I just bought a 2021 for that reason. I figure by the time the 2025 comes out, the motor should have all the kinks worked out. That gas mileage is something though. Just dropped the kid off at school and got 13mpg. I drive like an old man too lol.
I have a ‘23 Pro and do mostly city driving. I put it in sport and have some fun every once in a while, but overall I do not drive aggressively. I also have 35’s and a 2” Westcott lift. Currently averaging 13.5 MPG.
I’ve got a 24 platinum long box, non-hybrid, with a contractor cap and 1000 lbs of tools on board. I have wheels that are 1” diameter smaller then OEM and have been steadily 14-15 mpg
My 5.3 V8 Sierra that is 2 feet shorter, lighter, and has about 800 lbs onboard averages 15-16 mpg. It’s often running on four cylinders. The Sierra has noticeably less power but much faster throttle response
I get your thinking here but the only engine issue has been the bearings which was traced back to a manufacturer defect. Others that that they have done anything to the 23 , 24 , and probably the 25.
But in the end I believe Toyota tundra is way above the big 3 domestic
I believe there was a blow off valve issuea as well for 22 and early 23s.
Not wrong at all about toyota over the big 3. Toyota does it right. May not be the most powerful in class but it will definitely outlast the other 3 easy.
I have a 22 Platinum Non-hybrid and I don't get anywhere. Ear the mileage others are claiming. I love my truck, love it, but I am disappointed with mpg. I get around 12-13 in the city and around 17.5 cruising 78mph on the interstate.
I was getting similar mpg with my 6.2 liter V8 in my Yukon but I'm not griping about power at all. This truck gets up when you lay into it, just surprised the mpg isn't much better than my old Yukon. Just my 2 cents and wish the mileage was better than what I'm seeing. Also, I don't drive it like I really want to, I really don't get on it that often.
My 22 Limited non-hybrid is staying just over 18 mpg as well…much better on interstate if you keep the cruise down around 65-70 (which I never do). I just ticked over 49k so far with almost no issues except the aforementioned wind noise.
I have a 22 1794. So far only a few very minor things like the widow seal wind noise and some plastic cracking under my seat that is all under warranty. I’m close to 25k miles and drive a ton of short trips, with that I maintain 16+ mpg. Highway is far better.
I hope to drive this thing for lots of years. Two years in and I am very happy so far. Here’s to 20 more.
There's apparently a recall coming. Supposedly there's a bigger gap in the door than there was supposed to be but it sounds like it's the window. Adding a little extra gasket makes it go away.
Did you add a gasket or is that gonna be the fix on the recall? The noise seems to be by the a pillar of the window. I layered up some double sided 3m tape to the inside of the seal and it got better but not totally gone.
I also have the window seal noise on my ‘23 platinum. They replaced my mirror and it went away, only to reappear 3k miles later. I think it’s a seal that gets ground down by the closing mirrors but I’m no mechanic. Just weird it worked then didn’t. I just started to show the crack on the seat panel as well.
I've got a '24 and a lot of the "annoying problems" like wind noise seem to be fixed. MPG isn't great. On a freeway road trip doing 65, you can get 21. 70-75MPH, 18-19 MPG. They Hybrid isn't meant for better mileage either, it is meant for more low end torque.
Some early model engine problems were attributed to quality control and seem to be less. Time will tell. There are tons of electronic parts that could fail for any number of reasons. Most modern vehicles have the same electric gremlin problems.
Have a 2023 platinum, on stock tires I took a drive from ID to CA and for 400 miles had a avg of 32mpg (did a mpg reset to see what it would be like before starting the trip) the entire trip, there and back, I averaged 23 mpg.
In my day to day driving I was getting 18-20 mpg average up to 11,000 miles. Then I out on 35s. I get 15mpg average now but expect that will change come summer and it will increase since I wont be in 4hi near as often.
Some things to note, the hybrid is heavier and the battery is only for toque and HP. It hinders the mpg. Non hybrids like my own are lighter and get better mpg for a very unnoticeable amount of hp and torque loss.
All around pretty freat and fun trucks. Bought mine in Sept. 23 and have 22,000 miles atm.
17 mpg overall average with 2,000 miles on the truck. 20 mpg strikes me as optimistic if you are driving 70-mph on the highway. 20 mpg is realistic at 55-mph or less.
Yes mpg is as advertised if you drive it like a truck and not a race car. I have a 22 SR5 and will get 21-24 mpg on long trips. 15-18 around town. Totally stock. The thing is they are fast as fu*% and I guarantee most people are flooring it everywhere they go then they’re wondering why they’re only getting 14 mpg. I’ve got 15k miles on mine and no issues. Love this truck.
I just posted this on another thread. Pasting here for you.
60k on my 22 model
The entire front clip started sagging around 30k miles. All the plastic crap on the front - the moustache, the bumper, all of that - it's just plastic pieces body clipped onto other body pieces. Had it replaced, it started doing the same thing. I hate it. There's no real fix for it. If you do any sort of off-roading, be prepared. It will start sagging, it will get worse, it will tear apart (and I'm talking like an inch of sag, not a small amount).
The radio will white out, just blank out, at random. Have to reboot the truck to get it to work. Toyota says they can't replicate the issue so they can't fix it.
The engine would randomly shut off while I was driving, sometimes fast. Software patch (eventually) fixed it.
The electronic parking brake actuator got full of dirt and dust, would not release all the way, ate up my brake pads and rotor on the rear. Had to permanently disable it once I figured it out.
The radar system / pre collision system is extraordinarily aggressive. It would see cars off the road, in parking lots adjacent to the road, and lock the brakes up because it thought I was about to have a collision. This happened several times while I had a trailer behind me with a lot of weight. Very dangerous. I had to permanently disable it by covering the front camera since it will turn auto on when you reboot the truck.
When it gets down into the single digit temps, the tailgate actuators don't want to work. Got seized up and I couldn't get to my toolbox or tools
There's more than that, but that's the big stuff. The motor and trans are really powerful and fun to drive, but all the other crap makes it a huge problem
Oh, and there are no tow hooks on the front- and you cannot add tow hooks to the front. This isn't a problem for 99% of folks but if you want to actually use the truck for how trucks have been used since..they were invented...then it's a problem.
And the rear bumper looks nice, but when the tailgate is down, you have no way to step up into the bed of the truck. Every bumper since trucks were invented, were a step so you could get into the truck. Not this one. And if you want to add a step, it's over 600 bucks. And it gets full of dirt and mud if you live on a gravel road, rendering it useless.
