Definitely watch BEFORE you buy a New Tundra! - Honest Review after 10k miles

- The 2022 Tundra was one of the most exciting trucks to be released last year, especially if you've been a lifelong Toyota fan. But after we all got our hands on it and owners started to put their trucks to use I'm sure many of us identified problems with the Tundra as well as highlighted areas where the Tundra exceled. After 8 months of ownership and over Ten thousand miles I have been able to use the new tundra in many different environments and situations and I feel confident that my honest review is accurate and that many owners will have to agree with my findings. This video is definitely a must watch for anyone interested in buying the #2022tundra or #2023Tundra

Hearing that you fixed the beeping problem is a game changer.
Really appreciate your honesty. And your review is exactly why I try hard to avoid first model-years. As much as I want to have the newest style and tech, it just needs that time to work out the kinks.
Love your build on this truck Maxx! I have a '21 Tundra and previously a '15. Both of them took forever to switch in and out of 4 wheel drive, so it's good to hear Toyota has remedied that in the new model.
Good stuff really happy you are enjoying your truck again👍🏻👍🏻
What a great video! fun, no, funny, in so many ways! Fast paced which is so nice to see. Done so well! thanks for the info and even better, the laughs!
Hey thanks man. I appreciate the positive comment!
Love my 2013 tundra rock warrior I will never sell it! Glad to see you liking to the tundra. I wondered for a long time watching your videos for the past few years if you’d ever get one.
Great honest review. I got the 1794 TRD off road a couple of weeks ago, and I love it. So far the only complaint that I have is under normal city and highway driving I have averaged about 13.6 MPG, and I only have 300 miles on the truck. Hopefully this will improve later as the engine breaks in.
Right on! Good choice of truck man. The system may learn your driving habits and adjust. I get about 12.5 with my 37s and heavy foot 🦶
Too late, I have one in the garage.
Garages are for everything but vehicles, how dare you!
As long as it stays in there, you won't have any problems. Lol
Trade it in for a 2015 and save a lot of cash spend it on suspension or on vacations or anything else
@@robertespinoza2740 I’m good, thanks.
@@LoredMarilius more reliable better sound better stronger transmission stronger interior that don’t rattle. Better 6 speed transmission for Off-roading less electronics to go wrong. We better visibility. Trust me I got one and went back right away.
Thanks for the information about the Toyota tundra I Purchased one on March 8 Limited love it from JR👍
I've had mine since Sept 22, No issues, I love it..
Great review!!!!
Thanks for the heads up on recalls and honest value 1 to 10 of a 5. Same type of value being put on jeep gladiators.
100% agree with Maxx, turbo noises are right up there, not quite as good, but definitely right up there.
I wish they came with the front end looking like that, your truck looks so good.
Tundra owner here - Assuming your phones are new(ish), they should have wireless charging capabilities. If you opted for the wireless charger or even just plugging your phone into the port in the center console, it connects you to wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto so you don’t have to pay for navigation.
It also puts your navigation on the MID cluster.
I appreciate the effort put into this video. I’m more curious than anything else. Had a Gen 2 Raptor now I’m in a TRX. So I kinda screwed myself because I can’t ever downgrade from where I’m at and accustomed to lol. I will agree a Gen 2 Raptor is a great value for what it is with all these modern trucks. My Gen 2 Raptor fully equipped had more features than my current level 2 TRX. Put 85k miles on my raptor and drove it from PA to FL at least a dozen times. Held up decent. Had to do cam phasers twice and some other power train issues and sun roof tracking broke twice. TRX is good so far but something about Ford and the Raptors they are just dialed in suspension wise..
This is what I wanted to see as a Toyota fanboy. An honest review of the breakout year model for a new generation Tundra. I really wanted to see you grow into liking the Tundra after a bit of personalization but anticipated your mileage if that wasn't the case. I like hearing the gripes but I also question myself what/how something could have been improved to live up to your comparison. i.e. What is it that Des doesn't like about the seats specifically and who does it better, etc? I know the basis for comparison was in large part the Raptor, so the similarities are super helpful to someone in the market for a new truck. As always, thanks for doing what you do, constantly informing and inspiring! Glad you all are feeling better. BTW that azz shot at 20:30 is sexxxxxy!
