Used 2006 Toyota Tundra Limited 4dr Double Cab 4WD SB (4.7L 8cyl 5A) Consumer Reviews
OL PHART and his Tundra!
Owned a T-100 SR5 as a dealer offer for a problematic 98 Tacoma lemon. Great truck but the later TUNDRA was THE answer. Now on my 5th Tundra(all have been used buys). 2 Access Cabs(the rear door opening was a pain) and 3 Double Cabs(1 SR5 and 2 LTDs)-always a superb performing tool and toy for fun. Just found the latest Limited with all the options in NYC - 14,000 miles and drives as new as it was only used to drive to church on Sundays. For those hauling/towing a load-yes-the 07 and newer do the job better but for a roomy truck(no towing) that rides/drives like a luxury vehicle on the highway/none better. The rule is how much FUN do you want to have and HOW MUCH are you willing to pay for that FUN! Some want a Porshe-some a RAM/F150/SILVERADO. The 06 TUNDRA DOUBLE CAB 4WD LIMITED is my FUN and does it extremely well as it was the last year of that body style. Air bag recall a noted problem but not TOYOTA's fault-Takata's fault! Just wished I would have bought one new in 06! So choose wisely on YOUR version of FUN! And enjoy the RIDE!!!

Love my Tundra!
I purchased my Tundra used with 36,000 miles 9 years ago and I have added almost 200,000 miles since picking her up. I switched to synthetic fluids immediately. She has been used for everyday driving, family trips, heavy payloads, and having people move. The wife and I just took a 5,200 mile road trip and visited 3 national parks on and off road. Only minor issues I have had is that my valve cover gasket was replaced once at 200,000 mile mark, which took care of a small oil leak and the front ball joints were recently replaced. Beyond that... just the basic maintenance. I tell folks that she is my convertible truck. With all five driver, passenger, and rear windows down, plus the large moon-roof opened I have the best 4x4 luxury convertible bar none. I look to keep her in the family as long as possible.

Solid Truck.
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.
Best Overall Large Truck
Tremendous quality in design and manufacturing. High reliability.
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 :(
