people who get there vehicles to 1 million miles should get a new one from the factory
Caleb Hogue Toyota did give him a brand new Tundra in exchange for his old one
No they did not. Why spread bullshit?
Even if that was true I wouldn't have taken it. Money far better spent rebuilding the old one.
what money? :D
So all taxi drivers will get new cars?
Toyota gotta be the only company in the world that would buy back a vehicle of theirs with 1Mil miles on it and then have it torn down so they could improve their reliability
Cummins buys around 50 a year for testing.
My thoughts exactly. I can see some buying it to display for advertising but really like that they are going to tear it apart and use knowledge gained to make improvements or justify engineering decisions. Living in Ohio I can't see any truck surviving our metal-dissolving winter roads so it's amazing to see anything with this many miles as here it would be a pile of rust.
Idk what your talking about my grandfather has a 1996 f 150 with over a million and my dad has a 2006 f 150 with 500k don’t forget about ford man.
Honda and Ford both have as well.
Ford sucks you got 1 in 1,000,000 that lasted that long .....Yota man!
This guys safety level in the parking lot is on point.
company policy and he has no problem with it because he is accustomed to it.
Ya I’m surprised he didn’t have roofers harness just in case he tripped.
Safety First....
*en fleek
You need it when your close to a Toyota
I heard GM did this on one of their trucks that made 30,000 without any problems.
joe fran 30,000 lol
Funny! My 6.2L high country was in the shop 6 times by 27k. Final time was for a leaking radiator! I traded it in on a 2018 Tundra the day the Chevy dealer gave it back.
😂😂😂
@@JDOutdoors23 dude i have an 02 corolla with over 350k...idles rough sometimes and likes her oil but i bet shed make it to either coast just fine
TAdriver009 dang... I feel bad, Cummins logo but can’t afford a duramax ;(
Skotty kilmer *heavy breathing*
😂

😂😂😂
OMG!! Thats funny as hell! Just watched that Scotty video, he's usually pretty honest, Ford must have paid him alot of money! Really hurts Scotty credibility
REV UP THOSE ENGINES
Miles don’t hurt a vehicle. Incompetent owners hurt vehicles.
This is true. Vehicles are designed to be driven. With proper care, any properly designed vehicle will do the same miles.
Vehicles are like women: miles and years are just a number. How the hold up is a matter of driving/living conditions and service/care. Some are already sick and ugly in their twenties, while others stay fit and look stunning well into their fourties and fifties...
Long distance trips and regular maintenance are to a car what sports and a healthy diet are to people.
@@turboseize Women are like vehicles: The more owners they went through the less desirable they are.
Very well said
I want to see all the maintenance records and bills for the lifetime of the vehicle. See how much money it takes to keep a vehicle that upkept.
I've got a 2000 Tundra with 400k on the clock ... doesn't burn oil and still runs perfect. Purchased new ... best vehicle I've EVER owned!
just bought an 04 with 167k on the clock for 2k
Theres a reason tacomas keep their value just as well as jeep wranglers
@@goliathyeti1669wranglers used right are for the dirt roads. Built to go off-road.
@@duplexking8097I need one, don’t I?
2UZ-FE ?
You can't destroy a Toyota. Top Gear drowned one in the ocean, set it on fire, smashed it with a wrecking ball, and threw it off a building.... and it still ran...
Amanda M went to gta and ran
That was a mechanically injected diesel. 12v to the fuel shutoff solenoid and that’s it. No ECU. I’ve pulled mechanical injection diesels out of barns after having sat for 15 years and they still run on the old diesel in the tank. Top gear’s test was entertaining, but hardly profound.
And btw, that was a Hilux, which we don’t get. The Taco isn’t even close to the hilux in terms of capability.
Oh,the nostalgia!
Top gear is a setup show. Everything is staged, they make scrips for every show even before they review the vehicles.
@@taurinenrgy Yes some of the show is scripted but the Toyota Hilux wasn't scripted and was genuine.
I actually helped produce the connecting rods for the engine so I’m proud to know that it’s lasted 1,000,000 miles !
really? so u worked in Japan in the early to mid 90s? The LC has the engine as this one with 1m on it
or are te american ones different?
WN Continental Broadcasting This is a 2007 model . The powertrains were assembled in Alabama and the Tundra is built in Princeton, Indiana .
@@jennifercampbell2030 Thanks i was told by Toyota Media relations (i work for TV station) that the 4.7 in this unit was designed / produced in Japan. i think i had confusion as u made the item in 2000s at USA plant . thats cool. nice to see parts are interchangable with LC
WN Continental Broadcasting This is a 2UZ for 4.7, the ones in tundras and sequioas are American made, 4Runner/100 series/LX and GX 470 are built in Japan, but they’re all 2UZs
This dude really need that hard hat?
