more expensive, you gotta wait for them to dry, and they get oil on the MAF making it read wrong and your truck run incorrectly.
I agree. I've run both K&N and S&B. I went to two filters so I could 11:18 avoid the cleaning, drying, oiling cycle wait. Very easy to over oil. I clean the paper filters by vacuuming and blowing toward the air intake side then replace when they aren't cleaning well. Avoid silicates in the engine and confirm with oil analysis. My 22 Tundra has easy to service intake boxes which encourages filter access/cleaning.
About the MPG, I think that is a good mileage and many people that I know seem to get a similar gas mileage. This is a heavy truck and the only way you can get the advertised or close to the advertised gas mileage is if you feather the gas pedal. It is a heavy truck. They put overbuilt parts, so it will still last more than the 1/2 ton trucks from the Big3. I bet if I had the same gear ratio in the back and the 10 speed tranny on my 21 Tundra, I would get the same mileage as your truck. You basically are getting the 10% better economy than I get mainly because of the 10 speed tranny.
Use PREMIUM GAS when towing/hauling. The full HP and Torque numbers are tested with Premium gas as per owners manual. Same thing on the 5.7 V8. I’m getting between 17-23 mpg on my 5.7 V8 with Premium gas. I drive around 110 miles a day between 35-55 mph speed limit roads. Try it for 3-4 full tanks until it adjusts. If not, go back to regular.
We had a 2014 Forester manual ordered from Japan for the Midwest market and it started eating oil at 10/12k miles. Sold that thing off at an Acura dealership for a Toyota 4Runner and drove 235k miles trouble free. Proofs in that pudding.
Loving my 2022. When I go on road trips, I have always added Lucas Fuel Treatment. The bottle more than pays for itself at today's gas prices always adding a minimum of 1mpg, but often much more. I also resist the use of my right foot and use the very handy radar cruise to assist my mileage. I would be interested in seeing if a reusable filter adds MPG's or other performance. I know some manufacturers have frowned on their usage for such issues as mass flow air sensor probs. I admit to using my truck 99.8% of the time in ECO mode, but it still is quite snappy if I need it to be.
Ford and GMC fanboy here and just ran across your channel. I really enjoyed watching your video and it was very informative. Thanks very much for sharing and hope you have a great day 👍
I had a 2020 tundra 5.7 had a 2.5 lift with 35s and a heavy off-road bumper from c4 ,so I’m sure aerodynamics were crap after that but I got 12mpg. Anyway anybody running 35s with a small lift what mpg are you getting on the new tundra
I don't recommend oiled filters on a boosted engine. The turbos tend to suck the oil from the filter and coat the intake and turbo with a film of oil, is it hurting anything? Don't really know, but I don't like it. Previous owner had one on the 5.9 Cummins I used to have. When I took it apart, there was a film of oil coating the intake and compressor wheel. Ended up buying an S&B intake with replaceable paper filters. Totally worth it.
If you guys are only getting 50k out of brakes and that bad of mileage it’s the driver.. my 5th gen 4 runner is at 40k miles and still has 75% brake life remaining.
I agree to an extent. If the truck has to work, it is usually hard to get long life out of components and good fuel economy. I get better than sticker fuel economy on my 4runner, but my tundra does get worked towing, hauling, and off-road work. I do, however, know people that complain about fuel economy and then when I ride with them😬.
I live in the mountains of WV, not as impressive as Colorado but I'm averaging 18.2 city and up to 24 on the highway unladened. I'm leasing it currently and on the fence on whether on not I'll buy it when the lease is up.
That’s not bad mpg compared to my 2020 Tacoma TRD Off-road. I get 12-13 mpg around town on a stock truck with an RSI SmartCap on the back. I can get 20 on the highway. At least the Tundra has enough power. I can’t say that for my Tacoma.
Toyota did have oil consumption issues with the 2AZ FE in 2007 ish but since have learned their lesson. The 2GR FE uses 0w20, and the new A25A-FKS usss 0w16 and i believe 0w6 in the latest models, so far its going well for them but we will see with that 0w6 stuff.
That's what we're here to find out! So far this one has 40k Miles of hard work with no major issues. I imagine this truck has some of the highest mileage of any 2023, so I will continue to report our findings!
