Used 2006 Toyota Tundra Consumer Reviews
All around
Very good all around truck. I use as only vehicle, nice on road, hauls boxes at work, pulls trailer, and best of all, it is very capable off road.
Tundra DR5 access cab V^
I bought this truck new in 2006. It has an oil leak that was suppose to be fixed under warranty. I never received a notice and the dealer conveniently waited until after the warranty to run out to inform me? I never got it fixed and the leak has not gotten any worse. I have never done anything but change the oil, two front break jobs, replaced the Rack and Pinion boots, they were cracked, changed the plugs twice, had the automatic transmission fluid changed at 100K. . Other than that it has been a stealer pickup. Easy to work on so far and always reliable. I would not trade it for a new one. I pull a 3400 lb. pop up camper with it. Have pulled the pop up with it about 20K with no problems what so ever. Update 3/13/2021. Just put in new KYB shocks on the front struts, replaced the stabilizer bar mounts. Replaced the rear shocks. Replaced the u-joints. Amazing ride, just like new. Only problem is I took it in for an airbag recall and they screwed up my vent system. The dealer will not fix their screw up???? So I will have to tear into it. Update 3/15/2023. No problems what so ever. 180,000 miles. I bought a 20 ton press at Harbor freight. I pressed in new front wheel bearings, this was just preventative maintence.

Great Truck, Poor MPG
Bought this truck just over a yr ago, changed the plugs and air filter, but still can not get over 13.9 on a trip straight through driving. Got as low as 10 mpg 4 wheel drive winter city driving, I average 12.5 mpg :(
Great Truck
I agonized of my choice between the Chevy Silverado and Toyota Tundra. I have driven chevy's for years, however I am more than happy with my choice of the Toyota Tundra. It is a great ride. It handles well and has adequate cabin space. I am a big guy and I fit very comfortably in the driver seat. The rear roll down window is a plus. The pay load and towing ability is satisfactory, it fits my families needs. Toyota service is second to none. Can improve gas mileage and storage space. I think you will love this truck.
My 2006 Tundra
My 2006 Toyota Tundra is a great truck. It is much easier to drive than a F-150. It has a super charged 282 horsepower. With a 7100 pound towing capacity. It will deliver about 325 pounds torque. This truck is incredibly smooth. One thing the Tundra lacks is towing and horsepower. I hope to drive out my Tundra to at least 100000 miles. Then I will trade it in for a 07 Tundra truck
