Hi Scotty , what would be a good suv Mercedes-Benz be to buy. I'm thinking of a 350 but don't know a good year or even if I should get one.
"Magic Electricity" is generated by Magical Thinkers, with tax payer dollars.
How do you say Elon is not a business guy? He sold it did he not ?
Hey Scotty . LOL elec. cars . A guy got one and left Saskatoon mid. winter - 30 going to Regina . Got half way had to stop at Davidson for a four hour charge . 145 miles on a charge no thanks .
This one is a shocker...
What's even funnier is that the fuel range is only marginally better with the V6 twin turbo hybrid. They sacrificed the bullet proof V8 5.7 liter for like 1 mpg 😂
Unfortunately that 1 mpg is absolute gold when dealing with the EPA.
It's just stupid. Like Mazda changing their 2.5L 4-banger (solid engine w/ really good mpg) to include cylinder-deactivation.
"Now you'll get 28 mpg in city vs the 26 you were getting!" It defies logic.
@@chfpontiac5849what I’m hearing is….. abolish the EPA
It’s more like 5mpg better which is about 20-30% than the previous gen…. Nonetheless, this is a huge issue… honestly we can thank the current administration for the new CAFE standards for automakers.. Toyota had zero interest in going to Turbos.
It's not about MPG, it's about submission.
I bought a 2020 tundra with the 5.7. I didn't want anything to do with the twin turbo v6. This just proves I made a good choice.
I drove 5 hours each way in April to buy a 2021 Platinum with 26k miles. Scotty definitely influenced my decision to buy the V8 instead of one of those twin turbos.
You made an excellent choice 👌 👏 👍 😀, it shows that you care about yourself and your money
Always listen to Scotty ❤❤❤❤
Me too, don’t want anything to do with a V6 turbo engine
Me to
I have a 2018 V8 Tundra with 20K miles on it, went to get an oil change last week, and they were begging me to trade it in on the twin turbo. I love the power of a v8 and after seeing this, I will keep it till I die.
Great choice! Stay far away from the new toyota/lexus models with the V6 twin turbos. Unless you don't mind a $35,000 repair bill after the warranty runs out lol
@BIgBass255 : As it ages, only let your most trusted mechanic service it or replace parts. Over time too many hands in the pot can break things. Enjoy!
If the engine would hold together, it would blow your doors off before it blows up.
They would love to put it on the lot because they know the value of the old ones and could sell it immediately
A six year old Tundra with 20k miles , depending on trim, options, etc, could easily be worth more than many new Tundras due to the lack of reliability in the new Tundra. Certainly they could make a whole lot more money off of your truck just by lowballing you on it and then turning around and selling it the next day for far more than they paid. I’d definitely keep it.
I just now went out into my driveway and hugged my 2018 V-8 Tundra. 😎
😂🎉
Did you do anything to the tail pipe
@@motiv1😂
😂😂😂😂, have had 2 5.7’s wish I never sold mine

Metal shavings for over 100,000 engines?
Bull! It’s a design flaw. Admit it Toyota.
Yup. Oil journals are too small and it’s starving the engine of oil.
@@donovanchilton5817 Same thing happened with the 3.3 and 3.5 V6s. Too small journals, though they never admitted to it.
I with ya.
The engines are machining themselves as they run, perfectly normal.😑
I work at at Toyota Service center it is only 22 and begin of 23 engines that are failing. They have metal shavings all in them from producing its a Miricale they last as long as they have before failing.
Should have stayed with the V8
Blame the Dems for voting for the green garbage.
Yeah, but the EPA cares about mpg, smog, etc., not reliability.
Scotty said in the previous video that Toyota knows how to make quality turbo v6s
They are only incentivized. Toyota can choose to still sell NA engines. They just want the FED money. Also, all the R&D is going to electric. “They” don’t want us to be able to travel anymore. All part of the elites master plan.
Had the V8 for 14 years. Engine just as strong on the last day as the first.
Not just engine problems. They have fit and finish issues. Build quality is sub par. I am sticking with my old Toyota's
Yes. Only new Toyota I buy will be from Japan- like the crown.
Agreed. Toyota is the new Stellantis Ram, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep. Terrible body integrity and cheap build and engineering quality.