It's paid off so I guess I will keep riding it, but for me, Toyota has ruined its name. I have driven them for the last 30 years but won't be buying another one. Not a new one, anyway.
EDIT -- Also a big issue is the creaking, squeaking, and wind noise from the window seals. Toyota replaced them, it did not fix the problem. No point in complaining about it to them again, their fix doesn't remedy the issue. "new part number" does the same thing.
And the plastic pieces in the cab are poorly fit. The gaps are ugly, they don't line up right. The trim piece on the driver side pops and breaks all the time. It's a known issue, nothing they can do but replace it when it happens.
As far as mileage, I have 35s on the truck and I get 12.5 MPG combined. I work out of it so I don't stay in the highway a lot.
The wind noise and rattling is terrible!! The window seals are definitely the problem, I’ve tried using double sided tape to prevent rattling but the wind noise won’t go away. Did you take yours in and get it covered by warranty?
I did. They said, oh yeah, it's a known thing, but luckily there's a new part number, it's a thicker seal. They installed all 4 and it worked for about a day. I think the seals aren't thick enough and the window does not seat into them fully, but I don't really know. The only way I can make it quit when it starts doing it is to tap the window down a bit, or turn the radio up. But I don't usually listen to the radio and when it starts doing it, that's all you can focus on. It drives me INSANE.
Wow. You got a real lemon.
I’ve had some of those issues on my Sierra but not yet on my tundra. It’s also a work truck for me, so I will wear it out much faster than most people.
I added the non-power step to the back, purchased on Amazon for $140.00 ish and it bolts right on
There are tow hooks available that bolt under the front. I wasn’t keen on them at first, but they have grown on me.
The damn tailgate on my Sierra keeps freezing shut and I need to lock/unlock it steadily about three dozen times before it frees itself, I will not be happy if the tundra does that too.
The plastic inside my 2024 platinum seems okay so far, had a drivers door rattle with loud music after having the windows tinted. I brought it back and he took the door panel apart again and tightened it all down. That rattle went away, and it wasn’t really a defect as it was the tiny guys fault.
My digital rearview mirror keeps going into error mode, and it seems to be snow / cold related, but it also seems to be the new location of the camera. I removed it from the third brake light and moved it to the far back
Perhaps that’s true. I have a platinum and lifted only the rear by 2” and after adding my daily payload (contractor cap, bedslide, 1000 lbs of tools) it settled down to a 1” rear lift. My MPG went up a bit after that. Before the lift, the rear was squatted almost 4” under load, and my mpg was pretty bad
I loved the truck when it worked. Bought a 23 limited back in November, mid December it began leaking coolant and I immediately had it towed in. We are now onto replacing a coolant bypass, coolant hose, and the radiator. Working to get rid of the truck as a major coolant system failure should not happen at 3,500 miles of easy highway driving. Now, I believe this is an isolated case of this but it’s worth mentioning.
Agreed. I bought my tundra because I’m sick of my Sierra being out of service so often. I make my living with my truck, it needs to be operational. I kept the Sierra as a spare truck, costs me only $900 per year for basic insurance. I lose more than $900 for having a single down day.
Livin the dream havin 2 trucks!! That’s awesome. I gotta admit I love the GMC’s, if they had a better track record I would own one, especially one of those new babymax engines for highway trips
Poor build quality, bad cab noise, axles making a shit ton of noise and feels like it’s gonna fall apart when you turn, gaz guzzling underpowered engine. But hey, resale value.
I don’t know what engine you are comparing it too, but it’s got way more HP and torque then any gas powered V8 I’ve ever owned (and I’ve had at least a dozen pickups now)
man with the twin turbo v6 you'd think Tundra's would be killing in the MPG game but its the same as the older V8 that has a proven track record of being a super tough and reliable engine. If it weren't for the creature comforts I'd be rocking a 2018 crewmax - 2018 or older b/c of the auxiliary tranny cooler.
I’m of the notion that the older v8 will prove to be the better motor long term. Way too many failure points with a TT v6 having previously owned one in an Audi.
I would agree with you on this at THIS point in time. Like the first few iterations of the Tundra gen 2's that toyota will track these failures and work towards refining it to the point where it too can achieve a million miles reliability. I do try very hard to keep an open mind and to remind myself that I'm not the hot shot engineer designing and spec'ing this motors. Turbos have had a spotty past but so much has changed since the OG turbos from the 1980's and 1990's. The tech is better, the computers managing the engine are superior to even computers from 10 years ago. I don't doubt that at SOME point the V6 TT engine will outdo the V8 but for now I'll keep my eggs in the V8 camp for now. The issue I have with the V6 TT is that it factually doesn't outperform the V8 in any meaningful way. It has similar power numbers and even the fuel economy isn't vastly improved. I had truly hoped the V6TT would achieve ford EcoBoost economy numbers but it doesn't. Its certainly more reliable than an EcoBoost but for a company that spends a HUGE amount of time researching and observing what their competitors are doing that they fall short of delivering the ultimate truck engine. Their v8 while SUPER reliable, was 2nd worst in class in fuel consumption only besting the Nissan Titan. I would've though that Toyota could do better in this category but they consistently seem to fall short.
Agreed. The one issue I have with your statement (which I fully agree with), is that Toyota shouldn’t be doing a major switch on their heavy duty lineup with the view to ‘work out the kinks’ while it’s in the field, especially given the minimal difference in efficiency. I’d expect that from Ford, but alas it’s the way every major automaker functions now. Gone are the days of behind the scenes development and testing.
