Not a truck but I had an 02 Toyota Camry LE standard i bought for $1,200 & imo it is the Greatest year for camries. The interior was extremely roomy & the trunks are giant. It had 240k i sold it with 280k for $1,200. Same price i bought it for after 2 years of me driving it. I didn't want to sell it she ran like a brand new car. I never had to fix anything, ever! But i didn't pass for my license in time & i needed a place to live so i dold it for down deposit money. She sold in the first month if sitting on the side of the road. The very first person to stop & test drive bought it Edit: this was 2018 when i bought it

Bought a Tundra Limited v8 first year they made them in January of 2000. 23 years later 225,000 miles and it's going strong. Had it parked in a shipping container for 3 years at one point. Put in a new battery and it started up immediately. Incredible truck.

I bought a new 2017 Tundra SR double-cab with the 4.6L. Six seasons and 50k miles later I’m still in love. I’ve always said it’s the “last real truck.” No gimmicks, steelies, AC, 4x4, Bluetooth and dual bench seats. It’s all anyone needs. We only use it to tow our 6000LB Parker pilothouse boat, road trips (smooth as a Lincoln), and to tow an enclosed trailer. I should have it for another 10yrs easy.

If you use it primarily for towing put a transmission cooler on it. They took the transmission cooler off back in 2018. You can buy kits that have a transmission cooler and thermostat they’re not hard to install. I installed one in my 2021 tundra they’re not hard to put in at all. Well worth it I saw transmission temperatures dropped dramatically and that is the life of your transmission were talking about. I also have a 2017 tundra and that truck came with the transmission cooler already installed. So I could compare the temperatures of the transmission and see the differences that’s what made me install the cooler.

FYI a popular upgrade on the 21 is a transmission cooler I did it to mine it really helped bring down the transmission temperature and I’m sure it will increase the longevity. My 2017 tundra has the transmission cooler they took it off for the 19 version forward. Not a problem I installed a high-quality aftermarket cooler with the factory thermostat and factory hoses and piping. All available on the Internet with a kit. Definitely worth installing much lower transmission temperatures now. Just like my 2017. I also plan on keeping these trucks till I’m dead.

I also own a 1987 Toyota P/U that I purchased new and it has 240,000 miles on it and it still runs like a top. A few days ago I purchased a 2021 Tundra with only 4,049 miles on it. It's like a new truck and I'm excited to own it. I'm older now and it will probably be the last truck I will ever own. I think you're right about the Tundras they seem to last forever. I was very disappointed when Toyota dropped the V8 engine in 2022 and I don't feel like the newer ones will hold up as well as the older ones. Thanks for the great videos.

I fully agree with you. I have owned Ford's, Chevy's, Nissan and Dodge and out of these I liked the Nissan Titan the best, I owned 2. I purchased a 2016 Ford F150 with the Ecoboost and really had no issues, but the paint quality and fit and finish of the truck was just not up to par. I did like the motor though. I put a lot of miles on my vehicles in a short amount of time. The best MPG I got out of my F150 was 22 mpg and that was rare. If your running 75-80 on the interstate (like I do), it dropped to 17. I had never owned a Toyota, but know a lot of people with Tundra's and they swear by them. I decided to ditch the F150 and purchased a 2020 Tundra Platinum 4X4 Crew Cab. It was somewhat hard to find. IMHO, it was the best deal out there vs the F150 Platinum and Chevy/GMC. I absolutely love everything about the truck and don't think it is outdated at all. I did not want to wait on the New V6 turbo model, I wanted the tried and true V8. It lacks no power and believe it or not, on the road running 75-80 I am getting 19 mpg. The more "crap" they put on these newer trucks, the more problems. Enjoy the new truck!
