I bought this truck with 19k on it, it now has 55k,it has been great, only problem was a tire sensor went out, i tow a 6500 lb travel trailer with it and it does well, works, but does the job, only problem is it gets about 10 mpg towing the trailer. comfort, style and power, it has it all.

Love the interior and truck size. Hate the mileage. Extremely poor for a small V8. Poor workmanship. never expected a recall from a Toyota. Tire wear was excessive.

Purchased truck with 65,500 miles on it and replaced two small dash bulbs and compass, but extended warranty took care of that. Other than that, the dash will rattle a little when cold, but truck is VERY sound. Power is very much still there with the 4.7 V8. I owned a (NEW) 2004 Chevy Suburban 4x4 and had 14 problems within 18 months of purchase. I'll definitely buy another Tundra!

FRAME WILL RUST!!!!

Folks, Toyota trucks have been plagued with frame rust issues! I purchased this truck because Toyota inspected the framed, deemed it ok and then sprayed the frame to prevent any future issues. On 09/07/17 while driving through town, the frame BROKE! The truck thankfully dove into a vacant parking lot. I had the truck towed to the nearest Toyota dealer. They said I was on my own and the bill would be $10,000-$12,000! The only way to get assistance on this is to file a class action law suit. It worked in the past, but takes years and money! Save yourself some trouble, money and heartbreak! DO NOT BY ANY TOYOTA TRUCK!!!

I have been a GM buyer since 1987 (6 trucks). I purchased the Tundra with moon roof, navigation, leather and sport package (21" Rims). I looked at GM, Ford and Nissan and there was a clear decisive answer when completing the pros and cons list that most logical personalities perform. The handling, safety, amenities, predicted reliability, comfort, and eye appeal makes the Tundra the top truck. I don't find myself needing to tow over 7100 lbs, but this appears to be the only significant advantage the Titan has over the Tundra. For me, it was between the Titan and the Tundra. With over 200 problems for every 100 Nissan autos off the show floor was the nail in the coffin. Tundra is my #1 pick!