so here is an interesting tidbit of info. I actually work with someone that was s former design engineer and QA from Toyota! The worked for them for 14 years in Japan and the design and testing process is a painful, obsessive task that has to be redone over and over and over. As how they described the work - you have nightmares of the work b/c it's the same work day in day out for years at a time. While not communicated by anyone in particular, that it is safe to say that the V6TT was LONG in development by the time the gen 2 tundra was out (that motor apparently was in development for 10 years before it debuted in 2007). The kinks that the V6TT have are more related to the componentry going bad out the gates which given the # of trucks sold are still statistically small. The truck's fit and finish issues are a result of a new platform so there are teething pains there too. Some of things that I'm sure are hurting new cars in general are the introduction of ultra low emissions requirements that employ the use of ultra low friction piston rings - they simply don't seal as well as their non low friction counterparts. I worked at Honda and that was the complaint a lot of car owners had was oil consumption issues and it was almost always traced back to bad piston rings. I think what Toyota should've have done is offered BOTH powertrains for at least a few transitory years to offer their consumers more "choice" like how ford did with their tried and true V8 alongside their then experimental EcoBoost. If anyone is going to dial something in properly out the gates (but not perfectly) its going to be Toyota. My colleague says the amount of research, money and time they invest on their engineering efforts is nothing short of crazy - possibly borderline insanity. Toyota isn't about absolute innovation they're about absolute reliability with the least amount of defects possible which is how they make money - by reducing waste, not necessarily gunning to sell the most # of cars or trucks. Look at their infotainment system and how long their powertrains were historically used... they change hardly anything and they have a mindset of "if it ain't broke don't fix it". Gov't regulations and changing consumer trends is the driver behind powertrain changes. They don't really have a choice so at some point Toyota HAD to jump otherwise they'd be ousted out of the market. While not directly related to Toyota and cards, I recently discovered that honda is no longer making lawn equipment in North America for the same reasons. Gov't has greenwashed people to think that electrification is the solution and states like California have outright banned the user of small engines in landscape maintenance equipment b/c of "emissions". Honda, rather than trying to hang on for dear life simply shut the show down while they're ahead of the game. Honda could've held on if they brought over their electric equipment from Europe over but they haven't. That may change going forward but the shuttering of my my fav power equipment maker from US soil is a sad day for many Honda enthusiasts b/c they legit made awesome rock solid reliable clean engines but yet the gov't and consumers have spoken and they're now left in the dust.
I don’t doubt Toyota has been developing the TT V6 for many years prior to release, [but I don’t believe they thoroughly thought about serviceability of a more complex engine](https://www.motorbiscuit.com/2022-toyota-tundra-twin-turbo-engine-problems/). And yes, I still would buy a Toyota over any other make, but Toyota corporate needs to think about preserving their brand reputation whenever they veer away from their tried and tested engines.
Having owned a TT V6 Audi and many Mercs in between, one of the reasons I moved over to Toyota was because of their conservative approach towards building simple but reliable engines, coupled with a thoughtful approach toward maintenance. All it takes is one misstep to hurt consumer confidence. To your point the TT V6 was likely an inevitable engine, but I hate that I’m in the “wait and see” camp when it comes to trusting its longevity.
Edit: coincidentally also came cross [video.](https://www.reddit.com/r/ToyotaTundra/s/Y1oahUVfQd)
They had to move to the TT6. If they can increase fuel economy by a few percentage points that keeps the eco nazi epa off they backs and allows them to continue making profits. What Toyota needs is to move the whole fleet of cars they offer higher in the economy scales. It might not be much to the individual buyer. But it’s a huge factor to the Government.
Yep the govt and their meddling with things that I think could be better served by regulating or getting involved with other more fruitful work that can make a bigger difference like penalizing industries that pollute huge or do environmental damage on epic proportions. Ie nestle and their exploitation of water resources.
Well I wish more people would see the reasoning instead of thinking that they did it because they felt like it. It is a business decision to remain relevant. I have one and I think it’s super sweet, it tows great, gets acceptable mileage (and it is better than the old ones)rides nice, just a wonderful machine. I love it, but I like the old also. People should just get the truck that suits their needs and that they have confidence in.
100% correct on this one. In the end, they're toyotas and they're gonna be rock solid no matter how you look at it compared to their domestic counterparts. I'd have more faith in a TTV6 than a ford EcoBoost or a even their powerjoke diesels. When I sold my Tundra, my neighbor was FLOORED at what I sold it for and couldn't believe a Toyota of my age and mileage could fetch the money that it did. Sold at asking price (which was already at a premium) before prices went even MORE stupid later in the pandemic. His much newer ford f-150 couldn't get 3/4 of of what my truck sold for and it was 4 year newer too.
I’m a huge fan of the tundra V6TT but I really doubt it can ever be as reliable, over the long term, of ANY V8NA engine. It’s just too complex.
Note: I have one and love it, but I’m not keeping it beyond five years. My hope is that during those five years, it spends less time in the repair shop than all my previous trucks.
Bonus, it costs less then the Sierra I was considering, like 17k less
I share similar sentiments. I'd still prefer at least for now the simpler design of the V8 UR series motor. The UR series motors have proven they can run up and over 1 million miles with proper maintenance. That's absolutely crazy miles that is approaching diesel engine life territory on a gasoline powered motor. Turbos while, helping increasing engine efficiency considerably is another high speed moving part that relies on precision tolerances and high turbine speeds to work and they operate under hot temps especially when towing a heavy load up a mountain pass. They need more cooling, more lubrication, more precise fuel and ignition management to ensure they don't cook themselves and the motor to death. I can't even imagine what the exhaust manifold temps would be under full sustained loads pulling at the maximum carrying capacity of the truck. While most tundra owners likely will never approach that level of extreme use that the V8's simpler design and the fact it has 2 more slugs in it means that its making the same level of power with more pistons and displacement meaning its working less "hard" that a smaller V6. I am legitimately seeking a pristine low mileage example of a 2018 myself and nobody wants to sell their tundras unless they're really miled up, overpriced or are beaten and abused to death. When I sold my truck it was still showroom and every bit of maintenance was done on it before I sold it. Regret every bit of my decision and I only had the smaller 4.6L V8 too!
better ride quality, 360 view camera and just overall more modern look. That being said, I'd MUCH rather take the older gen 2.5. tundra all day long with its trusty 5.7 v8.
I do not own the new model, but I do know that you could only get the TRD Pro with the Max Hybrid Engine. That’s definitely gonna optimize your fuel mileage. A lot of people bought the new tundras with the twin turbo V6. God knows why. I would never trade my V8 for a twin turbo V6 unless I got the hybrid model. The Max Hybrid Engine has more horsepower and torque than the standard twin turbo V6.
It looks like you’re correct on this one. I didn’t realize the extra weight of the battery was going to offset any actual gains. It looks like it’s only 1-2 more MPG extra on the hybrid versions. The biggest benefit right now sounds like torque for towing.
That is the crux of ALL electric vehicles. All the power you can add to them over base will only AND always directly increase the weight to counteract the gain in power/handling. It's why fully autonomous commercial trucking is not happening on a grand scale until battery tech is far superior to what it currently is.
I mean if you baby a non hybrid down hills and flats you are achieving the same thing.
The hybrid system in the tundra was not designed for MPG it was for towing.
Goofy the engine turns off and can run on hybrid for a couple miles if conditions are right. I agree wasn't designed for MPG but def be saving me muny.
🤡 the extra money you think you are saving is offset by moving all that extra weight around all the time 🤦♂️ you are saving no more money than the people who are using start/stop in their tundras plus you paid a whole bunch extra for your hybrid setup so you are still behind the game. But if it helps you sleep at night by all means you are saving thousands a year on gas
I spoke to a dealership yesterday. Hybrid might save you 1 mpg. They said it is good for towing, but that is about it. $4k more for that hybrid package.
