Tundra with the 5.7 engine is technically a 3/4 ton truck if you see the youtube tundra deconstructed video. Where Texas Ranchers towed 16000 lb 24ft gooseneck trailers fir 100k miles and they said they never had a truck that would not have broken down steering or suspension within 40k miles. Well Tundra made it 100k miles before they took it apart to the bolts and it had small wear and tear on all parts. If you add a 4th leaf to the rear suspension and make sure you have the transmission oil cooler then you really have a 3/4 ton truck that would outlast any 3/4 truck out there.
I have a 2011 Tundra 2WD 4.6L V8. Love it. I get @ 16MPG until I tow my camper and then I average around 10MPG. Very dependable vehicle. I am getting close to 100,000 miles on it and getting ready to start getting all the 100,000 mile work done. Great video as usual! Thank you sir.
drop transmission pan and replace strainer and fluid with OEM ATF WS, replace rear differential fluid with Toyota recommended grade which is 75w-85 Put engine oil grade that is actual on oil cap, stock OEM spark plugs. If it was lifted delete it and put stock size wheels adjust tire pressure to spec, clean injectors, throtle body and PCV valve, and you will gain 4-5 mpg back with 15-16mpg mix driving cycle with no towing. Long distance drive will have even better mpg.
You're correct, I have a 2017 Crew Max. I pull a 3,000 lbs trailer, 3 people in it, and my bed is full of everything, up to the cottage (600km), I get 14.5mpg on it. We had a 2011 Rav4 with V6, it would take about the same gas to only go about 300km. I saw one of the other youtube channels who just bought a new 2024 Tacoma crew cab, they had a trailer on it, it was getting 11.5mpg when pulling the trailer, 24mpg with two people in it. The channel does the Ike challenge in Colorado. The new Tacoma, I'm not convinced it would be much good if you are planning to pull a trailer or have a load in it. It APPEARS the mileage drops significantly! I'll stick with the 5.7L V8 over any 4 cylinder turbo.
The Rav and Camry both have same engines and problem is check the spark plugs on rear bank that people never change and also lazy afr sensor that Toyota set to not turn on the light to fail inspections but you pay in mpg
I have a 2008 Tundra 5.7 sr5 CrewMax TRD with 189k. Doesn't burn oil. This truck in 16 years has had only 3 major repairs. Secondary air pumps which Toyota reimbursed me 80% of the cost, a starter, and a new rear main seal gasket. That's it. It's possible to get 13 to 14 MPG in the city if you have a very light foot and don't rev it over 2,000 rpms. The engine has a ton of torque if you drive a lot of stop and go traffic there's no need for the RPMs to go above 2200. In my opinion the 5.7 engine in this tundra will outlast every component on this truck. I drive it slow and run full synthetic 0/20. No issues, engine still runs like new
@spiralnapkin . @spiralnapkin hope this info finds you well and helps you. Since this all happened in 2015 from what I remember the following things qualified me to receive 80% help. Having purchased 3 Toyotas, having done all the services at Toyota dealer so there was record, having the pumps go out when my Tundra was just a couple thousand miles past the allotted mileage of the Toyota secondary air pump campaign. Toyota put out a bulletin way back then to warranty that repair cost on all Tundras which fell in their mileage and time frame guidelines. They felt bad because it was so expensive. My Tundra was passed the warranty mileage and time frame set forth, BUT the dealer told me to call Toyota Motor Corporation and explain the situation. Nicest people ever. I sorta begged on the phone for financial help. Because it was my 3rd Toyota purchased, all services were documented at Toyota dealership the Toyota Motor Corporation who gives excellent customer service sent 80% payment to the Toyota dealer and I covered the rest. If you have a newer Tundra you shouldn't have the older designed pumps and hoses. This design was only on the earlier model tundras. Call TMC, maybe they'll help. Good luck
How did you get Toyota to pay 80% of the secondary air pumps? They all and I mean all fail. I had to pay 2k for my 2007 Tundra. I do get 17 mpg in the city. The secondary air pump failure caused my mpg to drop. Sounds like thst trucks sec air pumps are failing to get 11 mpg
@MegaChoo2 Dealership here in El Paso Texas helped me out. They had me call TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION and explain the situation, since my Tundra was just months out of the 10 yr warranty that they covered for tundras with faulty secondary air pumps. What helped me the most was that it was my 3rd Toyota purchased, so I was considered a loyalty customer. TMC paid 80% of the bill which at the time(2018) was 3,600. They replaced everything, with new updated design. Good luck my friend, I hope this message finds you well.
My cousin works the oil patch and has lots of trucks. He says he'd sooner put a few extra hundred bucks in a Tundra for fuel than a few thousand in the Ford's Chevy's, and Doges for parts. A little extra for fuel or a lot extra for parts and lost time in the shop, which do you want?
That was exactly my thinking when we purchased our 2010 SR5 double cab long box 4x4! I have only replaced 2 things, one front brake caliper because the bleeder snapped off, and the block heater cord. And of course brake pads, oil and filters etc.
As a former lifetime Chevy truck driver, I decided that lifters, rust and a host of other problems convinced me to buy a well used 2007 CM with over 200K on the odometer. Now it has almost 240,000 trouble free miles. I'll never buy anything but Toyota. I expect 400K out of .it. Sure it doesn't sip gas but I still got 16.6 on the highway last year on vacation.
I have a 2017 Tundra which has been a great truck. If not driven hard, the mileage fluctuates between 15 and 17 mpg. To save a few bucks on fuel, it would not be worth buying a new truck.
Peter, I have that same model, 2010. That mileage meter you were looking at is not lifetime- if you hold the “info” button in while mileage is displayed, it will reset to “0”. As you drive, it will change. You can reset it to keep track of avg. mileage per tank if you want. Works kind of like a trip odometer but for mileage not miles. I have always gotten 15-16 mpg in mine which is all city driving. Thanks for all the great, honest tips!
I just bought a 2021 double cab 4x4 and I absolutely love it. I am averaging between 14.5 to 15.7 mpg. Not bad for a big truck. I'm light on the gas pedal though. I drive it like a truck not a sports car. Love your channel by the way.
