    I'm with you. I have had all brands...Nissan, Dodge, Ford, Chevy, GMC...and stuck with GMC the most. My 2019 Tundra is my first ever Toyota and it has by far been my favorite truck.

    Thought I'd chime in a little here too. I have about 7,500 miles on mine so far. In that time I've hauled a dual axle camper on 3 separate trips. Total weight of camper+Truck, fully gassed up, with all people/luggage/fluids was 10,640 pounds. Verified at Cat scales with the following readings:

    Truck with 3 passengers and luggage = 6,420 pounds
    Camper + truck = 10,640 pounds

    Trip #1 - 120 mile round trip through kentucky mountains. Completely clear conditions.
    Trip #2 - 1200 mile round trip through mountains of west virginia. Awful 7+ hours of driving rain.
    Trip #3 - 750 mile round trip through mostly flat land in western kentucky and tennessee. Completely clear conditions.

    All trips were mostly run in S5 on the interstate at 70mph. Occasionally backing off speed and going to S4 on really steep inclines.

    One issue I've seen is that the Adaptive cruise control will sometimes cancel in extremely heavy driving rain. Error message was something like "Adaptive speed control disabled: Clean sensor". You could still use regular cruise control and the adaptive will eventually come back online.

    2nd issue is when coming up behind someone who is turning off the road into a side street or parking lot, the collision alert will activate and scare the bejesus out of you sometimes, because it obviously can't understand what's happening.

    Fuel mileage is about 12mpg around town depending on how much I hot-rod it. 17.5mpg unloaded at 72mph on the interstate.

    Pulling a camper at 70mph it gets about 9.3mpg. The last trip pulling the camper I tested it at 65mph for one tank of gas to see what difference it made and got 10.3mpg.

    Some observations:
    The adaptive cruise control is the bee's knees.
    The truck greatly prefers 65 mph when towing. It shifts far less and doesn't 'hunt' for the right gear as much.
    Truck feels extremely well planted and controlled even at 70+mph in driving rain pulling a camper. On flat ground in cruise I often forget the camper is there.
    Power is plentiful and predictable.
    Double cab has more than enough room for passengers.
    It's a 4wd truck and often has a stiff ride/bounce.
    The bed is too tall. It's almost impossible to reach anything in the bed over the side-walls.

    Overall, I love the truck.

    Heavy rain, or iced condition over night I've had the same issue on the cruise control, strange thing is my wife's lexus has never once done this.

    For the alert issue I'm pretty sure you can adjust the sensitivity through your center display.

    Gas mileage was known so I certainly can not complain, although I am a lead foot..
    I knew it was not a heavy towing truck and I don't plan on it, just a small trailer for the bikes.

    8800 on my 19 CM, my only complaint so far is the lines for the back up camera are off center. Told there was nothing they could do at the dealer, and by Toyota. Super frustrating when every other manufacture can figure this out.

    The radar cant work if its blocked. Mine goes out in heavy rain/snow. Just have to clean off the front of it once the weather clears.

    I was aware of that before I bought so it's not something I can really consider a complaint for me.

    Driver's-side power lumbar motor went out at 8,000 miles. Took 3 weeks to order part and 3 hours to install, guess they like 3's.
    I'm in WI and use 4x4 about every 9 days and the auto-locking hubs don't seem to release correctly. Worst I have seen is 5.5 miles of driving after turning back to 4x2 and still locked. Dealer can't replicate.

    My '19 Limited now has 13,000 miles. Drivers seat leather took some time to break in but now feels like second skin. No cam tower leak. While I miss the column shift of my last Tundra I don't mind the floor shift. It's just where I would prefer more storage space and cup holders. Maybe even a trash bin. Love the moon roof and rear window combo for airflow. My only complaint would be gas mileage BUT it's not. I knew going in what it was, and accepted it before buying it. Not going to complain after the fact.
