Selling off a newer vehicle with a loan to pay cash for an older, more reliable vehicle. I support this.
Why would you have a loan on another veichle to begin with 🤦♂️
Yes!!
@@juanramirez5817 nothing wrong with a cheap, low apr loan. We been through this already, ugh!
AGREED 👍
@@Arcticfox7 Ideally you just invest in an index fund and you end up paying less before your purchase instead of more after the purchase.
Almost 394k miles and my ‘05 is still kickin
I hope I can make mine last that long (and longer!) I'm at 234k miles
160K on mine she’s still a baby haha just replaced the LBJs and tie rods on the fronts she rides pretty now
270k here on my 05 TRD 4x4 Crew Cab. Water pump/timing belt/ front end suspension rebuild, new radiator, new AC compressor/condenser and fan clutch (last week) but otherwise it's rolling strong. I really want to get at least 350-400k on this thing before I even think of getting a new truck.
That truck will roll forever! I have a 2005 Tundra that is getting very close to 300,000 miles with no issues. I really love my truck!
those were the best years made prob 05 do u ever change transmission fluid or still orig? i had old camry over 300k
Mine has 150k it just began its journey
I bought a 2005 V8 tundra access cab off the showroom floor. I knew it was going to be an investment I wouldn’t regret. Now more than 19 years later I’m still glad I made the right decision because I told myself I was going to retire with it. Great truck!!
😎
Best truck on the planet
My '06 now has 537k. Still on the original engine, and transmission.
I hv an 06 with 312,000 n I’m hoping to get that far, anything I should look out for?
@@ocularpressure4558 My differential failed right before hitting 500K. Other than that, no major repairs. Mainly routine maintenance stuff that typically wears out like brakes, suspension components, ujoints. I've had to have the front crank seal replaced, twice. Just about to reach 545k now.
i have a 2001 Tundra TRD SR5 (original owner) with 332k miles on it... Still going strong... Everything is stock on my truck . I do like the wheels on his truck...
My 04 Tundra is now over 242k miles. Still runs smooth, has the same power and fuel mileage as when new.
That's funny, I just bought the exact same truck in a 2005 with 109,000 miles. Newsflash: the first gen Tundra has a much better powertrain than the current Tacomas and are very similar in size.
100% agree.
Sold my 2017 Tacoma TRD Off road and got me a 2004 Tundra 4.7L with 93k miles last year for 11k
@@ChasingTheDream87 do you miss having a locking differential?
How's the turning radius ?
I have a 2004 sr5 with 130,000 miles and it runs great. I keep it parked in the shed most of the time and drive my Corolla. I got the timing belt changed about 20 thousand miles and 4 years ago. When I need it it cranks right up and just goes. Everytime I think about selling it I watch these videos and remember why I still have it. I have been offered $12 thousand for it but I always say no..lol
I paid $12,500 for an '03 Tundra Limited with 170K miles. Only issue was swaybar links needed replacing. I think you would regret selling it.
My 2005 tundra sr5 4.7 4x4 has 317k still going strong
How many miles are on it now and have you had any engine or transmission issues?
That gen of tundra had frame rot issues and clear coat issues. Solid powertrain though. My dad had one(2001 4.7) and in 225k it only ever had a fuel injector, MAF sensor and the fuel pump replaced. Normal maintenance stuff too. brakes, front end, power steering hoses leaked, plugs, serp belt and such. Had the clearcoat peel all up the hood and on the roof and bed sides. It was well maintained with a carwash once a week and full detail. Garaged for 15 of the 20 years he owned it. Interior held up great. He bought a newer one and convinced me(a die hard GM fan) to buy a toyota(2019 tacoma). My last 2 GM trucks cost me a lot of money and proved to be money pits. Happy with the tacoma so far! Especially now that ive moved from Idaho to the Oregon coast. A lot more maneuverable for tight spaces over here.
Frame rot was mainly an issue on the 1st couple of years, Yota made changes in frame distributors after the 1st couple of years. But also depends on geographical location of course (salting of the roads).
I just bought a 2000 Toyota Tundra with the 4.7 and it has 326K runs perfect and shifts great and zero rust where I'm at in Florida!
I have the same year a 2000 with 225k running great !!! Bought it for 2000$ from an older guy not driving it as much
@TV yea I did only thing is I had to take a flight to Seattle to get it and drove it back to San Francisco and let me tell you super solid smooth ride for 14hr drive back!! That’s not bad at all still little bit of cleaning and detailing you should be good! I’ll be posting an update of the truck this Thursday! Come check it out on my channel 💪
How many miles are on it now and have you had any transmission or motor issues?
