Meet the One Million Mile Toyota Tundra Still with Its Original V8! 

Caleb Hogue Toyota did give him a brand new Tundra in exchange for his old one

No they did not. Why spread bullshit?

Even if that was true I wouldn't have taken it. Money far better spent rebuilding the old one.

what money? :D

So all taxi drivers will get new cars?

Cummins buys around 50 a year for testing.

My thoughts exactly. I can see some buying it to display for advertising but really like that they are going to tear it apart and use knowledge gained to make improvements or justify engineering decisions. Living in Ohio I can't see any truck surviving our metal-dissolving winter roads so it's amazing to see anything with this many miles as here it would be a pile of rust.

Idk what your talking about my grandfather has a 1996 f 150 with over a million and my dad has a 2006 f 150 with 500k don’t forget about ford man.

Honda and Ford both have as well.

Ford sucks you got 1 in 1,000,000 that lasted that long .....Yota man!

cesar nunez For Real! 😆

OMG!! Thats funny as hell! Just watched that Scotty video, he's usually pretty honest, Ford must have paid him alot of money! Really hurts Scotty credibility

joe fran 30,000 lol

Funny! My 6.2L high country was in the shop 6 times by 27k. Final time was for a leaking radiator! I traded it in on a 2018 Tundra the day the Chevy dealer gave it back.

HEALTH AND SAFETY BRO.

It can happen ANY TIME ANYWHERE so be PREPARED

That's the safety policy for the Toyota plant.

Because it makes him look official,nobody would take him serious if he just wore plain clothes.Trust me they tried it without the uniform and they only got like 14 views. XD

Standard "PPE" safety gear the helmet is a bump cap meant to protect against light bumps and scratches when working, manufacturing Toyota vehicles.

company policy and he has no problem with it because he is accustomed to it.

Ya I’m surprised he didn’t have roofers harness just in case he tripped.

Safety First....

You need it when your close to a Toyota

really? so u worked in Japan in the early to mid 90s? The LC has the engine as this one with 1m on it

or are te american ones different?

WN Continental Broadcasting This is a 2007 model . The powertrains were assembled in Alabama and the Tundra is built in Princeton, Indiana .

@@jennifercampbell2030 Thanks i was told by Toyota Media relations (i work for TV station) that the 4.7 in this unit was designed / produced in Japan. i think i had confusion as u made the item in 2000s at USA plant . thats cool. nice to see parts are interchangable with LC

WN Continental Broadcasting This is a 2UZ for 4.7, the ones in tundras and sequioas are American made, 4Runner/100 series/LX and GX 470 are built in Japan, but they’re all 2UZs

Amanda M went to gta and ran

That was a mechanically injected diesel. 12v to the fuel shutoff solenoid and that’s it. No ECU. I’ve pulled mechanical injection diesels out of barns after having sat for 15 years and they still run on the old diesel in the tank. Top gear’s test was entertaining, but hardly profound. And btw, that was a Hilux, which we don’t get. The Taco isn’t even close to the hilux in terms of capability.

Oh,the nostalgia!

Top gear is a setup show. Everything is staged, they make scrips for every show even before they review the vehicles.

@@taurinenrgy Yes some of the show is scripted but the Toyota Hilux wasn't scripted and was genuine.

This is true. Vehicles are designed to be driven. With proper care, any properly designed vehicle will do the same miles.

Vehicles are like women: miles and years are just a number. How the hold up is a matter of driving/living conditions and service/care. Some are already sick and ugly in their twenties, while others stay fit and look stunning well into their fourties and fifties... Long distance trips and regular maintenance are to a car what sports and a healthy diet are to people.

@@turboseize Women are like vehicles: The more owners they went through the less desirable they are.

Very well said

I want to see all the maintenance records and bills for the lifetime of the vehicle. See how much money it takes to keep a vehicle that upkept.

They all do that, its to feel more manly since the only machinery they handle is a pen

that would make sense but seems 1m mile cars go for a lot

WN Continental Broadcasting they are probably dirt cheap it has a million miles

Wrong!!! A million mile vehicle is worth millions in marketing. Further proof Toyota makes a dependable vehicle equals Billions in car sales. After watching this video I'm now looking for a Toyota Tundra.

MARZOSIRUS Toyota’s are ass

If this was in california, he will be spending atleast $200,000 on gas

That's funny. Great analogy!

Id say the hilux is

I’m a year late but if you get the chance, look up “Toyota Hilux” or even “Toyota Hilux top gear episode” on RU-vid (sadly the truck isn’t available in the US)

Dayumn miss that 2000s brick Lol !

