Not the best looking truck out there, but it looks good

10 MPG as well



This is a myth. I have a crew cab 4X4 with the 5.7 with 35" tires and get 14 to 17 miles per gallon. I also drive the hell out of it. Thats the average of everything combined on my computer



My coworkers ecoboost only gets 17-19 and its on its 2nd motor under 40,000 miles.

Spun the bearing or something

I will take it

If there’s any legit gripe with the Tundra this is it. Mine gets 14-15 MPG. It does drink a lot compared to the rest of the trucks in its class. Toyota has so much emission credits from the rest of its lineup that it gets a pass with the Tundra.

Maybe if you jack it up and put big tires.

I have a 17 Platinum 4X4 5.7 with factory tires and 2.5" front level and AVG an overall 14-16 MPG.

Basically 13 city and 17 interstate.

You can't beat a tundra. If you can't afford one, a f150 would be a decent alternative.

I’ve had 2. Last one had 200k on it and was 12 years old. Never had a problem.

Trucks are like ice cream. The more scoops, the better.

Reminds me of the Ted Nugent song Wango Tango.

I'll check out the hood scoop
I gotta get that hood scoop off, shine and shine and buff
I gotta buff it up, buff it up, buff it up, buff it up, buff it up,
Yeah, shiny now baby, heh heh heh

Tundras look like shite, IMO. Not a fan of the bulky, round exterior.

My Tacoma looks sexy though

The 1st Generation Tundra is about the same size as the current Tacoma. The 4.7 V8 engines in the older Tundras are pretty much bullet proof.