Steve Abbott 😂😂😂
They all do that, its to feel more manly since the only machinery they handle is a pen
hahahahhahahhhahahahhhhahahha I THOUGHT THE SAME EXACT THING.. Seriously, how much PPE is this company forcing these guys to wear?
Hope he’s got fireproof underware too:-))))
It's called leadership, if they are going to be pushing ppe on the workforce they better be wearing it themselves (for the sake of the video though it is silly)
He drove 120k miles a year... 300+ miles everyday. He lived in that Toyota.
That is insane... onetime I drove 4000 miles in a week and after I did not leave the house for 3 days
thats only something around 5 hours per day... not much
Mario on the Moon try 3000 miles in 3 days (across the country)
He won’t come out of his house for a year.
Gab riel that’s about 1/5 of your day driving. That’s alot
I owned a Camry with 459000 miles on it purred like a cat every time I turned it on. Wish I didn’t sell it for 300$ that thing was a beast
I have an 05 camry with 242000 miles on it.
Great vehicle.
Mine made it to 385k those cares were tanks man.
i also have a camry. can you guys give me tips on how you do the maintenance?
lol @ using "Camry" and "beast" in the same sentence....
lightnin.K always back to basics i guess...
Follow the maintenance schedule
Replace the wear and tear abit before the actual time (to prevent it failing during use, which might damage other components)
Dont overburden the vehicle (dont floor it, dont speed like a madman, dont overload)
Keep it clean inside n out (to take care of the paint, so that the paint can protect the metal. To prevent dust and dirt ruining the wiring insulators)
Drive easy when cold
Try to avoid traffic jams (start and stop traffic is a guaranteed way to cut ur cars drivetrain lifespan by half).
Troubleshoot asap any funny noises or weird driving sensations (jerkiness, unstable acceleration, rough noises from the engine or tires)
Try to keep things stock and original/oem. Dont go cheap on parts.
It's the Nokia 3310 of trucks
That's funny. Great analogy!
Id say the hilux is
I’m a year late but if you get the chance, look up “Toyota Hilux” or even “Toyota Hilux top gear episode” on TH-cam (sadly the truck isn’t available in the US)
Dayumn miss that 2000s brick Lol !
that's it....I'm buying a Tundra!!! marketing guys did well on this one.
Same. !!!!!
dbruin03 I'm not going to replace ball joints unless they're bad... No point replacing them if there's still no play.
dbruin03 wish I had seen this 6 months ago! I broke a ball joint on my 05 tundra at 205,000 miles. Luckily I wasn’t going very fast at the time. Scared the heck out of me.
So, it's still cheap
Hey, here's a Nissan Frontier with 1,000,000 million miles. th-cam.com/video/4Cc3AgIy4vw/w-d-xo.html
Imagine how many farts that seat has suffered
Lawnmower 2mil
ThatGuyThatrollsYoü and that’s just a conservative number
😂
The real questions are being asked
Lawnmower hahaha haha
Miles: 1,000,000
Price: $-25,000
that would make sense but seems 1m mile cars go for a lot
WN Continental Broadcasting they are probably dirt cheap it has a million miles
Wrong!!!
A million mile vehicle is worth millions in marketing. Further proof Toyota makes a dependable vehicle equals Billions in car sales.
After watching this video I'm now looking for a Toyota Tundra.
MARZOSIRUS Toyota’s are ass
If this was in california, he will be spending atleast $200,000 on gas
My 2007 Toyota Tundra had 440,000 miles on it. Original everything. Just regular maintenance.
Darick Apodaca "had" did you sell it?
ilias tredi boy It blew up.
Which motor
Which motor?
💥
Truck looks like 100K miles, amazing shape. That's someone who really takes care of their vehicle
looks perfect on the outside.
When you live in California but work in New York.
😂😂
Lmao
Girl, jokes aside; I live in atl ga and work in Cranberry, Pa
@@katherinerivera4543 why in the world would you not move??
When you live in Florida but you work in Alaska
Range Rover should do one of these when their trucks reach 100k 🤣
Lol
Range rover don't make trucks
king HK it’s a joke ranger rovers always break down mostly all British vehicles do
Simon Quach you can find tons of 100k mile range rovers in the hood with hundreds of issues that were picked up for 2 grand
@Me Me or 5k. Seriously, I know a guy that together with others drove the brand new 4th gen RR(back when it was new) to and from customer events. They had a large event in France and out of the roughly 100 cars they brought there, over 40 broke down on the way to and from the event back to the place that provided them.
