Noticed blue smoke on starting and acceleration. Diagnostics done and confirmed scored cylinder. New engine $18,000. Very disappointing as I relied on Toyota reputation for durability.

Typically that’s a by product of a very dirty air filter. I haven’t seen scores on walls at Toyota yet, it was common on Nissans with dirty filters.

Worth a second opinion.

Understanding the 'why' would be important too. Your audience has no clue how the truck has been used or maintained.
