Used 2020 Toyota Tundra Consumer Reviews
Gone but not forgotten
I sold my 2020 1794 and bought a Ford King Ranch. Comfort level in the KR is far superior, fuel economy currently at 2.5 compared to the Tundra 13 MPG. The Tundra was definitely a well designed long term truck but I sell and buy every two years and the Ford suits my needs better. More luxury and better fuel economy. I was going to buy a 2023 Tundra but the new model did not improve fuel economy to match the Ford according to Toyota.

Toyota Tundra
Neither Toyota or Toyota owners really care about edmunds stupid “Yawn” comment... Toyota and their customers are all about quality, not just stupid bells and whistles. Any intelligent person would buy a Tundra over any other brand pickup of similar capacity. When you have a GREAT product like the Tundra, there isn’t much need for updates or changes.....

2020 Tundra my wife won't drive
I leased my 2020 Tundra and paid the lease off early. I have found the drivers seat gets uncomfortable on long trips. However it is a good idea to take a break once in a while so this is not a major complaint. This truck rides as well as my 2003 Silverado did with which I was well pleased. The tundra has plenty of power and climbs the mountains of NE Pennsylvania effortlessly even when towing a trailer loaded with my quad. I wish there was a storage compartment under the rear seat but a tool box - from my 2012 Ranger which I sold at 125K miles on the Odometer- and a Tonneau cover have solved this issue. I have gotten over 17 mpg on a trip to Virginia with studded snow tires at an average speed of approximately 68 mph. This is not a truck one what's to buy if they are concerned about conserving gas. I bought this truck because I believe Toyota builds reliable products . I have found the info .features to be easy to access and use. What I like most about this truck is that my wife find it too hard to get in-not designed for short people. She also has a hard time judging right turns because the side mirror blocks her vision. I love my wife of 41 years but since this Tundra is my retirement present I'm glad she won't drive it.

Rock Solid Tundra!
This truck is perfect for the hauling, boat and snowmobile trailer towing I do. I had 2010 and hated to part with it since it never let me down, but the 2020 has some great features. I love the rear power window with defrost, apple car play, LED lights (beautiful), minimalist interior without all the clutter of the domestics, and of course the reliability of this continuously improved Tundra. I love the 5.7L V8 smoothness and power delivery. Very comfortable for long towing trips. My daily driver is a hybrid to keep the gas consumption under control, but this truck is a pleasure to drive and especially on trips with the family. I added a leer 700 topper, OEM rear tailgate unlock and bed LED lighting. I added a second set of TRD Tundra 2012 wheels with OEM sensor and can switch to them with a few pushes of the TPMS button and it recognizes the second set of wheels/tires. Love the 8" touchscreen not too big or too small. Update: 2 years now no issues. Only disappointment is the remote start. Toyota charges $80/year for that function to work? I only found it out when after a year remote start on the key fob stopped working. Buyer beware. Toyota's technology for GPS and other items is behind the curve and costly for updates. It's sad Toyota decided to pull another fast one on it's customers and charge for remote start. Not happy with that. As other Truck reliability improves I may start looking elsewhere. My 2014 Avalon Toyota software became quickly obsolete and unsupported. Pandora no longer works and have to pipe through Bluetooth like 15 year old vehicles. And even then just pumping Pandora through Bluetooth it drops the connection on and off at times for no reason. I can't believe a company the size of Toyota can't figure out how to implement reliable Bluetooth car play and Android technology and plan to support it at some basic level.

2020 SR5 vs 2010SR5
I traded my 2010 SR5 with 89k miles on it for a new 2020 SR5 basically the same truck only complaint is the 2020 seems a little "tinny: sounding compared to 2010. Most of my friends didn't notice I had replaced the 2010, truck looks almost the same.
Long-Term Review (4 years)
I bought a 2020 Tundra Limited 4WD CrewMax in December of 2019 after months of exhaustive research. I had always wanted a truck since I was a young boy and this now 40 year old's day had finally arrived! I compared the comparable Ford, GM and Dodge/Ram products and quickly narrowed it down to the Toyota and Dodge. Ram had a more supple ride and fancier interior, however for a long-term purchase, what I valued was reliability. I chose the Toyota and the Tundra has not disappointed. I now have 81,000 miles on it and have only had to change oil, tires, one defective battery (replaced under warranty) and I'm just about to do the first brake job. One of the front parking sensors broke and I haven't replaced it, just turned the sensors off. The Tundra is my daily driver (50 miles round trip) and I also tow a horse trailer and a 36 foot camper from time to time. The Tundra pulls both trailers with ease. I've made several road trips up and down I-35/I-45 in Texas, this truck is a great long haul cruiser. I've used the 4WD in rain, snow and mud and never once did I fear getting stuck. Gas mileage is typical for the 5.7 liter V8. I experience 14-15 in the city 17-18 on the highway. Happy to trade lower gas mileage for this bulletproof powertrain. Power comes on predictably in a linear fashion. Plenty of power for daily driving and torque for towing. It is not the smoothest riding truck on the road, but it isn't the worst either. I also added A/T tires which create some additional noise and bumpy ride - but the tradeoff for value and reliability are more than worth it. All in all I am very pleased with being a Tundra owner. It's a reliable work-horse with enough creature comforts to make it a pleasant daily driver, definitely not for the rhinestone cowboy. I plan to keep this truck for as long as it runs, thinking that might be a pretty good while given the experience of the first 4 years and 80k miles.

Fast and the 1794 isvery well equipped!
I purchased a 1794 on Jan 3rd. I have 2900 miles on it and it is very good in every respect. This is my fifth Tundra ans by fr the best one.The ride is a little stiffer than my Limited's that I have in the past. But the interior has a more comfortable seating. The leg rest on the front of the drivers seat makes it sooo comfortable on a long trip. Fuel economy is the same as the past Tundra's. But the truck has even more zip than my previous trucks. And best of all it won't rust out like some trucks with bow ties!
2020 SR5 w/SR5 upgrade package
This is my 5th 2nd gen Tundra and simply love these trucks. It is a true work horse and does everything I want it do. Its primary duty is a work vehicle and daily driver. It has an extremely comfortable ride, the cab is very roomy, love the split fold up rear seats and that is very handy when traveling w/three people on fishing vacation. Have a 24' center console boat and the 5.7 engine pulls it no problem, its a very powerful engine and basically the only thing equal to it would be a the Dodge 5.7 hemi or the Chevy 6.2. Think I'm hooked on the SR5 upgrade package forever. That gives you the 38 gallon fuel tank, electric drivers seat, center console w/center console shift/slap stick and it comes with larger tires than a standard SR5. On open highway I get 19 MPG and around town it's 16-17 depending on traffic lights/start/stop driving. All the magazines/car site reviews say the truck's outdated, that's total BS. If you want the best truck, with the best reliability, the most powerful standard engine and the highest resale value, buy a 5.7 Tundra. It will yank any chevy 5.2, ford 5.0 or eco-boost around like its a rag doll. Not sure about a 5.7 dodge hemi, that would be who gets the jump!

Very reliable pickup
Not as modern technology size as other pickups and not as high a MPG but extremely reliable. Some safety features that should be standard are not. In light of the height of the truck should ycome with side steps. However the overall vehicle is a pleasure to own and I frequently am asked by other truck owners about features and complimented on its appearance and storage space. Owners manual could be better and would be nice to have on DVD. Seating sized for big people. Dash lighting is poor for old guys like me for day driving. Numbers need brighter range.