Any recommendations on year model
@@anxietyvibes 2010 and above are low problem years, 2019 they quit installing transmission coolers on the Tundra. I think the 2013 is one of the best years. but up to 21 they are descent.
My 08 1GR-FE 4Runner has 230k and drives like new. Made in Japan.
I bought a 2021 V8 Tundra. Last year of the V8. I will never sell it or Trade it. Love it. Pills my rv with no problem.
Good for you.2019 sequoia platinum will never sell it too
Me as well.. I smelled a rat on the v6 twin turbo
I talked my brother into doing the same.
Toyota is turning into the rest of the automotive industry, they don't give a 💩💩
Not agree
is all about profit for them and they allow their dealers to screw their loyal customers
Govt regulations gonna kill the auto industry, just saying.
@@TacoDave2019 EXACTLY RIGHT ABOUT THAT
They get great high teck advice from BMW
Seriously!
Their cheap cars are still simple and OK.
I bought a 23 Corolla Cross. Nothing special but it is OK.
We have 2 from our Fleet that are getting engines, a 22 and a 23. The 2023 left one of my guys stranded. Dealership has no idea what to do yet.
Tundras?
My dad's F150 needs a new engine so he's using my old trusty 2008 Tundras with the 5.7L V8. Has 300,000 miles, really sucks how bad Toyota ruined the Tundra.
@@sasharamirez2335get the new frontier pro-x. Better than the new Tacoma.
Imagine me and my wife and little girl stranded on the road because my 2022 Tundra engine broke down. What a shame seeing a Tundra TRD Pro being towed
We are lucky to have you Scotty. Common sense is a rare commodity these days.
2008 tundra limited here. Absolutely love her.
Ford: No one can build crappier engines than us!
Toyota: Hold my saki.
My fords have been great so far.i have a lot of friends with the same experience
😂😂😂
Kia and Hyundai
Chevy been doing it for the last 70 years😂😂 Even Worst yet Chrysler dodge..fml what and embarrassment.... Then if you think it can't get worse...... JEEP. The vehicle i want to love but can't
Ford to Toyota: "You have learned well, grasshopper"
They should have kept the V8.
Blame the EPA
Nah man 4 cylinder gaybos are the future
Yes the 3UZFE V8s can easily go hundreds of thousands of miles!!!
Yes!
They do what the government mpg guidelines are forcing them to do.
My father has a 2022 Tundra SR5 TRD Sport 4x4. He drives it a lot, and has racked up over 90,000 miles since he purchased it. He has had no issues with the engine at all. (Even it being the first next-gen tundra at the dealership he got it from). He did recently have a pin-hole fuel leak somewhere near the tank in a fuel line. It didn't cost him anything as it was already recalled. but he didn't get a notification for it for some unknown reason. Besides that, he has had no issues with it. He has a 2-inch level kit in the front and even upgraded the tire size. Still no issues.
I purchased a 2022 Tundra TRD Pro and the engine broke down twice! Toyota gave me a rental 2023 Tundra SR5 the basic model and it's reliable af. No issues speeding, towing, and everything else. Only comment here is that the suspensions doesn't feel as smooth as the TRD Pro due to perhaps the Fox suspensions, giving you a smoother ride
Very informative! Thank you very much!
Toyota will release a 😊software update to fix the engine debris
i don't think software can control metal debris
😂
😂😂
@@xxalazin he was making fun of tesla dogshit lol

It's a race to the bottom. These companies are producing anything they can before shtf.
It's called planned obsolescence, it forces us to waste more of our heart earned $$$ for another vehicle
Profit Profit 👈
@@nasirnasiry2836 I don’t necessarily think you’re wrong. However profit isn’t a bad thing. They won’t make a profit if they build crap and the factory is shut down.
@@Vincent-ke5zn Toyota didn't become king by putting out planned obsolescence vehicles. They won't change their philosophy now. It's a brand new engine, they'll work it out.
@@crabbymilton390 I think that all profit is a negative thing because over a long enough period of time the incentive to profit will always drive anyone or any company to become morally evil and try to screw others over for pennies. Our entire "civilization" is centered around money though so its far too late and all that is left is to watch humanity destroy itself, money is the "god" of this world and it has infected almost everyone now.
