Comments by "volvo09" (@volvo09) on "Should You Buy a 2022 Toyota Tundra? or keep the old V8 one?" video.
Yep, as much as I'm fine with modern tech, the simplicity of a standard engine is always superior... Even if the turbos NEVER have a problem, the added hoses and piping adds time to maintenance. I almost bought a 21 tundra, but ended up going with a used turbo f150. I just couldn't justify the fuel economy, even though I knew I was passing up a superior truck for longevity and complexity. My 01 tundra gave a great 300k miles till it rotted away.

@coloradoboo1071 it does, you can download maps also (which I have done) I still like my integrated nav as backup.

It's silly I'm glad ford dosen't do it on the lower trim models. I have a 2.7 f150 and when I test drove it I was waiting for the fake sound that everyone laughs at, but it dosen't have any... Just standard quiet v6 sound with a bit of turbo "vacuum cleaner" sound. (Imagine a 4 cylinder with v8 sounds, haha)

I'm waiting to see what happens to those (in all brands) as they age. It's not uncommon to see the radio screens stop working and develop horizontal or vertical lines all over it, and I bet that'll be happening to these digital dashes too. Not a big deal if it's diy swappable though. Junkyards are still going to be around. Hopefully they're swappable with used parts without a reprogram.

@coloradoboo1071 it is, but built in nav is still a great backup. I live where there can be no cell svc for 50 miles... It's nice to have the built in nav for backup, especially on the dirt roads. If your phone acts up it's also another backup. Just like having the phone be your only car key, it's not my cup of tea to over rely on the thing.