Peter, I own a 2010 Tundra 5.7 liter 2 wheel drive automatic with on 40 thousand miles on it. Its a red sr5 model. I have never gotten less than 17 mpg, most times 19 mpg. I check the mpg every time I fill up. It rides better than my 2023 car does. Ive owned them all, but this Tundra beats them all hands down. I love it and will keep it till I die. Its a keeper for me. Thanks, Rick
Yep. That one looks gangsta! I had 2014 and 2018 SR5 TRD OR with 5.7l. Both got 18-21 up here in AK. Hyper mileage. Towing less mileage, of course. The new 3.4 turbo's get less and are way more complicated. I don't have one of those so can't offer personal opinion. Wish I still had my 2018. I was stupid to sell back when they were worth more than new.
800 more miles my 2007 tundra will hit 300k miles and still get 14.5 mpg with more ethanol blend gas for winter 15.5-16 mpg for summer but sadly the frame is rutting away
My 2005 Tundra, 4dr crew cab, SR5, 140,000 miles is the best truck I have ever owned, Comfortable, problem free. Oh, except the tailgate latch broke 2 years ago. Spare tire has never been on the ground. I serviced at 100k a new timing belt and water pump. 17-18 mpg
I agree with you Peter. It’s insane to drive some with 11 MPG but then again I have a 02 sequoia with 270k. So I guess I can’t talk. 😂😂😂. Great video as always. Informative, precise and truthful. It’s Al’s ways a pleasure to hear you speak with such mellow demeanor.
I bought my 2007 SR5 DC 4WD Tundra with the 4.7 2UZFE engine in February 2020 with 200,000 miles for $7,500. It has been a great truck, a tank as he says. The gas mileage also sucks, as he said. I use it mostly for pulling our R-Pod camper and related Alaskan adventures and it has been a solid choice for that. Average MPG since I’ve owned it is 10.92.
I have a LX470. I work from home and fill up once every 2-3 weeks, but I do plan out any time I need to take a drive to make sure I make the most out of the MPG.
Gas mileage is just one aspect of ownership costs. My dad used to say "gas is cheap, it's the workshop that costs the money". I think he was right. Plus if you are using the vehicle to earn a living, breakdowns really impact your bottom line. Reliability is paramount. You do NOT want that bad-boy on the side of the road with the hood up.
My oldest son has a 2008 Sequoia, and gets about 11mpg. But he only drives around town 90% of the time and doesn’t put many miles on it, and lives a couple of blocks from work, so it works out well for him. Not a vehicle for a person driving an hour each way to work.
Hey Pete Great Video. I have a 2012 Tundra 4.6L with 202,000 miles on it. Great Truck;But with Allthosehorses,they Drink Alot. The Only Down Side I have Felt.
I agree with the low profile tire issue , i hit a 3/4 inch entrance skirt on a driveway at 30 mph and i blue out my low profile tire on my car, i have owned these low profile for 8 years and this is the first time i am thinking of switching them up for standard wheels and tires on my car.
For the average person who can't do their own repairs, the extra gas money might be a lot less than wild card repair bills for the newer 10 speed transmission/ turbo snowflake trucks. (Excepting the - er - "upgrades".). My own 4.7 gen 1 Tundra has been flawless for 20+ years, and only an EV may replace it.
Love my FGT, but honest question: How would an EV replace it? Like which EV would do what your truck can do? If anything, id keep it and get an EV for commuting.
@@jamiethomas8975 IMHO, for my use case, only E truck worth considering so far (because it is actually a truck that can do truck stuff) is Ford Lightning with long range battery. Has a spare tire, can take a topper, big usable frunk. Serious 120/240v power ports in the bed add new functionality. And no gas habit.
Love your videos,, thank You. Truck looks very nice, granted MPG is not same as a car. But, I see it as insurance, driving something far more safer than any other SUV no matter how many air bags they add. In my opinion having a frame/chassis is a big Plus in itself 👍🏼
2013 Platinum and I get average 12.6mpg combined. I've been told "You can choose to pay the pump or pay the mechanic" meaning that nothing beats the reliability of these. But I agree, better fuel economy and it would be the perfect truck.
I have the 2008 (yes 2008) CrewMax 4X4 with only 81,000 miles, I get around 11.2 MPG around town in the big city. Highway I can get around 15. I am hoping it gets better when it get broke in. :)
Hi TM channel. Great I sights and info you’ve posted that I routinely read and digest. I had a question. I have a 2007 Tundra 5.7l, 4x4 with 215,000 miles that I’ve owned for about a year. Vehicle has been well kept and maintained. My question is should I be inspecting the emission air pump system because of the mileage. No issues or faults with the system just trying to be proactive or should I just leave and not worry. Unfortunately no paper trail with the vehicle when I bought used. Tks for your time. Mark B
I purchased an 07 Tundra SR5 4x4. Highway milage is 18 with the 5.7. Where the savings comes in repairs. Mpg was not a concern. How often would it be in the shop. Not a lot, that's where you save. My Tundra has 303k, runs great. Same engine, tranny, alt. Everything works on the truck. No truck payments since 2012. Saving!! Gas will go back down to $2-3 a gallon. Saving!!!!!
Hi Peter, Again this is John Chan the fisherman, I owned an 07 tundra 5.7 liter. Yes my worst one yet 10.3 mpg. That's because I have a lead foot. That's why my wife and I are looking for a Yaris to go point A to B. I love my tundra I tow my fishing boat every summer. I need my truck. It has 189k miles on it and she purs like a kitten. Thanks.
There's that super annoying stereo system preventing the back seats from going all the way back. Says something about who was driving it. That guy you'd like to fire the missile at, 😀
I have a 4.7 Liter v8 with VVTI (4th gen 4runner) and I use it only for offroading and fun stuff. I drive a inline 4 beater that gets great gas mileage as my daily driver (36mpg) on the highway. You can have the best of both worlds.
2019 4x4 limited, 85k miles, 15-18mpg depending on how I drive. There have been a few times when wife is with me (forced to drive like an old man) when I have actually gotten slightly higher than 18mpg. I think the trd pros have a few parts that are a little heavier, so the "limited" may weigh slightly less. This is by far the best truck I have ever owned, 0 problems so far. It will probably outlive me.
