My biggest problem with the new Tundra is I don't have one in my garage 🤨😁

That with the turning radius is really mind-boggling. TNGA-F is a global platform meaning it needs to perform in places with tiny roads. That was a massive oversight by Toyota.

Best comment. The TNGA platform that Toyota uses reduced space across the board because of the global necessity that Toyota used.

I have the 2022 SR5 it's one awesome truck. I use regular fuel and it moves as fast as I want it to go. I gave my son my 2017 Tundra TRD4X4 it too is a great truck but loved gasoline, only issue with that truck. My 2022 rides so much better than the 2017, with that said the 2017 was built for off road my 2022 isn't it is a 4x4. It just seemed to me you were looking for issues that make little to no difference. The 2022 doesn't get Primus gas numbers, but it gets far better than the 2017. Just my thoughts, have a great week ahead.

I’ll pass on the direction injection, but a 3.5L diesel engine would have been great for me.

I have a 2022 SR5 2x2 Crewmax. The only issue you describe here that could be something you could claim you didn't realize or know after a walk around and a test drive is the power using lower octane fuel. I get more power than I need from my engine on 87 octane gas. It might be better with higher octane but I don't need higher performance than I'm getting and one of the big pluses to me is the fact that I get an average of 21 MPG in this truck around town which saves me money on gas. I don't want to lose that advantage by paying the higher price for higher octane if I don't need it. All the other "issues" you describe would be obvious when you walk around the truck and take it for a test drive. So if they are issues for you, obviously, it's not the truck for you! But I love mine!

Yea I own a 22 Tundra and I think a lot of this is preference. When I bought my tundra I’m 6’1 with the seat raised a bit and have enough headroom to where it’s a non factor. The turning radius sucks because of the new platform they designed on the truck. The 3 inches of the bumper sticking out is a non factor when you could get a bed step for like 70 bucks. I thought you were gonna talk about things that a lot of people use in their daily life. Plus let’s be real a majority of people spending 60k+ on their truck isn’t going to take in the woods, or work out of it either. They are going to be daily driven family style trucks. The new trucks are above and beyond the previous in all aspects aside from the nitpicks you listed in the video. I never would’ve bought a tundra if it didn’t have the amount of features and equipment the new ones have.

You guys sound like a bunch of women complaining about their purse pockets. When the first gen T100 came out, great truck but just not for everybody. You spoiled folks can never be satisfied. "I want everything I had and tons more." So typical. I'm still embracing the new powertrain and functional design for it. Ask Ford, they can never satisfy their customers completely either. If toyota still gives you QDR, and that's good for today's time, plus unmatched resale value, plus fuel economy matched with their competitors, then I think their short falls are as bad as others. Remember, they make incremental changes over time to make their trucks better. And they've always been behind the big three cosmetically and functionality, but hold their own. I can excuse their short comings like ford customers do. I'm sure they are aware what people think and like the T100, I don't believe they are trying to steal the truck market but give you a tool you can depend on.

Great points. I don't like the worst break over and approach and departure angles. You have to spec SR5 to get 18 inch wheels.

The truck market has changed a lot since 2007, and they think they are catering to Truck buyers with the new redesign. They forgot that people buy Tundras because it is a reliable dinosaur that was still relatively cheaper than the competition. A top trim platinum/trdpro 2021 Tundra is about $54k, which is like a mid-level Ram Laramie/F150 XLT. This truck is 3-4 yrs late, and removed features that made it special, like a big 38-gal fuel tank, large 4.30 rear axle, excellent turn radius, bulletproof drivetrain, and looks that was mean, but modest. Toyota assumes that Truck buyers are similar to regular car/suv buyers. They are successful in those markets because the buyers see the vehicle mostly as transportation and luxury is a bonus, but most Truck buyers see their vehicle as a mobile functional tool

You hit the nail on the head. I’m a Toyota guy, own a 2016 Avalon and 1980 FJ40. I was seriously considering a new Tundra as a tow vehicle for my 40 but I’m disappointed in the Tundra due to a car-like payload rating, lack of flat floor in the back, no bed access, no tow hooks, no V8, and interesting styling decisions. The Tundra might reach its tow capacity without exceeding its payload with a 120lb driver, no cargo, and a bed full of helium. I just ordered a new F250 Tremor with the 7.3L V8.