Have a 2012 5,7 Tundra. Incredible truck, wouldn't take a 6 cylinder turbo if it was given to me. Engine failures galore, small back seat so much bad about it.
Do not put a k&n filter on your work/offroad truck. They don’t trap dirt like the oem filter and will blow right through. They do give a better response though. But Oem filters are $20 each and you change them every 20-30k miles. It is not a high consumable item. It literally is cheaper than an oil change. Also use oem oil filters, they are $5. You maybe saving a dollar.
Hmmm.. 0 is how the oil operates at start up but acts like a 20 once warm. You said onces it warms the oil gets thinner and starts leaking. Correct me if I'm wrong but onces it gets warm the oil is the top number weight "20". The leaking in other brands isn't becuase the oil was too thin rather than bad engineering to keep the tolerances tight enough or bad seals etc...
It acts as a 0 wt oil when cold but acts as a 20 wt when hot. a 20 wt oil when hot is still thinner than a cold 0 wt oil so 0w-20 is still thinner when it’s warm than when it’s cold.
You're correct about the numbers, but all oil still gets thinner as it heats up... and also as it deteriorates. Think of what oil looks like pouring out of a new container compared to a drain pan full of waste oil. Maybe the 0 weight isn't too blame all the time, but I did see a lot more oil consumption issues in new vehicles when they started using it. Just my observations ! God bless
Clearances had nothing to do with it. HTHS 2.7 or higher is needed to keep wear at a minimum! That is where 0w20 starts, the 10k oil change kills that if you are in stop and go, dusty conditions, or towing! In fact, your owners manual will tell you if you do any of these things the oil change is required every 5k. People doing these thing and going 10 k is the reason for all the problems. Change it every 5k regardless to be safe. The owners manual will also say if you tow, dusty conditions, are stop and go that a high viscosity is bette suited. I would run 5w30 and nothing else, and don’t come back about beating clearance because when you say that I know you don’t know what you are saying. Also the oil pump will supply the oil to where it needs to be with 5w30 just as good as 0w20. TGMO has a lot of VII’s and it is known to shear down quickly.
Appreciate the scripture, follower of Jesus as well, I have a 18 Tundra with 5.7, average about 15.5, at this point I can’t justify buying a new tundra with smaller engine, not to mention the looks of the new Tundra.
Good review. Forums are full tards saying 30k and it will blow. My 23 has been perfect as well. I think its the medication these folks take. They read something and then its their story. Thanks again!
my old 5.7's got 12mpg city but my 24 I-Force Max is getting 18.7 city/23 hwy. My 2013 Ram 1500 gets 15mpg city/22 hwy with the MDS system. But the Ram @ 175k needs a rear-end rebuild & manifolds ($5500). The old 5.7's ran 170-200k without any mech issues. I'm still convinced that gas is the cheapest thing you will ever put in a work truck.
I'm a Toyota fan. I still have a 02 TRD Tacoma that I bought new and is at about 200k miles (I consider that my recovery truck when all else fails). It has never gotten stuck that I/it couldn't unstick by myself. I bought a 2013 Rock Warrior Tundra new and recently sold it to my company as a work truck at 120k miles. It has the 5.7 and the mpg pretty much matched your right foot. The 4:30 (I think) diff was great for acceleration/grades/towing, but not so much for mpg. I replaced it with an F-150 Tremor because I couldn't get the Toyota I wanted and what they had or could order did not have recovery hooks (I think they learned that lesson). I doubt the Ford will last as long as the Toy without major issues, but I am getting good mpg with the Coyote (almost 20 combined after 15k miles) and it is nice to drive. Unless the Tremor proves me wrong though, I will always keep my eye on the Toys. Peace, Love!!
18.3 mpg on my 2023 hybrid tundra since I got it last april. It has done a trailer (4500 lbs ) trip to Vyoming from Washington state. No issues so far enjoy driving it. I am just disturbed with the recalls and how slow Toyota is to respond them.
Gets the same mileage as the 5.7. the car companies are in bed with the EPA to get crap turbos in everything. They have officially switched to parts companies like Chrysler Jeep Dodge ram. Good luck with it.