That is insane... onetime I drove 4000 miles in a week and after I did not leave the house for 3 days

thats only something around 5 hours per day... not much

Mario on the Moon try 3000 miles in 3 days (across the country)

He won’t come out of his house for a year.

Gab riel that’s about 1/5 of your day driving. That’s alot

I have an 05 camry with 242000 miles on it. Great vehicle.

Mine made it to 385k those cares were tanks man.

i also have a camry. can you guys give me tips on how you do the maintenance?

lol @ using "Camry" and "beast" in the same sentence....

lightnin.K always back to basics i guess... Follow the maintenance schedule Replace the wear and tear abit before the actual time (to prevent it failing during use, which might damage other components) Dont overburden the vehicle (dont floor it, dont speed like a madman, dont overload) Keep it clean inside n out (to take care of the paint, so that the paint can protect the metal. To prevent dust and dirt ruining the wiring insulators) Drive easy when cold Try to avoid traffic jams (start and stop traffic is a guaranteed way to cut ur cars drivetrain lifespan by half). Troubleshoot asap any funny noises or weird driving sensations (jerkiness, unstable acceleration, rough noises from the engine or tires) Try to keep things stock and original/oem. Dont go cheap on parts.

Seriously. What if it made it to 2? 🤷

At $3.00 a gallon,getting 20mpg that's $150,000.00 just for the gas,lol.

Mark Wales you must be fun at parties

20mpg? you wish, those things average 14mpg thats not including the towing and hauling the additional weight.

+Sergio Tamez it depends how you drive it. 1300 km road trip and I averaged 18.7 mpg. that was driving it at the speed limit.

that's very impressive, I drive mine easy and i get 16mpg. either way 20mpg will never be seen in these tundras untill the engineers do something to that motor

They don't want to improve that... They'll go out of business if they allow every vehicle to run for a million miles. They want to it to break down eventually so you have to buy a new one.

Ry Zeus not necessarily the world record is held by Volvo by about 2million miles, also my Volkswagen transporter has 1.6 million miles not even gearing has been fixed or repaired the only thing I’ve done is put a bigger turbo on it not even the injectors have ceased, and not even the drivers seat is torn or worn through

I had a 98 Chevy Silverado with 862,000 on it before I traded it in on a 2012 HD. All I did was exhaust, starter and brakes. Some rust repair but I live in north central Pennsylvania. Heart of the rust belt. And I was in my 20s most of ownership.

Chancellor Wewuz what 862,000 inches? Lol jk did it have a 5.3

Justin Martin 5.3 yes.

Yea the 5.3 is a good engine. Don’t like the 6.0 though

It's not impossible to believe that they might want to make a quality product

thats fords mentality they've had the same v8 motors since 07. nice try tho tool

The courier company that I worked for had four econoline vans that all ran well with over 400k miles on them. Sure, it isn't a million yet, but all of them felt like they would last another 400k so long as service was done to them. I don't even like ford... I drive a Subaru. But I certainly wouldn't rag on their reliability.

With my experience with Fords I can actually rag on their reliability. Have not had good experiences with them, with either car or truck

The big tried that and be of that they almost went broke. Let the free market,the people, reign in a company that is willing to do the right thing.

The Tundra is a beast therefore he decided to wear that equipment

He wanted to feel like a man. He just holds a pen all day in his office

🤣

They did it as a joke! Come on live a little

Ppe

Same. !!!!!

dbruin03 I'm not going to replace ball joints unless they're bad... No point replacing them if there's still no play.

dbruin03 wish I had seen this 6 months ago! I broke a ball joint on my 05 tundra at 205,000 miles. Luckily I wasn’t going very fast at the time. Scared the heck out of me.

So, it's still cheap

Parker Hein I don’t know why you did this calculation but it needed to be done. GOD DAMN A

That's around $125,000 spent on gas based on only hwy mpg; more if city or combined.

James Rogers i’d hope so like god damn

@@hostilityy all write offs.

So he would get the full amount back in gas as a write off??

Thus far, this is the most intelligent reply from this video.

all car manufacturers do that, specially the German ones, they just don't record it and post it on the internet (some of them even take their competitors' cars to examine and learn from them).

Honda and Toyota are really the two biggest manufacturers for reliability. Even in fairly negligent hands, they can still last upwards of 200,000 and 300,000 miles. It'd be nice to see other manufacturers going the extra mile like we see here!