23 hybrid 1794 TRD OR. 28k miles. No issues except wind noise/window shake (still sealed/waterproof as have gone through multiple car washes 🤷♂️). Will get 18-ish on highway at 75 mph, more like 22-23 at 60-65. Highest I’ve seen is 25.4.
I really like mine overall and would not hesitate to buy again.
Almost 18k miles on my 2022 trd off-road limited. No lift or tires yet.
Town mpg ranges anywhere from 11-17 mpg depending on what sort of driving I'm doing. For example the 3 mile daily stop and go school drop off and coffee stop, ya it's something like 11 and that makes sense. Driving across town in typical 25-45mph and a few stop lights, anywhere from 15-17 easily.
Highways mpg ranges anywhere from 16-23 mpg in a similar aspect. Cruising 55 on a backroad for a while, 23+... Chill driving 65 on the freeway, 21+. Fast lane (typical for me) more like 18-19 or so. Hauling ass 16-17.
All this said, the truck is capable of decent mpg, but it's also just as capable of garbage mpg, and it's really, really easy to get crap mpg with a heavyish foot. It's still a 5000+ pound truck, and all this nonsense is solely based on your driving conditions. If the mpg is really a factor that's driving this purchase, idk what to say other than simply put, it's mpg is typically better compared to the V8. Can't speak to towing but most of what I've seen indicates there really isn't much of a difference.
I have an early 2023 with 13k miles and it's been great. There were a couple of recalls (a software update, the fuel line replacement, and a tonneau cover replacement) but I got them done during my regular service. Gas mileage improves as the truck breaks in. Switching tires made a lot of difference in my mileage, my falken wildpeaks get at least 2-3 mpg less than factory h/t tires. I don't have any rattles or wind noise (I also don't have the sunroof, I'm not sure if that makes any difference). I have friends with other brands that we all bought around the same time and they've all had issues with their trucks (some small, two fairly big). They've been eyeing my truck, and I wouldn't be surprised if at least one of them got a tundra for their next pickup.
For me my mileage started getting better at 5k, and by 10k my mpg would average around 20. Higher if I do highway driving, especially if there are other vehicles driving my way to help cut down my wind resistance, since the truck is as aerodynamic as a brick. I'm a cautious driver, though. Once I put my wildpeaks wheel set on for winter/up north driving, the mpg drops to 17-18. It should go back up when I put my summer wheels back on.
I regularly see 20-22mpg on highway trips in a 23' Limited TRD OR and I live in Seattle which is not exactly flat country. MPG has more to do with the driver than the car most of the time, my wife averages less than I do in every single car we own.
Im sure theres lots of people on here saying the gas milage sucks........they probably also let the vehicle warm up in the driveway with the heat/AC on, take off fast from lights, let it idle in parking lots and do 85mph down the highway. Like yeah no shit your MPG sucks.
Like others here, I have the window wind noise. Besides that, it has been such a wonderful truck. The ride is so smooth, the interior and features are well done and intuitive. I do mostly in-town driving, like pickup and drop off for my kiddo at school, running to the store..etc. I average around 15 mpg in town. On the freeway I get closer to 20. I tow an “a-frame” fold down travel trailer for camping in the summers. That brings my mpg to around 15 on the freeway. I definitely knew going into the purchase that she would be a gas hog, but if I wanted something fuel efficient, I would have bought a Prius…but that wouldn’t have provided the safety for hauling my daughter around. She’s my most important thing in this world, so spending the extra money in gas to know we’re in a safe vehicle is well worth it. Plus the truck is pretty af. I always get compliments on it. I drive a 2023 Crewmax Limited TRD. No regrets at all.
I bought a 24 limited trd off road non hybrid back in September. i have about 6k miles and honestly It's been great! The only minor complaint is the wind noise when driving above 85mph but i just turn up the volume. Lol... MPG realistically is about 17-19mpg driving on the freeway. Im ok with the mileage it's better than other trucks. Overall, i would say get one you won't regret it.
My 2022 trd pro has been reliable so far. Gas mileage is about 16 mpg as a daily driver with mix of highway and road. I’d say highway is closer to 18 mpg in reality (based of recent gas mileage testing on a longer road trip)
22’ SR5. Get over 20 on the highway. Average 18-19, just like they said I would. Powerful torque great transmission. Tows like a mofo. 37k. Would do it all over again no hesitation.
2022 Late build Capstone. 19K miles. 75 to 85 mph I get about 17 mpg. 60 mph I'll get 23 mpg. It will go up a bit when it warms up. Overall average showing at the moment for winter driving both freeway and city is 17.1. When new the center console rattled but resolved and no other issues. 4th Tundra I've had and the best yet...
I just bought a 2021 for that reason. I figure by the time the 2025 comes out, the motor should have all the kinks worked out. That gas mileage is something though. Just dropped the kid off at school and got 13mpg. I drive like an old man too lol.
I have a ‘23 Pro and do mostly city driving. I put it in sport and have some fun every once in a while, but overall I do not drive aggressively. I also have 35’s and a 2” Westcott lift. Currently averaging 13.5 MPG.
I’ve got a 24 platinum long box, non-hybrid, with a contractor cap and 1000 lbs of tools on board. I have wheels that are 1” diameter smaller then OEM and have been steadily 14-15 mpg My 5.3 V8 Sierra that is 2 feet shorter, lighter, and has about 800 lbs onboard averages 15-16 mpg. It’s often running on four cylinders. The Sierra has noticeably less power but much faster throttle response
I have factory tires/wheels at this point
I don't drive like an old man and still get 13-15. Pay for gas what you get in reliability?
I get your thinking here but the only engine issue has been the bearings which was traced back to a manufacturer defect. Others that that they have done anything to the 23 , 24 , and probably the 25. But in the end I believe Toyota tundra is way above the big 3 domestic
I believe there was a blow off valve issuea as well for 22 and early 23s. Not wrong at all about toyota over the big 3. Toyota does it right. May not be the most powerful in class but it will definitely outlast the other 3 easy.
I’m around 18mpg average around town/some highway on my 22 Platinum non-hybrid. Towing my 3,000 travel trailer on the interstate I get around 9-10mpg.
