    I have 2019 Tundra with 320.000 miles +/- and plannig to buy a Land Cruiser or a Lexus GR550 but I have my doubts with the longevitity of twin turbo engines and this new V6 twin turbo Toyota engine runs pretty hot and it will fry every rubber, sensors, plastic and rubber hoses under the bonnet just give some time and will happen.
    They should offer a natural aspirate engine even if they don´t want to built V8s anymore with a V6 will be nice like the one on the Four Runner.

    Yeah but have TURBO badge sells a lot more vehicles than one that says naturally aspirated. Hell, many don't have a clue what the latter even means. It does sound cool like vegan, organic etc.
