    2011 Tundra Single Cab Long Bed 2WD
    Hello!
    Maybe I'm crazy, but I recently purchased a 2011 single cab, long bed tundra with the V6 and 300K Miles.
    I don't have much maintenance history other than oil change records from the Carfax every 6,000 miles. Any common issues or items I should immediately replace?
    Thanks!

    Change fluids and filters. Check brakes, ball joints and tie rods for wear/play. Lube drive shaft slip joint and u-joints. Enjoy for next 300k

    Send an oil sample out to a lab to check for any metal fragments or anything. It can give a good indicator of a potential future problem that we wouldn’t be able to see with your eyes alone. Best of luck!

    Plug and coil change, in addition to what's been mentioned here, and no you aren't crazy, you can get many more miles out of that truck.....

    Why change the coils if he isn’t having any problems? It seems like that money could be better well spent on other items.

    They made a V6 in the 2nd gen? Is it the 4.0 or 3.4?

    @Jack McCarthy they offered the 4.0 V6 through 2014. Don't think they used the 3.4 in 2nd gens though.

    Been looking for the same thing with 4WD. It's a rare find. Hope it carries you several hundred thousand miles more!