I think it's awesome that they care enough to see this as an opportunity to examine their product’s strengths and weaknesses. Probably the best Toyota commercial I've ever seen, and it wasn't even meant to be that! We've all heard all the manufactures tell us how great their product is. How committed to quality and strength and dependability they are. I’ve never been impressed by any of these claims. I've always felt actions speak louder than words. This is proof that they are truly working on continually improving.
And that’s Awesome!
Thus far, this is the most intelligent reply from this video.
all car manufacturers do that, specially the German ones, they just don't record it and post it on the internet (some of them even take their competitors' cars to examine and learn from them).
Honda and Toyota are really the two biggest manufacturers for reliability. Even in fairly negligent hands, they can still last upwards of 200,000 and 300,000 miles. It'd be nice to see other manufacturers going the extra mile like we see here!
Matt Smith nothing surprising really, my 2004 Golf mk5 1.9TDI has about 370000 Km in it and it's still working like new and it's complicated as well with VGT turbo and stuff like that till now none of all that failed even the electric features like parking sensors auto headlights/whippers, auto dimming mirrors , climatronic.... are still working with no problem at all.
abd bach Equals out to about 229k miles, Pretty good. - :)
Jeremy Clarkson was right.... you can't kill a Toyota pickup....
Exactly
You really cant kill one. You can drown it, burn it, demolish it from a building, hit it with a wrecking ball and it'll still run. Trust me, only 2 things can survive an apocalypse and thats roaches and Tacomas.
Bubba Nush You cant. They did everything to it and it still ran like a champ
You know what can kill a Toyota a GM radiator that leaked from the start and the truck overheated blew the motor
my dads 97 f150 made over a million with the original 4.2lv6. big deal
My 1990 4runner lasted 300k and I would probably still be driving it but apparently build quality doesn't protect a vehicle from Chevy avalanches running stop signs and smashing into it at 55 mph.
Thinking about a new 4runner now. Still built in Japan and with proven parts. Give me a naturally aspirated v6 with a decade of proven service over a fancy Ecoboost any day!
Joshua K I have a 2003 Toyota 4Runner original motor and transmission no rebuilds with over 500000 miles
Get v8 and a pair and watch out for a Chevy or get a real truck you g]could try that marty
Moose Chocolate has a tiny dick so a v8 makes him feel more secure.
Oh man that sucks ! I still have my 1993 Toyota 4runner sr5 v6 ! It has 454,967 miles on it currently, and it runs like its a brand new vehicle, and it never failed me. The shape in my opinion though is outdated, but still is much better than these new alien looking plastic pods FWD suv's on the roads today ! I recommend a new 4runner for you ! I will get one too in time. The new 4runner has the classic boxy shape but its more modern and looks fantastic in a world full of pods roaming the streets !
2002 4-runner 250K miles, including 20K of hardcore offroad, running hang glider pilots up and down mountains. If I wasn't a believer before (Toyota trucks, the military and the Middle East, those who have been there know what I mean) I am now.
I love the fact that engineering team want to tear it down to see what's else they can make an improvement on. I think if Toyota is the only car manufacture in this world there wouldn't be mechanic shop.
They don't want to improve that... They'll go out of business if they allow every vehicle to run for a million miles. They want to it to break down eventually so you have to buy a new one.
My dad has a 2010 Tundra. We go all over the country with it on vacations, we tow boats, we use it for work, basically we use it *a lot*. It's still going strong and it's never had to go to a shop for any problems. This is why I'll always love Toyota. Everything is great about these cars.
TheGrayWolf81 miles?
You lost all credibility when you called this truck a car
The reliability of a Toyota. *Unbeatable.*
Ry Zeus not necessarily the world record is held by Volvo by about 2million miles, also my Volkswagen transporter has 1.6 million miles not even gearing has been fixed or repaired the only thing I’ve done is put a bigger turbo on it not even the injectors have ceased, and not even the drivers seat is torn or worn through
I had a 98 Chevy Silverado with 862,000 on it before I traded it in on a 2012 HD. All I did was exhaust, starter and brakes. Some rust repair but I live in north central Pennsylvania. Heart of the rust belt. And I was in my 20s most of ownership.
Chancellor Wewuz what 862,000 inches? Lol jk did it have a 5.3
Justin Martin 5.3 yes.
Yea the 5.3 is a good engine. Don’t like the 6.0 though
I have a 1996 Toyota Tacoma that has 1.2 million miles and it's still running beautifully.
