Toyota Tundra

[MaC-N54-E82]

Upgrading my winter daily this weekend. Anyone alse on the forum rocking a BMW & Tundra combo? First foray into truck ownership after owning too many SUVs to count. In addition to being a BMW homer I’m also partial to Toyota so it was an easy decision. Also seems to be a very capable and highly modifiable platform. I would appreciate any thoughts or feedback from fellow Tundra owners.

I got a previous generation, the new ones look great. Has Toyota fixed/recalled your 3.4L V6 yet?

Yes, 2024 model year and beyond are not part of the recall and include a confirmed fix. 👍🏻

Seen a few 24s blow up already. It's the only thing that has kept my buddy from buying one. He wants one real bad but keeps seeing new 24s blowing up.

Toyota really screwed up with that motor, I dunno that they can repair that black eye. They should just bring back the 5.7L at this point.

Thanks for heads up. Very glad I passed on the 2024 on 35s given your input. If the 2025 is not bulletproof one thing I know is Toyota will make it right. My 1987 FJ60 Land Cruiser still runs line a Swiss watch at 200,000 miles.

I would have loved to see some toyota innovation and make a Tundra Prime, imagine the capabilties, geez, instead they put a broke ass motor in the truck. Pffft.

Not a tundra but a tacoma. Bought it to haul big items, trash, and snow runs.

Last time I was in Phoenix I totally killed a Chevy Equinox trying to go up to Payson...had to get it towed all the way back into Phoenix. Got a 4-runner replacement. Lots of unacceptably old ergonomic stuff in there that just didn't work great...but major respect to the 4.0 engine and drivetrain. It may not be a powerhouse...but it will work through the worst conditions and not let you down.

Had a 2016 Tundra Platinum (in Barcelona red) to go along with my M's and loved it to death. Comfy, awesome seats, great utility, fold up rear seats are cool, roll down rear glass is even more amazing.

Sold it during covid for more than I paid for it. Don't regret it because I didn't really use it as a truck all that often and went completely opposite and DDed an F87 Comp for a bit.

Took delivery on Sunday and already started down the upgrade rabbit hole. 34” KO3 tires go on this Friday along with sliders and a trifold tonneau. So far I’m really enjoying it.