P.S. Still bitter about the sale of the crawler. I bought a 2000 (in 05) when I turned 16 (34 now) and daily drove it for 16 years until my single cab wasn't conducive for the advent of a second child. I seem to remember in my earlier years those weren't what I would consider "all highway miles" either. I would drive it to high school still covered in mud from the night prior. I would never sell it and now after years, it becomes my dedicated play toy. I loved seeing you with yours having fun snow wheeling. I guess I just have another channel to follow now.

Yeah but the thing is this sr5 should not be compared to a ford raptor being the highest trim level of the f-150 until the raptor R comes out soon but still it shouldn’t even be comparable. At least the trd pro would be better since it is the highest trim right now for the tundra until the trail hunter comes and that would be even more comparable but that’s more of an overlanding trim and neither trim is intended to be a performance super truck like the raptor or trx. I know he’s just comparing what he owns now compared to what he owned before and he even said the raptor spoiled him and he’s basically saying he knows they really aren’t supposed to be compared but I personally like the trd pro tundra more and would choose it over the raptor having owned both myself. Currently own the trd pro, traded in my raptor and haven’t regretted it at all. I tried to do something outside of Toyota but I realize that I just feel at home in a toyota and everything about them just works for me personally. Also own a 5th gen 2018 built up 4runner which is my baby and wouldn’t trade that for anything. The 2022 trd pro tundra is amazing tho and feels very refined and has a ton of power, looks kinda awkward with stock 33’s but upgrading to 35’s sets it off perfectly and the stands is perfect now and matches the rest of the design of the truck, and only looks better with 37’s from what I’ve seen of people putting 37’s on the new tundras but I’m perfectly happy with 35s right now.
That rumble is why I love my v8 gx460.
Well this was very entertaining especially when you mentioned you had to finger the control to make it move faster up and down, it brought a big smile to my face and I noticed Dez was quite entertained by it but you misted the whole thing Maxx but Im sure you picked up on it when you reviewed the footage before sharing it... That is what I love about you guys, its not always business, its comedy, sadness, and everything in between. Wishing you guys all the best in the New Year Maxx, keep up the awesome videos and never change variety of videos... Great Video ..
I have a 2022 Tundra as well. Heads up on the nav, its free for 10 years once you sign up for an account. I felt the same way but Toyota has changed it. Super nice when your phone doesn't have connection.
My 07 Tundra, it's not good. It's on its 5th set of tires. It won't stop running.
Thanks for these two videos! Looking to upsize from a Tacoma. Had an F250 before the Taco. The F250 was just too big. Driving around Alaska in my cousin’s old Tundra has me thinking hard about trading in the Taco. Also being new grandparents… there just isn’t a lot of room for child safety seats in the back. Again, thanks for sharing your experiences.
Right on! Hope these videos help you pick out the right truck!
All good points. Great show and tell. Thank you. It’s probably a good idea to give Toyota an other year to figure out a few things.
TOYO AT3s are glorious, gotta try them !! Super quiet but very capable
Good stuff as always sir. Glad you're liking the truck. I'm still not a fan but they do look better with lift wheels and tires. But I can't say the 5.7 Tundra is boring or bad. They're arguably the most reliable engine ever, pretty quick for what they are, tow really well, ride decent but yes get bad gas mileage lol. Also I think they look much much better.
I agree with everything you said
My 2023 is in route i pickup in February stoked
I watched all your videos and trdjohn and a few others. Checked every forum I could find. Pulled the trigger on a 2023 tundra limited trd off road. Absolutely phenomenal my first toyota and I love it. All the complaints you guys have had about the 22 I think toyota listened and got them worked out my 23 has been great 2k miles so far. Yes it's annoying it took all you're complaints to fix it the 22 should've been better I'm sorry but the 23 at least as limited and trd off road is great. Highly recommend.
good real life review
That’s a nice truck! My favorite color
what bumper are u rocking ..tks for the videos and honest reviews
The innuendo and Des' smirks!! 🤣🤣
I just got a 2023 Toyota tundra TRD off road and I love it seeing that I always has a ram. The Toyota is such a better vehicle
These look so good with higher clearance bumpers and bigger tires!