Matt Smith nothing surprising really, my 2004 Golf mk5 1.9TDI has about 370000 Km in it and it's still working like new and it's complicated as well with VGT turbo and stuff like that till now none of all that failed even the electric features like parking sensors auto headlights/whippers, auto dimming mirrors , climatronic.... are still working with no problem at all.

abd bach Equals out to about 229k miles, Pretty good. - :)

Exactly

You really cant kill one. You can drown it, burn it, demolish it from a building, hit it with a wrecking ball and it'll still run. Trust me, only 2 things can survive an apocalypse and thats roaches and Tacomas.

Bubba Nush You cant. They did everything to it and it still ran like a champ

You know what can kill a Toyota a GM radiator that leaked from the start and the truck overheated blew the motor

my dads 97 f150 made over a million with the original 4.2lv6. big deal

I drive that in a week in my tacoma, which is still under average. To think He had to fill up almost every other day and get tires twice a year, and brakes 1 or twice a year, and oil change once a month is insane.

It was all most likely billed directly to his company.

I drive 20k-30k miles a year on my 09 Toyota. I racked up 181,234 miles on it all ready. I also go through a set of tires one a year. I did at one point had oil changes every signal month. I was putting on 5k every month. Thing runs like a clock.

Ramo i drive about 200-300 miles a day my self i put 20k miles on my tacoma in about 3months of getting it & i do delivery's everyday all day averaging about 250miles each trip

At least he is probably good at doing oul changes himself

to be fair his odometer says 999,999 miles

Shawn White that’s the highest value the odometer can display lol

Seigin1 Hahahahahahahahahaha nice!

If it had a K&n filter it would not have lasted that long.

NATE DOGG my thoughts exactly

TheGomezIndustries Can’t stand Nissan for that CVT issue. My dad gave me his 2013 Maxima, (love it because it’s a Nissan) but the catch was I had to put a brand new CVT in it. The original one lasted 140,000 miles, so hopefully this one does the same or more. Seems like they wouldn’t want that issue as it would drive away the Nissan fans like me....Getting me a 240 soon lol

Mekhi Harris what about 2020 Nissan Titan or Nissan warrior do they have trouble I’m thinking of getting a new truck but don’t know not ford nor ram nor gmc or Chevy only good Toyota right what about others

John Mcclane Nissan motors are fairly reliable, but from what I know the Titan does not have a CVT, and a 9 Speed auto instead. That would most likely last longer than a CVT. Titan is not a bad truck by any means, but some people don’t classify it as a real “truck” because it wasn’t made by Ford, Ram, or Chevrolet.

John Mcclane Why gamble? Forget Nissan, ever since they merge with Renault they became shit.

this is 1 million though according to the thumbnail

imagine total cost of repairs

117 oil changes, 2 timing chain changes, and one transmission repair, all done by the same dealer. That's a lot of money.

+Michael Sabrsula oil changes are just maintenance that's not repairs...

Probably billed to the gas company he contracted with, or he had a company gas card.

more than what the truck is worth several times over

Joshua K I have a 2003 Toyota 4Runner original motor and transmission no rebuilds with over 500000 miles

Get v8 and a pair and watch out for a Chevy or get a real truck you g]could try that marty

Moose Chocolate has a tiny dick so a v8 makes him feel more secure.

Oh man that sucks ! I still have my 1993 Toyota 4runner sr5 v6 ! It has 454,967 miles on it currently, and it runs like its a brand new vehicle, and it never failed me. The shape in my opinion though is outdated, but still is much better than these new alien looking plastic pods FWD suv's on the roads today ! I recommend a new 4runner for you ! I will get one too in time. The new 4runner has the classic boxy shape but its more modern and looks fantastic in a world full of pods roaming the streets !

I have a 1996 with 267,000 have receipts for every bit of work that’s every been out into this truck we’re the 3rd owners

@@tiddbob4166 - I know it sounds preposterous, but the odometer already showed 100,000 when I bought it; I put more than 100,000 myself, and I was the third or fourth owner. The odometer is the old dialing kind, not digital. The truck came from a different country so its been driven quite a bit. It's highly possible that the odometer reached all 999,999 and clocked back to 000,000 ... or someone tampered with the dashboard before I owned it. But I don't think that a 1996 tacoma had only 100,000 when I bough it.

Yeah...... The engine has a timing belt. Not sure why he keeps saying chain. And you should always change the water pump and belt at the same time. And yes, its an interference engine, which is why they moved to the newer 4.6L in 2010. I hear its more reliable than the 5.7L.