I went to buy a new tundra a month ago. Didn’t know they took out the V8s. Toyota Dealership was like these v6 turbos are better. I spent 3 hours at the dealership reading tundra threads & articles. Later that day I left with a 21 sr5 tss with 20k miles already had a 3 inch lift & 35s on it. Each day I’m more thankful for all these videos and threads. Especially since I pull my RV and trailer.
I like and WOW amazing TY so much ,,Keep up the great work
Nissan Frontier over in the corner looking better and better 😉
Yep, currently looking for a 24 Frontier crew cab 4x4 longbed SV, taking a break from Toyotas.
I am a lexus collector & own a toyota. But the Nissan Titan is a best kept secret. It had a N/A V8 & rear locker.
Price is also getting better, for them.
I think the Frontier is better looking....more masculine, not all Subaru-butch looking like the Tacoma. Also, would rather have the NA 6 in the Frontier.........
I liked it when people weren’t paying attention to the Frontier. Now prices will go up.
You know it is a severe problem when people are returning their tundras with a blown engine at 7,000, miles!!
Sad part of the turbos is, when they go bad, you have to remove the CAB. Imagine the shop labor on that one.
I don’t think it’s loose metal debris that fell in. I think that’s front bearing material because they used a ladder system to secure their bearings not one cap per bearing. It’s my belief that the ladder system acts like a heat sink and expands and pushes out the front bearing. I’ve seen pictures that looks like they drilled some holes and tried to bolt near the front bearing to try to prevent the expansion on their one piece ladder system. Checking the bearings and measuring them is a waste of time
This post is helpful and I might've just learned something. Thanks.
I'd buy this new Tundra with the good ol' V8 in a heart beat. This V6 Turbo disgrace? Hard pass.
Got a 2021 last of v8. No I won't sell it to you
...and $20,000 of MSRP.
Ford loves cramming those things into big vehicles..everything, really...and then there's the full size Chevy truck with the 4 cylinder.....
@@jjohnson8977 I traded in my 2018 for a 2021 !😁
@@jjohnson8977 I have a 21 as well. Last of the V8 reliable trucks. I was on the fence too.. almost picked up a 22! Dodged a bullet!
When Toyota brings back the 5.7s, they should make a Scotty Edition.
💯
or they could make a 307 economy engine 🙂
@@Dankcatvacs The 4.6 is great. Not sure why you would want something new.
No kidding 👍👍
No way. Can you just hear it? "PUT YOUR SEATBELT ON! YOU LEFT THE KEYS IN THE IGNITION!"
i swear i love your videos, much love from TANZANIA
If your tundra engine has failed, the only smart thing to do is take it to the dealer, wait, and lemon law the thing.
What's the process of getting a lemon law?
@@RyDaHero10 Check with your State Attorney General Office - they have that info.
The dealer has to attempt to fix the same problem 3 times without success, immediate 🍋 law
@@TheyLive2024 True. Imagine spending 65,000 to 100,000 on a Tundra and its in the shop getting a new motor. Ill stick with the only 2 remaining non-turbo mid-size trucks. Nissan Frontier and Honda Ridgeline
@lancelotlink3907 I backed out of buying a Tundra, too pricey, poor fit and finish, no V8. Just bought a low mileage 2020 F150 V8 for half the price of a Tundra including extended warranty.
Smoother ride, tow package, off road package. Couldn't be happier!
Twin turbos twin problems
😂🤣😂
Very good point 2x the problems and 2x the cost of repairs
That will come after the warranty expires. 0W-08 oil anybody?
Twin purchases too. Once for $80k to buy, and another for the $30k second engine after the warranty.
Well said!
To be accurate if we are going to criticize Toyota, this problem with metal shavings is happening in US Tundra's and Sequoias as well as Lexus, which are built in Japan, and as far as I can tell, with essentially the same motor but cast and built in Japan. If that is true, then this process control failure is occurring at more than one engine plant.
Which means its more likely a design flaw vs quality control. How does QC fall apart world wide across both Lexus and Toyota? Its not debris!