@@ocularpressure4558 if you are talking about me I've only been on a few camping trip and drive around town so I'm at 328K now and running strong as can be!
@@BriansGarage95 yeah, I was talking about you and your rig. Do you do maintenance to
your transmission? Not flush but do you remove and replace like 4 quarts out of your transmission? It’s been about 100,000 miles for mine. I was thinking maybe I could remove 4 quarts and replace it with Amsoil synthetic transmission fluid what do you think?
I did the same thing. I sold a very modified 2017 Tundra for what I paid new and paid off debt and bought a 2004 Tundra double cab with cash. The 2004 has better interior quality than the 07, 14, and 17 Tundras I’ve owned.
Have you sold the 2004 yet?
@@bravogoldeagle8907 nope
I have a 2001 with 261K on it … still going strong 💪🏾
Brother Matt is Back! Cool Tundra man...can't beat the classics!
He was lurking in the background of the Van trip we took too...
I got a 01 with 130k. 2wd and some rust. But I paid under 5k and it runs out really good. Found a rust free bed for 250. Too far away though dang it.
Right color and everything. I really really like this truck.
proud owner of a 2005 4runner with the 4.7 with 167k. it sounds like its going to last a while. the second gen tundra that went a million miles had the 4.7 V8 btw.
Sold my 2018 tacoma trd 4x4 and bought a single owner 05 tundra double cab. The difference is day and night! The Tundra has more power, space and drives like a truck should. No more gear hunting!!!
I did the same thing 😂 mine was a 2017, got sick of the payments, and the market right now was hot for those trucks so I came out wayyy up and got my Tundra
Got my 2000 v8 Tundra last year with 317k miles on it and it still rides smooth thanks to the previous owner taking really good care of it. My only complaint is that it isnt a 4wd but I also got it for a good deal so I cant really complain there.
I know someone who had an 03 f150 hit 300k. The early 2000's were a great era for trucks
Possibly a Diesel F150 I've been thru 17 Fords and only the Crown vics could get past 200k
@@darthtyranus7683 F150's didn't have Diesel engines from the factory and his had the 2 valve 5.4. Fords are common to make it past 270k easily. I highly doubt you've been through 17
I just got an 06 Access Cab in 2023 with 90k miles. Replaced the brakes, tires, suspension, exhaust, steering rack, timing belt, water pump, axles and headlights. The frame was replaced before I got it. Sprayed the bottom with an oil undercoating and it's getting a new paint job as we speak! I'm excited! Looks practically identical to this only a different color.
I have this same trim and color tundra except its 2003 model with 235k miles on it. Shes still running smooth for an older truck.
2006 tundra trd…214k miles. Besides oil, timing belt, water pump, brakes, and other parts that have to be replaced, never had a problem
I have a 2004 crew cab with 187k miles and absolutely love it! I live in south dakota and I have had no problem starting it in -18 temperatures but I have noticed a knock or probably a piston slap when starting in the cold temperatures.
Do you have a 4WD?
@@thedetective8150 yes sir
@@jtark9341 I traded in mine for a 2008 Sequoia 4x4 and should have kept it. My neighbor is selling his excellent condition 2004 2WD Tundra double cab with 70k miles. He wants $18k, and I offered him $14k, and he's thinking it over. I told him he could borrow it anytime I am not using it. Lol
We recently got the same truck, but an '02, and 2WD. But it has about 340K miles on it. No rust as it's always been an AZ truck. Looks a lot rougher than the one in the video though, unfortunately. Was a work truck before we got it and was rode hard, lol. Needed some hefty repairs, but the engine wasn't one of'em. 😎 It will be hauling our camper, which will be our full time abode, so here's hoping it has a lot of miles left in it. Seems it will!
Great trucks I have a 2006 Tundra double cab I'm coming up to 370,000. And I abuse the hell out of it, change the oil once a year changed my spark plugs at 325,000 and have not changed my timing belt yet.
Timing belt is super important
You are playing with fire on that timing belt. If it fails = time for new engine.
i have 2003 same color with 231k miles runs like a champ
06 2wd dc checking in
Bought it off Craig’s at 136k miles in 2018, going on 238k today
I had to repaint the roof and the hood. They were looking really bad.