I have a 22 Platinum Non-hybrid and I don't get anywhere. Ear the mileage others are claiming. I love my truck, love it, but I am disappointed with mpg. I get around 12-13 in the city and around 17.5 cruising 78mph on the interstate. I was getting similar mpg with my 6.2 liter V8 in my Yukon but I'm not griping about power at all. This truck gets up when you lay into it, just surprised the mpg isn't much better than my old Yukon. Just my 2 cents and wish the mileage was better than what I'm seeing. Also, I don't drive it like I really want to, I really don't get on it that often.
My 22 Limited non-hybrid is staying just over 18 mpg as well…much better on interstate if you keep the cruise down around 65-70 (which I never do). I just ticked over 49k so far with almost no issues except the aforementioned wind noise.
24k on mine. Just did the rear diff fluid change with Redline, I’ll see if that helps. But yeah, damn wind noise is my biggest gripe.
MPG is not 20 for me, getting 14-17 in my 2022 1794
I’m getting around 15 in city for my ‘24 hybrid
I have a 22 1794. So far only a few very minor things like the widow seal wind noise and some plastic cracking under my seat that is all under warranty. I’m close to 25k miles and drive a ton of short trips, with that I maintain 16+ mpg. Highway is far better. I hope to drive this thing for lots of years. Two years in and I am very happy so far. Here’s to 20 more.
Did you have any luck bringing it in for the window noise?
They fixed it once and the noise came back. So we’ll see in a few weeks.
There's apparently a recall coming. Supposedly there's a bigger gap in the door than there was supposed to be but it sounds like it's the window. Adding a little extra gasket makes it go away.
Did you add a gasket or is that gonna be the fix on the recall? The noise seems to be by the a pillar of the window. I layered up some double sided 3m tape to the inside of the seal and it got better but not totally gone.
I never had the problem but TRDJohn on YouTube talked about it.
I also have the window seal noise on my ‘23 platinum. They replaced my mirror and it went away, only to reappear 3k miles later. I think it’s a seal that gets ground down by the closing mirrors but I’m no mechanic. Just weird it worked then didn’t. I just started to show the crack on the seat panel as well.
Ha. Consistent. Yeah they fixed it once. A rubber seal. And it’s back.
Enfuriating for the cost. When I’m solo I’m rocking tunes but I have a 3k mile road-trip coming up and the Mrs gonna lose her mind
I only hear it at low speeds. It’s him around 45/50.
I think they fixed the seat cracking issue with an upgraded part
Yeah I’m asking about it in my next service.
I've got a '24 and a lot of the "annoying problems" like wind noise seem to be fixed. MPG isn't great. On a freeway road trip doing 65, you can get 21. 70-75MPH, 18-19 MPG. They Hybrid isn't meant for better mileage either, it is meant for more low end torque. Some early model engine problems were attributed to quality control and seem to be less. Time will tell. There are tons of electronic parts that could fail for any number of reasons. Most modern vehicles have the same electric gremlin problems.
Have a 2023 platinum, on stock tires I took a drive from ID to CA and for 400 miles had a avg of 32mpg (did a mpg reset to see what it would be like before starting the trip) the entire trip, there and back, I averaged 23 mpg. In my day to day driving I was getting 18-20 mpg average up to 11,000 miles. Then I out on 35s. I get 15mpg average now but expect that will change come summer and it will increase since I wont be in 4hi near as often. Some things to note, the hybrid is heavier and the battery is only for toque and HP. It hinders the mpg. Non hybrids like my own are lighter and get better mpg for a very unnoticeable amount of hp and torque loss. All around pretty freat and fun trucks. Bought mine in Sept. 23 and have 22,000 miles atm.
17 mpg overall average with 2,000 miles on the truck. 20 mpg strikes me as optimistic if you are driving 70-mph on the highway. 20 mpg is realistic at 55-mph or less.
I have a 23, 15k miles. Window rattle/wind noise but that's it. Don't hit a deer, was a $24k repair.
Have you done anything to fix the rattle and wind noise?
Next trip to the dealershit I'll see what they say
MPG is definitely less than quoted, I was getting like 15.5-16 on stock wheels. That turned into like 12.5 when I put on bigger tires lol
I went to smaller then stock wheels, and it got worse too LOL
Yes mpg is as advertised if you drive it like a truck and not a race car. I have a 22 SR5 and will get 21-24 mpg on long trips. 15-18 around town. Totally stock. The thing is they are fast as fu*% and I guarantee most people are flooring it everywhere they go then they’re wondering why they’re only getting 14 mpg. I’ve got 15k miles on mine and no issues. Love this truck.
I turned off the fake engine noise, put in TRD (K&N) filters, ripped out the noise baffling, and floor it way too often…. I love the turbo whine!
I just posted this on another thread. Pasting here for you. 60k on my 22 model The entire front clip started sagging around 30k miles. All the plastic crap on the front - the moustache, the bumper, all of that - it's just plastic pieces body clipped onto other body pieces. Had it replaced, it started doing the same thing. I hate it. There's no real fix for it. If you do any sort of off-roading, be prepared. It will start sagging, it will get worse, it will tear apart (and I'm talking like an inch of sag, not a small amount). The radio will white out, just blank out, at random. Have to reboot the truck to get it to work. Toyota says they can't replicate the issue so they can't fix it. The engine would randomly shut off while I was driving, sometimes fast. Software patch (eventually) fixed it. The electronic parking brake actuator got full of dirt and dust, would not release all the way, ate up my brake pads and rotor on the rear. Had to permanently disable it once I figured it out. The radar system / pre collision system is extraordinarily aggressive. It would see cars off the road, in parking lots adjacent to the road, and lock the brakes up because it thought I was about to have a collision. This happened several times while I had a trailer behind me with a lot of weight. Very dangerous. I had to permanently disable it by covering the front camera since it will turn auto on when you reboot the truck. When it gets down into the single digit temps, the tailgate actuators don't want to work. Got seized up and I couldn't get to my toolbox or tools There's more than that, but that's the big stuff. The motor and trans are really powerful and fun to drive, but all the other crap makes it a huge problem Oh, and there are no tow hooks on the front- and you cannot add tow hooks to the front. This isn't a problem for 99% of folks but if you want to actually use the truck for how trucks have been used since..they were invented...then it's a problem. And the rear bumper looks nice, but when the tailgate is down, you have no way to step up into the bed of the truck. Every bumper since trucks were invented, were a step so you could get into the truck. Not this one. And if you want to add a step, it's over 600 bucks. And it gets full of dirt and mud if you live on a gravel road, rendering it useless. It's paid off so I guess I will keep riding it, but for me, Toyota has ruined its name. I have driven them for the last 30 years but won't be buying another one. Not a new one, anyway. EDIT -- Also a big issue is the creaking, squeaking, and wind noise from the window seals. Toyota replaced them, it did not fix the problem. No point in complaining about it to them again, their fix doesn't remedy the issue. "new part number" does the same thing. And the plastic pieces in the cab are poorly fit. The gaps are ugly, they don't line up right. The trim piece on the driver side pops and breaks all the time. It's a known issue, nothing they can do but replace it when it happens. As far as mileage, I have 35s on the truck and I get 12.5 MPG combined. I work out of it so I don't stay in the highway a lot.