I would think that reverting to a more stock wheel/tire combo might squeeze a few more mpg's out of her. That is my result for my 06. I got two extra mpg after replacing the larger tires to a stock size. I still get 13-14/city and 16-17/hwy now. Will be replacing spark plugs soon, and hopefully that will help a little too. I have 152k on the clock.
Wow you got your views up on this one!! You need to ohm out or #techstream those afr pre-cat sensors. And check the spark plugs. We had a unit that would get low mpg and even babying the pedal. I'd say it's a combination of both. The post cat never fails but the heater circuit always gets lazy and the light never comes on until it's completely dead. If you go on a long drive not much hills and use cruise control your mileage will go back to normal. But most of the time we need to change the pedal and that makes it inefficient. Those afrs ain't cheap either. Per unit can be $150-$200 so don't be guessing. It should be at 15
Just bought the same truck last week. 2007 black, same interior, 177,000 miles, one owner, paint a bit rougher but runs great. Has origin wheels with Michelin tires. $9,000 in Florida. Gas is $3.14 a gallon today. So far getting 14 MPG. Will need valve cover gaskets. Leaking a bit. Need the tailgate strut. $22.00. Need new tailgate handle. $14.00. Needs a clock spring. $16.00. Needs blower motor. $50.00. Needs four outer window seals. $110 for the four from Toyota. Only way truck could be better is if it came with the 8 foot bed. Was only available with double cab.
If you put stock size wheels and highway tires on that thing it will jump a noticeable amount in mileage. My 2021 crewmax with steelies and heavy ATs with offroad mods still averages 14 to 15 and 18ish on long highway trips.
I don't really trust those in car mileage computers. I generally do it the old fashioned way with a fill up, a trip odometer, and a calculator. I get 14 MPG in the city with my 2003 Tundra with the 4.7 V8. I also owned a 2007 Tundra, same color (Desert Sand Mica), with 4 WD and got around 14-15 MPG in that. Still not great, but what do you expect? I'm also glad Petr mentioned the wheels. Why would someone do that?
1 I would never have a full size truck with such low profile tires. 1 I have a 2007 tundra with the 5.7 and crew cab and I avg around 15 mpg if I'm conservative with it. Run in tow haul mode also helps some if I don't drive the snot out of it. I don't buy a full size truck for fuel economy for one, it is for the all around uses of the truck, size, roomeness, power, full crew cab. I love mine. Has 264k on it
I think those 2007/8 and maybe later had a problem with the emission control which was expensive to fix. But other than that they are very good trucks.
I get just about advertised gas mileage from my 2014 tundra 5.7 I dont do much city driving though so to each their own. It's a keeper and aint givin up my truck even if offered sticker price today.
Thanks for your great videos. 2017 Tundra CM with 5.7. I drive 60 miles round trip to work and get 16 mpg doing the speed limit. I have to admit, if you don't need a pickup, I would recommend getting something like the 3.5 SUV. But I'd rather pay for gas than pay for some stupid sensor or fuel pump issue like Ford RAM or GM pickups. You look at their poor videos, they go on for hours about the multiple problems they have- poor things.
11.1mpg is on the low side for those trucks, but it doesnt get MUCH better lol. i average 13-15 depending on the season and how often i use the remote starter. I LOVE my truck, and if MPG is the only thing i really have to deal with, ill get to keep it for a long time... it'd be a different story if i drove more than 12k miles per year though, i work close to home...
I used to have a small collection of big Caddys. 1959,1968,1970,1975.....even tuned perfec, with aftermarket dual exhaust.....12mpg with easy driving. My 03 Sequoia gets 15.....city or cross country highway. No more Caddys now.
Put a decent set of wheels and tires on for starters! The MPG’s, would increase a bit, as the RPM’s decrease, due to running incorrect wheel size. Looks pretty obvious, that’s possible reason, for bad mileage.
As much as I like the way it looks. I would replace with blackrhino wheels on 17’s with toyo - open country at3. That would be a lot better. Not for cosmetic looks, but those all terrain tires will drive hell of a lot better. And it can increase the mpg properly. Not a lot but a bit better.
i drive a 2002 Sequoia, it gets 16mpg in summer much less in winter (live in Montana) i would love a 4x4 Tundra same vintage but they go for over 20k here and that is insane. All are over 200k miles and many are not in great shape. I see the biggest problem is the purchase price. I picked up my Sequoia three years ago for 3k with 226k miles and even with the cost of a utility trailer so i can haul larger items it has been a good buy.
I have a 2013 platinum crewmax. Yes the fuel economy is horrible but I only put about 5000km per year on it towing a boat or trailer. If you want economy you need a diesel. Love the truck thou. I only have 100000 km or 60000 miles on it and it looks brand new.
I bought a used 2015 sr5 crew max a couple years ago and it gets 16mpg. Highway it’s probably more like 17.5 - 18. Not great, but similar to what other vehicles that size get.
It all depends on how many miles you drive every day. Here in Louisiana, where gas sells for about $3.15 a gallon, I would buy it in a second. The bottom of my 2000 Expedition is about as clean as that one. It shown how vehicles where they don't put salt on the roads can stay rust free for decades. The wheels aren't as ugly as that gas cap hatch. I would paint it even if it didn't match perfectly.
My serpentine drive belt snapped (1AZ-FE 2.0 petrol engine) and the engine was running for 15-20mins with no coolant pumping and was overheating before I switched off. I'm kicking myself for not pulling over immediately when I lost power steering. Do you think it will be damaged? What I don't understand is the coolant temperature gauge looked normal, I only switched off when I realised the coolant reservoir was venting steam.
I’m cheap as well and would never, ever buy such a gas guzzler. If gas prices were reasonable, and I needed a truck, I wouldn’t buy anything else but a Tundra. Great video Sir. 🇨🇦👍💝
You are correct, the truck is very thirsty. California prices on fuel are ridiculous and not the same as the rest of the country. In the midwest for example fuel was almost half that cost which makes it a much more viable vehicle here.
I have a 2021 2WD Tundra ans I am averaging 17 mpg where I live in Nevada and have gotten up to 19 mpg on the hwy and I don't have atrocities on my Tundra
I bought a Tundra new in 2017 SR5 V8 5.7L I have 41k now. I get a silly smile every time i drive it. I got a new battery at dealership a week ago and when the mechanic brought it back it REALLY took my breath away just like the first time i met my beautiful wife 😂 BTW to make it less painful I fill the 38 gallon gas tank I fill it when it’s half empty. I LOVE MY TUNDRA!
