    Hi guys Brand new to Toyota, brand new to trucks. I’ve been a SUV guy for ever but after several expense and early replacements on my 2015 Ford Expy, I decided to make a change and am Super excited to dive into this.

    2019 SR5 TRD Off Road CM, color MGM (MGM seems to be a hot topic what’s that all about, I know it’s the best color) but not sure why the controversy.

    I have the 5.7L FFV, I’m wondering if anyone has anything good or bad to say about the FFV because I did not really think about that when I first bought it.

    Flex fuel is great, and the last of a dying breed. We have better parts in our engine that can withstand more abuse. That corn shit they were trying to sell on us in the last decade was rough on engines. Doesn’t hurt to have FFV

    Welcome from WA! I can't speak to the FFV issue but I do know running E85 is harder on things and changes your maintenance intervals to 5k oil changes. Something to keep in mind if you ever plan to give it a try and have a dealer maintenance package.
