Tundras can tow but the payload is nothing to brag about even for a half ton. Not to mention long beds are almost non existent. I really wish Toyota and Honda had chosen to make heavy duty pickups. Who knows what the future holds but it’s unlikely it’ll ever happen if it hasn’t by now.
(My EV Rant) > I don't want to drive a computer, i don't want a computer to drive me! I don't want to interact with my vehicle i want to drive and control the vehicle myself. I don't need any help to drive my own car. This smart vehicle (if you want to call it that) is a stupid idea. I will never own a high tech EV. i'll buy a horse instead that way i can interact with my ride in a more natural way like god intended us to live our life. Screw all this extra high technology crap cause thats what it is. The American public never wanted crap like this there pushing this junk down every ones throat. I don't want a car that will put out a boatload of (RFs) that will give me and my passengers cancer. Oh our high tech vehicles won't cause cancer! Yeah right !!!
Scotty.. just bought a 2016 Tundra 2wd double cab 4.7 with 70,000 miles. Super clean, $21,000. Anything to watch for with that year? Still consider that to be a "bullet proof truck"???
I love this guy, ive followed your advice after 10 of not having a car. I was looking for a 09 camry after i heard its the last manual body style. Ironically i was actually looking for a tundra 1st. Then a tacoma. And after losing out on the camry i wanted un the right color i said screw it. Just get a good daily. I ended up with an 04 corolla. This little car has been amazing. So have to give it to scotty, little toyota with a manual is a great car to get around
Honestly, I probably won't put a supercharger on my 06 Tundra because I bought it specifically with longevity in mind... Getting a little extra power to push around 300hp would be pretty nice though. Oh well, maybe I'll buy a "toy" one day to play around with power numbers. It may sound silly or stupid to others, but it sounds like a fun project to me.
My 2004 Tundra was built in Indiana with a 3.4L V-6 and five-speed manual transmission. Under the right conditions, it gets 25 MPG. It still has the original brakes and clutch. I do think that I will need brakes in a year. The only failure was the heating element on the #2 O2 sensor died. It cost me $45.00 for the replacement O2 sensor and 20 minutes of my time. Can you say "bulletproof"?
@@twill9278 I do have some mods to my truck. 1-KN performance intake, 2-TRD racing headers, 3-Gale Banks monster exhaust. I also run all synthetic lubricants including the grease in my driveline joints. I usually get 22-25 mpg on the highway and about 20 mpg in city driving. I am using a "scangauge" to read the MPG right from the ECU computer.
@@eugene44569 he probably means there’s only 4 used Tundras in Norway, likely imported and being that they’re so rare the value is super high no matter their configuration
@@cesarurzua8234 if ya asking about my s10 then yes transmission beens replaced and it's been breaking down left and right after that luckily I'm a mechanic but it's getting ridiculous
I have a 2000 tundra in mint condition. Paid 7000 for it with 128000 miles 6 years ago. It now has 230000. Still looks and runs perfect. Best vehicle I have ever owned. And I've already had the timing belt and starter replaced too
@@rustedratchetgarage6788 yup bought a 2019 in mid 2018. Didn’t watch scotty’s videos till after I bought it. It’s the new 9 speed transmission they know nothing about. It’s been hunting gears since 30k miles they have no idea how to fix it. Water pump and idle pulley just went out last week at 56k..not to mention the key fob stopped working twice and tons of plastic has broken. Thought I’ll sell my old ranger with over 200k miles on it and buy brand new cause I now drive about 80 miles a day. Should have just kept the old Ford till I found a good used Toyota, then sold the old Ford to get a classic weekend car. If I would have known of Scotty then, I would have listened to him..because with his 53 years of knowledge he has been 100% correct about new Jeep’s. They are not made as good as they used to be and are rolling piles of crap. Just hope I can sell it in a year or 2 to get out before it really hurts
I myself have an 07 Avalon and I have faced this very problem. Finding used parts for it was a pain. Most junkyards I called didn't even have any Avalons at all. I gotta say these cars are amazing though. They ride like a dream and I never thought I could love a car so much
I also have a 2004 Avalon, got from my father, runs like a top. Only 80K on it. Replaced timing belt and water pump, that’s it. Only issue has been rear struts have started to make a knocking noise.
@Kanpol Mahtlactliomei you, sir, have completely neglected your car! My 2012 Chrysler with only 97k miles on it will outlast your car, because I've kept up with routine maintenance... Like replacing my engine, rebuilding my trans, replacing all suspension and steering parts, alternator, etc.
My 2004 Tundra double cab 4.7 L 330,000 miles no problems just gas and oil Oil changes. What a beast. High mileage doesn’t concern me with these trucks. As long as they had preventive maintenance throughout its life❤ ❤❤
I'd say Fords aren't too bad either. My grandfather and uncle have been Ford guys for a long time. They seem to last quite awhile, and my uncle beats the tar out of his trucks. For me, it was a toss up between an F150 and a Tundra when my '99 Dakota went out. Was just a matter of what I came across at a good price first. Just so happened to be an '01 Tundra.
