Turns out, I’m a Toyota guy!

12/21/20 Update; I recently learned something about myself.....I'm an idiot!! I was driving by a car dealership and spotted a really nice looking 4x4 and I bought it. I am now the proud owner of a Dodge Ram 4x4 Megacab with the 5.7 Hemi and I sold my Tundra because it was just sitting in my driveway collecting dust. The good news is, I got $6500 for it with 200 thousand ++ miles on it. Thought I did pretty good there. The bad news is....I sold my Tundra. I am already having mechanical problems with it. Not to mention the numerous recalls. And although I do like that Hemi motor, I didn't realize the 5.7 stands for the mpg you get...on a good day...down hill....etc! I'm headed to the Toyota dealer this weekend to see what I can do to get into a new Tundra. Wish me luck!!! I’ve always been a Chevy guy and at heart I still am. But, this Tundra is a great truck. Wish I had the 5.7l instead of the 4.7 but the 4.7 is still more than what I expected! Bought this truck used about 7 years ago. Longest I’ve ever owned a daily driver / work truck. I have had absolutely zero problems with it! Even the normal wear and tear maintenance on it is extremely minimal. I see other reviews here that mention lack of towing/ pulling power. I respectfully disagree! Specs say it pulls a max of 4700 to 5000....I pull a 6000lb+ travel trailer with very little effort. You can definitely feel it back there, but even with the 4.7l, it’s not struggling!! I was looking into getting a newer truck recently, but I believe I’m going to invest the money into this Tundra and do some custom work to it. If you have the opportunity to buy it....buy it!!! The $$$ you’ll save on maintenance and repairs will help it pay for itself..........sorry, Chevy! Keep in touch.

I should preface with this by saying I'm a car nut and scare people with my knowledge of cars and trucks. I looked at all of the full size pickups before deciding on the Tundra. It hasn't let me down but I'm getting tired of the $70 fill ups. The concept for the all new Tundra is a little scary. If you want a Tundra and can afford the gas get one now! FYI- the Double Cab has more headroom than the other Tundras. I had a 97 F150 and this thing blows it away. You can't beat Toyota trucks for resale either. I practically had to give my F150 away and I was glad to see it go.

Very becoming lines. Sits high on 17 inch wheels/Michelins with heavy duty tow package. 2 wheel drive with stability control (like positraction). Great towing power, traction and stability in a 2 wheel drive. Ride is firm and well-dampened. Feels great fully loaded, towing, and empty. Excellent interior appointments. Very high build quality.

purchased a new 04 d- cab w\ aftermarket perf. tires & wheels. The foot print of the tires is so great that the veh. follows the road surface and pulls you into the opposing lanes of traffic. Met with the dist. rep. regarding this matter and was advised there was nothing that could be done to resolve this matter. I was never advised by the salesman nor the manager of this issue with these tires, if I had been I would not have pur. the veh. due to my family using this veh. as a primary mode of transport.

Is This The Best The Auto Industry Has?

We purchased a new Toyota Tundra 4Dr. crew cab SR5 April 04. Pros: Very comfortable long distances and handles well on the freeways. And that is all I can say good about it. Cons: Under 1000 miles it started to howl at 45MPH, Toyota replaced the differential unit at 6000 miles but the howl remained unresolved. The EPA freeway is 18(16- 20). I have been lucky to get 15 MPG on near flat desert with cruise from gas station to gas station. Others have stated they get 19-21 in my area and some are 4x4s. We looked at all the crew trucks and read the reviews on them. We must say that the best in the industry has been disappointing. I expected better from Toyota, after all the testimonials.
