I love sport mode but usually keep it in normal. I have a 22 limited TRDoff road iForce Max. That's a really interesting comparison, looking forward to seeing the Eco numbers vid!
I really expected the new gen. Tundras to get much better fuel mileage then the 2nd gen.,However my 2020 SR5 TRD OFF ROAD DC gets 18-to over 20 mpg on the highway with normal driving. To everyone who has the new gen. Tundra, l wish you the best of luck with your new trucks. I am going to keep my Tundra for the foreseeable future and beyond !!
I drive in Tow+ pretty regularly with a lift and large tires and love how it drives and my mpg is 2-3mpg better than 5.7 with similar build. Great drive train in the new generation @toyotausa 👏🏼
I have yet to crack 17.0 mpg (16.6 mpg). Non- hybrid 2022 1794. 9,000 miles now. My 2017 GX460 with V8 bests my twin turbo every time. 2.1 mpg better!! Same driver, same driving style!
I always wondered about mpg in Sport mode. Thanks for the review Mark. I am usually in Normal mode however I do go into Sport mode the last 30 miles before a fill up. I do like the Sport mode. I’ll have to see if I get what you got in Sport mode. However I tend to drive a little bit faster more into the 70-75 range with a sprinkle of 80 to pass slower moving vehicles.
Just got a 2024 TRD off-road. Loving it so far. Still have my 2014 SR5 and love it. 267k miles and I would not hesitate to drive it from my home in houston up to Alaska. That being said, it was time to make it strictly a work truck on the property here. I just subbed to your channel. Looking forward to learning more about my new ride.
Why use sport mode on freeway? Manual specifically says it’s for mountain canyon driving when weaving back n forth in curvy roads. Plus it lowers cabin fan power. Stupid, LOL. However it is good for open freeway on-ramps to sport car that shit up to speed with the quickness. Thanx again I used your code for my TRD lift kit
I have the 2023 Tundra SR5 trd sports package. Will my vehicle be ok if I drive it in sports mode all the time? Also is the shifting optional? Can I be in sports mode and not manually shift?
‘22 Platinum. I got it in May of ‘22. I used Eco for most of that time. I Drive in ‘comfort’ mode and I have seen 22.3 MPG a few times on my drive 21 mile drive to work. Comfort mode seems like sport mode a bit. Tense like you stated. I also have “sport s +” mode and that mode is scary.
I wonder what would you get if you drive in Colorado. I never got even close too what they rate the truck. Got about 16 with the 22 d/ c trd off road. You must live on the flat lands😁
Hey dude, the gas station you were at is 1/2 mile from my house. I reached out to you last time. I have a limited mesquite crewmax. The hills in our area really affect mileage as I told you last time. I am surprised with your mpg in sport.
With a leveling kit and 275/60/20 generals I am getting 17 , however the elevation here goes from 1900 to sea level in four miles. Downhill 30ish uphill 9ish
My f150 V8 has normal, eco, Sport, ice/snow, mud and tow/haul. Typically I use normal. Using Sport mode is holy shit fun. Tow haul is great especially if your in hilly back country or interstates. Regardless of brand, learning how the different modes change settings will help you be a smarter driver for the conditions you are experiencing.
Nice comparison test, I've noticed doing city driving from work to home and I usually get better mpg compared to normal mode. Obviously you don't need to get on the gas more when you are starting off. Definitely you have to change your driving habits. Also are you using 87 octane as per recommended? Thank you
Really not much better than my 5.7. Maybe a mile or 2 better in normal/sport mode for the 3.5. Definitely not worth the upgrade to a newer Tundra for just the gas mileage.
Platinum has the sport plus and custom as well. Good information. I’ve got a 300 mile trip to make. I’ll try one leg in sport plus and then eco. Thanks for sharing
@@paulamaral8029 If you have AVS you get Sport+ which Stiffens the suspension for better cornering. It also comes with a Comfort mode that softens the suspension for highway driving. In this mode it will float down the interstate like a luxury sports car.
Dang my 2024 SR5 four-wheel-drive TRD is only getting 16.3 miles per gallon average but I have not tried Eco or sport sport yet

Ive got a 2023 SR5 TRD OR. I drive in eco mode. I get 17 mpg in a round town driving and 21 to 22 highway if i keep it close to 70mph.
"it feels like a Ferrari" the wife WTH!
Htr was on hwy, what about city?
Son mentiras en el modo sport da 12 mpg y en modo eco da 16mpg
I normally use normal but I love tow/haul ...it turns the truck into a beast from a stop,
My guess is better like 21. My 22 gmc had that too I have a V8 getting 21 on highway 75mph

Nice! Once you have documented ECO mode, repeat all 3 trips with 800 pounds of payload secured in the bed.

So did you ever experienced wind noise even after this?
No wind noise, no rattles
I drive my on sport all time and i get 19-21 miles gallon
While one sports mode, do you manually shift up and down or you let the vehicle do the shifting?
Do you switch to sports mode every time or the truck will memory your last selection?.

My hybrid uses the battery more when I need power, such as going up hills. Makes me wonder if I'm getting better mpg. I'll have to check.

Get yourself a Bluetooth mic like “DJI”or “rove” will improve your voice ! Too much back ground noise
Do you plan to lift your truck in the future?
Probably not. It rides so good as is

Haha your right on sport mode function re: rpm if I have to pass I’ll roll into sport mode then dial back to normal. Fun truck to drive
Just got 19 MPG in my 2020 Sequoia in sport mode from Dallas to Houston. Not impressed with new Tundra MPG. Love my 5.7

Drive mine in normal or comfort mode most of the time I got 22 mpg at 76 mph.

Slow down 😁
@@TundraDude34 its all slow small town errand miles
Once the miles start racking up, the fuel mileage should increase
Does the SR5 have drive modes?
Eco, normal and sport
Turn the air conditioning on and watch it drop!
AC was on the whole ride.
stock air filters or trd air filters?
Excellent question, trd air filters
Really not much better than my 5.7. Maybe a mile or 2 better in normal/sport mode for the 3.5. Definitely not worth the upgrade to a newer Tundra for just the gas mileage.

Good information. I’ve got a 300 mile trip to make. I’ll try one leg in sport plus and then eco.

What’s sport plus is that the manual mode ? I have a 22 trd all I see is eco normal and sport am I missing something 🤷🏻♂️

Do the math and on the highway 15 and city 12, the Guages are built to not tell the truth!
In this case, the truck computer told me a lower mpg number then the actual pump to pump calculation. Thats a first lol
My 2014 SR5 Tundra 5.7 gets that or better. You would think a V 6 would get better than that!
