Nicely appointed & blazing fast
This is an upgrade from a 2017 Tundra SR5 and the engine and transmission are much changed. The twin turbo V6 is blazing fast but the mileage is not much improved from the old V8. Biggest complaint is there is no way to step into the truck bed without purchasing the optional bed steps which are standard on every other pickup out there. Also you won't know until taking delivery that you only get one key fob due to the chip shortage. I've asked Toyota several times for a delivery date for the 2nd key but they are evasive. If you lose the key and you aren't in the dealer's parking lot you are screwed.

only good looks
80,000.00 dollar mistake, Always had Toyotas and absolutely loved them, have a 2013 Avalon awesome car ! Retired from the Fire Service after a 45 year career that's when I wanted to buy a Toyota truck to travel in. Saw a 2023 Toyota Tundra black 1794 edition black, absolutely beautiful, fabulous interior, had to have it and ordered one. If I had had a couple of weeks to REALY look it over and drive it, it would have been sitting back on their lot. The truck is almost all plastic I live on the Gulf Coast of Alabama where the intense heat of summer is starting to warp certain parts of it, terrible gas mileage 16.7 never been above that and they say up to 24 MPG on sticker. wind noise on passenger side front door, paint extremely thin and scratches easily and shows up really well with a white undercoating. When the tailgate is down there is no step ( plastic bumper is poping loose at the ends as well now. I carry a small step ladder in the bed of the truck so I can SAFELY get in the back. I was always told to have your vehicle under control at all times, not with this one ! With only 8000 miles driving on this abomination the safety devices have caused me to have some very close calls with having a serious accident. This corrective steering is dangerous, and the cruise control I no longer use because several times it slowed me down and people have on several occasions have almost rear ended me. We have a farm and have a lot of tall grass but can't use it in the fields because the sensors detect the grass as something solid the truck slams on the brakes when trying to back up. Defiantly not a farm truck. Plastic interior sctraches easy and the carpet if you can call it that is nothing but fuzz glued on a thin fabric which after a couple of vacuuming starts to chafe up. Has been several recalls one came just the other day. Took it for its first servicing showed them the on button for the radio was broken they said we will have to order a new radio, showed them the loose antenna on top of the truck they said they have to order a new one, on the wind noise they said I would have to get that looked at when they get the other parts in. That was 4 Months ago. Super super disapointed ! For 45 years I was a firefighter ( I drove a Ladder Truck ) and never had a wreck but if I was to keep this truck its only a matter of time and they tell me if I take these so called safety features off it would void the warranty. At this point I drive it very little about one tank load of fuel a month and mostly use my 2013 Toyota Avalon with 250,000 miles (and no problems ) back in the day when reliability was Toyota. To sum it all up, outstanding looking exterior and interior my analogy is, its like falling in love with a super beautiful curvaceous woman but on the inside she's DERANGED. P.S. If anyone wants to buy a low milage beautiful truck drop me a line.
What happened Toyota?
After owning four Tundras, a 2002, 2007, 2016, and the 2023, I can confidently say Toyota has really messed up a once great truck. Went so far to trade mine for a new GMC Sierra (excellent truck so far after 21,000 miles). I had never ending issues with my Tundra. The interior quality is subpar at best, the paint chips just looking at it the wrong way, the techy stuff is buggy and glitchy, and absolutely awful fuel economy. All in all a massive disappointment. We’re just a half Toyota family now as my Wife still loves her 4Runner. Buying a new Tundra? Well, you’ll make new friends at the local Toyota service department!

Multiple issues right away
This is my third toyota truck and only one I've had issues with. It has a hesitation when accelerating from a stop or rolling stop. Dealer says I just have to wait for an update. Windows have intermittent issues going up and down. Back up camera is distorted. Android auto very buggy. 3 recalls already
