Was leaking transmission fluid pretty badly. Truck had no rust and was clean otherwise.

Pulls great love the truck roomy and very dependable

Has an annoying rattling noise at about 2000 rpm. I've heard it could be the catelytic converter cover? Pretty solid truck otherwise. Seems to have plenty of power for a V-6 engine and can hold its own pulling a loaded down 6x10 utility trailer.

5.3L V8 has plenty of power. Acceleration is acceptable for a full-size pickup. Braking is particularly good. Handling is exceptional considering the width and length of the vehicle. The vehicle itself is a quality vehicle. No issues related to build quality. Appearance is, in the only words I can think of, manly. It looks like a pickup a man would drive. Gas mileage is not the best, but considering that it has a 5.3L V8, you should not expect great gas mileage. Currently getting 14.8 MPG. With a 26 gallon (U.S.) fuel tank, you can still get to where you need to go, although the price to fill the pickup can be high. The Active Fuel Management feature, however, is great (switches between 4 and 8 cylinders depending on driving conditions). It's a fun vehicle. Loaded on the inside. I don't have a navigation system primarily because I don't need one. Sound system is great. Although it's a pickup, it doesn't drive like one. My pickup is Stealth Gray in color, and I can tell you that a number of people have asked me where I purchased my pickup simply because of how good my pickup looks. Enough said.

Excellent value, smooth transmission, great power, and the comfort level is phenomenal! Very spacious seating. I traded up from an 03 Tundra Ext-Cab, which is less truck, BUT, its significant for me...because I am a die-hard Totota man!
