As someone who went from a eco-boost V6 turbo to a tundra V-8 I can tell you the driving experience was far superior in the tundra. Not only that the towing mpg was 2.3 mpg per gallon better in the tundra. Once those turbo start spinning it’s like Stacey Abrams at the Buffet line good luck there’s nothing left.

You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. I mean no idea. Turbos are used on trains, planes, diesels, semis, ships. A turbo charger is used, because you can get far Superior power , economy out of a motor. They do it all while using free flowing exhaust usually. Scotty is old school mindset, but is flat out wrong on many things. The Toyota has problems, because it is a brand new design. It will take a few years. Buy a Ford 2.7 or 3.5. They torture tested the crap out of those motors. They are damn good motors, especially the 2.7.

A 2022 Tundra with the twin turbo motor now, will not last as long as the previous tundra's, will be more maintenance and higher maintenance costs.

Hwy I could believe, but that’s strange. Both with 10speeds? I average 21-24Hwy depending on load and speed. At 63mph my truck runs about 13,500RPM. That’s below idle in many trucks. 2018 crew cab f150 3.5 v6. Always drive 8 over. Unfortunately I rarely see the Hwy longer than 7 minutes. My 3.5 ecoboost averages about what the 5.0 gets Hwy. I average between 19.1-21.1 in bluff county WI, and haul wood every other week. My longest drive is about 10-15 miles over bluffs one way. No 5.0 is averaging that in such conditions. Not even empty driving like a grandma. From 2018-present Ford has ironed out their v6 ecoboost problems(adding cam chain guides and port intake injection). Unfortunately they still have an internal water pump. So at least by 150k I will require around $3000 hopefully…preventative…maintenance done. Meanwhile, since 2018-? the 5.0 has had cylinder wall lining problems. Ford seems to ruin or eliminate all their reliable engines. Surely the four cylinder ecoboost is a nightmare. As well first gen v6, even cam chain and/or intake build up until 2017. Since 2018 the debate between the Ford v6 and v8 is a toss up. But the debate between the v6 ecoboost(and 5.0) vs the tundra v8 is a no brainer, despite what Scotty says. I’ve done the math. By 150,000 miles an ecoboost will have saved over $12,000 in fuel costs, and that was before these high prices. Putting that number today closer to $18,000. That covers an entire drivetrain replacement. Meanwhile the F150 handles substantially heavier loads, puts out far more power with far better MPG, better handling, more room, better ride. And now that Toyota is dropping the v8, they will have nothing to brag about.
@skrsys

The problem with the ecoboost is people tend to enjoy pushing the gas pedal down and feeling the turbos work. That drops the mileage significantly. If you’re easy on the pedal and drive like you would the 5.0, you’ll get better mileage.

I'm a huge fan of the Ford 5.0 Coyote motor, but I ended up buying an F150 with 3.5 ecoboost. I have not been disappointed about a single thing. It has outperformed any previous F150 that I've owned in both power and fuel economy by a considerable margin. It even has outperformed my brothers F150(same year model) that has the 5.0 Coyote. Both stock of course. I do however like the fact that the Coyote has way more potential with tuners and power adders, that will make it leave the 3.5 ecoboost in its dust. And that Coyote sounds fantastic. I don't think it's a bad choice going with either one of these engines. The Coyote probably wins in the maintenance cost long term, because I've been told there are certain maintenance costs, and procedures required for the 3.5. Through its life the Coyote won't have.

My 5.7 Tundra has 172k miles and runs beautifully. No issues. I plan on keeping it for as long as I can.
Here is the problem. My brother-in-law has a 2008 Tundra with a V8. Six years ago he helped us pick up a new washer and dryer. That is the only time I have ever seen him use his Tundra as a truck. The rest of the time it serves as a four door passenger vehicle. His Tundra averages 12 mpg so at today's prices a fillup costs $110 to go only 300 miles. That really has killed its practicality for what he uses it for. It will last forever but it is too expensive to drive. I have a station wagon that averages 47 mpg around town and 55 when traveling. I can fillup for under $60 and go 600 miles. But I decided I needed a pickup truck too and got a used Toyota T100 three years ago. I only use it when I need a truck, but it averages 20 mpg. Mr. Kilmer says it is under powered with the Toyota 3.4 six cylinder engine. And I will admit it isn't fast, but it also hasn't been obsoleted due to gas prices.
Just like Ford technicians say get the 5.0 not the eco boost!
It will cost $5k per turbo when they need to be replaced. Keep that in mind.