@@BorderTurrets It’s possible it can be a combination of things with the design being absolutely fine, but the Process Control isn’t and the QA isn’t. If you have programming that isn’t just perfect for boring or drilling oil passages in journals or the inadequate programming of machine that is supposed to clean the shavings completely out, you would have this mistake in both locations on both the drill processes and debris cleaning. The QA may be automated as well…
Count on Toyota to stand behind their products and fix the problems with their vehicles; something many manufacturers don’t do.
This is NOT an easy fix as you think it is...
They did not do that with the sludge in their early 6 cylinders unless you knew the secret words.
They haven't fixed but a few so far.
100,000 +++ to go.
Don't hold your breath.
Flog your 22/23/24 as fast as you can. Or you will be walking or getting the Amish to deliver your work stuff to the site!
Just saying ...
You just might be lucky.
It's no longer Chevy vs Dodge vs Ford or gas vs diesel or even automatic vs manual it's all of us against this electric s***!!!
The V6 engines are built in Huntsville,Alabama, USA. 😂😂 Engines not built in Mexico.
That's even worse !
Yes but they had Mexican beer . so there !
@@608portraits9 I disagree but it feels good to say it that way.
It makes no difference. quality build is going down the toilet with many car manufacturers, sad. Profit is king.
Made in ‘Murica!
Like Boeing, even Toyota's succumbing to pressure to go down in quality.
When others in the automaker market are hot on your heels sometimes even those known for a reputation of quality have to do this. After all they have to answer to shareholders who care about a return.
Its governmnet mandates that are sending Toyota down the tubes. Otherwise they could stick with there tried and true designs. Now they have toi change to meat these government mandates.
I will not buy a new truck from any manufacturer
I have a 2007 FJ cruiser with 250 ,000 miles with no major problems. I love this truck
The FJ will last a life time literally, its built like no other and very reliable
Thank God for your Channel !
Good lookin out on Toyota …✌️
Machining debri in the engine is bologna.... its bad design
This kills the Lexus GX550…that’s why they are stopping taking orders
The entire drivetrain had recalls. Time to go.
I have an IS500 & was planning a purchase of a local Black GX550. Nope, no thanks!
mexico
GX550 have same engine but different working type . I think it will last and stay perfect (gx is almost old school type)
@@kuyre2239 You can blame Mexico, China, Mars or whoever you want and I won’t disagree. But the blame still goes to TOYOTA for not making sure things are done right. They’re just making up excuses. Or else they started hiring former FORD or BOEING people 🤣.
You’re the best, Scotty. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.
Coming from a Toyota affcionado mechanic. Thanks Scotty for the honest explanation vs what was printed in the news.
This is another reason i bought a 2024 nissan frontier no problems at all😊

Yet
Can say the same thing about a new 2024 kia...
Yup brand new and no problem,I’m surprised every day.

Serves Yota right. Raising prices 30% at the same time cutting labor from $15 to $2 per hr. Karma is coming for the greedy and I'm here for it!
Don’t follow on the labor savings. Tundra is made in Texas. Doubt labor has been anywhere near $15 an hour for years either.
@@craigmoody3812 You actually just proved my point. They sell WAY more Tacos and Corolla (made in Mexico) than they do Tundra. And I was just spitballing 15 an hr. Go ahead and make that number higher and further prove my point. They are saving an easy 80% in labor in that Mexico Factory and they didn't pass a dime along to us in savings. Instead, they jacked the price up 30%.
Love your content Scotty.
Thanks for bringing Canada up 🇨🇦
If you can't even rely on Toyota, there's nothing left in the new car market to bother with. Tihs is why the V8s depreciation has stalled out entirely, they are more desirable than any of the new turds.
You clearly have never owned let alone drove a 2nd gen or 4th gen RAM 3500 a REAL pickup. 300k on both mine and they still run and drive like a top 🎉
I think you are right. Make my 2021 trd/limited with 23k miles a nice money maker$
@@rogerrettinger3225 every single time someone says Toyota is good, there's always just one Ford/Chevy/Dodge guy there to be like durrrr I had/have a truck witk 300k miles on it durrrr!
Your truck doesn't overrule decades of KBB dominance by Toyota. On top of that, you're probably a mechanic and fixed many problems yourself over the course of those 300k miles. People like Toyota because they make it to 300k without any maintenance besides very basic maintenance. And KBB is the standard, anything you try to argue beyond that is wasted breath--and typical homer idiocy.