I don't know if any work was done in the past because I'm not the first owner, but I have had it for 10 years and it has not broken even once, other than having to buy a new battery.
Pot Ate Toe yea sure lol
I have a 1996 with 267,000 have receipts for every bit of work that’s every been out into this truck we’re the 3rd owners
@@tiddbob4166 - I know it sounds preposterous, but the odometer already showed 100,000 when I bought it; I put more than 100,000 myself, and I was the third or fourth owner. The odometer is the old dialing kind, not digital. The truck came from a different country so its been driven quite a bit. It's highly possible that the odometer reached all 999,999 and clocked back to 000,000 ... or someone tampered with the dashboard before I owned it. But I don't think that a 1996 tacoma had only 100,000 when I bough it.
I have a 1987 toyota hilux with 9.47 million miles. I've had it since new. Never did any work on it other than putting gas in. Runs like new
@@TheSuperBoyProject 🤯🤌🏻🤤

yoooo
FaZe Killa it actually does have 1,000,000 miles on it noob
Definitely true Toyota vehicles are built to last
FaZe Killa nigga why don't you go travel n take a look at it urself yo ass can't hack an odometer
1 water pump and 1 alt? I call bullshit. Water pump is supposed to be replaced with the timing belt every 90k
Y THE HELL IS THIS GUY DRESSED LIKE A CONSTRUCTION WORKER?
HEALTH AND SAFETY BRO.
It can happen ANY TIME ANYWHERE so be PREPARED
That's the safety policy for the Toyota plant.
Because it makes him look official,nobody would take him serious if he just wore plain clothes.Trust me they tried it without the uniform and they only got like 14 views. XD
Standard "PPE" safety gear the helmet is a bump cap meant to protect against light bumps and scratches when working, manufacturing Toyota vehicles.
The owner had to drive an average of 273 miles per day to reach 1 million in 10 years. That's a lot of driving.....
I drive that in a week in my tacoma, which is still under average. To think He had to fill up almost every other day and get tires twice a year, and brakes 1 or twice a year, and oil change once a month is insane.
It was all most likely billed directly to his company.
I drive 20k-30k miles a year on my 09 Toyota. I racked up 181,234 miles on it all ready. I also go through a set of tires one a year. I did at one point had oil changes every signal month. I was putting on 5k every month. Thing runs like a clock.
Ramo i drive about 200-300 miles a day my self i put 20k miles on my tacoma in about 3months of getting it & i do delivery's everyday all day averaging about 250miles each trip
At least he is probably good at doing oul changes himself
Impressive even with proper maintenance. Other significant points here is that he drive highway miles which are less stressful on a vehicle (vs. city miles) yet he hauled with the truck. Would love to hear a summary of Toyota's findings.
Toyota is absolutely amazing. A friend of mine who drives a dodge tried to tell me they sucked and I laughed in his face. The exterior and interior is absolutely amazing!
Postal Patriot556 I hope you showed him this!
If they drive a Dodge you already know they don't know anything.
Dodge is the biggest pile of garbage on the road..
I got my 2001 Rav4 to 895,000 when I was an auctioneer. Used it for hauling and towing up and over the recommended weight up to approximately 3500lbs. I would be still driving it today if I didn't get hit by a tractor trailer in 2011. That twisted the poor little suv right out of whack. I had to change a clutch at around 550,000 and I lost 5th gear (OD) while driving through the mountains in 2007. I'm a large man as well. 6'5" +300lbs. Engine had good compression right 'till the end.
I now have a 2008 Highlander and coming up on 400,000 soon. I'm very happy with Toyota quality.
No one gives a shit
Greyhound it's a cool story just shows you how reliable Toyotas can be
shit his k&n 1 million miles warranty expired.
to be fair his odometer says 999,999 miles
Shawn White that’s the highest value the odometer can display lol
Seigin1 Hahahahahahahahahaha nice!
If it had a K&n filter it would not have lasted that long.
NATE DOGG my thoughts exactly
Does this dude really need all that equipment on him just to talk about a Toyota Tundra?
The Tundra is a beast therefore he decided to wear that equipment
He wanted to feel like a man. He just holds a pen all day in his office
🤣
They did it as a joke! Come on live a little
Ppe
So I turned down a tundra because it had 150k miles. Well f*ck
Bryan3000GG dumbass. Miles don't mean shit to foreign cars.
r0llinlacs this isn’t foreign dumbass
Mensur Cirikovic uh ya tundra is foreign
r0llinlacs people refer foreign cars as German also Honda and Mazda
I bought a used Lexus with 175k on it. I checked the owner reviews still but people had 350k plus on that year IS so I wasn't worried
I am glad my 2007 Lexus LX470 also has this identical legendary engine and transmission platform.
what about rusty frame? and broken frame near the engine?
th-cam.com/video/tNvCWqN3MPA/w-d-xo.html
the video you linked is for the v6 engine not the v8 in this or the lx470
That’s not how it works
Guy that puts 1,000,000 miles on it.
