2021 Tundra TRD Pro double cab here. I just passed 52,000 miles a few weeks ago and still as flawless as when she came off the show room floor. I am averaging around 21,000 miles a year so far and hope to have this truck for at least 20 years. Can't beat the 2.5 gen Tundra.
2020 Tundra Pro double cab, 60k no problems. Hopefully my last truck
Your truck has served you well. The money you’ve spent on maintenance and repairs is actually quite low to normal being at 140k mi. and the majority of it towing a heavy RV. Tundra's are a beast of a truck and are extremely reliable. I have a 2020 CM 1794 edition TRD Off-road and love it. It feels heavy and solid. The upgrades I’ve made to it is I added a back flip tonneau cover, Havoc Offroad side steps, TRD big red sway bar and upgraded the tires from the stock Michelin LTXs to the Michelin Defender LTX ms2 and they are far superior. I've towed a 21ft center console boat on a tandem axle trailer weighing 5700lbs. from Southern to Northern California and return and it handles it no problem. Even the factory brake controller works quite well. I've gotten 18mpg on the highway without towing and can 12-15mpg on the highway towing the boat in Tow/Haul. I plan on keeping my Tundra and driving it until the wheels fall off. I refuse to pay 80k for a new truck.
Amen to that.
I just hit 50K miles last week on my 2019 1794.. just had my oil changed today. (5K interval) My compliments on your AGM battery choice as I have the same one, haven’t had any issues with it. I plan on keeping this as long as possible as like you say, can’t buy them anymore 😢.. so far been an awesome truck, i love it! 😊
I want to keep my Tundra for at least 350,000 miles! I had the Catatic Converters stolen about 4 months ago. that was a whooping $7,000 repair, but insurance paid for.
Man I ot to think about that converter cover mod
Love my 2018 Tundra with a "Y'. only got 65K miles. Got my Michelin Trires from Costco, they like to rotate for free.
Got my first set from Costco, second at Discount Tire, Costco didn't have them that time
What is second generation as I’m looking for a tundra previously owned…
Some ford ecoboosts with timing chains and some silverados with lifter problems spend 4k on one repair the fact everything maintenance wise was only 4k including tires is really good
I agree completely. Just trying to present an honest documentation for people who own or are thinking about owning the 2nd gen Tundra
Nice review, good info. I just purchased a 2018, 1794 with trd off road package with 27k. It is like new. Just wondering what you tow and if you made any mods to handle the load. How often do you change oil being that you tow a lot? Thanks
Great Find! You'll come to find 2018 is the best year, all the tech gadgets, LED headlights, etc. But still had the trans cooler. Currently tow an 23' Airstream across the country handful times of year. Previously had a Lance 2375 and Lance 1995. Lots of videos on towing them across country on my channel and my setups.
@kedrevs4037 thank you for the info and response. I will follow and check them out. Safe travels.
Also, I forgot to ask what hitch you use. Is it a weight distribution hitch? Thanks
My door check is making a clunking sound as well, do you have a video on how you replaced yours?

Have you tracked how much you’ve spent on gas? I know we don’t buy these for the gas mileage but I did the math on what I’ve spent….for 43k miles I’m at $12k being each fill up at $107 with is less than what it normally cost ($120-$130)
I track every mile. Spent $9,300 in worst fuel price year ever, February '22 to '23. Id id 26,871 miles that year, 16,500 was towing a travel trailer. Averaged 10.8 overall mpgs for the year
My heater blower motor went at 130,000kms and now my belt tensioner is squealing at 190,000 kms. No need to change plug wires because there are none. Individual coil packs for all 5.7 so no need to change unless you get a code. I’ve done plugs, front and rear gear fluid, transfer case, transmission, and soon break fluid. Coolant should be done every 10 years at minimum.
Thanks for sharing, reporting in kms, most likely in Canada with your Tundra, no fun to be missing a heate
I own a 2018 Platinum and NEVER use aftermarket parts anywhere on my truck. Toyota parts are not cheap but as my son says, you pay what you get for.
Ha ha, I got a door check that broke. Replacement part is doing great.
I have 205,000 on mine the door check went, and door actuator followed shortly after but that's it
That's some minimal problems there
Have you own a gen 3 toyota tundra yet if not how can you say the Gen 2 is the best tundra
That strung out v6 will never have the longevity of a naturally aspirated V8, sadly.
@@donovanchilton5817.. I’d have to agree.
I agree, The Tundra’s V-8 has proven itself many times over. Let’s see how far the Iforce or iforce max goes.
You have seen that Engines are beginning to blow between 10 and 40k, right?
@@kedrevs4037 Not sure if I’ve heard that yet but I would wait and see if TH-cam videos start popping up 100k+,200,300k on them and how they have faired. They are thousands of gen2 Tundra’s out there several hundred thousand miles on them and still running strong like new.
Plugs and wires? Should be coils 😉
Yes,
Truck looks great for 140k…
"They told me there was more than 50% life on these tires". That statement made me stop your video. 1:54 if you're curious.
Did you have a stroke at 1:54, need me to call you a WAAAAmbulance?