What trim tundra is this Max? Thanks love your videos. Get better
I have that same jacket your wearing from Pendleton haha . It definitely screams I buy the good stuff 😅.
Holy smokes Maxx. I'm still laughing. Dez your face said it all. You guys made my day. 😬😳🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hi Maxx and Dez! I've never won anything before. I am paying it forward to someone who is in need. Thank you for your content and upbeat enthusiasm. That is enough for me. 👌👍
Configuring my future Tundra today
For a younger man you do well with your commentation and expertise in knowing all about your trucks and vehicles so therefore it will save me from reading my Toyota owners manual or should I say owners Library..Ha thanks for the review...I am considering buying a Tundra and I might go with the SR version because I will not tow more than 8700lbs...save the 10k and get a Garmin....hahaha. You guys have style and have fun in snow country which I miss in north east Pa. which is the snow capital of the country....
Hey Maxx, awesome video. Thanks for posting. I was pretty bummed by your "10 things I hate about you" video, but glad to see Toyota help out an owner with a few quirks. Is yours a hybrid? And how did you make out installing the bumper. Great truck buddy 👍🏼
MAXX ! i’m sure youve talked about this before but u can’t find a video on it… i would like to know more about your business and how you started it. it would be amazing if you could make a video on it 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 big inspiration
@-Maxxpowell YOOO no way where do i dm???
You don't have to pay for Navigation. It has wireless carplay. Should've made that clear and many of them have wireless charging or can simply plug in your phone....you mentioned they were dead? Why not plug them in and use navigation?
The thing that killed it for me with the Tacoma was the poor visibility. Sorry to hear the same issues with the new tundra. I loved my 2013 tundra. Great trucks
The Tundra is coming along nicely Maxx! I think 37s on Tundra looks really good especially with the roof rack and bumper!
I’m torn between, waiting or paying the dealership mark up on the 23’ Tundra or just buy a 20 or 21’ V8. #1 I’ll be getting a stage 2 modification done on my Tundra anyway. #2 I’ll be adding a winch and off road lights that will mess with the sensors. Yes, I’m a Toyota fan boy and have an old Tundra and my son has a 20’ Tacoma Off Road.
That temp control knob needs a cig after that finger blast 😂😂😂
How is the performance with 37s? Big dip in power? MPG? Thanks!
Great information thanks
I’m thinking about getting one
My main concern is also the beeping
I have the original 2000 Tundra for 23 years. How can I disable the seatbelt beeping? Thanks buddy
I have a 2017 Tacoma TRD OR 4x4. I'm waiting until 2024 to get the Tundra on hopes they fix the issues.
sync your truck with apple carplay or android auto for free navigation and music... And you should have a homelink button on your headliner above yout mirror that can be programmed for gates or garage doors.
I love my 2023 platinum. I’ve gotta take it up to the dealership next week for it’s transmission recall though 😖 mines @ 7k miles
My nephew has a 22 Tundra TRD extended cab. It's been in the shop for electrical Gremlins 1/2 it's owned life.
What flannel you wearing bro? Looks killer
It does tow well I agree
I tried to get one for months but it was hard finding the exact package and color I wanted. Being low on the waiting list didn’t help either. Ended up trading the taco in for a Power Wagon. Haven’t regretted it yet 🤙
I bought a Tacoma in October and after 2 long road-trips (3-5 hours), it’s power train is a total dog. Really liked it at first but it’s so slow and small and any real off-road mods require suspension upgrades first.
I liked that truck for all of 4 months. Terrible on the highway, can’t handle big tires, and armor/gear overweighs it. I feel liked I drank the koolaid and made a terrible decision
I 100% agree
The late model Gen 2.5's will go down as such a legendary and beloved truck. 3rd gen is ushering in a new era for Toyota and I don't think they'll get it fixed until later years of the 3rd gen and probably won't get it right until the 4th gen.
