    Hello all, I’m alex. I just bought a black 2003 Toyota Tundra AC TRD from the original owner tonight. It’s crazy he bought it for $31,550 with only 65 miles on it 17 years ago, and I got it from him for $1,000 with 568k :) it was very well maintained from looking up the history on “myToyota” Also new frame in 2014. I’m very excited to use this truck for kayak fishing and other adventures. I plan on changing out the head gasket, timing belt & water pump before I actually whip it around town. Looks like I’ll be on the forums looking for inspiration, thanks all for stopping by.

    Welcome. Sweet find. We've only had a few people report over 500K on a first gen. Unless there is something wrong with the head gasket I probably wouldn't open up the engine but that's just me.

    Ty, what part city in Ohio?

    Ty sir!

    I’ll have to find those threads, I do a lot of fishing!

    Yes, so happy the gram was replaced a couple years ago.

    The owner stated low compression so I’ll have to open it up for sure. And mind as well do the water pump and timing.

    Ty!

    Ty!

    Ty!

    Ty! I hope so too!

    ty, sir!