@@rogerrettinger3225 the ram's diesel engine grid heater bolt just happens to grenades itself after the warranty is over, melts into the engine and have to replace the engine cause it caused so much damage. 2nd generation dodge rams were good tho but the rust on them over time disintegrates the whole body 😢
No way its debris. I dont buy it. Design error.
Either that or assembly errors!
Check!
Will keep my 2020 TRD Sport for now.
Thanks Scotty.
Nissan stopped the V8 Titan too soon. With the poor reliability of this new tundra, Nissan would have sold a ton of Titan V8 by now, just like a lot of people are turning to the Nissan frontier over the new Tacoma with the turbo 4-cylinder.
Not convinced that’s the root of the problem. They talked about the bearing changes
Front bearings. BINGO
I have a Honda Civic with the Turbo engine. Some You Tuber Guy has like 700,000 miles on his turbo Honda! I like the Turbo that Honda put out, works great for me!
I was considering a Tundra but not anymore...
I’m glad I bought my 2017 1794 tundra, still running like new with 84K miles o far
I was waiting on your take on this issue Scotty
Like you, I had great success with an electric lawn mower and a 6,200 foot lot, and maybe 1,300 feet of lawn. The major disaster was when I did not leave it plugged in one winter, and the battery lost 70% of its range.
During winter I check battery charge on lawnmower; in summer I do the same for the snow blower battery.
Nissan Frontier and Titan both don’t have turbo engines. Both sound like a better deal new these days…
Traded my 2020 Titan 4x4, for a 2020 Tundra 4x4. Cost me 5k difference. 56k on the Titan, only 21k on the Tundra.
This is the last year for the Titan unfortunately. I've talked to a few Titan owners and all seemed happy with them other than it being a "gas pig" - which they knew going in.
Frontier is kinda the same. Just out there doing their job. Seeing a LOT of the new Gen. Frontiers around.
Not heard/read of anyone having any issues with either model.
@@NVRAMboi if you came from a 2nd gen Tundra with the 5.7 you'll feel right at home in a Titan. The VK56VD/ 9 speed will net you 1-2 MPG better than the Tundra while making it to 300K miles quite easily.
Nissan is throwing a bunch of money on the hood too, it might end up being the bargain priced truck of the year. I've seen Frontiers selling for more than Titans
@@NVRAMboi Yeah, I'd seriously consider a Titan if I needed a new truck, but the gas mileage sucks and you have to use premium ga$oline.
Friend of mine is a mechanic at a Nissan dealer and all he did was replace 5.6 litre engines from the titan. He did that for years.
Same thing is happening with the new Lexus GX550 as well. They have stopped deliveries, claiming it's a QC problem with the sunroof. The sunroof does have issues, but that's not why their halting deliveries.
I love my V6 Honda with disabled VCM. 9SP is now buttery smooth
Toyota has a real mess to straighten out on the new Tundra. I think they are not telling us all they know what is wrong with the V6 turbo.
I think it’s a bad design and they are trying to decide what the cheapest thing is to do
Sister buys a new Tundra every other year. Salesman at the dealership told her not to buy a new one for at least several years. Let Toyota to work the bugs out.
Their quality is starting to go downhill, like the rest of the automakers.
Just ran some errands in my 2000 Tahoe. Smooth as silk, doesn’t leak oil, still original brakes, original a/c system blowing cold. And it will tow 8,000+ pounds. Looks new, leather smells new.
lmao...a Tahoe...nothing to brag about chump.
Thank you Scotty for reminding me (not that I needed it) to love my 12 Rav4 V6 that much more. 3.5L and NA. Oh and full size spare tire and wheel. Also non interference. Also can actually perform some semblance of awd.
I have heard the new Tacoma turbo 4-bangers are spinning bearings like crazy…thanks I’ll pass.
Oof I'll keep driving my 2016 4runner till it won't run anymore
@@tedbell4416that is going to last a LONG time if you live in an area where it's not going to rust. 30 years from now.... Still going
You knew that was coming.
YUP Next up on the plate of death.
And they ain't cheap either.