I have a 2015 Tundra SR5 4x4 with 136,000 miles. It’s had zero mechanical issues, and pulls a 7500 pound travel trailer with ease. Currently averaging about 15.7 mpg in daily driving, with load range E tires, stock size. My question would be for this truck is the low profile tires changing the gearing, thus not allowing the engine to run at lower revs on the highway? My truck is at 1800 rpm at 70 mph, so just wondering what effect the low profile tires have on fuel consumption?
@@Mityob67 after thinking about it for awhile, I know that when the tire size is smaller, that it changes the speedometer reading, so it may change the odometer reading as well, thus giving the computer a false mileage reading? Or a combination of that, and higher revs/mile which would reduce gas mileage. Of course the other unknown factor is how hard the truck is driven. 🤷🏻♂️
2003 Toyota Tundra with the 4.7 liter motor, 200k miles. It has been a really good truck. Never have checked the mileage per gallon. Do a lot of city driving. I am afraid to know the MPG. All I can tell you is it atrocious. Would not be surprised if it is 12 mpg or less.
Once i got 21mpg driving my 2019 4WD Tundra Limited on the freeway... Going from the high desert to the valley where I live, all downhill. I laughed so hard when I turned it off and it showed 21mpg. Usually I get around 11 mpg city and 14 on the highway provided it's not rush hour. My last truck was a 2002 Tundra with the 4.7. That only needed regular maintenance, a new steering gear box and brake master cylinder in its 17 years with me. My '19 has already cost more in service than that 2002 because the neighborhood rats like the wiring (one bad thing about living near 'conservancy' land is 'wildlife')... been bating them away from the Tundra, hoping they like the bait better than the wiring harness... I just feel (right or wrong) that a truck, if built properly, will outlast a car by a considerable amount of time. I saved so much with that 2002, not having car payments for 14 years, that I paid the '19 off in 11 months. Just a good solid truck that I plan on having for at least another decade, ready for the zombie apocalypse or the muddy camping gear...
California is more the problem than the mpg here…just bought a 13 Sequoia Platinum and love it. 16.5 mpg for the family car if you drive right. For church on Sunday, grocery runs, and the wife taking the kids into town sparingly, I’ll take it over any American competitor.
I have a 21 sequoia has 46k I drive very easy and on the hwy I get 19 to 20 mpg..13 in the city…Part of the problem might be using the wrong kind of tires…I only use the tires that was originally recommended by the mfg
That was the last value packed model tundra they removed all the little extras in the next gen. My 2016 now has 149K i'm getting 12 to 13 mpg with a 4.7 2WD. I still enjoy driving the truck but it eats brakes and front end is hard to keep aligned.
Has anyone installed a throttle control mod? (Pedal commander/9-drive) and if so experienced any improved mpg on economy mode? I have an 07 sr5 5.7 and put in a permanent greaseless air filter and running amsoil with true dual exhaust kit and average about 17-18 mpg highway. I do have a 1 " lift and all terrain tires. Just wondering what the ceiling might be...
Yes, I am appalled by my 2005 4.7L Tundra’s 13 mpg result. I miss my T100 with V6 which, when living in Oregon got 26mpg under all conditions, but in California only got 16-18mpg. Sold at 215K and regret it. Nothing powered in it, hand crank, no moonroof 😂 which I do love in the Tundra.
I have always averaged 16-18 mpg on my 2002 and 2003 4.7 tundras, unless I'm towing my camper. That's around town and hiway. I have a light foot. I don't understand how people only get 11 mpg.
Tundra with the 5.7 engine is technically a 3/4 ton truck if you see the youtube tundra deconstructed video. Where Texas Ranchers towed 16000 lb 24ft gooseneck trailers fir 100k miles and they said they never had a truck that would not have broken down steering or suspension within 40k miles. Well Tundra made it 100k miles before they took it apart to the bolts and it had small wear and tear on all parts. If you add a 4th leaf to the rear suspension and make sure you have the transmission oil cooler then you really have a 3/4 ton truck that would outlast any 3/4 truck out there.

drop transmission pan and replace strainer and fluid with OEM ATF WS, replace rear differential fluid with Toyota recommended grade which is 75w-85
Put engine oil grade that is actual on oil cap, stock OEM spark plugs. If it was lifted delete it and put stock size wheels adjust tire pressure to spec, clean injectors, throtle body and PCV valve, and you will gain 4-5 mpg back with 15-16mpg mix driving cycle with no towing. Long distance drive will have even better mpg.
You're correct, I have a 2017 Crew Max. I pull a 3,000 lbs trailer, 3 people in it, and my bed is full of everything, up to the cottage (600km), I get 14.5mpg on it. We had a 2011 Rav4 with V6, it would take about the same gas to only go about 300km. I saw one of the other youtube channels who just bought a new 2024 Tacoma crew cab, they had a trailer on it, it was getting 11.5mpg when pulling the trailer, 24mpg with two people in it. The channel does the Ike challenge in Colorado. The new Tacoma, I'm not convinced it would be much good if you are planning to pull a trailer or have a load in it. It APPEARS the mileage drops significantly! I'll stick with the 5.7L V8 over any 4 cylinder turbo.
💯
you have the hotrod Rav4
The Rav and Camry both have same engines and problem is check the spark plugs on rear bank that people never change and also lazy afr sensor that Toyota set to not turn on the light to fail inspections but you pay in mpg
I have a 2008 Tundra 5.7 sr5 CrewMax TRD with 189k. Doesn't burn oil. This truck in 16 years has had only 3 major repairs. Secondary air pumps which Toyota reimbursed me 80% of the cost, a starter, and a new rear main seal gasket. That's it. It's possible to get 13 to 14 MPG in the city if you have a very light foot and don't rev it over 2,000 rpms. The engine has a ton of torque if you drive a lot of stop and go traffic there's no need for the RPMs to go above 2200. In my opinion the 5.7 engine in this tundra will outlast every component on this truck. I drive it slow and run full synthetic 0/20. No issues, engine still runs like new
Woah wait, how did you get toyota to pay for 80% of the secondary pumps? Mine get stuck open or closed occasionally.
