    I am potentially buying a Tundra TRD Rock Warrior and some are in the $20-30k's with 50-80k miles.

    Welcome from CO. 50-80K isn't much at all. Some folks here have 170K+ on a 07 and still running strong. Whatever you get, make sure there is a car fax/maintenance records, etc. Get a mech to look at it too.

    50/80k is nothing. Should be good without any big repairs/replacements until 150-200k if at all. Will be strong well after.

    Your not looking at a Ford, Dodge or Chevy. That milage is where domestic trucks start having issues. Toyota's quality is well known and documented. If your already at 30k, I would go to a dealership and see if a little creative financing could make a new truck affordable. Best of luck and we will see you in the dirt.

    When I had my 06 Tacoma I met two guys with tundras, one of them had a 2007 DC with 400,000km and still running like new he said.
    And the other one had 2008 tundra with just over 500,000km. And also said still running strong. I don't know how much that is in miles, sorry.

    500Kilometers is 310K miles roughly. A lot.
