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.

This has been a great truck for all around use (family, hauling, towing). Owned a Ford prior and there is no comparison - the Tundra is far superior quality, design and workmanship.

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.
Remarkable truck!

I picked up my 2004 Tundra Double Cab SR5 V8 3 weeks ago. It had 24k miles on it and is in excellent condition in and out. I was able to work the dealer over on the price, and got it for exactly what I was willing to pay. Two grand under KBB. I would like to share my initial impressions. First, the truck's ride is extraordinary. It is smooth and extremely quiet. It rides like a Lexus. The handling is nice, but somewhat loose. It is no effort to carry on a low conversation with backseat passengers at highway speed. Controls are in easy reach and the JBL stereo sounds great. Doors close with a solid thump that inspires a secure feeling. Best ext. styling in it's class, IMO. Would buy again.
Very Happy

I am very happy with my 04 tundra. It has great reliability, fun to drive. I was disappointed with the horsepower on the 04's but it still gets up and goes. I was happy to see that they ramped up the HP on the 05's. I am extremely happy with the redesigned cargo space in the bed and that is has a deeper design. I also enjoy the back window that rolls all the way down. All in all I have no complaints about this truck and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a well built, reliable, and economical truck.
