    I know I should have gotten the 5.7, but I didn’t..

    But I do want to throw bigger tires on the truck. I don’t feel like the 4.6L is that powerful...

    Curious how much power I’m gonna lose moving to 33s?

    Who’s running bigger tires with their 4.6L? Lift/level?

    35x12.5x20 Yoko Geolandar MTs with a 3” front lift only. Still gets moving when she needs to.

    My 2013 that I just recently sold was a 4.6. I ran a Toytec 3/2 coilover lift with 285/70/18's (33.9). I averaged around 14 mpg. A Pedal Commander will eliminate the sluggish throttle delay.

    I had a 2019 4.6L and never felt it didn't have enough power. I only traded it as it ran too hot towing so I bought a 2017 5.7L. I got $3k more than what I paid for it new on trade.

    Well either I’ve let the forum get to my head about the 4.6L or I just need to snag a pedal commander.

    I’d like to level the truck and throw some 275 70 r18 on this summer. I think that will look badass.

    I’m thinking about a 6” lift and bigger tires. Idk if the 4.6 can handle it.

    I'll see if I can find the pics....I had my 2013 leveled with 275/70's before I lifted it.

    My friend has had a 2006 Silverado since new, it has 285hp. My 2008 Tacoma had 236 hp. Your Tundra 4.6L has 310hp. So more HP than those trucks. There’s nothing wrong with the 4.6L. My 4.6L towed a heavy UHaul trailer with a Subie no problem through the hills of northern Ontario, 5300lbs.

    I actually think the 4.6L motor was smoother. The TRD exhaust sounded way better on the 4.6L than the 5.7L.