We just came out of a pandemic and parts are still in short supply, so are decent engineers worth their weight in gold. Everyone should stop buying anything, car or truck, until these issues can be resolved and things come back to normal, if you go to a supermarket you notice how crappy everything is being packaged? I've seen cereal boxes with the cardboard tabs glued on crooked, not by a little bit, and on a number of kinds of packaging. There's a rush to put out products in the face of high demand and low workers, car manufacturers are no different, all businesses have to make a profit, if they can't put out product they'll have to shut down.

I've gone form a second gen '19 to the '22 and I agree with a couple of the negatives, especially the loss of 1.5" of the rear seat leg room. What easily carried 4 adult males (or 3 good size kids in the back) is now very cramped for 4 adult males (or at least the two suckers in the back). The other issue is the lack of the step into the bed. Yes, even though I would use my rims/tires, it was nice to have that step. I guess I'll have to dole out a few hundred more for the power step. That should have been standard. Haven't noticed the steering radius being an issue, nor the sluggishness (I don't think it exists if you run 87 or better). The load it can cary has gone up by 200+#'s, so you should correct that error in the video. It also tows more. The bed is smaller, but I doubt I'll notice the difference. The only time I would have an issue is with the height. There were a couple times I was right at the top with a bulky item when I had the Gator Trax closed, but I went with a folding tonneau this time. There are a lot of positives though and overall I find it a better overall truck. Is it worth the $$? Probably not, but my '19 was totaled by a tree and I needed a new truck. Didn't even consider the others same in class. I've had a few Toyota trucks over the years and never had a problem. Worst issue was a vibration from my windshield when doing over 75 mph in my '07 Tacoma.

It just got me to the office 5 days a week and tow a boat on some weekends, haul some construction materials from Menards, etc. We traded it for a new 2016 Sequoia platinum as we added another baby to our family. So I drove a Honda Accord to work. There’s a part of me that still misses my truck so I’ve been intrigued by what people are seeing in the third gen. and we’ll see, might spring for the new tundra after a test drive, and if it’s not a good fit, I’ll likely get a sport sedan like a Lexus IS500 to daily.

All good points. We were looking at the new 22 Tundra but were disappointed with the payload capacity. We had owned (3) previous model year tundras and really liked the size and relatability. We bumped up to a 1 ton diesel for a tow vehicle and do not have to be concerned about cargo capacity. You made solid points on what Toyota did to cheapen the build on new Tundra. The engineers had (5) years to get it right and sadly missed it by a long country mile. Wishing it was different, but we said good bye to Toyota.

87 Octane per the owner’s manual page 547 btw. Most people have this mistaken belief turbo engines require premium fuel. Ford EcoBoost engines get the same comments. I’ve owned both and the 2022 is better than the 5.7L off the line. It doesn’t sound like it is which I think it causing the confusion. The bed size is an interesting thought.

Interesting insights! One thing I did for my Tacoma 2019 was install the back bed pedal so I could get in the bed much easier. I’m surprised they didn’t just build in a step for people? Other pickup makers about done this.

I don't like that the tailpipe comes out the drivers side and they use fake engine noise piped in. The fender flares don't even cover the wheel wells and does not provide good protection. They don't look right to me. The front and back bumpers are made from molded plastic like cars and the least tiny bump will destroy them. This truck I feel is more car like and is made for people who don't really use a truck much as a truck. Just some of my thoughts I was hoping for better. This truck lies between the Honda pickup and the current Tundra.

That is an excellent comment with great points. I can't disagree thank you for contributing.

All those issues that you mentioned are getting fixed now and added on the 2023. I wish Toyota would have kept that as an option 5.7, or at least the 5.0 form the Lexus. Add that Hybrid system to improve the fuel economy. if I’m 6’4 and can seat behind me on the 2020 Extended cab, I tried the same on the 2022 and I couldn’t. I feel that Toyota did that on purpose to get people buy the Crew cab. That rear bumper is going to change quickly, they are getting a lot of negative feedback, make the less resistant to small accidents. In the old Tundra the bumper was modular.