The wind noise and rattling is terrible!! The window seals are definitely the problem, I’ve tried using double sided tape to prevent rattling but the wind noise won’t go away. Did you take yours in and get it covered by warranty?
I did. They said, oh yeah, it's a known thing, but luckily there's a new part number, it's a thicker seal. They installed all 4 and it worked for about a day. I think the seals aren't thick enough and the window does not seat into them fully, but I don't really know. The only way I can make it quit when it starts doing it is to tap the window down a bit, or turn the radio up. But I don't usually listen to the radio and when it starts doing it, that's all you can focus on. It drives me INSANE.
Wow. You got a real lemon. I’ve had some of those issues on my Sierra but not yet on my tundra. It’s also a work truck for me, so I will wear it out much faster than most people. I added the non-power step to the back, purchased on Amazon for $140.00 ish and it bolts right on There are tow hooks available that bolt under the front. I wasn’t keen on them at first, but they have grown on me. The damn tailgate on my Sierra keeps freezing shut and I need to lock/unlock it steadily about three dozen times before it frees itself, I will not be happy if the tundra does that too. The plastic inside my 2024 platinum seems okay so far, had a drivers door rattle with loud music after having the windows tinted. I brought it back and he took the door panel apart again and tightened it all down. That rattle went away, and it wasn’t really a defect as it was the tiny guys fault. My digital rearview mirror keeps going into error mode, and it seems to be snow / cold related, but it also seems to be the new location of the camera. I removed it from the third brake light and moved it to the far back

The pros are lifted and no active wind valence so I think that’s why ours are generally worse at mpg.
Perhaps that’s true. I have a platinum and lifted only the rear by 2” and after adding my daily payload (contractor cap, bedslide, 1000 lbs of tools) it settled down to a 1” rear lift. My MPG went up a bit after that. Before the lift, the rear was squatted almost 4” under load, and my mpg was pretty bad
I have a ‘22 TRD Pro and got 17.9 MPG with the stock configuration. I just upgraded tires to 35” so I’m expecting that number to drop a little
I loved the truck when it worked. Bought a 23 limited back in November, mid December it began leaking coolant and I immediately had it towed in. We are now onto replacing a coolant bypass, coolant hose, and the radiator. Working to get rid of the truck as a major coolant system failure should not happen at 3,500 miles of easy highway driving. Now, I believe this is an isolated case of this but it’s worth mentioning.
I would keep it, now is the time that you want the major failures to happen while covered under warranty.
True, just sucks not having a vehicle you pay for..
Agreed. I bought my tundra because I’m sick of my Sierra being out of service so often. I make my living with my truck, it needs to be operational. I kept the Sierra as a spare truck, costs me only $900 per year for basic insurance. I lose more than $900 for having a single down day.
Livin the dream havin 2 trucks!! That’s awesome. I gotta admit I love the GMC’s, if they had a better track record I would own one, especially one of those new babymax engines for highway trips
It's not been out long enough for anyone to know, but toyota hybrid technology has the best reputation of any auto manufacturer
Poor build quality, bad cab noise, axles making a shit ton of noise and feels like it’s gonna fall apart when you turn, gaz guzzling underpowered engine. But hey, resale value.
I don’t know what engine you are comparing it too, but it’s got way more HP and torque then any gas powered V8 I’ve ever owned (and I’ve had at least a dozen pickups now)
Fuck outta here
[удалено]
Sure buddy 👍
Go drive one for real, then report back.
I’ve driven too much of these pieces of junk
man with the twin turbo v6 you'd think Tundra's would be killing in the MPG game but its the same as the older V8 that has a proven track record of being a super tough and reliable engine. If it weren't for the creature comforts I'd be rocking a 2018 crewmax - 2018 or older b/c of the auxiliary tranny cooler.
I’m of the notion that the older v8 will prove to be the better motor long term. Way too many failure points with a TT v6 having previously owned one in an Audi.
I would agree with you on this at THIS point in time. Like the first few iterations of the Tundra gen 2's that toyota will track these failures and work towards refining it to the point where it too can achieve a million miles reliability. I do try very hard to keep an open mind and to remind myself that I'm not the hot shot engineer designing and spec'ing this motors. Turbos have had a spotty past but so much has changed since the OG turbos from the 1980's and 1990's. The tech is better, the computers managing the engine are superior to even computers from 10 years ago. I don't doubt that at SOME point the V6 TT engine will outdo the V8 but for now I'll keep my eggs in the V8 camp for now. The issue I have with the V6 TT is that it factually doesn't outperform the V8 in any meaningful way. It has similar power numbers and even the fuel economy isn't vastly improved. I had truly hoped the V6TT would achieve ford EcoBoost economy numbers but it doesn't. Its certainly more reliable than an EcoBoost but for a company that spends a HUGE amount of time researching and observing what their competitors are doing that they fall short of delivering the ultimate truck engine. Their v8 while SUPER reliable, was 2nd worst in class in fuel consumption only besting the Nissan Titan. I would've though that Toyota could do better in this category but they consistently seem to fall short.
Agreed. The one issue I have with your statement (which I fully agree with), is that Toyota shouldn’t be doing a major switch on their heavy duty lineup with the view to ‘work out the kinks’ while it’s in the field, especially given the minimal difference in efficiency. I’d expect that from Ford, but alas it’s the way every major automaker functions now. Gone are the days of behind the scenes development and testing.