Nobody:
This dude: ima purchase it and destroy it
Seriously. What if it made it to 2? 🤷
“Gonna pop a hood today of a truck, I’ll need my hard hat AND a safety vest”

good commercial for toyota btw
Of course, thats why this guy went to the marketing dpt. for the purchase, he mention it at the beginning of the video
apogeus2 commercial for toyota dealer in USA because toyota services can vary from country to country based on the dealer!
Dependebility, longevity, Indestructibility, immortality, durability and reliability is what Toyota is
the amount of fuel it has consumed in its lifetime can fuel a small country
At $3.00 a gallon,getting 20mpg that's $150,000.00 just for the gas,lol.
Mark Wales you must be fun at parties
20mpg? you wish, those things average 14mpg thats not including the towing and hauling the additional weight.
+Sergio Tamez it depends how you drive it. 1300 km road trip and I averaged 18.7 mpg. that was driving it at the speed limit.
that's very impressive, I drive mine easy and i get 16mpg. either way 20mpg will never be seen in these tundras untill the engineers do something to that motor
We got a Sequoia with 300k miles on it. Same drivetrain as the tundra. It's good to know it can keep on going for much longer.
what year?
zadeopotato I have a 2003 Sequoia with 223k miles on it and a mechanic recently told me it will easily reach at least 400k miles
I admire the Battle Scars in the bed of the truck
Big deal....my Nissan gets a brand new CVT transmission every 45,000 miles. 😂 😭
TheGomezIndustries Can’t stand Nissan for that CVT issue. My dad gave me his 2013 Maxima, (love it because it’s a Nissan) but the catch was I had to put a brand new CVT in it. The original one lasted 140,000 miles, so hopefully this one does the same or more. Seems like they wouldn’t want that issue as it would drive away the Nissan fans like me....Getting me a 240 soon lol
Mekhi Harris what about 2020 Nissan Titan or Nissan warrior do they have trouble I’m thinking of getting a new truck but don’t know not ford nor ram nor gmc or Chevy only good Toyota right what about others
John Mcclane Nissan motors are fairly reliable, but from what I know the Titan does not have a CVT, and a 9 Speed auto instead. That would most likely last longer than a CVT. Titan is not a bad truck by any means, but some people don’t classify it as a real “truck” because it wasn’t made by Ford, Ram, or Chevrolet.
John Mcclane
Why gamble? Forget Nissan, ever since they merge with Renault they became shit.
this is 1 million though according to the thumbnail
My toyota is currently at 789k miles lol

It's not impossible to believe that they might want to make a quality product
thats fords mentality they've had the same v8 motors since 07. nice try tho tool
The courier company that I worked for had four econoline vans that all ran well with over 400k miles on them. Sure, it isn't a million yet, but all of them felt like they would last another 400k so long as service was done to them. I don't even like ford... I drive a Subaru. But I certainly wouldn't rag on their reliability.
With my experience with Fords I can actually rag on their reliability. Have not had good experiences with them, with either car or truck
The big tried that and be of that they almost went broke. Let the free market,the people, reign in a company that is willing to do the right thing.
theres a episode of topgear where they try to kill a Toyota pickup but couldnt manage it :) they even put it on top of a high rise building and demolished the building, the Toyota still ran lol
Norry Rampage I remember it like it primiered yesterday
2016-2018 Toyota Tacoma have worst reliability rating of any midsize truck per Consumer Reports.
That was a hilux
Who else get this in their recommendation like 2-3 times a year but you watch it every time

😂
Xavier Roy-Lanctot on my second here
Me 4th time
imagine the total cost he spent on gas
imagine total cost of repairs
117 oil changes, 2 timing chain changes, and one transmission repair, all done by the same dealer. That's a lot of money.
+Michael Sabrsula oil changes are just maintenance that's not repairs...
Probably billed to the gas company he contracted with, or he had a company gas card.
more than what the truck is worth several times over
Toyota chief engineer and he didn't even know that the 4.7 liter has a timing belt instead of timing chain??? I don't usually try to troll or hate but come on now..
