    Some newer super white/ pearl white Tundras are experiencing paint quality issues and getting "corrected" by Toyota under warranty.

    Welcome, hopefully you didn't buy a white one, as I doubt the 1794 come in white LOL! Anyways, yeah there's some "problems" - probably just not as many. Yes, Toyota is NOT PROBLEM free, I can guarantee you that. My trucks' been at the shop couple times for QC issues that shouldn't have existed on a TOYOTA esp with their QC standards (probably failed QA first before QC - I know I work in the QA world). The same QC process as what Lexus uses - supposedly.

    Welcome from Southern California. I gave up on Fords back in 1993. I tried, but I didn't like the lack of quality and reliability of the Ford I bought.

    Thanks everyone appreciate it. I’m in San Antonio, bought it right down the road from the Tundra plant. I def like this motor so far, zero turbo lag the power is instant. Figuring out the Entune and how to work all the stuff. I LOVE this truck so far!!!!

    Ford is the reason my last 3 trucks have been Toyotas. Specifically my 2001 5.4. Biggest piece of crap ever made. I can understand a Monday truck or 2 but that truck was poorly engineered from the roof panel to the motor to the suspension.

    Did you replace your Ford's BRAKES with OEM or aftermarket?

    I did Goodyear’s brakes and rotors, after the 3rd set in like 6 months (warranty) I took it to Ford and had OEM put on. That solved everything. Ford seems to to do best with OEM everything.

    I hear ya I had an 05 Expedition with the 5.4. It ate coils like no tomorrow, and I was constantly fixing stuff on that vehicle. Motor finally failed at 160K. 5.4 was the crappiest motor I’ve ever owned.

    Hopefully the Tundra works out better than the F-150. I have 220k on mine with a supercharger and the only issue I've ever had is the starter went out at 210k.

    Well add me to the list . Had numerous Toyota’s before Tundra & Tacoma and don’t forget the Deluxe. Back in 2015 someone hit my Tacoma BAD . Had a rental (F150) liked it at the time . Fast forward, I have never owned a BIGGER piece of junk !! List is too long to recite!!
    I can’t wait to remove from my driveway. Just purchased a 2019 Crewmax Limited. Never even took for a test drive .
