2010 Tundra Limited Question

Looking at a 2010 Tundra Limited tomorrow. About 80,000 miles
What types of problems should I be looking for?
If I buy it what should I do first thing (coolant, tranny, Diff flush)?

Any belts hoses etc that should be changed?

Any thing else?

 

Yes, service the transmission. You could take the truck to get a pre purchase inspection, that can often be money well spent. Personally I would take it to the dealership and make up some story about sending your kid/niece/nephew to college with it and you want to know everything that's wrong with it, and that you might just trade it if necessary. That will motivate them to make a comprehensive list

 

Most of the big stuff doesn't come until 100k or 120k. You can find the recc list for service online. Does it have a good record of maintenance? Sometimes you can get it from Carfax, or if its a local truck you might be able to find the shop that did the oil changes etc. I bought my 2013 used at 112k and it had a really solid record of regular maintenance on Carfax so I felt very good about the mileage.

If no record exists then have someone look at the diff fluids etc. I'm not sure how willing dealerships are to do that; they would rather just replace everything. They may still be ok, but plan on bigger $$ when they come due. Also, if it was used for towing the rear diff should be changed more often. Plugs won't be due until 120k I think, but I'm going to 150 because mine is running really smoothly at 136k and I can't find a record of them being changed. 80k for a 2010 is nothing ~ great score if its been well maintained.
