    I had a 2025 SR5 TRD sport. Not a bad machine but it was pathetic with a 20 gallon fuel tank. That’s on me for not doing my homework. I traded it for a 2025 Platinum TRD off road and I’m in love with this truck! I would have stayed with a Tacoma. My 2016 died at 211,000 miles. All mine. But I just couldn’t argue the price and interest rates compared to the Tacoma. It was time.

    FYI, the engine recall is not from oil starvation to the main bearings, its machining debris that is destroying the main bearings

    • @AutomotiveAnonymous208
      @AutomotiveAnonymous208  3 місяці тому +1

      My understanding is that the debris is eventually blocking the oil channels which then starve the bearings. But I have no clue. There’s also the theory that is a cop out reason blaming manufacturing rather than poor engineering elsewhere. 🤷‍♂️ Also aren’t there Tundras built around mid 2024 after the recall that are also failing?? I hope they figure it out soon because I really like this new body style!! Thanks for watching and providing more context!

    The truck doesn't have the features of a 2025 Toyota Tundra, which are standard in the highest-trim 2025 Toyotas. I actually thought that all the highest-trim tundras came with a spray-on bed liner, but this one has just the composite bed liner.

      I’m sorry about any confusion, in my video I briefly say this is a used example and the asterisks is explained in my description. This is a recently built 2024, I titled the video the way I did so that anyone currently looking for a new Tundra and watching videos is less likely to miss the engine recall concern, since most other Tundra review videos for 2024 came out months ago before the recall was published.

    Lack of 4wd Auto, remote start (with key fob) inconsistency and still having engine failures in 24’s and even some 25’s is unsettling. I’m a Toyota enthusiast, but an F150 is probably going to replace my 15 Tacoma later in 2025. If the rumored 35% reduction in MSRP actually happens for Ram’s in 2025, that may be an option too even though I’ve never been a huge fan of previous Ram’s.

      @AutomotiveAnonymous208  4 місяці тому

      That’s a good point, there’s actually a few more subtle changes for the 2025 beyond those main ones mentioned. But no, this is a late build 2024, in the video I briefly mention it’s used and also document this in the description. I’m sharing this for 2025 as the brief overview and potential warning for those considering a 2025, since the engine recall issue happened after the 2024s already started coming out. Also not knowing when anyone else will address this on the new year Tundra videos now that they’re probably being assembled but some potentially buyers might not be aware of this. And because I can’t assume most of my viewers stay up to date with the latest articles and concerns regarding potential major problems like the engine failures of a random platform. I’m sorry about any disappointment in the year and not mentioning those features as this likely wasn’t the video you were intending to watch and learn from.

    • @AutomotiveAnonymous208
      @AutomotiveAnonymous208  2 місяці тому

      That’s a good question. Honestly, every truck and manufacturer have their minor flaws and it’s tough to speculate what truck has the best chance to meet or exceed your expectations. I personally use to love GM trucks, simple push rod V8 designs that were easy to modify. But since they’ve been having lifter failures and transmission issues, and other brands have had equivalent issues I say drive what makes you happy. If I were to buy a truck today it would be a Tundra for the looks, turbo engine for high elevation, and the roll down window. Or it would be the 5.0 F-150 with plans to modify or Whipple Supercharger down the road. Or a very used TRX haha.
      I’m sure my thoughts and opinions aren’t exactly what you’re looking for, but best of luck!!

      It still feels like a truck, high 4x foot turning circle. Basically plan turning accordingly to avoid 3 point turns. But this did drive noticeably better than other full size trucks I’ve driven. Probably partially because it’s not as lifted and more comfortable suspension, which unfortunately does come with the lower payload rating.

  • @meadmaker4525
    @meadmaker4525 Місяць тому +2

    It's a beautiful truck. I particularly like the 1794 edition. But Toyota have destroyed their reliability with these engine issues. So, besides the fact it's ridiculously, laughably, stupidly overpriced, I'd never even consider it. I've had my Hemi Ram for 9 years with zero problems. I'd love to upgrade, but now Ram have ditched the Hemi in favor of the BMW B58...sorry "hurricane" I6 leaf blower, so they're out of the running. Don't like the F150 series at all. Would love to have an F250, but they're even more money. GM makes a good truck and the recent interior redesign looks nice, but the exterior styling of the trucks hurt my eyes. I hear the Nissan Titans are being discontinued and are a pretty good deal right now, but I'm not sure that's an upgrade (although they're supposedly the most reliable truck on the road, numbers wise). So, I'm stuck waiting until someone comes out with a truck worth buying that doesn't require a mortgage to purchase. I suspect I'm gonna be driving my Ram for quite some time.

    I don't know how I survived reaching that 16 inches to open a tailgate over the decades. You probably just voided the warranty on that truck by driving aggressively. It was time logged in the trucks computer. The windows are cool until you need to dish out the money to replace it. Too much technology to break in 10 years in vehicles nowdays. Is taking a chance with all the technology and complicated drive train worth $70k? Ford 5.0 are a dime a dozen in junk yards but a few house payments for Toyota TT V6.

    Toyota lost me as a future 1/2 ton customer when they ruined the appearance of the Tundra in 2014, and it's all been downhill from that point. The downhill slide continued when they replaced the V8 with the TT V6... I'll just keep driving my 4.7L 2002 and my 5.7L 2007, both aRE SR5 models without all the bells & whistles and both were paid for years ago.

      I’m probably biased towards the Tundra because I use to really like Toyota trucks and have owned a few. But I will say in driving this one the 10 speed shifts pretty quick and the vertical rear window is pretty cool. Also I think these can look a lot better than most other trucks currently sold (depending on cab/bed/trim/color configuration). But I’m sorry you’ve not had the best experience like so many others on this new platform. 😔

      @@AutomotiveAnonymous208 I love the power,and the rear window. I gave the truck to my wife and got a new Silverado zr2 1500. The chevy is better in every way except for power but the duramax gets better mpg

    You shouldn’t review 2022 and up Toyota tundra are piece of shit or junk and over price. I love my 2014 TRD of road is way better then a new style. They don’t know to put the tow hook on the truck. Don’t waste your money on a new one folks.

    You’re not being honest🫢 Every mile seems to be luck. Not a truck you would chance buying used without an extended warranty.🫣
