Thanks for reminding me to give my 5.7 V8 a hug

300 trucks.
Ford has had more than 300 f250/350s show up new at dealers with grinding diffs in the last 7 days. And yet, no recall
If I were to buy new fullsize... It'd still have to be a tundra.
I can assure you of one thing, no one is more pissed off about these recalls than Toyota. I don't even think the money matters to them at this point. Those Japanese guys are furious they gave up the 20 years of good will they built for some 5 micron debris in the engine.

I toured a Toyota plant a few months ago and the American ones have the same attitude, they are pissed they’re getting compared to the three on quality. There’s not a soul at that company that wanted the turbo V6. Everyone has their reasons for hating democrats, mine is not getting to see what Toyota could cook up with the next decade’s technology without a fleet emissions hand tied behind their back.

Mine has 25k miles on the new engine in it from the recall, I’m assuming it’s good and not included in this.
Still never had an issue with it.

If they sort it out, I might be a customer for a Lexus LX - but they're just as likely to discontinue that one, too.

That's not the milestone you think it is. Let us know when it reaches 225 k miles. It won't.

Did I say it was? 75k on the truck. Never had the 1st issue.
I’d rather have a Toyota who is quick to issue a recall as opposed to GM whose recall on their 6.2l is to replace the oil unless the engine has blown up already…

Me too. I got rid of my Sierra 6.2l after the engine was replaced. I have a Toyota 5.7 with 90k. It'll last forever.

Me over here with the Titan with 226k miles.

Meanwhile, Ford and even Dodge can make a turbo motor that doesn’t eat itself.
True engineers thrive meeting regulations and fitting within the requirements.
Nobody bought their old 5.7 because it drank gas and wasn’t fast.
Toyota worked with Ford on the TTV6 and hybrid idea, broke it off with Ford to do their own thing and didn’t do it near as well. Whatever the hell is wrong with their manufacturing process isn’t anyone’s fault besides theirs.
They’ve been making engines and Turbo engines just as long and successfully as anyone else. They just need to get their shite together.

Name one released in the US.
This doesn't count, it was never released here.

The Barra is cool I’m sure but Ford has made millions of Ecoboosts and Dodge’s Hurricane? I6 is the modern equivalent of a Barra or a 2JZ or a B58 hooked up to a fantastic ZF 8 speed.
Toyota cheaped out in some area(s) of their newest engines and have seemingly failed to fix that issue. Nobody’s fault but their own.

Your statement was that they make boosted engines which don't eat themselves.
That is false.
While I love the 2.7 and 3.5, in no way shape or form are they consistently repair free high mileage engines.
Hell, I would argue percentage wise that even Toyotas failure of a boosted motor likely sees a greater rate of high mileage motors.

I’ve put 125k+ miles on 2 different 3.5 Ecoboost F150s with Zero repairs, only oil changes and filters. Don’t know anyone that’s had any issues with theirs.
ETA: all while getting 19.5 lifetime MPG on the first one and 22.5 MPG on the second one on regular gas.
Can’t say the same for a few different GM 6.2s owners that had their valve train eat itself and Lemon out a brand new Tahoe.