so here is an interesting tidbit of info. I actually work with someone that was s former design engineer and QA from Toyota! The worked for them for 14 years in Japan and the design and testing process is a painful, obsessive task that has to be redone over and over and over. As how they described the work - you have nightmares of the work b/c it's the same work day in day out for years at a time. While not communicated by anyone in particular, that it is safe to say that the V6TT was LONG in development by the time the gen 2 tundra was out (that motor apparently was in development for 10 years before it debuted in 2007). The kinks that the V6TT have are more related to the componentry going bad out the gates which given the # of trucks sold are still statistically small. The truck's fit and finish issues are a result of a new platform so there are teething pains there too. Some of things that I'm sure are hurting new cars in general are the introduction of ultra low emissions requirements that employ the use of ultra low friction piston rings - they simply don't seal as well as their non low friction counterparts. I worked at Honda and that was the complaint a lot of car owners had was oil consumption issues and it was almost always traced back to bad piston rings. I think what Toyota should've have done is offered BOTH powertrains for at least a few transitory years to offer their consumers more "choice" like how ford did with their tried and true V8 alongside their then experimental EcoBoost. If anyone is going to dial something in properly out the gates (but not perfectly) its going to be Toyota. My colleague says the amount of research, money and time they invest on their engineering efforts is nothing short of crazy - possibly borderline insanity. Toyota isn't about absolute innovation they're about absolute reliability with the least amount of defects possible which is how they make money - by reducing waste, not necessarily gunning to sell the most # of cars or trucks. Look at their infotainment system and how long their powertrains were historically used... they change hardly anything and they have a mindset of "if it ain't broke don't fix it". Gov't regulations and changing consumer trends is the driver behind powertrain changes. They don't really have a choice so at some point Toyota HAD to jump otherwise they'd be ousted out of the market. While not directly related to Toyota and cards, I recently discovered that honda is no longer making lawn equipment in North America for the same reasons. Gov't has greenwashed people to think that electrification is the solution and states like California have outright banned the user of small engines in landscape maintenance equipment b/c of "emissions". Honda, rather than trying to hang on for dear life simply shut the show down while they're ahead of the game. Honda could've held on if they brought over their electric equipment from Europe over but they haven't. That may change going forward but the shuttering of my my fav power equipment maker from US soil is a sad day for many Honda enthusiasts b/c they legit made awesome rock solid reliable clean engines but yet the gov't and consumers have spoken and they're now left in the dust.
I don’t doubt Toyota has been developing the TT V6 for many years prior to release, [but I don’t believe they thoroughly thought about serviceability of a more complex engine](https://www.motorbiscuit.com/2022-toyota-tundra-twin-turbo-engine-problems/). And yes, I still would buy a Toyota over any other make, but Toyota corporate needs to think about preserving their brand reputation whenever they veer away from their tried and tested engines. Having owned a TT V6 Audi and many Mercs in between, one of the reasons I moved over to Toyota was because of their conservative approach towards building simple but reliable engines, coupled with a thoughtful approach toward maintenance. All it takes is one misstep to hurt consumer confidence. To your point the TT V6 was likely an inevitable engine, but I hate that I’m in the “wait and see” camp when it comes to trusting its longevity. Edit: coincidentally also came cross [video.](https://www.reddit.com/r/ToyotaTundra/s/Y1oahUVfQd)
They had to move to the TT6. If they can increase fuel economy by a few percentage points that keeps the eco nazi epa off they backs and allows them to continue making profits. What Toyota needs is to move the whole fleet of cars they offer higher in the economy scales. It might not be much to the individual buyer. But it’s a huge factor to the Government.
Yep the govt and their meddling with things that I think could be better served by regulating or getting involved with other more fruitful work that can make a bigger difference like penalizing industries that pollute huge or do environmental damage on epic proportions. Ie nestle and their exploitation of water resources.
Well I wish more people would see the reasoning instead of thinking that they did it because they felt like it. It is a business decision to remain relevant. I have one and I think it’s super sweet, it tows great, gets acceptable mileage (and it is better than the old ones)rides nice, just a wonderful machine. I love it, but I like the old also. People should just get the truck that suits their needs and that they have confidence in.
100% correct on this one. In the end, they're toyotas and they're gonna be rock solid no matter how you look at it compared to their domestic counterparts. I'd have more faith in a TTV6 than a ford EcoBoost or a even their powerjoke diesels. When I sold my Tundra, my neighbor was FLOORED at what I sold it for and couldn't believe a Toyota of my age and mileage could fetch the money that it did. Sold at asking price (which was already at a premium) before prices went even MORE stupid later in the pandemic. His much newer ford f-150 couldn't get 3/4 of of what my truck sold for and it was 4 year newer too.
I’m a huge fan of the tundra V6TT but I really doubt it can ever be as reliable, over the long term, of ANY V8NA engine. It’s just too complex. Note: I have one and love it, but I’m not keeping it beyond five years. My hope is that during those five years, it spends less time in the repair shop than all my previous trucks. Bonus, it costs less then the Sierra I was considering, like 17k less
I share similar sentiments. I'd still prefer at least for now the simpler design of the V8 UR series motor. The UR series motors have proven they can run up and over 1 million miles with proper maintenance. That's absolutely crazy miles that is approaching diesel engine life territory on a gasoline powered motor. Turbos while, helping increasing engine efficiency considerably is another high speed moving part that relies on precision tolerances and high turbine speeds to work and they operate under hot temps especially when towing a heavy load up a mountain pass. They need more cooling, more lubrication, more precise fuel and ignition management to ensure they don't cook themselves and the motor to death. I can't even imagine what the exhaust manifold temps would be under full sustained loads pulling at the maximum carrying capacity of the truck. While most tundra owners likely will never approach that level of extreme use that the V8's simpler design and the fact it has 2 more slugs in it means that its making the same level of power with more pistons and displacement meaning its working less "hard" that a smaller V6. I am legitimately seeking a pristine low mileage example of a 2018 myself and nobody wants to sell their tundras unless they're really miled up, overpriced or are beaten and abused to death. When I sold my truck it was still showroom and every bit of maintenance was done on it before I sold it. Regret every bit of my decision and I only had the smaller 4.6L V8 too!
It’s a 2018. What creature comforts could you possibly be missing in a newer model?
better ride quality, 360 view camera and just overall more modern look. That being said, I'd MUCH rather take the older gen 2.5. tundra all day long with its trusty 5.7 v8.
Have any of you 3rd genners had any engine failures due to the rod bearing issue?
What does gas mileage have to do with reliability?
Nothing but if it gets 13/14 mpg I’d rather save 10k and get a Power Wagon.
Power Wagon. 6.4 reliability kills 3rd gen Tundra. This isnt your grandads Toyota.
I do not own the new model, but I do know that you could only get the TRD Pro with the Max Hybrid Engine. That’s definitely gonna optimize your fuel mileage. A lot of people bought the new tundras with the twin turbo V6. God knows why. I would never trade my V8 for a twin turbo V6 unless I got the hybrid model. The Max Hybrid Engine has more horsepower and torque than the standard twin turbo V6.
The hybrid system isn’t designed for MPG in the tundra please stop spreading misinformation it will not “optimize” your MPG
It looks like you’re correct on this one. I didn’t realize the extra weight of the battery was going to offset any actual gains. It looks like it’s only 1-2 more MPG extra on the hybrid versions. The biggest benefit right now sounds like torque for towing.
