2006 Toyota Tundra SR5 4dr Double Cab 4WD SB (4.7L 8cyl 5A)

I purchased my Tundra in 2008 and could not be happier with my purchase. I've owned the Ford, Chevy, Dodge and Nissan trucks before this one and those trucks are not even playing the same game as the Tundra in terms of dependability and quality. In my opinion when it comes time to replace this truck, in the year 2026, I will only be looking at another Tundra. Having this truck for 11 years and putting over 100,000 miles on it without so much as an unexpected clunk or rattle has been an enjoyable experience. I live up in the hills as we call them around here and travel 50:50 between country roads and town driving. It will plow through 8 inches of snow on the road without blinking and then travel on the highways for a 2,000 mile trip with the best of them. The double cab offers lots of room, even for adult passengers in the rear. I tow 7,000 lbs regularly with this truck and put a ton of wood pellets in the bed six times a year with no issue. If there is a weak spot on the truck it would be the factory exhaust, the Upstate New York winter's are not kind to the underside of any vehicle and the exhaust has suffered. That truly is the only negative I have to say about my over a decade with my truck. If you are looking for a truck with high maintenance costs and unreliability; look somewhere else.

Have the 2006 Toyota Tundra Limited. Best truck. Comfortable, fun to drive, luxury interior, and solid reliability. The truck has 100,000 miles on it and no problems whatsoever. Maintenance is cheap. MPG isn't great, but it is a truck with V8 power. Solid offroader, great for firewooding and hunting. You won't find a better value. This truck defensibly definitely beats the American competitors.

Drives and rides like a car not a truck... but if you want that ride just change the shocks and tires.
It's big, it's long, and you're gonna love it.

The double cab gives this truck a very long wheelbase which is great for ride comfort, but bad for turning radius. Also, it makes the truck heavy, so fuel economy takes a bit of a hit. Probably between 16 and 17 MPG on average. Some of the radio controls became "wonky" or uncooperative with age. If you're the "do-it-yourself" type, some standard maintenance tasks are pretty simple on this truck. I replaced the serpentine belt in about 15 minutes having never done one before, and I also replaced the front brake pads and rotors in an afternoon. (I tried to get the rotors turned, but they just needed to be replaced, so that ate up some time.) For auto-mechanic ability, I'm probably about a 5, but these jobs were easier than I expected.

I bought this truck new. It now has 87K miles on it and it has never had anything done but oil service. Very dependable and sharp truck. My only compliant is it gets poor fuel mileage and the turning radius is terrible. Bottom line it looks great and never breaks down.