@spiralnapkin .
@spiralnapkin hope this info finds you well and helps you. Since this all happened in 2015 from what I remember the following things qualified me to receive 80% help. Having purchased 3 Toyotas, having done all the services at Toyota dealer so there was record, having the pumps go out when my Tundra was just a couple thousand miles past the allotted mileage of the Toyota secondary air pump campaign.

Because it was my 3rd Toyota purchased, all services were documented at Toyota dealership the Toyota Motor Corporation who gives excellent customer service sent 80% payment to the Toyota dealer and I covered the rest. If you have a newer Tundra you shouldn't have the older designed pumps and hoses. This design was only on the earlier model tundras. Call TMC, maybe they'll help. Good luck
How did you get Toyota to pay 80% of the secondary air pumps? They all and I mean all fail. I had to pay 2k for my 2007 Tundra. I do get 17 mpg in the city. The secondary air pump failure caused my mpg to drop. Sounds like thst trucks sec air pumps are failing to get 11 mpg
@MegaChoo2
Dealership here in El Paso Texas helped me out. They had me call TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION and explain the situation, since my Tundra was just months out of the 10 yr warranty that they covered for tundras with faulty secondary air pumps. What helped me the most was that it was my 3rd Toyota purchased, so I was considered a loyalty customer. TMC paid 80% of the bill which at the time(2018) was 3,600.
They replaced everything, with new updated design. Good luck my friend, I hope this message finds you well.
My cousin works the oil patch and has lots of trucks. He says he'd sooner put a few extra hundred bucks in a Tundra for fuel than a few thousand in the Ford's Chevy's, and Doges for parts. A little extra for fuel or a lot extra for parts and lost time in the shop, which do you want?
True!!!
That was exactly my thinking when we purchased our 2010 SR5 double cab long box 4x4! I have only replaced 2 things, one front brake caliper because the bleeder snapped off, and the block heater cord. And of course brake pads, oil and filters etc.
As a former lifetime Chevy truck driver, I decided that lifters, rust and a host of other problems convinced me to buy a well used 2007 CM with over 200K on the odometer. Now it has almost 240,000 trouble free miles. I'll never buy anything but Toyota. I expect 400K out of .it. Sure it doesn't sip gas but I still got 16.6 on the highway last year on vacation.
I have a 2017 Tundra which has been a great truck. If not driven hard, the mileage fluctuates between 15 and 17 mpg. To save a few bucks on fuel, it would not be worth buying a new truck.
Peter, I have that same model, 2010. That mileage meter you were looking at is not lifetime- if you hold the “info” button in while mileage is displayed, it will reset to “0”. As you drive, it will change. You can reset it to keep track of avg. mileage per tank if you want. Works kind of like a trip odometer but for mileage not miles. I have always gotten 15-16 mpg in mine which is all city driving. Thanks for all the great, honest tips!
Thanks for pointing that out, that 11 may be the average of the last trip, and would show better on the Hwy.
our toyota minivan averages around 12 because it just get used to drive 1 mile to grocery store around town no long trips on highway it is 20
These average 15mpg but that would be the only reason why I wouldn't drive it every day. Good for you if you need one.
I just bought a 2021 double cab 4x4 and I absolutely love it. I am averaging between 14.5 to 15.7 mpg. Not bad for a big truck. I'm light on the gas pedal though. I drive it like a truck not a sports car. Love your channel by the way.
Im getting 17.2 avg mpg by using cruise control
Peter, I own a 2010 Tundra 5.7 liter 2 wheel drive automatic with on 40 thousand miles on it. Its a red sr5 model. I have never gotten less than 17 mpg, most times 19 mpg. I check the mpg every time I fill up. It rides better than my 2023 car does. Ive owned them all, but this Tundra beats them all hands down. I love it and will keep it till I die. Its a keeper for me. Thanks, Rick
40k wow, we had an '07 with 285k when we sold it. Our 2012 just rolled 245k lol
The MPG calculator isn’t very accurate in some of these older Toyotas. It likely won’t calibrate to the new wheel size as well.
Yep. That one looks gangsta! I had 2014 and 2018 SR5 TRD OR with 5.7l. Both got 18-21 up here in AK. Hyper mileage. Towing less mileage, of course. The new 3.4 turbo's get less and are way more complicated. I don't have one of those so can't offer personal opinion. Wish I still had my 2018. I was stupid to sell back when they were worth more than new.
2WD for a truck is uncivilized
800 more miles my 2007 tundra will hit 300k miles and still get 14.5 mpg with more ethanol blend gas for winter 15.5-16 mpg for summer but sadly the frame is rutting away
I have a 2001 Tundra SR5 Access Cab 220K miles and it's a tank. Replaced the radiator and thermostat 2 years ago. It's been very reliable.
My 2005 Tundra, 4dr crew cab, SR5, 140,000 miles is the best truck I have ever owned, Comfortable, problem free. Oh, except the tailgate latch broke 2 years ago. Spare tire has never been on the ground. I serviced at 100k a new timing belt and water pump. 17-18 mpg
Greetings Peter, my 2017 SR5, 5.7, Double Cab, 4X4, driven mostly in city traffic, in NJ, normally gets 16-18 mpg. Stock wheels & tires.
Yep I have one with a 6 inch lift with 35s pulling a 27 foot camper. It is not good but a nice ride.
I agree with you Peter. It’s insane to drive some with 11 MPG but then again I have a 02 sequoia with 270k. So I guess I can’t talk. 😂😂😂. Great video as always. Informative, precise and truthful. It’s Al’s ways a pleasure to hear you speak with such mellow demeanor.
95,000 miles on my 07' Tundra. 1-water pump. Think I'll keep it. The only time I get 11 MPG is if I'm towing 8,000 pounds. Otherwise 15-18 MPG.
You’re lucky lol
@@durango8882 I know. Been that way my whole life.
I get 16 with mine. I'm at 267,892 miles but the tow haul days are over except for the Home Depot pickups...
I bought my 2007 SR5 DC 4WD Tundra with the 4.7 2UZFE engine in February 2020 with 200,000 miles for $7,500. It has been a great truck, a tank as he says. The gas mileage also sucks, as he said. I use it mostly for pulling our R-Pod camper and related Alaskan adventures and it has been a solid choice for that. Average MPG since I’ve owned it is 10.92.
