    Hell all! First time Tundra owner. Life long Chevy and Ram guy sick of trucks not lasting long at all. I’m an EMS helicopter mechanic and my truck is my main office so no time nor desire to work on it all the time. Last truck was 17 Ram Ecodiesel, thinking it would have longevity and durability for the 40-50k a year I drive. Found out after first year it was not going to be the case so I switched to give Tundra a try. I’ve only had it a few days now but I like it so far! Thanks for the add!

    Hello and welcome from S.W. Oregon, we bought our '07 that had 244,000 miles on it, starts, runs and shifts like a brand new vehicle, never fails to put a smile on my face every time I get behind the wheel and to top it all, it's the V-8 hotrod I've been wanting, the 5.7 engine is awesome. We barely got 100,000 out of our '89 F-250 SC 4X4 diesel before having major problems, I certainly expected more but that truck ended up being donated to Heritage for the Blind and we're extremely happy to own our Tundra.