Yeah i call bs its in way to good of shape
@BMW516 I own a 2017 corolla its an ok car but trust me no ten year work truck is going to look that clean with that many miles. No rips in the drivers seat where you exit the truck is a dead give away of bs. Thats why the guy brings it up in the video to throw you off. And my corolla the plastic by the wind shield broke so i glued it and the glass in my rear view mirror is loose and shakes. The dealer ordered a new one said they installed but didnt it was the same mirror they tighten it a little thats all.Toyotas are good cars but there not magic A million miles is a complete lie .
@BMW516 Keep drinking that b.s. kool aid . Its a work truck not a car big difference.

That’s over 300 miles a day if he got it brand new and never skipped a day
Parker Hein I don’t know why you did this calculation but it needed to be done. GOD DAMN A

NovaOp they have Hilux or land cruiser
Isis?
Haha
100,000 miles for an American Car and it breaks down. 100,000 for a Toyota and it’s broken in.
Illegalskittles no inaccurate. I have a geo metro with 928283(747484777493939387484..4947+48$929283883838484848 miles on it.
my 2003 f350 has 300k miles looks almost new besides drivers seat. my friends 96 has 800k miles had the engine rebuilt once at 500k, a few transmissions and one rear end from towing heavy constantly. dodge cummins trucks can go longer but the dodge trucks themselves fall apart :-P
dsruddell i have a 1917 ford with 10 million miles on it. im the original owner and ive been driving it since ww1. only have had to change the oil since i had it. i also race it on the weekends
America can build trucks and muscle cars, but an everyday travel car? NO.... I’ll stay European.
First Last you’re actually stupid, it was put together in america but parts and everything are japanese
Incredible reliability. There is also a 5.7 liter Tundra now with over a million miles. Look up Blaine Johnsons million mile Tundra.
Reminds of the Top Gear episode ""Killing a Toyota"
true
yea
ikr!
My 98 V6 Tacoma has 535k and still going with original unopened engine and transmission.
F S I have a 96 V6 4x4. Hope mine last as long. Did you have to replace your starter yet?
what oil did you used? after how many miles did you changed the oil?
Sooooo he's the Chief Engineer, and he doesn't even know that the 4.7 has a TIMING BELT??
Yup
thats because nearly all toyotas have chains...the 4.7 is the rare exception
+phil tripe ......uh......no. You couldn't be more wrong.
WAY off as far as calling it a "rare exception". There is absolutely NOTHING rare about Toyota using a timing belt in their engines
I don't know why american likes to take credit for everything, it's a fucking Toyota not ford or chevy... and please don't counter argument with "it's built in america" or something like that.
My 2001 Tundra has over 380,000 miles on it!!!!...love my work truck!!!
This is why Toyota makes the most reliable automobiles ever. They last forever.
he had a stroke
do they have any sport cars other then the supra or frs
Costel Coaie what makes u think it doesn’t? U know that’s a fact.
Miller Vititow nope I just check last week. And there fine.
Jet Threat Leo Celica, old skool corolla, MR-2, pretty much it I believe.
I have 2001 sequoia with 545k miles no major repairs of any sorts... change oil and breaks
zaid almontaser my 2002 sequoia has about 200k I think and no problems other than the struts and rack-Pinion(if that's how you pronounce it) is bad but already ordered the parts but no engine problems. We've used as a family car and to take to Cali, lakes far, off roading at one point too and maybe the power steering went out at one point but that was years ago can remember what we did
zaid almontaser How many timing belts have you put on? That's awesome I have a 00"Tundra 4x4 with 194,000
I have a 2003 Sequoia with 250k miles
what type of oil?
does it have the sealed transmission? have you changed the fluid?
I just bought an 03 Tundra with 230K miles. I was a bit hesitant due to the miles but it drives awesome and I got it at a very good price. Hopefully I can make it last for many more miles.
Just picked up a 2012 Tundra last week @ 93K miles. Somehow I was blessed and found a vehicle with nearly all of it's maintenance records. In the next 2 weeks I will be replacing all the fluids. I have most fluids and a few are in the mail. The coolant, trans, brakes and power steering will be OEM Toyota fluids. Motul for engine oil with OEM filter. Lastly Royal Purple in both diffs and transfer case. Serpentine belt/water pump coming later this summer.
Toyotas are unbeatable! Some people have seen maybe 1 or 2 other brands have a few cars make it this far, but Toyota is extremely consistent with their super high quality cars!
And I was hesitant on buying an 05 Tacoma with 109k miles lol.
thatguymichael that could have been a good bargain if bought at the right price
109k miles is just warming up.
😄😄😄😄😄
thatguymichael 109k? Barely starting to break in. Once it hits 200k it’s broken in. By that time most chevys or dodge trucks are in the junk yard
The Toyota v8 both 4.7 & 5.7 are great engines. I regularly see the 4.7 in my shop with 300-500k.
