All Toyota needed to do was keep the 6 cylinder and change the 6 speed slush box to an 8 speed or 10 speed transmission. The mileage and drivability quirks is because of the 6 speed transmission.

I drove a a 1995 Ford ranger with a 4 l 6 cylinder engine for 18 years. It got 18 mi to the gallon and had plenty of torque and power and I never had any trouble with it until the automatic transmission started to go. You can buy a truck with a four-cylinder engine and it will get you around town just fine, but never expect that you're going to be pulling things with it. Everyone I've ever known who had a turbocharged engine has had trouble, and the engines never seem to last as the standard 6 and 8 cylinders.

This just reinforces my decision to get a 2021 Tundra with the 5.7 V8. I can get 20 mpg on the highway and 13-15 city and have plenty of power to tow an RV. 25,000 miles on it and no problems.

Yeah they started with four cylinder engines back in the day, however those trucks were much smaller and lighter and even then, the power was lacking.

I bought an older Hyundai Santa Fe with what I think is a good 4WD system. It's normally in front wheel drive until it senses a wheel spinning then it automatically energizes a clutch that sits in front of the rear differential. No buttons to push, it just does it. Don't even notice when it's doing it in snow. I only notice it when taking off on wet pavement, then I get the rear wheel drive thump when the front wheels spin (then it just goes). You can't sit there and spin the wheels with that traction control, you can hold the pedal to the floor and the engine only goes as fast as it takes to keep the wheels from spinning.

I have my 2018 sequoia SR5 with the 5.7 V8 and man if you put it in tow mode, that thing is a rocket. The comfort and space is great.

The same on the freeway. Driving like they are on the racetrack. Then they complain about gas prices.

Just bought a 2023 Tacoma TRD Sport last week. Had no idea that this was the last year they are doing the 6 cylinder. Glad I got one before they are gone.

He is spot on. V6 turbos in the Tundra are already blowing. Keeping my V6 4runner.

Both guys laughing at 10:45 is beyond priceless. The horse picture was icing on the cake.

Love my 23 Frontier!!

Got a 2022 TRD Off Road 4x4 V6. Super happy about it. If they don’t have a V6 by the time I get a new one, I’ll find a dealer that does

I saw a Toyota mechanic doing a one year review with his new Tundra on KZread. What stood out to me was when he said when towing his boat, the new V6 twin turbo Tundra got worse MPG than his old V8 Tundra did. He went on to say that when towing, the turbos were engaged the whole time. I took that as not good. Especially for people who tow a lot or carry large payloads. The more those turbos are having to run, the more wear and tear will be put on them leading to turbo failures and high dollar repairs. Toyota’s best days may be behind them.

Not many people with toyota's work them or tow kind of like ridgeline owners just ease around to the mall and pick up groceries. If your going to be towing or working your truck don't get a Toyota.

The Frontier has been waiting a long time for that crown 👑 😊

The turbocharged engines used in modern pickups have much more low end torque then the larger displacement n/a engines. Scotty has it backwards when he says the new turbo 4 will need to spin at much higher rpm’s to tow. The 3.5 V6 in the Tacoma is most certainly not known for being a good engine for towing. I agree that they possibly will not be as reliable though, but at this point, that is only speculation.

I have to agree. my dad ALWAYS buys Tacoma's. he is always complaining about how the 3.5L tows compared to his previous Tacoma with the 4L.

Personally, I think Toyota took a very long time to get rid of that V6 and a small truck, I got tons of friends that have the Tacoma, and none of them used it to carry heavy stuff. They just wanna have it because it’s reliable, they don’t really need that much power, the tundra, I agree, they should’ve stick with the V8, but the Ford F150 has a pretty good reliable, 3.53l twin turbo Toyota wheel two believe me

Tell your son to look at his battery connection, I can see it’s doing the same thing mine did , lots of corrosion. 8$ felt pad/grease kit from the part store fixed it. Love the videos man, thanks

I just got a 2023 Tacoma Sport, I love it! It's not a drsg racer without a tune, but it gets the job done, just like my 04 Colorado did for me with the 5cyl. :-)

I will be holding on to my V6 TRD off road 6 speed stick.

This whole video is exactly why I bought a 2023 v6 Tacoma. Couldn’t be happier with it

Scotty, we always get the facts from you. Thanks 😊

Just bought a 2023 Tacoma and I’m in love

Have you seen Ram's new Ramcharger? 6 cylinder engine not attached to a transmission. It's a generator that runs two electric motors with a much smaller battery than an EV. Has huge horsepower and torque. I've always looked elsewhere because of that company's transmission issues. But this may be a game changer as far as electric vehicles go. Up to 690 miles of range. Could see smaller vehicles with smaller engines working as generators. Could eliminate high gas prices as an issue.

Yes, the 4th Gen Tacoma's have some nice improvements (e.g., sitting position, info systems, seats, etc.) However, not buying 4 cyl turbo motor truck. I keeping my 2021 TRD Tacoma V6 2/manual. I'll need to go out and give my Tacoma a big hug as we are going be together for a long time.

My 2003 explorer crapped out again this year and the silver 2023 4x4 v6 Tacoma was my replacement of choice. So far no big complaints other than the rough shifting transmission but that’s Tacoma for ya. Simple NA V6 engine, old school parking break and 23/24MPG in town? I’m not complaining!

I have a white 2022 TRD Pro with 3000 miles. Excellent power and presence.

This video didn't age well... New turbo 4 cylinder makes 50ft lbs more torque and it makes that peak torque at less than 2k rpm. MUCH better than the old V6...

But logical thinking doesn’t get any views, so it’s fear mongering a truck none of these complainers have driven or have really looked into the engine for themselves😂

2:05. You. Seem to be confused. The current gen with the 2GR-FKS is kinda weak on torque and has to be revved all the way out to make any power. The new 4cyl makes its torque at a very low rpm because of turbo charging. Not saying it’s reliable, just that you have an invalid point.

Yeah, I completely agree. I feel like within the next two or three years they’re probably going to introduce a V-6 because there’s no way they’re going to keep their sales up with just a bunch of four cylinders. A lot of people don’t want that and yeah, like you said a smaller engine in the same size truck is not gonna last as long. And how the hell does he get 30 mpg on the highway I barely get 20 in my 23 tacoma

The best I have ever gotten in my ‘21 Off Road long bed on the highway is just under 25mpg. It’s 100% stock.

Test drove the twin turbo and a used 5.7 today. Honestly the new twin turbo drives wayyy better. Near zero lag and tight steering. Smooth shifts and the interior is 100% better. Can't say anything about long-term or what it is like pulling a boat out a lake but the twin turbo had plenty of power on the road.

Got the Tacoma V6. Maintenance is my only headache… which I enjoy 100%!

Good video Scot . If you looking for a truck you want power and you really need (CC or L the same ) if you try to replace that with a turbo you better do it right or otherwise your loosing the main concept of a truck . POWER . Very interesting video

🚫 Totally agree. No replacement for displacement ! Big trucks big V-8 motors

The 3rd gen Atkinson has so many complaints of low end torque. New Tacoma will have plenty of low end grunt. I’m selling my 2.7 supercharged 2nd gen and buying a 4th gen. I disagree with Scotty on longevity. The electric motor will take strain off the engine so as with the Tundra we all have to wait on reliability judgement.
