I agree with some of the others, I thought the last generation of Tundras was better looking. Even so, I tried to get a Tundra TRD Pro 4x4 before getting my Ram, even before they hit the lot. I was told it would be a year. The way things have gone, I would still be waiting. I also tried to get a Lightening. That didn't work out either; probably for the best after I saw the towing range tests. Yikes.
This is my first FCA product. My long-time trusted mechanic would have told me not to buy it. Still feels like a dice roll. It is comfortable as heck, looks great and drives nice. Love the range and the mpg.
I came from a Ford Family; I've owned 11 of them including F150's, F250's and an F350. I've also owned multiple Toyotas. I had a 2003 Tundra that I loved loved loved to drive. It was fast and quick and handled well. Had it been big enough, I probably still have it. If a guy can find a clean, low mileage 1st Gen Tundra without rust you might just get a 300-500K mile gem.
All cars and trucks are designed to need repairs; it's called engineered functional obsolescence. It's how the manufacturers, and the dealerships, make money. If you get a 'good one', it will break less. If you get a lemon, well...that just sucks. Most will be average.
I am hoping for average!!