One major flaw in the video, the 4.7 is a timing belt motor, not a timing chain motor. This Toyota engineer needs to get his shit straight.
What an embarrassing mistake and in front of millions of people.
to be fair the 4.7 and 5.7 arent motors, they are engines
@@dandemore8057 Motor is a common slang used in the car community to describe an engine.
@@mickdavis2385 i know ofc. but he called the guy out on something equally as meaningless
@@dandemore8057 Josh is not the chief engineer for Toyota. He's allowed to use slang. If you have that title, you should know which engines have timing chains and which have belts, it's a pretty crucial piece of information.
Dealership: oks so before you sell, how many miles do you have?
Owner: more than 999999
Dealership: no the actual amount.
Owner: I don’t know, the odometer ran out of room.
Dealership: no
this is why I love Toyota
Mell Johnson same here sir
THIS IS WHY TOYOTA TUNDRAS ARE AWESOME
The Excellent Decisions Toyotas in general
Angel TV even the 86?
this could have gone BEYOND 1 MILLION MILES, just the Digital Gauge doesn't go any further...
exactly..
Fantastic, I love hearing million mile stories. I have a 2004 Lexus Is300 with 450K I’ve only changed the oil, breaks and tires and one set of plugs and coils belts.
My mom just got a brand new tundra and she loves it
BalisticAssualtRifle jk
Is the helmet and reflective vest necessary for the making of this video?
yes
Sure, one million miles it may explode any time. LOL
+Arthur Ramalho lol
+Arthur Ramalho ford will never see 1 million miles
He probably came back from the factory. I went on a tour in the factory and the guys are in this sort of uniform on the assembly line.
they should just keep using it to see how much more it last
2 million miles, engine is on fire, steering wheel became inverted. Truck will only drive on reverse.
It must be on it's way out or else the original owner would probably still be driving it.
+TheCobruhAlienat0r I saw an article on this in Truck Trend. He traded it for a new Tundra and Toyota wanted the truck anyway.
Toyota bought the truck from him. They probably made him a fantastic offer that he would have been foolish to decline.
Or Toyota offered him a great deal.
In terms of the driver seat looking so good, I'm going to guess he had seat covers on them. They help out a lot with preserving seats.
in the north east this truck would have rotted out by 350k mile, toyota should focus on rustproofing
YES
If you get 350k out of a truck, that's a win just by itself. Much more than that, especially in the rust belt, is asking a bit much.
i would be happy if a vehicle lasted me 350k
Ford dodge and Chevy would not rust out
My dad's 02 f250 has almost 400,000 miles on it, its on its second transmission but still has the original gas v8. We live in Maryland and it has little rust but nothing serious even with the road salt during the winters.
Tear it down??? Why?? They should keep it as is and make it a display
yes
I think they wanted to study the car.
They do want to study it, they gave the guy a brand new truck in trade for this one because they want to know what they did right with this generation
They should display it I've seen a couple Hondas at Honda dealers with 350,000 miles they show how long they last so people know what there buying a good car.
they want to know what they did right so they can never do it again. they lost a lot of money with this truck lasting this long. lol
I have a 2007 4 runner 4.7 V8 engine and it has 300,000 miles on it, hardly broken in yet :D
Most well built truck in the past 20 years. Arguably commercial grade. My favorite gas power forklifts have been Toyota's. Just one of the many reasons I bought a 2012 Tundra.
Toyota forklifts are really nice to dtive.
I live in Canada I have a 2001 Toyota Tacoma that came to Canada from the states somewhere i have nearly 400,000 miles on it
Nice. My 2001 Tacoma has 325,000kms on it, and have a 1993 4runner with only 175,000km
chris l where in Canada do you live?
Also is in such good shape because he took care of it and lived down in Texas where there is no salt.
drove to Louisiana near the gulf, where yes I'm sure there is plenty of salt. When you get the iced-up roads almost every winter, yeah they throw down salt on the roads down here too.
no salt but alot of intense heat
+Zakkx3 Actually a lot of southern states use a mixture of sand when they get snow
Tyler Dowd Salt to absorb the ice and water, sand to help with traction?
This is why I own a toyota..
me too, bought my first one in 1988 and never looked back
i'll never sell my 2004 double cab Prerunner.
If it isn't Toyota, Honda or Subaru i won't drive it. My daily driver is a Toyota.