I bought a used 2016 Tundra, with the 5.7 v8. It had 100,000 miles on it. Just broke in for a Toyota. I plan on keeping it indefinitely
Finally we agree on something lol. It is sad Toyota did the Tundra dirty. I don’t care how snappy an efficient the v6 turbo charged may be… that big Tundra needs that v8 back

If there’s one thing we know about Toyota is they will stand by their products my 2012 Tacoma had an issue with the secondary air injection pumps which can get costly but luckily was covered through a extended warranty recall program. 10 year old truck and $1000 + bill completely covered by Toyota no questions with over 160,000 miles. Don’t hesitate to buy the new truck any issues will be covered don’t worry
According To Ben Hardy He Say’s The New Tundra is The Best Version Of The Tundra He Has No Clue What He’s Talking About !
You hear this Ram guys? The secound gen tundras are far superior to your trucks. Whoncares you have a updated interior
From what I could find online these new twin turbo v6s are very solid. First introduced in the Lexus ls500 I believe. There’s only been like 40 something tundras affected from turbo failure.. doesn’t mean they’re unreliable
They changed the 5.7 V8 to a new design in 2022, those engines aren't lasting over 50k. They're blowing up & they're 30k plus to replace. The older ones were 8-9k to replace. LMFAO
Amen ! I just traded my ‘17 Tundra on a ‘21 TRD Pro. Stoked to get the last of the V8 Tundras. The V6 TT doesn’t appeal to me at all.

Most ford owners that I have heard from say the 3.5 hauls better than the 5.0. More low rpm torque.
And that is why I scrambled to get a 2022 Tacoma before the redesign. I dont want twin turbos that can not last 100k miles. Toyota is gonna shoot itself in the foot with these recent decisions, moving assembly to Mexico and reducing engine sizes in trucks. Lots of videos out there showing brand new Tacoma's where the doors scratch the fender when opened and the hoods not aligning properly. Thank goodness I had none of those issues.
Just cracked over 200k on my 5.7v8 tundra. Has not broken down once.. I’m about ready for a new truck but probably looking at other options
I was looking into it as well. No go for myself.
Honda makes their turbo wheel (in exhaust stream) out of Inconel. Honda does it right. Inconel has a high nickel content
The worst thing about the Toyota Tundra is the steering wheel there's nowhere on the bottom half of the wheel to put your hands comfortably. and for that reason alone I'm out
So true, now the Tundra is a hybrid also... I was shopping for the new Tundra but no V8, no deal.
Damn dude Scotty is so right. Knew there was something off with the new one just by seeing it
Saw one take off from a light the other day and it was crazy to see something that big move so quickly. The problem is the trucks like the F150 Ecoboost are worrying Toyota about their fullsize being obsolete. The full-size American truck market is already a tough one to compete in, and literally being left in the dust will damage sales. But that’s taking away the simplicity and reliability we love Toyota for, and replacing it with yet another vehicle that needs to needlessly have the ability to rapidly accelerate to the passing lane, where it’ll camp at exactly the speed limit. What is the obsession with quick average cars?

Toyota would not sabotage their own vehicles. Blame the EPA and Democrats, NOT Toyota.
Mostly right. The V6 is turbo so it should have plenty of low end torque to get off the line. It won’t be underpowered. But the gas mileage is not likely to be any better. And the V8 will be more reliable
Scotty predicted the downfall of Toyota's new TT V6 2 years ago. 2 days ago, Toyota just announced the massive recall on the new Tundras and LX600 and nobody knows how they will handle the recall.
Still hauling with my ‘08 Tundra. Still love it!
Man's just mad because he got stuck with a Tacoma. I have a 22 Tundra and absolutely love it.
I have had the same 2004 Tundra that my dad bought new. It still runs like it did at 100,000 miles at 205,000 miles.
Never thought I’d hear you tell someone not to buy a Toyota 😂
Yes the waste gate valve under no circumstances buy one. Remember the added boost pressure will prematurely wear out the engine. Theirs not a fix. Or parts to replace the defective valves.
This video aged well.
I think we all agree that Toyota make a big mistake taking the 5.7 out of the market for a twin turbo V6, big mistake that Toyota did they're going to regret this!!
Toyota needs to listen to
