    Really glad I found this site!
    I am borrowing a good friend’s 2010 tundra with a 5.7 L. (I have previously owned a 96 4 Runner, 96 Tacoma, 98 Camry, and an 06 RX 330).
    I’m going to be borrowing it for about a month. I would like to know what common problems you all have seen with Tundras? This has 140,000 miles on it. It sounds like an airplane as I get up to highway speed so I am assuming I may need to change hubs and bearings. This morning before leaving for a 1000 mile round trip I found a lug nut on my driveway! Thank God I saw it! It came off the right front tire. Two others were loose as well. Hopefully that accounts for the little bit of shaking I was noticing but I’ll find out as I get on the road and a few minutes… Aluminum wheels so I’m gonna torque onto 97 foot pounds… Hope to hear from Sonya looking forward to taking great care with my friends truck I found a lug nut on my driveway! Thank God I saw it! It came off the right front tire. Two others were loose as well. Hopefully that accounts for the little bit of shaking I was noticing but I’ll find out as I get on the road in a few minutes… Aluminum wheels so I’m gonna torque onto 97 foot pounds… Hope to hear from some of you! Looking forward to taking great care with my friends truck and returning it to her in better condition than when I bought it!

    Welcome from NC! As long as it has been taken care of there should be no issues or “common” issues.