A lot of the plastic handles all over the place are stating to wear.
No mechanical or electrical issues at all. Stock engine and trans. No rust.
I’ll probably have this truck until it rots but I’d like to get it to at least 300k myself
It’s been a great company vehicle for us.
Wheel Dimensions and Tire size? Liking the set up. I have an 04 Double Cab Tundra myself, with 257k miles still running strong 💪🏽.
04 Tundra here. Truck is a beast, just goes and goes
Nice truck!
I have a 05 4.0 V6 with a 6 speed MT that was handed down to me from my dad with 275k miles and man its a fucking blast to drive I dont think I’d switch it for just any truck, it’s actually that same color with those exact headlights lol
I have a 2003 tundra TRD 4x4. Yes it has 320k mi still running strong. I added winch bumper, Bilstein 5100s, Oem Balljoints, Redline,Mobil1 synthetics. Oem axles with longer boots, OEM TRD wheels from Tacoma. Not as big as 2nd+ Tundras and almost same size as new Taco. But bigger bed and V8. For my use, this is the perfect size. Has back seats for the grandkids, I camp and mild off road. I would add locker or LSD. Thanks for posting.
I love my 06 DC V8 (I'm a fellow Oregonian/PNW native myself). Best truck Toyota ever built IMO. It's the perfect cross between the modern Tacomas size and a 1/4 Ton Domestic pickups power and load capacity. Only thing I hate is that there's hardly any suspension options for them. OME (which I run on my other 2 Toyotas and ran on all the Cruisers I ran in Australia) doesn't make leaf's for it and it's got nothing like the support that Tacos get despite being more desirable trucks IMO.
Company called DEEVER make a rear leaf spring setup, for these trucks.
2000 land cruiser 4.7 V8 drove to 325k original everything except front differential. Starting to overheat while idling abs light coming on. Idles too long brakes seize. Abs coming on around corners. Took me everywhere more or less. Sold it for 5,000.00 . Now driving 2005 land Rover lr3 HD. 230k still running around. Love the air adjustable suspension.
Really good video. Like that truck.
I have a 2000 SR5 4wd, V8 Tundra, Paint did not survive years of Airport parking, some plastics loosing the battle, Power steering reservoir looking for replacement, Just had the Brake master cylinder go bad, Transmission mode select bracket in steering column did fracture at 170K, Rear leaf springs always weak, replaced Shocks w/ Boge units at purchase in 2007/86K. Radiator failed at 173k, just started leaking at upper broad seal. Was apparently from Colorado, now Tx... limited Rust. 4wd is only on RT side w/ open diffs. 2004 on had better Transmission internals. Front Brakes prone to warping, rears squeal on back up...Driver side, exhaust manifold has slight leak after warm shutdown until re warmup... @ 176K now...13mpg.
I have Toyota Tundra 2003 Gen 1 which I bought in Dec. 2003 and it has 225980.0 mileage on it and it is still running with out a problem. Cosmetic wise is a little bit minimal because I live in Texas and I park my truck outside my garage cuz my son's Toyota MR2 1993 is inside together with my wife GLE350. We are Toyota family as my eldest son has a Toyota 4Runner TRD 2018 and my youngest son has Toyota Tacoma TRD 2018. We love Toyota.
There are a couple 5.7 Tundras with over a million miles now. There also 4.7 with million miles.
These trucks are great! I have a 2006 Tundra just like this one and mine has 320k miles on it. I fully expect it to give me 500k or more.
Tundras run forever. I have a 2007 Toyota Tundra Crew Max with the 5.7 V8. This is the first year with this 5.7 and I only have 110,000 miles on it. This is the best truck I’ve ever owned. Just change the oil and due regular maintenance and your good to go. Tundra FOREVER. 👍
Yeah buddy, nice truck!
Time to update your caption image!
One of the best vehicles ever made
With new truck prices skyrocketing I'm gonna hold onto my 05 Taco and 12 GX460 for as long as I can. Theu both still run great!
My friends great video, better late than never. I myself have that same truck. Only it's a double cab and a 2wd. I will say I gotcha beat on the miles. Let me say this try 371,000 for the miles. I purchased the truck brand new, back in 2004, great dealership still selling Toyotas today, imagine that. Still drive this truck and would not be hesitant to take me and the family cross country in today! Great job
I bought my 04 Tundra new. 2024, 20 years old. 167,000 miles. All of the required maint/services. Even my local Toyota Dealer service Mgr wants to buy it..
