Default Engine RPM's drop too low After hard acceleration

I have on a couple of occasions felt and watched my RPM's drop way too low ~5-600 after a hard accelaration. It usually happens when letting off just after a shift. I realize the computer is probably not reacting fast enough, but wanted to know if everyone else is experiecing this condition. Thanks for any input.

I've never watched mine, but I will now. Why is 5-600 RPM too low? Enquiring minds want to know.

Mine idles around 500-600 rpm warm no matter how I drive and around 700-800 rpm at idle I think. I never really noticed a difference in rpm levels though after a full throttle run but then again I don’t do full throttle runs that much either. I don’t need too!

To make you feel better. Mine idles in "D" at 400rpm and 550 in "N". I've watch my rpm numerous times and do noticed what you mentioned. I see it when I accellerate and then brake to come to a stop and just before it gets below 4-5mph my rpm drops down to 350 to 400rpm then when the truck comes to a complete stop the rpm raise back up to 450rpm and clowl drops to 400rpm in "D". I think it's normal. Never has the engine chug or shake at that low of an rpm though.

Clean the throttle body. This "dip" in RPM will go away and be less noticeable.

2000s idle about 100-150rpm lower than 2001-up Tundra V8s

Also, the tach is not all that accurate at low speeds. On FYR145s 2000, with the tach indicating around 450-500 rpm an OBD-II scan tool showed the RPM was actually 600...
