If Toyota would make a bigger pickup that I could use, I might just buy one just to see what all the hype is about.

I'm now in the Toyota Tundra family. My carbon footprint is now Celebrity status. When you can afford to do it I would swap the factory air intake with a K&N or similar. Also get a high performance chip. Big difference and you will see better mileage. Part of the mileage issue is how people drive. I get 18 mpg in my '06 TRD 4X4 consistenly if I drive conservatively. That drops significantly if I drive 80 on the highway and punch the strip off the line at a red light.

Congrats John. I considered one pretty heavily before my last purchase. They do make a really nice pickup, and made in Texas.

Used Tundras hold value well, and crew max 4x4 especially holds value well.
The truck was probably $40k+ new even if it's just an upgraded SR5, so $30k for 2.5 yeas old and 18k miles is very reasonable.
They last a long time. Should be a good truck as long as you don't mind changing cartridge oil filters and bad gas mileage. Small price to pay for that type of reliability IMHO, but the low gas mileage could be a factor if they're dumping a ton of miles on it with no towing. You never miss an opportunity to post on tundra low mpg..why cant you realize SOME people don't buy vehicles because they just get a high mpg ? When I bought my 4runner the last thing I gave 2 s%^&s about was gas mileage.

I do like the 4Runners also. My wife has a Highlander that is just a few miles short of 150k and it's been flawless.
