Official 2022 Tundra 3rd Gen Thread

Love the guy or hate him he still gets clicks from em all and I highly doubt he gives a 2 shits!!

 

2022 CMOR LB SR5. Two questions, does anyone get a rattle from the back window when it’s down? Sounds like something is loose inside the window mechanism or the box? Second, any news, thoughts or info regarding the annoying wind noise from the upper part of the drivers door/window?

 

People are paying over sticker on kia’s. Especially the telluride

 

Nice! Was real excited when saw they were doing standard bed on the crewmax. How’s it drive?

 

my brother in law/ sister in law had their 4Runner totaled in an accident a few weeks ago. They needed a family car and I recommended the Telluride/ Palisade and they loved them. Kia- 8 month wait and $10k adm, got lucky with a white top of the line Palisade that someone bailed on, no mention of adm but at the end of signing paid $5k over for it- they had to have a new car though, 1 car family and she is pregnant with their second kid.

 

Researching and trying to get comfortable with the idea of owning the IForce MAX (hybrid) Tundra.

it is my understanding that electric ingenuity auto engines have been around since the 1900.

But when comparing EV, Hybrid, and ICE durability / longevity, i guess the only evidence we have of a mass produced hybrid is the Toyota Prius which was introduced I think in 2000. What is the durability/reliability record for this? Could we use this as a benchmark for the new IForce MAX (hybrid) Tundra engine?

 

my limited knowledge of the Prius outside of word of mouth and friends that own them makes me think that it is damn near bullet proof and has very little issues. Batteries eventually go, but they aren’t that expensive to replace

 

Big Reason I will probably not buy an EV Truck anytime soon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuW8P4uvKoI

 

Idk something tells me he cries about all the hate he reads lol

 

Some might say the same for the Tundra only getting 14 (and some change) mpg while towing a small, light and somewhat aerodynamic trailer. That's some gen 2 miles per gallon right there.

 

Agreed. I drove one for a while. Great little car capable of racking up extremely high miles. There are taxi Priuses with 600k miles on them out there with no issues. It also happens to remove everything enjoyable about the driving experience, lol. Traded mine in on my wife’s Yukon XL.

Yep. The gen 2 will get less than that under the same conditions, but the real mpg benefit of the gen 3 seems to be cruising unloaded (i.e., not doing truck stuff).

 

that is what I’ve been hearing very solid build an about the only other consumer hybrid i have heard about is i think the honda insight??

 

For you guys that like the 22....

“hello” my name is bocephus and I am a Tundra Addict


It is Sunday an Excuse me why i ramble on a bit ….


You see this site and all of you have been so kind, funny ,posting and posting an gettin all jello about this new 3rd gen Tundra for over a year. Shit you got me ! Yep i got more and more addicted to this site because of YOU all and your Tundra fantasies! i really hate to admit that but you all sure did get me. Now i am a full blown Tundra Addict. And there is no cure for this type of addiction.

i don’t wanna let the dogs out Heck for all i know you all are probably just 4 dudes an dudets with a bunch of profiles posting back an forth like one big circle jerk family. YES i said circle-jerk. dang this has been one big crazy trip all i can do is grab a bourbon a cigar and go sit on the back porch an laugh at myself for getting so caught up in it all. HEY you will recognize me as i stand up in the meetings and say “hello” my name is bocephus and I am a Tundra Addict.

 

I’ve tried some searches but have been unable to find it- there was a video on the original 2022 thread that was either a press or dealer meeting in Texas from late summer. In the video a toyota exec shared a project timeline for release of upcoming model re-designs, such as Tundra Nov 21, Sequoia In xx, 4 runner in xx, etc. Does anyone that recalls have a link to that video or a graphic of that timeline?
Thanks!

 

and from Tacomaworld....

 

That is some Gen 2 miles per gallon right there… about what my Gen 2 gets driving around empty at 75-80 MPH.

 

Yeah, I was trying to be nice! But I'd be willing to bet a tiny 2k trailer on a gen 2 wouldn't reduce the already poor mileage by much at all since you're getting ... what, 17 at best anyway?

 

I’d take a palisade over the Kia. I like the interior a lot better.

but my friends sells tellurides all day in KC for 56-58k .

 

not so fast.. composite props have titanium leading edges.. just saying

 

That is beautiful.

 

yeah, out of tolerance we pull the blade and send it off. slap it back on then had the owner a 16,000 bill for rubber cement lol

 

Amazing!

 

I started watching without headphones and plugged them in a few minutes later. Big mistake.

 

This vid is the Rivian Ike Gauntlet test with 8100lbs. TFL has been giving that thing a workout, and good to see. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zce-wC__kkU

Yep.

Bocephus rep. Don't see that name much.

Yeah, that was disappointing. Gen 2 Sequoia keeps looking to be a keeper.

 

The dark chrome looks nice on this one in my opinion the wheels look great too

 

Does the platinum have puddle lights for entry ?

 

Still torn between WCP and silver. Saw another silver TRD sport in person today and looks good.