Never had oil consumption on my 5.7 with 0W-20 either. When I changed the transfer case fluid to Amsoil the time to switch from 2 to 4 improved.

Toyota fanboy here and just so happened to come across your channel. And then....you started off by sharing scripture...SOLD! You gained a new subscriber. Keep the updates coming, bro 👊🏻
You mirrored my thoughts exactly, I don't have a new tundra, but I got a 2016 tundra😁, a 2010 Camry(first daughter) a 2008 Rav4(second daughter)and a 2016 highlander(wife units vehicle of choice)
Thanks brother! Trucks are cool, but God is AWESOME!
So much for making the Hindi, Buddhist, Muslim, and any other non-Christian believers feel welcome.
Dude I said the same exact thing lol
Same
Just bought a 2012 tundra 5.7 v8 crew max. Has a lift kit with aftermarket rims. Get about 10.4 mpg. 140k miles. Runs like brand new. Don't care about the gas mileage as much. I always wanted a dependable truck with no issues. That's what I got 🤙 wish they stuck with the v8 engines for the newer models. It's unfortunate.
Consistently getting 20-22mpg in my 2023. Anybody getting 15 needs to chill
I’m averaging 12.4 mpg in my Capstone. I enjoy it most in tow+ but drive it regularly in tow/haul mode. 😅
I get 18ish.
2024 TRD Pro running eco mode Houston. Avg 17.5 mpg.
It's all in how you drive. The more aggressive you are in the starts and stops the faster your mileage drops.
If you're a calm driver not in a rush you can easily get 18+ in the city and 21+ highway.
I'm at steady 17.5 combined
You got to remember how much more power this thing makes for the MPG compared to the old 5.7. Just like the Ford eco boost, it’s all about driving style. I’ll get 17-18mpg in an eco boost and my dad gets 23 -24lol
I have always owned tundras.
And I'm skeptical If these new engines can last as long as 5.7 My current tundra is a 2015 that I bought new and I'm currently sitting at 382000 miles on it 0 issues.
My last tundra I put on 304000 miles again 0 issues.
I'm hoping these new engines can at least last that long.
I'm waiting to see the long javity on these before I. Potentially buy one
Yeah I want 500K out of my 2014 Tundra 5.7 or more if possible with plans to SC it and I’m at only 140 K miles
You should have no problem Getting what I've gotten so far And more Take care of them keep up on the maintenance and Preventive maintenance Should last.
Same here I jave a 2008 5.7 tundra work truck pulls a 6 thousand pound trailer every day and im at 482k miles and only thing I have repaired is thr right front wheel bearing and 2 o2 sensors. Love it and I want the new Interior but I'm unsure about this new motor
The engine should be ok for the same mileage, although its possible for premature wear. Doubt the turbo/ wastegate/ manifold combo will last 200k, and it will probably be 3-5k installed.
These turbo V6’s will require more maintenance. Can probably go 200-300K miles but will require more maintenance - possibly 2-3X. Just being realistic.
Correct look at your dip stick. I stick with Toyota oil filter. I don't tow, but I run on 87 on fuel now and getting 24mpg on HW 17 to 19mpg on normal driving in city. I don't floor my gas peddle. I brought my 23 SR5 TRD 4x4 Crew MAX in May 2023 (2mile on speedometer) and my milage now is 17k. Did my first Oil change at 1200k miles. Oil change done at every 3.5k or 5k depend on my long distance driving. Oct 2023 drove from TX to Yellow Stone National Park then near Jackson Hole and to Idaho City. After Idaho City straight down to Moab and Arches National Park without a hiccup. My next trip is to drive to Alaska with my Tundra June 2024.
Do not put washable filters in it.. especially in dusty environments. My 5.7 tundra and 4.0 tacoma both had dirt in the intake from them. Especially on turbocharged engines. Filters were oiled regularly. They just don’t filter as well.
Filters are cheap, engines are expensive right? Just pay for what's needed.
The market has mislead people with the idea that V6 Turbo engines will get better gas mileage. The smaller displacement is not for fuel economy its for emissions.
I like the tundra but I’m getting 18-19 in town with my 6.2 sierra.
I absolutely love you start out with scripture.