Well. My main complaint is I can’t see over the damn tow mirrors. Seat won’t go high enough. But also the reliability of Toyota kinda puts blind shields on all the small details. I have a 2011 4Runner, and a 1997 T-100 that’s gone through 4 teenagers and only thing that broke down was the clutch. Trust me my kid drove that truck for 3 years and did not even changed or fills the oil. It starts up every time. That’s when I knew I had to get the new tundra.
I think the core of that truck is great did they go to aluminum or did they stick with steal ?
The only issues I have had with mine was interior issues. Stuff like the side seat panel breaking when entering or exiting the truck (known issue and will be fixed under warranty) and rattles after about 22,000 miles. But hands down, one of my favorite new truck ever. I like it way better than the ford F150 FX4 and the Chevy 1500 Z71 with like features, I have owned both.
Coming from a 20’Trd PRo I was skeptical. After driving the 1794 and experiencing all the new tech I quickly forgot about the new Gen & decided to buy. I did go with the 2023 model.
Nice man. I’m sure you’ll love it. I’ve gotten used to my truck and I like it a lot more now
@@Maxx.Powell definitely!! I do miss the roar of v8 but 1794 is such a treat to drive.
Where did you get the jacket? Brand?
@5:14 I'm shocked to hear "good turning radius" as this seems to be one of the biggest gripes of the new Tundra. I work for a Toyota Dealership and the turning radius is atocious!
How does the front brush bar effect the safety features
I wanted to trade my ‘13 Tundra for a new one, but there is one big deal breaker - NO FRONT BENCH SEAT! With 4 kids that is a no go.
She does look gorgeous.
What kind of gas mileage do you get? I have a 2013 Tundra and I wish it got better gas mileage. Truck looks great with bumper and sliders.
I have a 2020 TRDpro, I wish I did more research before getting the truck, it’s my first Toyota ever and I didn’t realize it didn’t come with a locker which makes no sense but after a year with this truck I love it more than any Ford or Chevy I have owned, I can always put a locker in later 😊
Low range with ATRAC engaged is pretty amazing. I thought I'd miss a locker but have not needed it yet.
@@gregjoubert5118 unfortunately my tundra didn’t even come with that either, Toyota put all the goodies on the Taco and 4Runner
@@roberthanna5497 Just looked. Looks like it was 2007-2013. Mines a 2013 and has it. Sad that they would do away with it on later models.
I thought all trd pros/ OR had a locker? Man that’s the main reason I got my pro 4Runner. Other than bragging rights of course.
@@armandocamarena3229 I might be wrong since I’m new to owning Toyota’s but from what I understand tundras never came with lockers until this new generation
Hook your phone to your truck and charge it... then connect bluetooth and use android auto or apple carplay and use your preffered map app. I use google maps. Its awesome on the tundra screen!
question about the navigation, that's like the Toyota navigation not like Apple Car Play or anything that like correct?
Would be nice when the front suspension comes in
Man I’m a Toyota fan and traded my 2022 tundra for an f150 tremor. F-150 is bigger inside than the tundra. Second gen tundra was roomier inside. Couldn’t stand all the safety beeps either. The f-150 has got a nice balance.
Good video tho. But I’m not the guy that’s gonna upgrade my truck the way you do, but your upgrades look good tho.
Hey I traded my tundra for a tremor also! Just did it a few weeks ago. I had a 21 tundra trd pro though.
I looked at the new tundra and just too many head scratchers a love this new tremor though. I upgraded the front suspension to fix the insane rake.
Whoo, first!
I like to see a 5.7 and 3.5 do a pull together.
Not a fan boy of anything but if a company is making good stuff I'll get it from them and easy to find out what are duds and what is quality with all these platforms that you can get so much great info these days .
FWIW - Tundra's are built in San Antonio for the Americans. They built that truck with Americans in mind and definitely not their homeland.
The Hybrid variant of this truck is kind of a sweet spot for me. Need to be able to pull a boat and 12,000 lbs is a nice option. Unfortunately, that means $70k.
Maxx, what are you averaging for gas mileage? Maybe you said it & I missed it.