I like my 2017 but I do NOT want a turbo in my truck? I just want a decent v6 or v8 NA engine that'll last 300k .......
I am so glad I saw this show. I was planning on buying the Tundra.
I had a 21 Lexus NX300 with 2 L turbo for three months. After all the bad pub I was hearing about turbo engines, Insold it and bought a 13 RX 350 with that gorgeous 3.5 V6. Soooo glad I did. Beautiful engine with only 125k km. Years left on it!
I have a Japanese made Mitsubishi van 2.4 gasoline 4cyl it's 25 years old and over 350 000 KMs and still going strong.
Both the new tundras, tacomas, & 4 runners (next year) are trash. They purposely made these vehicles too complex and DIY less friendly so that people will keep buying more of their vehicles as they break early. Me, I am keeping my old Toyota.
The new land cruiser is a worthless little turbo 4 hybrid turd as well.
yep, tbh, within the past 2-3 years the fords are better than the new toyotas. i don't like the way ford went either with the tiny turbochargered engines in the bronco and ranger but at least they hold up.

I have a NA 2015 Mazda 3 built from Mexico plant. Not a single issue. I’m still rolling on the transmission fluid I drove off the lot in 2015. My gas mileage is lesser I’ve noticed but I do need a flush on the transmission. All I’ve had to really do is replace the control arm and I did the rotors and pads myself
SCOTTY, do you feel similarly about the 4-cylinder turbo engines in the new Toyotas coming ?
I Deviced to keep my 20' Tundra and bought a 24' 4Runner to avoid the issues.
Thanks
The new 4Runner motors will be next. Hmmm ? All other new Toyota engines ???
And these are the reasons why the previous CEO abandoned ship...he didn't like the direction Toyota was going
Akio Toyoda was moved up to the "Chairman" position from "President". He's still around and I'm glad. His name is on the product.
Well. At least he voted with his feet, and nothing stuck on the souls of his shoes.
Smart man. Japanese BMW's What a combo poop sandwich!
I love towatch your video you speak with reality
Indeed the vehicle with manual transmission is great for off-roading, too. Scotty confirmed it., too.
Bought a new Mazda CX5 , Three words sold me MADE IN JAPAN ………..🇯🇵. Quality control undeniably is proven time after time. For what ever reason. Not emotional simply factual. 😎😎😎
A lot of Toyota models for sale in the USA are still mfr'd in Japan. Mazdas too. Our Mazda was built in their Hiroshima facility. I still miss that car.
Agree !!!
Will be replacing my wife's '17 Nissan Rogue with a CX5 when I retire in 3 years.... Mazda still using tried and true 2.5L engine and 6 speed trans.... no CVT !!!! 👍🏼
@@NVRAMboi Is it radioactive?
Mazda quality is very good, building great cars ever since they kicked Ford out the door in 2012.
The engine was engineered in Japan. This is a design problem.
Going to stick with my 1987 Yugo for time being.
i will stick with my 1979chevy C20 Silverado custom Deluxe
Trying to remember....was it the doors falling off or the tie rod ends breaking that killed the Yugo?

2020 Tundra 5.7 2wd crewmax and love it forever ❤️
Guess I will hold onto my 2018 Tundra with the 5.7 V8 for. a few more years. Rock solid!
RIP Toyota! Didn't it just get announced that Toyota falsified tests too... I believe that's what the headlines I skimmed said.
Yeah three bottles sold in Japan only at least that’s what we know so far anyway
Falsified safety tests. Not only Toyota, Hond,Mazda, Suzuki and others. Seems like collusion on how to rig the system.
Yes. Along with (allegedly) falsifying some mandatory safety testing requirements. First their was their HINO truck Division, then their Daihatsu car division and now this. I've kinda lost count between scandals and recalls details (internet search knows). It's been a very "un-Toyota-like" last 3-4 years.
Trying to replace a good V8 with a V6 turbo is like a bad omen. No way I would buy one and I've owned 9 toyotas and currently have 2.
I work near a Toyota dealer and I’ve seen multiple Tundra’s on the lift with the bodies taken off and motor apart. Tech’s say they’ve seen 4 or 5 now with spun crank bearings.