I have a 2004 limited toyota tundra double cab with 188k miles! I will be doing alot of upgrades pretty soon!
That is a great standing truck! Love to know the suspension specs.
Just bought a 2006 Toyota Tundra Darrell Waltrip edition with 250,000 miles for 5K. This thing is sweet!
How many miles on it now
@@ocularpressure4558 258,000 miles. Haven’t driven it much.
Add the harsh road salt treatment and I have almost the same truck. I did however have to replace all suspension components front and back, steering rack and AC. Perfect for a weekend truck to scratch in branches.
Love my 03’ SR5 AC. Just hit 120k miles. Same color as the truck in this video.
The second gen tundra that I saw that Toyota bought from the owner was a 2007 and it had the 4.7 v8 with a million miles
If you look there’s actually 3 1,000,000 mile Toyota tundra‘s on TH-cam now
My 04 is at 247k and still runs and drives well.
Just did it with my 4 runner paid me 2000 less than I paid for it three years ago , got 15000 ready to shop!!!!
Actually it's 2 different tundras with the 4.7 liter engine that hit 1 million miles
There are a couple 5.7 Tundras with over a million miles now. Look up Blaine Johnsons million mile.
Brother, my 2006 Tundra has currently 375000 miles with same engine and transmission and looks like it will make it to the million miles.
How many miles Are on it now? I have a 2006 Toyota tundra on the third owner two of my friends owned it before me and it has 312,000 miles on it I have absolutely no issues with it AC still blows cold and I’m gonna try and get it to that million mile mark I was just wondering how many miles is on your vehicle now? And have you had any serious engine or transmission issues with it?
@@ocularpressure4558 sorry for the late answer but yes my 2006 tundra has 325000 miles. And still the same transmission and engine. I have only done the oil change, struds replacement, starter and tune up. But I believe the previous owner replace once the time belt and water pump. According to the dealer I am due for that but I see the truck very strong for another year.
@@JesusMartinez-bx8dh Yes I heard the timing belt and water pump and pulleys have to re-be replaced every hundred thousand miles it’s an interference engine and if the belt snaps the pistons will hit the valves and destroy the engine also if you have a loose steering column shifter mine just broke and it’s $189 dealer only part it’s aluminum and the block is connected to the shifter it comes out is one piece but if it breaks it will be stuck in whatever position it shifted into it the time so if yours is loose she might want to look into it
@@ocularpressure4558 I see brother, absolutely I will get that taken care of asap. I appreciate the advice. Cars last a long time when you take of them. Specially if I want my truck to make it to the million mile. Stay safe and God bless bro!
On FB on the 1st gen page, someone posted a 2003 with 800k mile Tundra and only changed the timing belt 3 times he said.
I was a kid when these were brand new. Tried and true 'Yota trucks! Solid as a rock, even these days! The type that you won't have to worry about beating up and breaking the bank about! That's the way I like it!
Great engine and trans combo. When you change the oil on these stud oil comes out clean. Plus it’s a really smooth engine.
Love my 2006 sr5 tundra. 126000 miles. This truck could last me the rest of my life.
Just bought a clean title 1999 3.4L 4x4 extended TRD Tacoma with 134K miles for $8k for my 16 yr old son. He's learning. Plugs, oil, air filter done 1st week. Next the Tundra brake upgrade and a Trans cooler.
You’re so lucky, I’ve been searching for months
I just picked one up for 2000 with 124000 mile from family friends God bless them
I have a 95 f150 with 5.0 with 336,100 miles original motor, trans and rear end.
I'VE BEEN WANTING A TUNDRA, BULLETPROOF, BUT MY BUDGET SAID 'USED'. THANKS FOR THIS WONDERFUL REVIEW. IT SOLIDIFIES MY CHOICE OF TOY, BUT I NEED A REVIEW OF THE 2ND GEN TOY OR TWI✌ ✌
For what its worth, the "first" million mile tundra was in an early 2nd gen tundra with a 4.7 motor.
Thanks
And considering on and off road use when discussing overall mileage these trucks are amazing
I got one 2006 tundra with 2610000 millas the best. For me.
He'll probably get anywhere fro 500-700K out of that truck.
600K+ easy! I have a co worker with two T100s; one with 260K+ and the other with 350K+. This one should last !