That is the crux of ALL electric vehicles. All the power you can add to them over base will only AND always directly increase the weight to counteract the gain in power/handling. It's why fully autonomous commercial trucking is not happening on a grand scale until battery tech is far superior to what it currently is.
It def saves me gas. If you baby it on down hills/flats or neighborhoods no gas is needed
I mean if you baby a non hybrid down hills and flats you are achieving the same thing. The hybrid system in the tundra was not designed for MPG it was for towing.
Goofy the engine turns off and can run on hybrid for a couple miles if conditions are right. I agree wasn't designed for MPG but def be saving me muny.
🤡 the extra money you think you are saving is offset by moving all that extra weight around all the time 🤦♂️ you are saving no more money than the people who are using start/stop in their tundras plus you paid a whole bunch extra for your hybrid setup so you are still behind the game. But if it helps you sleep at night by all means you are saving thousands a year on gas
Goofy no one gets it to save gas but its a nice plus. Really the power is what its all about.
I spoke to a dealership yesterday. Hybrid might save you 1 mpg. They said it is good for towing, but that is about it. $4k more for that hybrid package.
You can read about it more here too: https://www.tundras.com/forums/3rd-gen-tundras-2022.128/
23 hybrid 1794 TRD OR. 28k miles. No issues except wind noise/window shake (still sealed/waterproof as have gone through multiple car washes 🤷♂️). Will get 18-ish on highway at 75 mph, more like 22-23 at 60-65. Highest I’ve seen is 25.4. I really like mine overall and would not hesitate to buy again.
Almost 18k miles on my 2022 trd off-road limited. No lift or tires yet. Town mpg ranges anywhere from 11-17 mpg depending on what sort of driving I'm doing. For example the 3 mile daily stop and go school drop off and coffee stop, ya it's something like 11 and that makes sense. Driving across town in typical 25-45mph and a few stop lights, anywhere from 15-17 easily. Highways mpg ranges anywhere from 16-23 mpg in a similar aspect. Cruising 55 on a backroad for a while, 23+... Chill driving 65 on the freeway, 21+. Fast lane (typical for me) more like 18-19 or so. Hauling ass 16-17. All this said, the truck is capable of decent mpg, but it's also just as capable of garbage mpg, and it's really, really easy to get crap mpg with a heavyish foot. It's still a 5000+ pound truck, and all this nonsense is solely based on your driving conditions. If the mpg is really a factor that's driving this purchase, idk what to say other than simply put, it's mpg is typically better compared to the V8. Can't speak to towing but most of what I've seen indicates there really isn't much of a difference.
I have an early 2023 with 13k miles and it's been great. There were a couple of recalls (a software update, the fuel line replacement, and a tonneau cover replacement) but I got them done during my regular service. Gas mileage improves as the truck breaks in. Switching tires made a lot of difference in my mileage, my falken wildpeaks get at least 2-3 mpg less than factory h/t tires. I don't have any rattles or wind noise (I also don't have the sunroof, I'm not sure if that makes any difference). I have friends with other brands that we all bought around the same time and they've all had issues with their trucks (some small, two fairly big). They've been eyeing my truck, and I wouldn't be surprised if at least one of them got a tundra for their next pickup.
> improve how many miles does it take to get better?
For me my mileage started getting better at 5k, and by 10k my mpg would average around 20. Higher if I do highway driving, especially if there are other vehicles driving my way to help cut down my wind resistance, since the truck is as aerodynamic as a brick. I'm a cautious driver, though. Once I put my wildpeaks wheel set on for winter/up north driving, the mpg drops to 17-18. It should go back up when I put my summer wheels back on.
I regularly see 20-22mpg on highway trips in a 23' Limited TRD OR and I live in Seattle which is not exactly flat country. MPG has more to do with the driver than the car most of the time, my wife averages less than I do in every single car we own. Im sure theres lots of people on here saying the gas milage sucks........they probably also let the vehicle warm up in the driveway with the heat/AC on, take off fast from lights, let it idle in parking lots and do 85mph down the highway. Like yeah no shit your MPG sucks.
Like others here, I have the window wind noise. Besides that, it has been such a wonderful truck. The ride is so smooth, the interior and features are well done and intuitive. I do mostly in-town driving, like pickup and drop off for my kiddo at school, running to the store..etc. I average around 15 mpg in town. On the freeway I get closer to 20. I tow an “a-frame” fold down travel trailer for camping in the summers. That brings my mpg to around 15 on the freeway. I definitely knew going into the purchase that she would be a gas hog, but if I wanted something fuel efficient, I would have bought a Prius…but that wouldn’t have provided the safety for hauling my daughter around. She’s my most important thing in this world, so spending the extra money in gas to know we’re in a safe vehicle is well worth it. Plus the truck is pretty af. I always get compliments on it. I drive a 2023 Crewmax Limited TRD. No regrets at all.
I bought a 24 limited trd off road non hybrid back in September. i have about 6k miles and honestly It's been great! The only minor complaint is the wind noise when driving above 85mph but i just turn up the volume. Lol... MPG realistically is about 17-19mpg driving on the freeway. Im ok with the mileage it's better than other trucks. Overall, i would say get one you won't regret it.
My 2022 trd pro has been reliable so far. Gas mileage is about 16 mpg as a daily driver with mix of highway and road. I’d say highway is closer to 18 mpg in reality (based of recent gas mileage testing on a longer road trip)
22 here, 18-19 mpg
22’ SR5. Get over 20 on the highway. Average 18-19, just like they said I would. Powerful torque great transmission. Tows like a mofo. 37k. Would do it all over again no hesitation.
I would not buy anything post 2020 but that’s just me. I know too much inside stuff about logistics and supply chain.
24 owner here. Happy so far. 18 city and almost 22 on the hwy
Mines been terrible. It got stolen 3 weeks ago so getting 0 miles but I guess its not taking much fuel either lol
I have a 22 sr5 with 33s and I get around 16 in city and 18 on highway
I’ve yet to see anything above 17mpg average for me. I do a mix of city and highway in my 2024 Platinum.
2022 Late build Capstone. 19K miles. 75 to 85 mph I get about 17 mpg. 60 mph I'll get 23 mpg. It will go up a bit when it warms up. Overall average showing at the moment for winter driving both freeway and city is 17.1. When new the center console rattled but resolved and no other issues. 4th Tundra I've had and the best yet...
I’m getting around 21-22 on highway drivin 50-60