Also good review. I been thinking about getting one similar to yours actually.
Im pretty sure it's broken in at 35k miles, lol.
"Heavy on the throttle", a heavy load, stop and go driving, and lots of 4WD; why would you expect the MPG's to be as good as average, when the mpg tests are done on dynos?
I've got a 23 Tundra 1794 4x4. I'm getting 18 in city. 22 on highway. I literally just pulled a 3 horse slant bumper pull back to Texas from Tennessee. I was kinda on the line with how it would pull. The trlr was fully loaded too. We ran threw the mountains running 70 plus with absolutely no problem! Fuel mileage was around 10 mpg. On the flat highway, around 13 to 14mpg. This trk pulled better and harder than any 3/4 ton trks I've ever owned. Super satisfied! I do have air bags from factory. The ride was smooth as silk. It definitely out pulled my 18 Tundra hands down. Don't be scared of these trks. The quality is still Toyota. We can just get there a lot quicker. And definitely in style.
I’m happy Toyota owner for 50 years and counting. I and my family members all prefer Toyota and Lexus over any other brand for our needs. It’s not only about the vehicle but more importantly, the dealers network, spare parts logistics, low cost of maintenance, reliability and longevity of Toyota brand.
No engines with bad main bearings yet?
176k on my first gen. Solid 14 mpg no matter what.
Washable filters suck. They don’t filter as good, they are more expensive, you gotta wait for them to dry, and they get oil on the MAF making it read wrong and your truck run incorrectly.
I agree. I've run both K&N and S&B. I went to two filters so I could 11:18 avoid the cleaning, drying, oiling cycle wait. Very easy to over oil.
I clean the paper filters by vacuuming and blowing toward the air intake side then replace when they aren't cleaning well. Avoid silicates in the engine and confirm with oil analysis. My 22 Tundra has easy to service intake boxes which encourages filter access/cleaning.
About the MPG, I think that is a good mileage and many people that I know seem to get a similar gas mileage. This is a heavy truck and the only way you can get the advertised or close to the advertised gas mileage is if you feather the gas pedal. It is a heavy truck. They put overbuilt parts, so it will still last more than the 1/2 ton trucks from the Big3. I bet if I had the same gear ratio in the back and the 10 speed tranny on my 21 Tundra, I would get the same mileage as your truck. You basically are getting the 10% better economy than I get mainly because of the 10 speed tranny.
Sheesh. I have 40k on my 2018 tundra.
Stick with the oem type air filters
Use PREMIUM GAS when towing/hauling. The full HP and Torque numbers are tested with Premium gas as per owners manual. Same thing on the 5.7 V8. I’m getting between 17-23 mpg on my 5.7 V8 with Premium gas. I drive around 110 miles a day between 35-55 mph speed limit roads. Try it for 3-4 full tanks until it adjusts. If not, go back to regular.
Wow subscribed love that you start with scripture
We had a 2014 Forester manual ordered from Japan for the Midwest market and it started eating oil at 10/12k miles. Sold that thing off at an Acura dealership for a Toyota 4Runner and drove 235k miles trouble free. Proofs in that pudding.
Loving my 2022. When I go on road trips, I have always added Lucas Fuel Treatment. The bottle more than pays for itself at today's gas prices always adding a minimum of 1mpg, but often much more. I also resist the use of my right foot and use the very handy radar cruise to assist my mileage. I would be interested in seeing if a reusable filter adds MPG's or other performance. I know some manufacturers have frowned on their usage for such issues as mass flow air sensor probs. I admit to using my truck 99.8% of the time in ECO mode, but it still is quite snappy if I need it to be.
Ford and GMC fanboy here and just ran across your channel. I really enjoyed watching your video and it was very informative. Thanks very much for sharing and hope you have a great day 👍
Wow, my 2010 5.7L V8 gets 14.4 MPG - just a tad under 1 MPG less than yours. I would have assumed at least 4-5MPG difference from Toyota's marketing.
I had a 2020 tundra 5.7 had a 2.5 lift with 35s and a heavy off-road bumper from c4 ,so I’m sure aerodynamics were crap after that but I got 12mpg. Anyway anybody running 35s with a small lift what mpg are you getting on the new tundra
I'm just under 10k miles on my 23 platinum and I'm sitting at 15.2 mpg mostly city miles.