They just Released News, that Toyota has also been caught Cooking the Books, when it comes to some Safety Testing on some Vehicles !!!
Scotty always throwing shade at Mexico
for good reason
They suck!
I have experienced that personally with Mexican built trucks. 97 Tahoe , 97 Ram 2500.
I would have more confidence in the quality of a Car produced by hard working Mexican folks, than anything produce by UAW flunkies.
They NEED shade....... Its really sunny there
I still remember those Snapper electric push mowers that took an extension cord, my neighbor needed to splice his cord multiple times each summer!
This just makes me love my 2017 Tundra even more.
NEVER buy the first generation of any engine (in this case - the V35A engine)!
Never buy first generation anything that is mechanical, especially when the government makes the rules on what the outcome of the product should be. I worked for Briggs and Stratton.
In this case its 2 + years of engines. I heard a 2024 owner had 2 engines replaced so far. I am curious to see how they fix this!
Read this people thinking about the new Ram TT straight 6. first year. More power than the Hemi it's replacing but you know it's going to cost a big time to fix
I love my first generation LB7.
@@ronfazer24232018 to be specific, it came first on the LS in that year.
Still driving my reliable 2003 Tundra 4.7L 4x4! Bought it slightly used with 5K on it in 2003.
108K trouble-free miles and just getting broken in.
got a 06 myself. 230k miles and counting!
I have 2002 4.7 4x4 196k miles, still running strong
Dang you don't drive it much!
Hell gor y,'all beat with my wifes special order Limited 2003 Tundra that has 265,000 miles on her. The only thing done was to change the alternator thousand miles ago. Just pull routine oil, grease job, and timing belt.
Still runs like a champ.
@@gringoloco8576fr i thought i got a steal 😂 10k miles per year, its an 05 tundra with 180k miles so 18 years (same age as me)
You are the best Scotty!!
2002 Tundra 212,000 20 years ownership. Bought with 26,000 glad to still have it.
Took my 2024 to dealership 10k on it the turbo fan o fans broke it's what they said ? Warranty is covering it
So sorry to hear that
did they make the impellers out of soda cans?
dang.
Bad turbo fan is easier to say than All Those Engines Are Messed Up!
Glad I have the 3.5 L V6 N/A. Should last forever compared to the new engines.
I have a '17 Tacoma TRD Sport with the V6. Paid $28k. Was offered $30K IN CASH a few months ago. I said nope. I plan on keeping it for a very long time.
Very strong engine.
Change oil+ filter at 5K every time,don't buy the 10K nonsense.
I have an -18 TRD OR LB. I'm sticking with it.
The engine oil cools and lubes the turbos too. Are they going to replace the turbos?
Need to buy scan tool to program abs pump on 2011 f150 any recommendations scotty
See what you do in Canada is pull a trailer with a generator on it. So, you extend the range in cold weather.
Remember when they had rusty frames on their trucks? They kept it under wraps. Some dealers had people dedicated to replacing frames full time.
Yep. LOTS of 2000 - 2007 Tundra/Taco truck owners up in the Northeast had major league rust out problems with their frames, and Toyota was very resistant to really resolving the problem.
@@eskieman3948 Toyota loyalists usually deny these issues and still think their brand is perfect.....
What new truck would be recommended with crew cab?
Love it !!!!
Remember they had to go Turbo for the Fuel Economy. It gets a whopping 20 mpg instead of 19 like the Ford V8.
A lot of saving
Don't forget the rubbish of 'cleaner emissions'. CAFE standards need to be repealed.
I really wanted a Tundra last fall. I just didn't want to pay the price for a new truck at $60k. I opted for a 2020 F150 5.0 with under 13k miles. We drove it on 2 business trips, Florida and St Louis. Best mileage I was getting was 17mpg. I'm quite okay with it. It's a truck and it guzzles gas.
Regarding non-Japanese built faults, I heard the lx 600 engines were affected as well, and those are built in Japan.
any advice, planing on getting chevy malibu 2.4 ltz europe version with EcoTec engine any advice? thank you
Its not just there trucks we have the same issue with them here at our industrial equipment factory here in Indiana.
All new engines are way down on reliability. Direct injection and variable valve timing be the biggest problems. Too complicated