I have a LX470. I work from home and fill up once every 2-3 weeks, but I do plan out any time I need to take a drive to make sure I make the most out of the MPG.
Gas mileage is just one aspect of ownership costs. My dad used to say "gas is cheap, it's the workshop that costs the money". I think he was right. Plus if you are using the vehicle to earn a living, breakdowns really impact your bottom line. Reliability is paramount. You do NOT want that bad-boy on the side of the road with the hood up.
My oldest son has a 2008 Sequoia, and gets about 11mpg. But he only drives around town 90% of the time and doesn’t put many miles on it, and lives a couple of blocks from work, so it works out well for him. Not a vehicle for a person driving an hour each way to work.
Hey Pete Great Video.
I have a 2012 Tundra 4.6L with 202,000 miles on it.
Great Truck;But with
Allthosehorses,they
Drink Alot.
The Only Down Side I have Felt.
I agree with the low profile tire issue , i hit a 3/4 inch entrance skirt on a driveway at 30 mph and i blue out my low profile tire on my car, i have owned these low profile for 8 years and this is the first time i am thinking of switching them up for standard wheels and tires on my car.
For the average person who can't do their own repairs, the extra gas money might be a lot less than wild card repair bills for the newer 10 speed transmission/ turbo snowflake trucks. (Excepting the - er - "upgrades".). My own 4.7 gen 1 Tundra has been flawless for 20+ years, and only an EV may replace it.
Yep. Over complicated and made of components made by the lowest bidder. No thanks.
Every person I know with an EV hates them. Keep what you have!
@@jthonn I agree, why would he get rid of his amazing FGT for an EV?
Love my FGT, but honest question: How would an EV replace it? Like which EV would do what your truck can do? If anything, id keep it and get an EV for commuting.
@@jamiethomas8975 IMHO, for my use case, only E truck worth considering so far (because it is actually a truck that can do truck stuff) is Ford Lightning with long range battery. Has a spare tire, can take a topper, big usable frunk. Serious 120/240v power ports in the bed add new functionality. And no gas habit.
Love your videos,, thank You. Truck looks very nice, granted MPG is not same as a car. But, I see it as insurance, driving something far more safer than any other SUV no matter how many air bags they add. In my opinion having a frame/chassis is a big Plus in itself 👍🏼
2013 Platinum and I get average 12.6mpg combined. I've been told "You can choose to pay the pump or pay the mechanic" meaning that nothing beats the reliability of these. But I agree, better fuel economy and it would be the perfect truck.
I have the 2008 (yes 2008) CrewMax 4X4 with only 81,000 miles, I get around 11.2 MPG around town in the big city. Highway I can get around 15. I am hoping it gets better when it get broke in. :)
U had me in suspense the whole time… 🙂. Is $6/gallon a tundra problem or a California problem? Haha - enjoyed yr video.
Hi TM channel. Great I sights and info you’ve posted that I routinely read and digest. I had a question. I have a 2007 Tundra 5.7l, 4x4 with 215,000 miles that I’ve owned for about a year. Vehicle has been well kept and maintained. My question is should I be inspecting the emission air pump system because of the mileage. No issues or faults with the system just trying to be proactive or should I just leave and not worry. Unfortunately no paper trail with the vehicle when I bought used. Tks for your time. Mark B
I purchased an 07 Tundra SR5 4x4. Highway milage is 18 with the 5.7. Where the savings comes in repairs. Mpg was not a concern. How often would it be in the shop. Not a lot, that's where you save. My Tundra has 303k, runs great. Same engine, tranny, alt. Everything works on the truck. No truck payments since 2012. Saving!! Gas will go back down to $2-3 a gallon. Saving!!!!!
Hi Peter,
Again this is John Chan the fisherman, I owned an 07 tundra 5.7 liter. Yes my worst one yet 10.3 mpg. That's because I have a lead foot. That's why my wife and I are looking for a Yaris to go point A to B.
I love my tundra I tow my fishing boat every summer. I need my truck. It has 189k miles on it and she purs like a kitten.
Thanks.
Been having my '08 since new. I get 13.4 combined. Not one problem in 16 years. Best gasoline powered trucks ever built.
I had that exact truck. With cruise control set at 64mph on the highway for a long drive, i got 20 mpg.
I wouldn’t buy any used vehicle that had modifications like that 👀 Lots of red flags
Those wheels don’t look good. I don’t like any of the mods.
@@durango8882 The wheels are awful, owner should definitely put OEM wheels back on with more suitable tyres. Toyota engineers know what they're doing.
There's that super annoying stereo system preventing the back seats from going all the way back. Says something about who was driving it. That guy you'd like to fire the missile at, 😀
@@billp4😂😂😂
Those look like gangster type wheels! LOL!
I have a 4.7 Liter v8 with VVTI (4th gen 4runner) and I use it only for offroading and fun stuff. I drive a inline 4 beater that gets great gas mileage as my daily driver (36mpg) on the highway. You can have the best of both worlds.
2019 4x4 limited, 85k miles, 15-18mpg depending on how I drive. There have been a few times when wife is with me (forced to drive like an old man) when I have actually gotten slightly higher than 18mpg. I think the trd pros have a few parts that are a little heavier, so the "limited" may weigh slightly less. This is by far the best truck I have ever owned, 0 problems so far. It will probably outlive me.
I would think that reverting to a more stock wheel/tire combo might squeeze a few more mpg's out of her. That is my result for my 06. I got two extra mpg after replacing the larger tires to a stock size. I still get 13-14/city and 16-17/hwy now. Will be replacing spark plugs soon, and hopefully that will help a little too. I have 152k on the clock.
Wow you got your views up on this one!! You need to ohm out or #techstream those afr pre-cat sensors. And check the spark plugs. We had a unit that would get low mpg and even babying the pedal. I'd say it's a combination of both. The post cat never fails but the heater circuit always gets lazy and the light never comes on until it's completely dead. If you go on a long drive not much hills and use cruise control your mileage will go back to normal. But most of the time we need to change the pedal and that makes it inefficient. Those afrs ain't cheap either. Per unit can be $150-$200 so don't be guessing. It should be at 15
Just bought the same truck last week. 2007 black, same interior, 177,000 miles, one owner, paint a bit rougher but runs great. Has origin wheels with Michelin tires. $9,000 in Florida. Gas is $3.14 a gallon today. So far getting 14 MPG. Will need valve cover gaskets. Leaking a bit. Need the tailgate strut. $22.00. Need new tailgate handle. $14.00. Needs a clock spring. $16.00. Needs blower motor. $50.00. Needs four outer window seals. $110 for the four from Toyota. Only way truck could be better is if it came with the 8 foot bed. Was only available with double cab.