I don't recommend oiled filters on a boosted engine. The turbos tend to suck the oil from the filter and coat the intake and turbo with a film of oil, is it hurting anything? Don't really know, but I don't like it. Previous owner had one on the 5.9 Cummins I used to have. When I took it apart, there was a film of oil coating the intake and compressor wheel. Ended up buying an S&B intake with replaceable paper filters. Totally worth it.
V6 Tundra? Are you stranded? Need a tow? Let me know, I got a V8 SR5 TSS Offroad.
What type of gas octane do you put? 87 or 91?
This company runs 85 octane which is 'Regular' here in Colorado.
I’m getting 13.5 but I’m run 35” 10 plys.
I just can’t get over the sound of the new motor ?? It sounds cheesy and weak 🤦🏽🤦🏽 Just used to the throaty deep rumble of a v8
If you guys are only getting 50k out of brakes and that bad of mileage it’s the driver.. my 5th gen 4 runner is at 40k miles and still has 75% brake life remaining.
Yeah.. I will check them at 50k and see where they're at. Thanks for sharing!
I agree to an extent. If the truck has to work, it is usually hard to get long life out of components and good fuel economy. I get better than sticker fuel economy on my 4runner, but my tundra does get worked towing, hauling, and off-road work. I do, however, know people that complain about fuel economy and then when I ride with them😬.
Toyota makes two types of brake pads. The standard replacement pads are good for 60 to 70 k and the pink made in Japan pads are good for 120k
I live in the mountains of WV, not as impressive as Colorado but I'm averaging 18.2 city and up to 24 on the highway unladened. I'm leasing it currently and on the fence on whether on not I'll buy it when the lease is up.
Aftermarket air filters are junk for the most part. Paper filters are just way more effective at protecting the engine.
That’s not bad mpg compared to my 2020 Tacoma TRD Off-road. I get 12-13 mpg around town on a stock truck with an RSI SmartCap on the back. I can get 20 on the highway. At least the Tundra has enough power. I can’t say that for my Tacoma.
Lemon =engine
Researched and purchased 2024 titan pro4x 5.6 litre drives great
Awesome Tundra 😊 thanks for this video😊
Toyota did have oil consumption issues with the 2AZ FE in 2007 ish but since have learned their lesson. The 2GR FE uses 0w20, and the new A25A-FKS usss 0w16 and i believe 0w6 in the latest models, so far its going well for them but we will see with that 0w6 stuff.
Just a word of advice my friend
I own a Mazda ZX9 with a single Turbo and I had to remove The K&N filter. Apparently turbo didn’t like it
Great video, but what’s with having the lights on?
Nice truck but I don't ever think boosted motors will get good mpgs
arent these tundras known to have alot of issues?
That's what we're here to find out! So far this one has 40k Miles of hard work with no major issues. I imagine this truck has some of the highest mileage of any 2023, so I will continue to report our findings!
Very few of the posters here are mentioning the big engine recall. The only thing I can think of is too much Kool-Aid.
Trash after 20k miles. a lot of noise even the dealer can't fix it.
AMEN BROTHER.
Lead foot. EPA estimates are for driving miss daisy.😂
are you using premium fuel for the 2023 tundra? it needs a higher octane to get the higher mpgs.
USE Ethanol free fuel and you will get 2-3 more MPG.
Prove it
@@dundeeecroc that E free fuel is a $1 more a gal
the reason they went with 0w20 0w8 oil is because of the low friction piston rings.
I am getting 14mpg on my 2014 Tundra DC with 4.6l engine
Any issues with the engine?
Good video
Can you engage 4 hi when driving? This was the common practice for Tundra and Tacomas. Much easier on the acuators. 30MPH was always my sweet spot
Yes, 4 High on the fly ! Up to 65 mph I believe
Cool, how’s it doing now? How many miles and issues thanks..
Up to 40k now. I just did another update video and found a little issue
Have a 2012 5,7 Tundra. Incredible truck, wouldn't take a 6 cylinder turbo if it was given to me. Engine failures galore, small back seat so much bad about it.
