When I was shopping for trucks I was driving a Ford F-150 “2011”. This is the first Toyota I have owned. The dealer did informed me that the Tundra was a nice truck, built well, but gas mileage was poor. When I drove the truck the impression I felt was this is a solid truck! For the first 3000 miles my average mileage was 12.7 mpg around 5000 miles the average is now 15.6. My hi-way mileage is around 17.8 mpg @ 70mph and is 15 mpg @ 85mph (live in Montana). I always receive a compliment about the ride a feel of the truck from my passengers. I enjoy driving the truck and would not think twice about purchasing the truck again.

Purchased as a tower, hauler, and family vacation vehicle. The Limited is luxury enough, but not over the top. It has a power slide moon roof and power rear window making this seem like an open air jeep when we want to. This will be incredibly fun for beach trips when we drive the beach. The crewmax is huge and comfortable for all 5 passengers. The limited leather is good quality and easy to clean. The controls and buttons are simple and easy to use, also feel sturdy. I have heard of complaints about the infotainment system's visibility, but I have not experienced that problem. My driving impressions are positive. The engine is powerful and the 6 speed transmission is well matched. Acceleration is spot on. Steering is good with decent feel and excellent turning radius. The exhaust note is nice with the TRD performance exhaust. The only downside is gas mileage. It has met the 13/17 MPG in my driving the truck 3000 miles. But, to get better mileage it would have meant going to a different brand that would have cost more money for the same trim level. I am hoping that Toyota reliability and value retention will make up for the increase in gasoline costs. My thought is it will. In closing, this vehicle was purchased as a utility vehicle that will meet our family needs. So far it is very competently doing its job. 8 month update. No problems to report. Functions for me as expected. No complaints. Still very comfortable to drive. Easier to maneuver and park with 8 months experience. Love this truck, plan to keep a very long time. 3 year update. Still loving this truck. No problems. Still does what I want it to do. Gas mileage is 15 mpg on average. I have gotten over 18 mpg on highway trips. Interior and exterior holding up well. Have only done routine maintenance, no repairs. I would definitely buy again, however I am keeping this one for a long time. At 40,000 miles, still trouble free. Just basic maintainence. Will need front brakes soon. New tires probably at 50k. Love this truck.

Since I was 18 years of age I have owned two new Dodge 2500, three new Nissan Titans. Small and mid-sized: new Chevy Colorado Z71, new Mazda B2000, new Dodge D-50, new Mitsubishi Macro-Cab, and a new Isuzu 'Hombre'. Now, I own a 2017 Toyota Tundra 1794 Edition. Without question, the Mitsubishi was the most reliable pickup I've ever owned, and after putting 330,000 miles on it. My Son and I changed the timing chains, and tyranny bearings SO HE COULD DRIVE IT FOR ANOTHER 45,000!!!! The Dodge 2500 (2008) was the biggest price of junk I have ever purchased. Chevy showed me just how bad customer service could be. I have a very strong affection for the Nissan Titan, in that they are comfortable and easy to drive, but the acoustic deadening is non-existing and the wind noise is extremely irritating. So far the Toyota is very quiet, comfortable and has that throaty growl (after I installed the TRD dual exhaust package) and extremely quick! There are some items the Tundra doesn't have that I enjoyed on the Titans, and ergonomically it is behind some of the other brands. However, one of the biggest reasons I purchased my Toyota was the resale value. It's nice to have all the Truck world has to offer on your ride, but paying for it again in the end is not a very smart way to purchase.........and there is a good reason for the high retainage of value as the years of ownership pass bye..........Toyota builds a better truck.

Best engineered truck that I have ever owned. Great driver sitting position and visibility. Strong motor and nice equipment level. The need for a higher trim level to get auto on lights is a bit silly

This is now my second tundra. I liked my first one so much I bought a second one. I think is a truck that does just about everything (except fuel economy) pretty damn well. It's not class leading in most respects but it does everything well. My last tundra had exceptional reliability only repair it had was a water pump replaced under warranty @ 80k miles. So far my 17 has been perfect as it should be sense it only is 2 years old at this point. If you want a truck that gets the best mpg, look else where, if you want massage seats look else where. If you want a reliable truck that's a strong preformer while maintaining expetional reliability the tundra may be the truck for you.
