Opinions on the 4.6 Liter Tundra?

I’ve heard some favor the 4.6 over the 5.7 because some of the 5.7s develop costly oil leaks due to a factory gasket issue. However, the 4.6s don’t have that problem.

I have a 5.7 that has developed the leaks. It was a $6k repair at a dealer, but thankfully it was covered under an extended warranty.

@Finnley
If you’re talking about the cam tower leak, that can happen in both engine sizes. It happened to my 2014 4.6 around 90k.

Mine has absolutely zero power compared to my 2019 V8. I really dislike this thing. I stomp on the pedal and it takes a full second before anything happens. It feels like going from 55 to 80 in five years.

@Ashton
What year is yours? I assume you mean you have the 4.6? My Tundra (2020, 5.7) has sluggish issues due to changes they made to the pedal. But stomping on it really gets it going!

A gas guzzler and harmful to the planet. If you’re using it for work, great, but if not, consider a vehicle with better fuel economy and lower emissions.

We’re talking about trucks here, you weirdo.

I have a truck that I only drive when it’s necessary. The rest of the time, I drive a hybrid sedan. My comments about the Tundra and trucks, in general, were relevant. Name-calling is juvenile.

Oh cool, I drive my truck every day, getting 16 mpg, while my hybrid RAV4 sits in the garage because the truck is simply more fun to drive.

My RAM gets 16.5, but my Camry Hybrid gets about 43.
