What do you like about your 3rd gen. Tundra?

Big enough for the kids in the rear seats. Came from a Tacoma so the space has been awesome.

 

I like the living on edge feeling of knowing my engine could implode at any time.

I like guessing what the next recall or warranty repair will be.

I like wondering when my seat panel will crack again.

I like how the rattling center console drowns out the wind noise.

I like holding my hand up to shade the hood glare. Passersby think I'm waving at them.

I like that I can charge my phone from the bed outlet, but that's about all it's useful for.

I like having to zip tie down my tailgate to prevent it from falling off.

I like paying the dealership $500 to change spark plugs every 40K miles.

I like multiple stops in the middle of a snow storm to clear the front sensors and camera.

I like when my brakes cool down and stop shuddering after adaptive cruise tries to melt them.

I have a few dislikes too, but that's not what this thread is about.

 

Apparently a few people misunderstood the assignment.

 

lol

I have zero complaints so far about the truck, it's be GREAT!

 

I like that mine is eco-friendly. I even have owls nesting under hood.

 

They keep the mice out?

 

In all honesty, I like the way it drives, coming in fresh from a 3rd gen tacoma, Toyota really got the transmission /engine programming down, along with a good feel for the electric steering.

 

I sure hope so cause they are drinking all my gas!

 

Blueprint gets the silver medal imo. MBM has the best of both -clean black with blue flake. Both surely are a pain to keep clean but I like cleaning the truck!

that silver would probably win bronze

 

I love black too, but after 6 black vehicles I was done.
And yes, the Blueprint is just as tough to keep looking nice as black, but I was ready for something different.

 

FORM:
- Coolest headlights/fog lights on a truck
- No chrome
- All body color except the grill and center bumper
- Bakflip looks so clean
- Interior/dash are spot on
- 14" screen
- Analog gauges
- SR5 TRD OR with Pro Goodies (Rally Package) - just how I like 'em.
- Something about the body lines are slightly reminiscent of earlier Toyota pickups
- It feels like a Toyota truck to me

FUNCTION:
- The engine is amazing. Gobs of torque and power in an incredibly smooth package.
- The transmission. Still getting used to a 10 speed, but it's grown on me alot.
- Tow+ mode. Can wait for camping season.
- Never had Android Auto before, but since my wife and I setup separate profiles tied to separate fobs, it's been working amazing.
- The interior is ultra comfortable
- The tech pack is plenty for me
- Wife loves the heated seats

DISLIKE:
- This forum has me convinced my main bearings are ticking time bombs.

 

It's like you're having a wonderful "Netflix and Chill" evening with a cute Tinder gal and a Hells Angel rolls into the living room, grabs your sex toy, and does a rolling smokey burnout back to the bar.

 

Ahhhhhh..........OK.........if you say so.

 

Hybrid 583 ft-lbs of torque!! Tows our inshore boat and you can't even feel it.
Tech / cameras / 14" screen
Rides like a luxury sedan
Lane centering
Heated & cooled seats
Huge back seat
Gas mileage (over 20 mpg in ECO when easy on the gas pedal)

 

I love how the truck rides and drives. Comfortable on long road trips, spacious. Really like the interior design and how buttons, knobs, etc is placed. Since I’m not a giant of a man, I have no issues with the short windshield, it’s perfect for me.

 

This story sounds a little too exact. When did this happen to you, and have you recovered?

 

I got rid of the Harley for a K1600. The Tinder gal still texts.

Would recommend.

 

Love this!

 

Go buy a Prius then.
Better yet, a Tesla. Just to ease your mind.

 

I can tell he Loves to talk about Tundra. Maybe he will talk about he what likes about his girlfriend.

 

You guys are in for it, Matt’s been grouchy lately, now your going to set him off again lol

 

@Matt2015Tundra busted my balls for not staying on the subject in another thread, I guess what goes around, comes around...

 

I like
Power, torque, rear window roll down, MTS, looks, towing, room, seats (Softex), mileage, capability

 

Haven't had mine long enough to roll down the rear window. (September) I do like the softex seats better than leather.

 

It’s great especially on a summer evening. Roll all the windows down and the rear, take a cruise……..If you have sun roof I bet it would be over the top!

 

It is! Especially when we drive the beach at the ocean.

 

Coming from a long line of landcruisers and 4runner builds the interior is really well designed. Ride quality of the PRO is very planted at speed and dig that the wheel wells with a minor lift and some trimming will take 37 without much lift...

 

I forgot a few....

I like the thrill of trying to maintain control on washboarded dirt roads as the rear end axle hops side to side.

I like how Lane Centering ping pongs side to side giving the impression I've had 2-3 too many martinis.

I like having multiple nannie warning sounds and visuals to distract me while pulling into my garage or parking at the grocery store.

I like how the brakes automatically slam on before I get the truck fully into my garage.

I like having to push a button to disable Auto Stop/Start every time I start the truck.

I like being asked if I want to take a coffee break every couple of hours.



Most of all, I like messing with guys who need affirmation from an internet forum to feel good about their truck purchase.

 

I most certainly don't need affirmation. I'm totally pleased with my truck & don't let it bother me one bit. It's all the negativity like posted above that makes me wonder why people keep driving their trucks when they are obviously so unhappy with their purchase. If all these problems bother you so much, trade it in. That way the people that are totally happy with their vehicles can live in peace. I've never seen so much belly aching as I have on here. Why be so miserable, just trade it.
