There are a couple recent threads on that Tundra model. Scroll down a few pages for thread recommendations after reading comments here. More the merrier.

Congratulations on a great truck. You're going to love it, I promise.

For oil & filter, didn't we talk about this already?

Check the owners manual for required approvals. You have to go out of your way today to find a bad oil. Filter? OEM.

NAPA synthetic on sale now. Hard to beat $16.99/5 QT

OEM filter and oil is oil with the proper ratings from a major oil company

I have a 2013 Tundra with 101 K on it. Mine has the 4.6 though. Great truck. I've used many different oils. Mobil, QSUD, Pennzoil Platinum. I just changed it last week and am now running Rotella Gas Truck 5w20 as I have a bunch from the Autozone clearance. It's easy on oil. Rarely do I have to add any. I also change it at about 7000 miles.
As for a filter every OC I've used OE from the dealer except once. One time I used a filter from Autozone. Around 5 bucks for the OE filters.
Good luck with it!

How do you know how much towing was involved ?

When are you planning on doing the timing belt?

That's easy...

Never!

At least, that's my plan, since this engine has a chain, I sure hope it's never...

 

[Speak2Mountain]

Getting it delivered tomorrow. The Coroller Virus precludes going to dealer

 

[Speak2Mountain]

Not gonna do it

Prolly 500 to 1000 lbs every 6 mos. Very little

Reliable as a hammer! Having said that...my sons TRD is the hardest riding 1/2 ton pickup I have ever driven.

They are a heavy duty half ton!

No timing belt on the 5.7's, but the cam towers leak and that is a lot more expensive than doing the timing belt on a 4.7.

a friend has a 2013 and he loves it ,closing in on 300K and still runs great

Factory Toyota filter and your choice of synthetic 0w20, 5w20, 0w30, or 5w30. In other parts of the world the 5.7L engine is or was offered in the Lexus LX570. In some of these countries 5w30 is the recommended oil. I'm currently running Mobil 1 EP 5w20.