My buddies Dad has an 04 I believe, has around 600k on it lol he just changes oil and air filters and drives the piss out of it daily.
I hit 300K last night on my ‘08 Sequoia, and hoping for at least another 100K.
Gotta be up there for best truck ever made. Wish I could've gotten one before the used truck market just completely exploded.
I just bought one with 195k. I plan on making it to 500k
Cheers, I own 3 one with 866k and STILL CLOCKING. and the other ones with less than 74,000 miles.... SUPER MINT!
Add back the optional wheel wheel flares for that year and save that great finish
that color is solid never get dirty
Hey. I’m driving my brother in law tundra that has 400 thousand miles. Original owner and bought it brand new back in the days.
What year is it? How many miles are on it now and have you had any motor or transmission issues?
@@ocularpressure4558 Year is 2005 and like 410 thousand. Original Engine. V8And still running strong. Only change battery and oil change. 👍
@@user-uq6uy5oe2d so Badass,, nothing today especially Domestic could do that, maybe a Cummins diesel or another tundra lol
I’ve got an 05 with 386k on it and it’s still hanging in there! Going for 500k…
My 06 frame ate itself away. Sad because it only had 143k on the engine and transmission. I loved the size of it. Full replacement for the frame and all the other parts affected was just too cost prohibitive. Still not sure what to do with the truck as it sits in a storage lot
My 2000 Tundra has 729,000 original untouched miles on the drive train. Just usual maintenance items.
I Had a 2001 that went 428,000, would have been more but a permit driver failed to yield, and the wreck totaled the truck. Also, it didn't use any oil I was changing it every 7-10k miles.
Lol I live in bend and was thinking “hey that looks a lot like here” before you said central Oregon
02 access cab 3.4l manual trans 408,xxx miles and counting. Original block trans and diffs.
I’ve got a 3rd gen 4Runner with the 3.4L v6. Thing is at 317,000 and still kicks. Not a check engine light in sight
412,000 on my 2005 tundra, still cruising I wish it was 4x4
I have a 04 SR5 4.7 sitting at 233K young !!!!
My tundra looks identical to this even the same lights
It will go to 1,000,000 miles I know that for fact
Can you tell us about the front end work, left kit and shocks? I gotta do this to my 2002 Tundra, and soon.
Lol doing same, selling my 2022 tacoma for a small profit and buying a used tundra.
I literally did this yesterday! I had a 2017 Tacoma trd with 116,000, found a used 05 tundra with only 79k on the clock super clean, Im get 6 grad back! So stoked!
I'm liking this better than your brothers cars haha
I have a 2004 sr5 limited crew cab. 335k. She’s a beauty.
up here where I live in Alberta my pop bought my 02 tundra brand new and he lived in Fort mac and then down in Edmonton but stil lworked at syncrude and anyways he got alot of salt on it and those fender flares that he has on that truck helped grow massive rust on the rear fenders so now their very rusty and I can't afford new fenders to chop and weld in new wheel wells now :(
350k miles. On my 01 4.7 original motor and transmission
THAT TRUCK IS CLEAN🤌🏼
What's the exhaust setup on this? Sounds great with that deep rumble and roar.
4.7 engine best best ever made
Where did you find those headlights? Those are awesome!
I literally rolled 395k on my 02 tundra today. Doesn't in any way act like a 400k had motor truck.. but when ya see the original leather seats.. there's 400k miles of ass dragged off them..
How many miles are on it now and have you had any motor or transmission issues?
@@ocularpressure4558 I just rolled 402k. No issues w motor or transmission.. currently shifts a little hard into reverse and the valve cover gasket leaks a little but nothing too serious yet.
@@ryanreeder5897 First off I would like to thank you for the quick response I also have a light valve cover gasket leak but everything else works perfectly my trucks at 312,000 not bad for 2006 I heard these trucks were over built to begin with and that they’re capable of hitting 500,000+ miles
@@ocularpressure4558 for sure they are. My buddy bought a 2012 and it was already having timing chain issues. 2000 to 2008 I believe are the bullet proof ones. Drive that thing til the wheels fall off!!!lol
@@ryanreeder5897 You would think the timing chain would have less issues then a timing belt but I think you’re right the earlier models were bulletproof and it seems like quality started to go up and down from 2008 on
I just reached 300k on my 2004 Tacoma
Some SC1 spray will do wonders for that plastic trim. What size tires are you running on this truck?
