fuel transfer pump on hybrid

Putting a fuel transfer tank in my trd pro, trying to find an easy way to access 12v, is there an easy way into the cab to get to the battery, or is there somewhere else under the hood that i could maybe access for 12v, like that passenger fuse box. thanks for the info

 

How's that gonna work with the pressurized tank? Just get a fuse tap and use the fuse box

 

The hybrid isn't about saving the earth. It's about power....and lots of it. I can't even drive my hybrid in sport mode in traffic because the truck wants to haul some serious ass.

There is cab access for your wires under the driver's seat.

 

Salty that you cant afford a new hybrid?

 

Ive driven both the 22 hybrid and non hybrid. the hybrid is so much better in everyway. Zero turbo lag and just a zippy truck. Its perfect

 

Can you link to this so called "performance test"?

I've owned a '22 non-hybrid and now own the hybrid. The truck is unmistakably faster. I think the article you were reading was about mpg. Hybrid mpg is not much better than the ttv6, but again, it was added for power.

 

Not a very good comparison. They compared a TRD Pro vs. A non-hybrid limited. The TRD Pro has a lot of differences from the limited that makes it better for off-road, but those differences also make the TRD Pro slower and get lower gas mileage.

Look at this comparison. Same engine setup. Same drive train. Much different mpgs. Will be different speed/acceleration too.

Sorry Car and Driver mislead you.

 

I agree with this. I test drove a non-hybrid after putting my deposit down and was fairly disappointed; it just didn't really feel that much faster than my 2020 Tundra despite having significantly more torque. I figured there would be turbo lag followed by a rush, but the rush didn't wow me. Then I got my Limited hybrid and holy crap that sucker moves. There's a remarkable difference. I have not done a brake boosted 4x4 launch in a non-hybrid, but I did it a couple times in the new hybrid and it's impressive. Totally crushes my 2020.

I highly suspect that this hybrid/non-hybrid debate will be similar to the 4th gen 4Runner debates about V6 and V8 models. People with V6's always claimed there was no benefit to the V8, but they were just trying to justify it to themselves. The V8 was faster and smoother and had negligible economy differences.

 

Did the V6/V8 debates on the 4Runner also involve people who hadn't driven either option, but wanted to sound knowledgeable on the internet by referencing tests done by different people, at different times, probably different geographic areas, one of which was a pre-production truck loaded with off-road gear and chunky tires?

 

@kregstrong, I would run it to the battery directly with a waterproof inline fuse instead of putting it as an add-on to an OE circuit. This would ensure less strain on factory wiring and Toyota would be less likely to try to say it caused the electical issue if one arises in the future.

 

Most likely yes.

Obviously different geographical areas and local weather conditions will have an impact, but something I didn't think about was the impact that individual drivers have on things like acceleration tests. I've seen so many acceleration tests of the new 2022 Tundra on YouTube where the driver doesn't have a clue about brake boosting and/or putting it in 4x4, and then they get a pretty lame 0-60 time. Like 8 seconds. Of course it's lame.

Also, some publications remove rollout time (1 or 2 tenths) and some don't. So yeah, it's hard to tell without driving them yourself, ideally on the same day.