+zoidberg444 you are so right my 1992 Honda Accord gives my way less trouble then my 2001 ram and 2005 ford the ford is getting sold for a toyota corolla and soon the ram well be to for a tundra
The Beige Wonder imagine if most americans switched to Toyota, we would have to spend billions of our hard earned tax dollars to bail out the domestic companies again
I love this. I drive a 4.0 V6 4runner 5th gen. Just hit 90k. I hope my son enjoys this truck when he gets his license in 7 years.
this dude must have driven over 300 miles every day 365 days of the year to get to 1 million...
for the complete 9 years
I'd lose my fucking mind.
lol true
I easily drive over 200 a day. Its not that big of a stretch.
if you cut out weekends its allmost 430 miles a day.
this number adds up with a 8 hour work day as well
Toyota makes the best trucks/SUV's, no questions asked.
Anytime I think about selling my '05 Tundra (175k miles) I watch this video.
That's super impressive!
The video also wants to make me skip doing my timing "chain".
I think I can squeeze another 300k out of it.
Don’t push it. From what I read that’s an interference engine, don’t destroy your engine because you neglected to maintenance. Change it when it’s due, but granted if you drive mostly highway you can get away with pushing it a little bit
Yeah...... The engine has a timing belt. Not sure why he keeps saying chain. And you should always change the water pump and belt at the same time.
And yes, its an interference engine, which is why they moved to the newer 4.6L in 2010. I hear its more reliable than the 5.7L.
Unfortunately you'll probably never see a vehicle with this many miles up here in the northeast. The salt relentlessly kills vehicles. My car has 138k miles and runs perfect but there's rust everywhere and it probably only has two or three years left before it's no good. Sucks. Still, kudos to Toyota they make great trucks
yes but Chevrolet Ford and Dodge make a better truck so don't you do us all a favor and support American made products you fucking liberal Democrat
+killadelphia PA Idiot.
+killadelphia PA You're a fucking idiot.
+killadelphia PA lol nice! i myself am a diehard republican, but toyota trucks are the best. and honda nissan and toyota are the best cars. sorry.
Yeah dude I'm not a liberal or a democrat and I drive a Pontiac sorry to break it to you lol
I have to admit that I'm more impressed with the condition of the body than the mileage. That guy really takes care of his equipment.
So this IS Matt Farrah's Million Mile Lexus!
Does this Tundra look like a Lexus?
+guy proulx I mean it kinda does. Same company ;P
Jesus Ramos i don't see any resemblance at all, just because it's the same brand doesn't mean they look alike, does the F-150 look like a Focus
+guy proulx apparently, you don't get the joke.
Tyler Cameron i guess not lol, i'm not american so maby that's why i didn't catch on
Yup! I had a 2009 tundra for work and drove it for about 4 years. 275k miles later ive never had to do one thing to the truck except an altenator as well. Not sure why im not shopping for one for my personal🤷♂️🤷♂️🤔
Yee yee I just bought me a 2011 with 165k on it for 8900. I have one complaint about the truck... the previous owner didn’t break it in for me
RiverSLV great purchase brother! Enjoy it!
The truck is from la that's why. They have long flat roads and they don't have any rust if that was up north it would be rusted to hell. Frame and body!
That thing wouldn't last long on Minnesota salted roads in the winter!!
+MontyCarlo1977 nor in canadas mountain roads
+MontyCarlo1977 I know basically anywhere up north. If you look for trucks for sale down south you'll see they have a lot more miles than ones here like 300,000-500,000 miles here they barely get to 200,000 before rusting out. Notice how the Toyota guy in the video is only worried about the welds and the seat holding up he doesn't even care about rust.
Yeah but he was hauling for a hot shot company and saw lots of salt air doing his deliveries, this guy is local to where I live I know the conditions they are not always the best, I'm not a huge Toyota fan but not many people in my area have vehicles that last that long and are still in this good of conditions
+djeazy2012 because there's no rust down south it's simple.
Congratulations TOYOTA! That's why you are the No1 Automaker in the world!
PLEASE, please, please.....film that teardown!!!
Ok, so the 4.7L has a timing belt but the engineer dude keeps saying it has a chain and it was replaced twice.
This is exactly what I was asking about
I was hoping he would correct himself but he didn't. He just kept saying it.
All 4.7s have a timing belt and 07 was the last year to offer the 4.7 before offering the 4.6
Bought a 07 with the 4.7 with 22k miles for 20k off the lot. Should have kept it but ended up with a 2010 with a 5.7.
Foreal think they just pulled this dude off the street and gave him a Toyota hard hat.
And why does Toyota recommend replacing them every 90K? I have an 06 land cruiser and I’ve put two into it and it’s just at 200k.
@@Xdtrl I have a 2008 with a 4.7
just shows that toyota makes great pickups