Is it me or do the people in Tennessee know cars? I have not seen one endless money pit in Scotty's videos since leaving Texas. Not one Audi, Mercedes, BMW.
I have a 98 T100 4x4 I bought new that my son drives now. Has over 260k miles and runs great. The 3.4L V6 is the most reliable truck engine Toyota ever made in my opinion.
Love everything Scotty say about this truck, however there is a major misstatement (2min 55) regarding the timing belt and the design of the engine. 2000 to 2004 V8 4.7l are NOT INTERFERENCE EMGINE. Therefore if your timing belt brakes, just get everything back in time and install a new belt. My son’s 2001 lost the belt at 75 mph on interstate, we bought it a few weeks back and obviously it desperately needed a new one. It was sitting for months and we should have replaced it immediately. Anyway, replaced this weekend and the Tundra is as good as new. I don’t recommend to wait until it brakes but this isn’t the end if it does. Luckily we knew 2 Toyota mechanics and they both told us not to panic, these models years are literally bulletproof. Hopefully this will help as the internet isn’t always right.
Good to know about the non interfence engine. I’m negotiating on price with a family friend about buying his 2002 tundra 4.7 2wd with 122k miles . Great mechanical condition and runs smooth..
I just bought a 2004 tundra double cab four-wheel drive with 249,000 miles, made in Indiana! Got a great deal on it! I will easily get another twenty years out of it!! Super excited
@@alanrodriguez125 I got it for cheap because it needed new ball joints and a few other minor things which I did myself and it was a family friend. I would buy it with 300,000 as long as it runs good and has been maintained, make sure to change the timing belt if it hasn't been done within last 100,000 miles. Also make sure there is no serious rust on the frame. Good luck.
Change the timing belt, water pump, tensioners, etc. etc. to the tune of $1300. Unacceptable design. There's a reason Toyota went to timing chains later.
I have 2005 Base 2door with a 4.0 V6, six speed manual, only mod is super spring, to my Kubota L4330 on 16' trailer. very nice truck gets 19mpg, bought it new for 12.500.00 has 270000 miles.
Lol 14 Grand for that thing.... FUK NO, look at the fkin paint n body it’s all shot, idc if it still runs well it’s a Toyota what do you expect, could have got one for half the price of that that mofo got ripped off lmao
show a toyota to my 84 f150 and they blush (84 made in canada 300 i6 and t18 manual trans) timing gear 6 cylinders in a row a granny low 4 spd 8.8 rear end no electronics
2/1/2024 found a 2000 tundra 2WD 4.7 with 162,000 miles, garage kept, and I swear the interior is mint. I feel like I stole it for $7,800 considering what they usually sell for
I’ve got 176k miles on my 2004 Lexus rx330 No issues other than oil changes, tires, and brakes. Just got the timing belt changed and hoping to get at least another 5 years out of her.
Scotty you never met a foreign car you did not like. You never met an American car you liked. I have had experience with both. And ever one I have had was a great car. Except for a fiat I owned once. It's all how you treat the vehicle.
I got a 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 w/4.8L 206,000mi later,...still going! All I've done was general maintenance and changed the radiator. FM part of the radio doesn't work and a coolant leak I can't find, other than that, still rides down the road. Next truck more than likely will be a...NISSAN TITAN! :p
@@AUDACITY4Uphotographer 2002 , we have the cable throttle link , 2005/2006 r fancy as hell with the double cab and back window that lowers , I would recommend those years if you are going to get a 1st gen , only years they made the double cab
Scotty every episode about tundras "These are the worst truck! Never get one" Scotty every other episode about tundras "These are the best trucks you could ever get!!! 1"
Toyota truck are outdated, even their 2021 trucks inside looks like 2000s designed with small Screen with not more them 50pixel lol a Nokia phone from 1996 is far more Advanced then Toyota Truck
V8 4.7L? 4wd? Check last time timing belt and water pump changed. If you can’t do yourself, will cost 750-1050 for a mechanic to do. How much are they asking?
@@Tommyturbo1981 : decent price if as MC C suggested about the frame (check for rust). Proof of TB/WP change is crucial, and if no proof done, knock off a grand. Take to mechanic to check tranny and 4wd gearing (if not used regularly, can be an issue). Good luck!
Ok, I’m looking at a 2003 Tundra with 87k from an elderly man. I’m looking at it for my son. He had the timing belt replaced 4 years ago at approximately 65k. Here is the kicker…he is asking 10k. The frame was under recall, checked out and it’s extremely solid. It’s an SR5 4x4 and the interior is mint. My question is…is 10k a fair price. I need help from you guys that are way more knowledgeable on Toyotas than I am. Thx so much.
If it’s like you said, BUY it! Really! You could keep that forever if you do oil changes at 3-5000 miles, and the regular Scotty suggested maintenance! Truly
He means the engines use no oil which is typical of a Toyota engine as long as you take care of it if you don’t it will break just like any other engine
That Toyota Tundra is not a full size truck. The first Tundra trucks were "midsize" trucks because TMC did want to compete directly with the Big Three. It was later increased in size to full size when it was accepted by the USA.
