    Picked it up at 230k and it was well loved by 2 previous owners. Already planning on upgrading the front and back struts and otherwise am happy with the versatility. Glad to be here!

    Congrats and welcome from the Oregon Coast. Looks super clean... Do you mind me asking what you ended up paying for it? I have 2 Tundras 2021 PRO and 2008 SR5 crewmax w/about 240k on it. I'll be parting w/the 08 within the next couple of months. Thanks

    Congratulations!

    I will hit 200k on my 2008 today! Still love this truck. Just put a new muffler on & she sounds great.

    Enjoy!

    Thanks! There's a.few quirks..like the clear coat on the roof peeling off.. but the 4wd works great and it's meeting our needs. I will eventually have to deal with the cam tower leak issue but I'm not losing any noticeable oil amounts so far... trans case appears to have a leak but no noticeable issues. Pretty good for a used truck imo.