Do not put a k&n filter on your work/offroad truck. They don’t trap dirt like the oem filter and will blow right through. They do give a better response though. But Oem filters are $20 each and you change them every 20-30k miles. It is not a high consumable item. It literally is cheaper than an oil change. Also use oem oil filters, they are $5. You maybe saving a dollar.
Hmmm.. 0 is how the oil operates at start up but acts like a 20 once warm. You said onces it warms the oil gets thinner and starts leaking. Correct me if I'm wrong but onces it gets warm the oil is the top number weight "20". The leaking in other brands isn't becuase the oil was too thin rather than bad engineering to keep the tolerances tight enough or bad seals etc...
It acts as a 0 wt oil when cold but acts as a 20 wt when hot. a 20 wt oil when hot is still thinner than a cold 0 wt oil so 0w-20 is still thinner when it’s warm than when it’s cold.
You're correct about the numbers, but all oil still gets thinner as it heats up... and also as it deteriorates. Think of what oil looks like pouring out of a new container compared to a drain pan full of waste oil.
Maybe the 0 weight isn't too blame all the time, but I did see a lot more oil consumption issues in new vehicles when they started using it. Just my observations ! God bless
Clearances had nothing to do with it. HTHS 2.7 or higher is needed to keep wear at a minimum! That is where 0w20 starts, the 10k oil change kills that if you are in stop and go, dusty conditions, or towing! In fact, your owners manual will tell you if you do any of these things the oil change is required every 5k. People doing these thing and going 10 k is the reason for all the problems. Change it every 5k regardless to be safe. The owners manual will also say if you tow, dusty conditions, are stop and go that a high viscosity is bette suited. I would run 5w30 and nothing else, and don’t come back about beating clearance because when you say that I know you don’t know what you are saying. Also the oil pump will supply the oil to where it needs to be with 5w30 just as good as 0w20. TGMO has a lot of VII’s and it is known to shear down quickly.
Appreciate the scripture, follower of Jesus as well, I have a 18 Tundra with 5.7, average about 15.5, at this point I can’t justify buying a new tundra with smaller engine, not to mention the looks of the new Tundra.
NAPA gold are now ChiCom.
Like how they prioritized the Battery Voltage as a display piece on the cluster vs. oh, maybe engine temp?
The display is configurable and engine and trans temp are available. Just depends on which setting.
Good review. Forums are full tards saying 30k and it will blow. My 23 has been perfect as well. I think its the medication these folks take. They read something and then its their story. Thanks again!
my old 5.7's got 12mpg city but my 24 I-Force Max is getting 18.7 city/23 hwy. My 2013 Ram 1500 gets 15mpg city/22 hwy with the MDS system. But the Ram @ 175k needs a rear-end rebuild & manifolds ($5500). The old 5.7's ran 170-200k without any mech issues.
I'm still convinced that gas is the cheapest thing you will ever put in a work truck.
I'm a Toyota fan. I still have a 02 TRD Tacoma that I bought new and is at about 200k miles (I consider that my recovery truck when all else fails). It has never gotten stuck that I/it couldn't unstick by myself. I bought a 2013 Rock Warrior Tundra new and recently sold it to my company as a work truck at 120k miles. It has the 5.7 and the mpg pretty much matched your right foot. The 4:30 (I think) diff was great for acceleration/grades/towing, but not so much for mpg. I replaced it with an F-150 Tremor because I couldn't get the Toyota I wanted and what they had or could order did not have recovery hooks (I think they learned that lesson). I doubt the Ford will last as long as the Toy without major issues, but I am getting good mpg with the Coyote (almost 20 combined after 15k miles) and it is nice to drive. Unless the Tremor proves me wrong though, I will always keep my eye on the Toys. Peace, Love!!
18.3 mpg on my 2023 hybrid tundra since I got it last april. It has done a trailer (4500 lbs ) trip to Vyoming from Washington state. No issues so far enjoy driving it. I am just disturbed with the recalls and how slow Toyota is to respond them.
Gets the same mileage as the 5.7. the car companies are in bed with the EPA to get crap turbos in everything. They have officially switched to parts companies like Chrysler Jeep Dodge ram. Good luck with it.
