Video

Great video! I have the 6.7 ho power stroke and broke my brain going between the 3:31 and 3:55. I got the 3:31 and the thing is a rocket. I wonder how they'd do with the tq from the diesel.

I have 32,000 Kms with a lot of it towing a travel trailer. I change the oil myself 1/2 way between the scheduled maintenance. Hoping I am not one of the recalled trucks cause I am about to head out on a 6 month long trip. I do feel like I am driving a time bomb though. Basically now there are no trucks to buy, GM is crap, Ford is crap and Dodge well even the name means avoid. Toyota should be buying back these vehicles. Tons of them are sitting on the lots.

Where's the towing video?!?!?!

I just bought a 2024 Silverado and they still haven’t fixed that problem 5.3 eco trek bad lifters

Why you buy a 2500 or 3500. No matter what people say, 1500’s are for groceries

💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

Ya Toyota is the largest automaker in the world. Let’s not cry to much, they can afford to replace the engine and give a customer $2,500.00 worth of future service!

And if you want to trade this in at a Toyota store good luck. They don't want it either because legally they cannot sell it without the recall being completed.

My 2024 with 5.0 and 3.73 will beat the shit out of that 3.5l junk

Hi I sub and I like the great information and quality of your video, i never had to tow anything and never had to own a truck either, but now a need one to tow a car, to be exact a s550 gt to the drift track, is the V8 a good choice for that or go with the Eco? thanks in advance love the channel.

I'm currently on my third Toyota truck (2020 Tacoma), and I truly think Toyota has lost their way. My plan is to drive my Tacoma indefinitely, even if this means replacement of major components like engine or transmission.

Now tow it with a powerboost and you won’t even notice the trailer is there

2017 ram 1500 rebel.Swappes out air suspension with full custom Bilstein suspension and S&B cold air intake plus a Muffler from Speed FX.I got the truck 2years ago this June and 130.000 and know sitting at 222.000,I'm getting on the Hwy 11/12 per 100k...,Also running 12.50/17/33 With zero offset rims due to the upgraded suspension witch I'm running the rough country A-Arm

What about driving less.miles but keeping your foot the n it😮

I and a co worker both have 2014’s and we’re both told the exact same thing and I was quoted $1300 to do the job. Idk what to do and I’m at 105k

:12 - but both trucks have 10-speed transmissions. /video

Id be uber mad if i was an owner of the affected vehicle.

Just get a 3.31 and slap a whipple on it.

Epa is the problem too tight spec for super thin oil to pass emission any fluctuation in oil pressure even if normal one will be at risk of a contact. Plus this tiny engine have lot more pushing force by square inch on there tiny bearing the oil film is harder to be uninterrup. I am pretty sure if the customer will thicken a bit is oil they will be alot less engine blown.

From what I understand the Tundra is only manufactured in Texas. Is this the result of American workers manufacturing and assembling the truck in the USA ? Could the question be asked if this would have happened in a Japanese plant?

Go buy the F150 is right!!!

They need to fix them and give customers a lifetime powertrain warranty in order to sell that piece of junk. Only uninformed buyers will buy one but who does not research online a vehicle that's gonna cost you $65k

Toyota is FOS with that debris recall. It's a failed design imo. Who wants them to flush out your motor and send you on your way never again to feel confident in your truck. My 2022 Tacoma is most likely my last Toyota truck.

Toyota should have left their old realiable power plants as they were. Adding turbos that require removing the cab is a huge turnoff for me. I'll be looking for a 2014 and up Tundra with the V8, I'll never buy one of these, too complicated.

I don't think it really matters. It performs like a beast off-road, once you put a 3.5" lift and 40s. Even with a giant heavy camper in the bed. czcams.com/video/w4zwJ1fxMPs/video.htmlsi=X8TnpZDjh8ppUfto

It's because the extra weight of the Cummins reduces the payload. I get what you're saying though. Somehow, I think it can actually do way better than the rated numbers. But that does seem to defeat the purpose. Although, the cummins has much greater fuel range than the gas. Which makes it an ideal overlander.

I like the concept but I’m still not sold on the turbo for long term durability. Long term durability for me is 10 years/150,000 miles. I’m also not impressed with the fuel mileage. I’ll be in the market for a new half ton in a couple of years. Decisions, decisions……….. Maybe a two year old Nissan Titan for me.

When you do revisit this, another factor to include is the other maintenance cost comparisons like transmission fluid, coolant, spark plugs,etc. And if you really want to get in the weeds, the difference in fluid change intervals between the 68rfe and Aisin.

You should have to pass certain tests to qualify for towing or even qualify to use a truck to be honest. People just load up their truck and/or trailer and hit the road. Now they’re an expert truck driver. In reality, most people don’t know anything about gearing, weight limits, payload capacity etc.

Hell this is nothing, fucking GM has been producing lifter eating engines since 2007.

10:38 - Your assertion that with new engines, problems will always occur... Relying on the customers to perform R&D and longevity trials is not acceptable. People are wasting time and money on these, "recalls", "problem diagnostics", "investigative tasks", etc. Manufacturers need to pay for people's time when problems DO OCCUR.

They do coil springs. Frames are tough, rear dif tough, trans tough, 5.7 tough. But they want them to ride like cars so they put the coil spring in the rear and they don't hold squat for weight. Rear air bags you'll be fine. I just had to do it for my camper. It does absolutely fine now!

My opinion is if you’re working the 5.7 in a truck application you need 2,000 mile change intervals and 3,000 under ideal conditions, all of these engines with low tension piston rings= same. They let to much garbage into the crankcase and the oil gets diluted to fast.

I get 22 with mine, if I draft a semi I can get 26-28mpg. Mine is a 22 full cab with 6.5ft bed, I don’t know the gear ratio, but now I’m going to find out lol

Rubber oil pump belt. Stupid. Needs an upgrade asap !

OK, LOL when pointing at that Ram 1500 across the lot that looks like it crashed into a Jeep.

How is visibility using the standard size mirrors with that trailer?

Yep federal demomarxist Destroying the combustion engine market with tailpipe limits to get to your chinese electric. You fools,

I think the debris in the engine is BS. Design flaw

If they recall a truck i just bought brand new for a engine replacement, I need to get a full refund, and move on

Possibly looking to get a ram 2500/3500 with the 6.7, on the truck specifically what should I look at when buying used, I have a tablet scanner so I can health report before buying, but I don't want to get screwed with a high idle hour truck haha

I won’t be buying a tundra after this debacle

well fuck. i got my 2024 iforce max before the recall in early May. I can only hope mine wasn’t affected.

There is no way I would touch one of these trucks now. Seventy thousand plus on a gamble, deal me out!

Don't forget that rain can make a significant difference in fuel economy numbers. Although to what extent I am not sure.

Haven't we learned that 4/6 cylinder turbo trucks are all trash?

You guys need to blame your governments. They’re the ones forcing auto manufacturers to change engines to meet emissions

Everyone needs to stop integrating every thing in a subassembly. Pretty soon the turbo will be integrated into the engine block .

Diminished value. Who would want any vehicle with an engine recall. Toyota just dumped their loyal customer base.

if Toyota doesn't do buyback announcements this week, they are throwing their good reputation down the $hitter. This really seems to be a design issue. Bummer for them and owners.