Love the things you covered. Turning radius is a big one and the tow hooks up front. Looks like you should just keep your truck.. everyone else is willing to compromise, mostly due to the fact Tundras in recent years were sold more as a "daily driver truck" as opposed to for actual utilization. The worst thing Toyota is doing is their stupid subscription for different features in the infotainment, like Remote start and navigation. huge disappointment. PS yes you can tune the ECU to be better compatible to different Fuels.

Look at the GMC AT4, and build that truck with your quality. It sis functional, has steps in the bumper, much wider bed, tow hooks, great factory tires, factory lift.

The funny thing is the big 3 didnt start following the J2807 ratings until 2018 .Manufacturers can set their tow ratings to whatever they want.The Tundra could easily tow 12,000lbs or more on their previous generation Tundra.

Bought 5 new Tundras and drove Tundras for over a decade. I bought an AT4 Sierra with the 6.2 in late 2020 because Toyota pushed back the refresh again. This new model is a huge disappointment. The big screen is trying to distract from the shortcomings. You are better off buying a Ford EcoBoost if you want the 3.5 TT.

@@edgarmartinez1512 I do. I do not think it will be as reliable as a 2021 and earlier Tundra, but it has far more power, gets better mileage, and is nicer inside.

@@cstgx Right there with you. The GMC is so much nicer. I get an extended warranty on everything so I'm not worried. Love the GMC. I feel like I'm no longer stuck in the 80s.

I know someone at work who bought one of these , not seen him driving lately, Yes the Dealership is waiting for Parts to Change both Turbos, they gave him a 2018 Camry Loaner vehicle, The Truck Lost power on the way to Lake Tahoe, Not a Happy Camper, He is thinking about Lemon Law now

Had a '00 4Runner. Hated the new style, but after several changes it looks good now. Same with Tundra. Hate the new style, but it will improve as they adjust it....hopefully.

Unbelievable that there is no step into the bed of the truck.

Under powered V6 engine, that needs twin turbos to get enough power….. a lot of buyers will have trouble with their lack of religious oil changes…re: turbo killer

Well at least you can get the long bed in a crewcab configuration. To me that's a big plus.

My dad is looking for a second truck for his company. His 2020 Tundra has been flawless so far. But this 2022 looks like a disappointment from all directions. Will be looking at a Nissan Titan or a diesel/hemi-V8 Ram 1500 instead. Thank you for the video.

Thank you for watching

Toyota flopped with this truck. Co worker bought one and he is very unhappy, mostly with the transmission shifting terrible. Dealer said their was nothing they could do. And the rear window leaks. He is going to try to trade it on a Chevy or Ford.

If I had a car company, my trucks would come with the slogan: "To serve purpose". And that is to be a truck, not a pavement princess.

Hope it continues to serve you well.

My 2018 Tundra is boring, but it hasn’t had one single issue at all in 40,000 miles, not one. I actually complain that it need a tail gator step like that of a ford, so this 2022 will totally suck for me. I’m a hunting outfitter so you can just imagine how often I have to get into and out of the bed, I can’t just jump out with these old rebuilt knees. I did buy a slider, it helped a lot, but it did cut down on the amount of cargo I can take. Even my 2018 step bumper is far too dangerous when wet and forget about it if it’s icy. I feel they missed the mark.

On the turning radius my 2016 Limited is way better than my 2005 Tundra Limited . Why would Toyota make it worse is hard to figure out.🤔

Seen my first one the other day and first impression was not good. Everything just feels and looks cheap. The shifter itself moves around like a manual, panels around the truck at loose. Ride quality even with coils isn’t on par with ram (haven’t been able to drive a 4x4 with bilstein yet

was planning to buy the new Toyota tundra, but I just traded for a gmc sierra denali 6.2 now I'm getting more mpg and definitely feel the extra power of the 6.2 10 spd.