Only thing I miss about my second gen tundra is how roomy it was but didn’t work for the city
Also I found the 4x4 shifting in the tundra was slower than the ford. Especially switching back to 2x4 in the tundra.
How is the mpg?
Wish Toyota would adopt the Auto-4x4 along with the locker in 4-HI :(
Hi dear there’s any chance for damaged for the new steering power for the new tundra 2022 as like others electric type ??? Ram ,GMC
Rented one for a road trip, many positives including great low end torque and soft ride but limited visibility. I’ll wait for the 2024 Nissan Titan before buying.
Just went and drove one it was nice but decided to keep my ford.
Over on the website of Washington. Run the logging roads all year with my 09 silverado. Transmission is starting to slip at 220k miles. Have a appointment at foothills toyota to test drive a tundra. Still not sure if I will go with the tundra or silverado. I use my truck as a truck!
Curious what 37's did to the gas mileage
You should never have to settle for anything. Something growing on you at $70,000 plus is your first mistake. After seeing your ten things you hate about the New Tundra I’ve definitely going to keep my 2016 Tundra Limited which has no negatives.👍 Funny you are the first to say the New Tundra has good Turning Radies.😂
Yes
If this was around Thanksgiving, I definitely saw you on HW2
It was!
I recently made a deal on a 23 red limited that hasn’t been built yet. I purposely stayed away from the 22 model after the early reviews. I didn’t pay any dealer markup but I didn’t get a discount. Right now I’m not planning any mods.
ive been offroading in my 4runner off road with a sun roof for 5 years and never one flex. All trucks should be body on frame so flexing should be very minimal
And to add the the front windshield I have test driven a Tundra found it no different then the 2021 Tacoma I have .
I seen your 10 hates and now this video. I think you might have been much happier with a Ford Tremor or Raptor (Gen3). You really liked your Gen 2 Raptor but the new Gen 3 Raptor is way better! Even the Tremor is nicer than the Gen 2 (not suspension wise but everything else). Your Tundra looks great though!
2019 Tacoma Sport, after Nitro gears, was acceptable. Almost bought the Tundra instead, but held off until this July and traded the Tacoma for a Platinum Tundra. Call me a fanboy, I just don’t care, but the power that sleeps until you punch it sealed my purchase deal. Like max said, lift it and throw meaty tires on it and it still has no issue putting you back in your seat!
Hey i knew that place looked familiar?? You were up antilon lake? Manson!
Hey that’s right. Great eye!
Wifey called you out on oil change madness. Hahaha
The off road isn't supposed to have the air dam?
you should try FPV droning since you like being out in nature
Dobinsons releasing a full kit for the tundra! ETA may 2023, do you mind doing a review when you get them
I will totally do that!
@@Maxx.Powell thanks a lot man! Been loving my tundra too but I need a lift! The full kit looks good and a pretty decent price point too! Can’t wait
WOW Washington to Florida and back with no oil changes and the raptor blew up! Lol! What was that like 7k miles. I could never recommend someone to buy things that can't go a few extra miles between changes.
We need a review n test of the Baja Boss A/T too much ko2 now and days
if you live where I do in Northern ontario in Canada, ....where in the winter the truck basically has to be in 4H all the time, be prepared for sub 10MPG! I kid you not. I'm mostly city driving and I love my 2023 Platinum Hybrid and previous for 5 months a 2022 TRD PRO but 4H, in town....consistently and you're looking at like 9mpg. :D at least Navigation is free in Canada!
That sucks. Even with a hybrid model! Jealous you got free navigation haha
@@Maxx.Powell - It's really weird. My 2022 TRD PRO came with running boards and a bunch of other features the American one didn't but didn't feature the digital rear view mirror....navigation was also included with that one along with 5 years of the app subscription...I think you guys only get one year. I traded the PRO in for my Platinum since It's a better overall family vehicle and it had towing mirrors plus, let's be fair....I'm not running the Baja anytime soon and I prefer more creature comforts....either way, Like you I'm delighted. Love my truck....the gas mileage sucks though, but then, if that's what I was aiming for I'da bought a prius right? haha
