This is the best truck for a retired guy I've ever seen. If I still worked I'd want an 8' bed but now it's just right. If things continue like they have so far I'll probably keep it until I die and they can bury me in it.

It rides and drives like a car . Smooth and quiet I really like that .It will carry about anything you load in the bed. It's just a very good truck thats all.

Poor Brakes

Toyota for whatever reason installed rear drum brakes on this truck and they don't work! I have already replaced the front brakes once and they are going to need replaced again soon and the rear brakes are like new. Why? I use this truck off road and get in mud and water, the self adjusters for the brakes rust and don't work where as if it had rear disk brakes they would work fine. The Tundra and all off-road trucks and suv's should have a switch to disengage the anti-lock brakes for off road use. If you try to stop in mud at slow speeds while going down grade the anti-locks keep grabbing and letting go but will not grab long enough to dig into the mud to stop you.

I have had no regrets buying this truck and get many compliments on it. After 2 years truck is very solid and gas mileage is not too bad for a large vehicle (I get 17 mpg hwy/cty combined). Was very pleased with crash test results compared to other trucks. Only problems to mention are weak and easy to warp brake rotors (I am very easy on the brakes too!), plastic trim piece that houses radio, etc. that pops and makes noise when it is cold, some valve train noise when cold (typical japanese), and a squeaking noise from somewhere under the hood when cold. Most of these are not terrible things but ones I have noticed over time.

After being a lifer Chevy/Ford person, my wife bought a Camry and we've been hooked on Toyota since. I spens a lot of time looking around at the Big 3 and decided to go with the Tundra and I'm glad I did. It has been rock solid...no problems, good power, handles great. I don't use 4WD much other than the winter, but it is nice to have. The brakes seem fine to me, I was surprised to see others complaining about them. I've had heavy loads in the bed, it sagged down low as expected but took it fine. I'd recommend this to anyone.
