    I found a pretty good deal on an 07 DCLB tundra. It's got the 5.7l engine and about 175,000 miles on it, but it looks pretty clean and fairly well taken care of. The current owner says they haven't had any issues so far.

    Is there anything specific that I should look for before buying? I've heard the water pump can be a problem sometimes and bed rust seems to be a common issue. Anything that I'm missing? After the last time I went and looked at a truck, I want to make sure I know all the problems I'm looking for going in.