My 04 crew limited was my last vehicle purchased and I'm taking it to the end. 77k, pretty much mint. 4.7, 4wd, 19mpg on a trip, maybe 12 around town
I have a 2017 with 5.7l. Yup, mileage sucks, but it’s worth it to me. I LOVE my Tundra and hope to have it forever.
7:45 Fuelly has the 2023 Tundra at 17.0 mpg (average of 113 owners). Big improvement from the new hybrid drivetrain.
I own 2008 toyota sequoia limited I like keep everything original oem whatever modifications I do to it best suv I own so far😊
Thanks my man,I was thinking about the 2008 Tundra 4x4 I think I'll check the milage cause that's a big deal to me as well.
I have an 07 love it great truck it’s stock 😊
Hey Peter, that why i dont see many here in Scotland when we are at 8 bucks a gallon !!
If you put stock size wheels and highway tires on that thing it will jump a noticeable amount in mileage. My 2021 crewmax with steelies and heavy ATs with offroad mods still averages 14 to 15 and 18ish on long highway trips.
Same here, my average MPG is around 15 to 17 in town and around 19 to 20 on the highway.
My 2014 4x4 5.7 averages 15 mpg in Colorado. Lots of mountain driving. Mix of 85 and 87 octane. Towing at 80 mph lowers it to 12 mpg
I don't really trust those in car mileage computers. I generally do it the old fashioned way with a fill up, a trip odometer, and a calculator. I get 14 MPG in the city with my 2003 Tundra with the 4.7 V8. I also owned a 2007 Tundra, same color (Desert Sand Mica), with 4 WD and got around 14-15 MPG in that. Still not great, but what do you expect? I'm also glad Petr mentioned the wheels. Why would someone do that?
I have a 2010 Toyota double cab with the 5.7 engine and two wheel drive and I get 15 MPG in Charleston SC. We are at sea level and flat lands.
1 I would never have a full size truck with such low profile tires. 1 I have a 2007 tundra with the 5.7 and crew cab and I avg around 15 mpg if I'm conservative with it. Run in tow haul mode also helps some if I don't drive the snot out of it. I don't buy a full size truck for fuel economy for one, it is for the all around uses of the truck, size, roomeness, power, full crew cab. I love mine. Has 264k on it
I think those 2007/8 and maybe later had a problem with the emission control which was expensive to fix. But other than that they are very good trucks.
Could the wheel/tire choice be messing with the MPG calculations?
I get just about advertised gas mileage from my 2014 tundra 5.7 I dont do much city driving though so to each their own. It's a keeper and aint givin up my truck even if offered sticker price today.
Thanks for your great videos. 2017 Tundra CM with 5.7. I drive 60 miles round trip to work and get 16 mpg doing the speed limit. I have to admit, if you don't need a pickup, I would recommend getting something like the 3.5 SUV. But I'd rather pay for gas than pay for some stupid sensor or fuel pump issue like Ford RAM or GM pickups. You look at their poor videos, they go on for hours about the multiple problems they have- poor things.
11.1mpg is on the low side for those trucks, but it doesnt get MUCH better lol. i average 13-15 depending on the season and how often i use the remote starter. I LOVE my truck, and if MPG is the only thing i really have to deal with, ill get to keep it for a long time... it'd be a different story if i drove more than 12k miles per year though, i work close to home...
I used to have a small collection of big Caddys. 1959,1968,1970,1975.....even tuned perfec, with aftermarket dual exhaust.....12mpg with easy driving.
My 03 Sequoia gets 15.....city or cross country highway.
No more Caddys now.
Put a decent set of wheels and tires on for
starters! The MPG’s, would increase a bit, as the RPM’s decrease, due to running incorrect
wheel size.
Looks pretty obvious, that’s possible reason,
for bad mileage.
As much as I like the way it looks.
I would replace with blackrhino wheels on 17’s with toyo - open country at3. That would be a lot better. Not for cosmetic looks, but those all terrain tires will drive hell of a lot better. And it can increase the mpg properly. Not a lot but a bit better.
i drive a 2002 Sequoia, it gets 16mpg in summer much less in winter (live in Montana) i would love a 4x4 Tundra same vintage but they go for over 20k here and that is insane. All are over 200k miles and many are not in great shape. I see the biggest problem is the purchase price. I picked up my Sequoia three years ago for 3k with 226k miles and even with the cost of a utility trailer so i can haul larger items it has been a good buy.
I have a 2013 platinum crewmax. Yes the fuel economy is horrible but I only put about 5000km per year on it towing a boat or trailer. If you want economy you need a diesel. Love the truck thou. I only have 100000 km or 60000 miles on it and it looks brand new.
An atrocity!!!!!! Priceless ! 😍
Not to rub salt in the wound, but gas can be found at $ 2.95 per gallon at Costco in Florida.
I bought a used 2015 sr5 crew max a couple years ago and it gets 16mpg. Highway it’s probably more like 17.5 - 18. Not great, but similar to what other vehicles that size get.
It all depends on how many miles you drive every day. Here in Louisiana, where gas sells for about $3.15 a gallon, I would buy it in a second. The bottom of my 2000 Expedition is about as clean as that one. It shown how vehicles where they don't put salt on the roads can stay rust free for decades. The wheels aren't as ugly as that gas cap hatch. I would paint it even if it didn't match perfectly.
I have two tacomas 03 and 2017 the old truck has 200.000 miles on to rans great only have 28000 on the newer one there bullet proof
My serpentine drive belt snapped (1AZ-FE 2.0 petrol engine) and the engine was running for 15-20mins with no coolant pumping and was overheating before I switched off. I'm kicking myself for not pulling over immediately when I lost power steering. Do you think it will be damaged? What I don't understand is the coolant temperature gauge looked normal, I only switched off when I realised the coolant reservoir was venting steam.
