Great Truck. Easy To Maintain And Drive. — The Toyota Tundra is a great truck. I am going to buy another one only with a full back seat. In my line of work, I really need more room in the back inside the cab. Toyota has been a good line for me.

Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.)

Would Buy Again. — This truck has perfect get up and go. It gives everythig a V8 should and more. The build is stable with a comfortable ride and low vibrations. We have had to make no repairs. The apperance is good with quality paint and body. Surprisingly the gas mileage is good getting an average of 16 in town and 22 on the highway. I love driving this truck not only for the looks but for the power under the hood. It's perfect for fun and work.

4x2 suspension setup and that TRD dif and engine setup

Cons

The cracked windshield

35

Amazing — Performance: Top notch 4.7 Liter V8 Build Quality: The cab could be a bit bigger, but its cool :), the suspension could you some lube and o few tightened bolts here and there, could use some aftermarket exhaust and suspension. Apperance: It's black atm, but going to re-paint it Black again Cost of Ownership: Not real sure, gas is still high though Fun Factor: This car is a BEAST to drive!!

03 Tundra — Great truck. Absolutely loved it. Roomy && had a lot of get up && go in it. 4 wheel drive worked great. Like that it was push button but sometimes it was hard to get out of 4wheel. Smooth ride through.

Pros

Roomy and Comfortable, V8, JBL Synthesis out of the Factory, Personal Upgrades, Toyota...

Cons

Not 4WD (I've gotten stuck a few times), back seat, and guzzles gas (but not nearly as much as other V8s I've gotten 18 mpg highway before, most can only get about 14 highway)

25

Awesome — I wish mine was a 4WD but otherwise it's very nice. I've got leather interior with a JBL Synthesis Factory upgrade (JBL Factory speakers w/ a factory amp) but I'm going to rip that out and install all JBL Power series sometime soon. Roomy interior, unless you're in the back seats... but still manageable, unlike ford or dodge. Black with chrome highlights, chrome nerf bars, Rhino-lining, Altezza Taillights, V8, and it's a Toyota. As long as you keep up the regular maintenance it'll last over 400,000 miles (I have a friend who has one like that)

Overall Fun Truck To Drive, But Ride Quality Sucks By Jonathan

The Tundra is a decent truck, but the ride quality absolutely sucks. Adding a TRD rear sway bar does help, but around 60 mph or faster it has bad bed/rear axle hop. The cab has plenty of room to have ... Read More
