Thanks to our Tundra

[KK4YZ]

We bought an off lease 2015 Tundra CrewMax 5.7 a few months ago when we decided to get the 23D instead of the 19' FC. We absolutely love it.. and it does a great job pulling the airstream.

Everyone has their preferences but my experience with Toyotas has been the best.

I had a 2009 Camry Hybrid with almost 170K miles on it. It never had to have ANY repairs, just oil changes, tires and one set of brakes. It got rear ended-hard and totaled. Right after I settled with the other guys insurance ( Allstate) I went out and bought used low mileage 2012 Camry Hybrid. After putting 40K miles on it, it looks like it'll run just like my '09.

I think Toyotas are bullet proof. That's why we focused only on the Tundra when looking for tow vehicles.

We are a Toyota family so another Tundra is in our future. We just have to find the right combo of price, mileage and tow package

Amen, my Tundra brothah from anothah mothah...

Sorry about your Tundra.

A friend of mine owns a 15 year old Tacoma and last year he received a recall letter about frame rust. He took it to the local dealer and they replaced the entire frame at no charge.

I just had my first check engine light on my 10 year old, 140k mile Tundra this week. I needed to replace the gas cap. $9.

Yes I wondered how it was that Tacoma frames could be replaced but not Tundras but decided to just make lemonade.

Closing in on either a 2009 or 2010 Double Cab 5.7L with tow pkg and all under 110,000 miles. Hope to be back in a Tundra by the weekend.

Maybe I should sell you mine and go get another one...
CrewMax Limited 58,000 miles-

[Goal15]

Thanks but probably out of my price range

[m.hony]

In the neighborhood of $22,000-ish I think is fair private party sale value.
Not sure I could part with it, though...
If I could, I could get a 4x4 with the 36 gallon fuel tank.

We are back in business. Found a 2010 Tundra, gently used that should pair nicely with the AS

Sky Silver Metallic is the best color.
Did your wrecked Tundra have towing mirrors that you can salvage?
Towing mirrors are available on Amazon.
$176 both sides.

[Goal15]

No couldn't salvage the tow mirrors so we are starting over on those and step rails. I did save my brake controller

Dana

$175.99 for both mirrors on Amazon is a great deal.
I thought I got a great deal from discountautomirrors.com back in 2012 at $115 each- $230 for the pair.