I’m cheap as well and would never, ever buy such a gas guzzler. If gas prices were reasonable, and I needed a truck, I wouldn’t buy anything else but a Tundra. Great video Sir. 🇨🇦👍💝
I absolutely love my 2008! I will cry when I eventually will need to replace it.
You are correct, the truck is very thirsty. California prices on fuel are ridiculous and not the same as the rest of the country. In the midwest for example fuel was almost half that cost which makes it a much more viable vehicle here.
Can you please do a video on WHY COROLLAs go for so many miles without any major work done to them?? Go over the components
I have a 2017 tundra 4x4 sr5 crew max with 6 inch lift and 35 inch tires load range F and I'm getting 13 mpg in town
I have a 2021 2WD Tundra ans I am averaging 17 mpg where I live in Nevada and have gotten up to 19 mpg on the hwy and I don't have atrocities on my Tundra
That's around 50 cents...per mile! However, it would be fantastic as an occasional use truck.
I bought a Tundra new in 2017 SR5 V8 5.7L I have 41k now. I get a silly smile every time i drive it. I got a new battery at dealership a week ago and when the mechanic brought it back it REALLY took my breath away just like the first time i met my beautiful wife 😂
BTW to make it less painful I fill the 38 gallon gas tank I fill it when it’s half empty. I LOVE MY TUNDRA!
I have a 2015 Tundra SR5 4x4 with 136,000 miles. It’s had zero mechanical issues, and pulls a 7500 pound travel trailer with ease. Currently averaging about 15.7 mpg in daily driving, with load range E tires, stock size. My question would be for this truck is the low profile tires changing the gearing, thus not allowing the engine to run at lower revs on the highway? My truck is at 1800 rpm at 70 mph, so just wondering what effect the low profile tires have on fuel consumption?
Great question.
I wonder the same.
@@Mityob67 after thinking about it for awhile, I know that when the tire size is smaller, that it changes the speedometer reading, so it may change the odometer reading as well, thus giving the computer a false mileage reading? Or a combination of that, and higher revs/mile which would reduce gas mileage. Of course the other unknown factor is how hard the truck is driven. 🤷🏻♂️
2003 Toyota Tundra with the 4.7 liter motor, 200k miles. It has been a really good truck. Never have checked the mileage per gallon. Do a lot of city driving. I am afraid to know the MPG. All I can tell you is it atrocious. Would not be surprised if it is 12 mpg or less.
Sir what would you do to stretch the mpg?
Once i got 21mpg driving my 2019 4WD Tundra Limited on the freeway... Going from the high desert to the valley where I live, all downhill. I laughed so hard when I turned it off and it showed 21mpg. Usually I get around 11 mpg city and 14 on the highway provided it's not rush hour. My last truck was a 2002 Tundra with the 4.7. That only needed regular maintenance, a new steering gear box and brake master cylinder in its 17 years with me. My '19 has already cost more in service than that 2002 because the neighborhood rats like the wiring (one bad thing about living near 'conservancy' land is 'wildlife')... been bating them away from the Tundra, hoping they like the bait better than the wiring harness... I just feel (right or wrong) that a truck, if built properly, will outlast a car by a considerable amount of time. I saved so much with that 2002, not having car payments for 14 years, that I paid the '19 off in 11 months. Just a good solid truck that I plan on having for at least another decade, ready for the zombie apocalypse or the muddy camping gear...
California is more the problem than the mpg here…just bought a 13 Sequoia Platinum and love it. 16.5 mpg for the family car if you drive right. For church on Sunday, grocery runs, and the wife taking the kids into town sparingly, I’ll take it over any American competitor.
I have the 4.6L version, I get about 17 MPG avg.
2016, crew cab, 2WD, 5.7 with 32's on 18"s gets 14.2mpg.
Cheap cheap cheap. Peter you can afford. Lol. Don't take me seriously lm just joking about. Love your videos. My cousin from Stuttgart loves you.
I got 17 doing 70 in my 2008 Tundra not bad
I have a 21 sequoia has 46k I drive very easy and on the hwy I get 19 to 20 mpg..13 in the city…Part of the problem might be using the wrong kind of tires…I only use the tires that was originally recommended by the mfg
The secondary air injection system can easily be bypassed with a $300 kit from Hewitt. I would never replace one
I get 12.5 MPG with my 2011 Tundra (4WD). Need it for my farm and use it to commute.
I'll still drive my 1999 Toyota Corolla LE with 130000 Mi on the clock I just wish it was from down south.
That was the last value packed model tundra they removed all the little extras in the next gen. My 2016 now has 149K i'm getting 12 to 13 mpg with a 4.7 2WD. I still enjoy driving the truck but it eats brakes and front end is hard to keep aligned.
Has anyone installed a throttle control mod? (Pedal commander/9-drive) and if so experienced any improved mpg on economy mode? I have an 07 sr5 5.7 and put in a permanent greaseless air filter and running amsoil with true dual exhaust kit and average about 17-18 mpg highway. I do have a 1 " lift and all terrain tires. Just wondering what the ceiling might be...
I wish you were in Texas
totally correct. It is even worse with 4wd!
At 11 mpg you either got a very heavy foot or pull some kind of the trailer. My average is 14.3.
I hit a 1400 pound horse that ran onto the road with my Tundra and the Tundra saved my life. Had I been in my other smaller vehicle I would be dead.
Thank you Peter. I'm day dreaming Yaris !! I'll pass on the Tundra
Yes, I am appalled by my 2005 4.7L Tundra’s 13 mpg result.
I miss my T100 with V6 which, when living in Oregon got 26mpg under all conditions, but in California only got 16-18mpg.
Sold at 215K and regret it. Nothing powered in it, hand crank, no moonroof 😂 which I do love in the Tundra.
Bring back the T100!!!!
I have always averaged 16-18 mpg on my 2002 and 2003 4.7 tundras, unless I'm towing my camper. That's around town and hiway. I have a light foot. I don't understand how people only get 11 mpg.
I love it, but those tires and wheels would leave day 1. For limited use use, would be fabulous truck, if you've got something else for most travel.
The underside of that truck is incredibly clean
Yup, previous kept it inside and never drove it when it was wet outside
