That is a nice Tundra. We have had at least thirty Toyota trucks of one form or another in my immediate family over the last thirty years, including an early Tundra and an early Sequoia, but if those things are making 400 HP I will consider one. Looking to downsize slightly from my Ford F-250 Diesel (although we still have '03 and '12 Tacoma's), was considering a Silverado or F150, but this Tundra, particularly the Limited, has my attention.

Thanks all!

I've gone through 1 tank of gas. It took me 19.66 gallons to fill up from the time the "low fuel" light came on (I was less than a mile for a gas station so I pulled right in). The truck's computer says I averaged 14.4mpg which included probably a 65/35 city/hwy split of driving.

I got it for $3500 off of MSRP. I've dealt with the same Toyota dealership and salesman for the last 4 or 5 vehicles we've purchased. Sticker was $46,500 I believe.

I drove the SR5 with the TRD offroad package and definitely liked it. The black microfiber interior is nice. But since this is something I will be using as a daily driver I wanted some of the little upgrades like nav and leather. It's like a nice SUV but with a bed.

Well, they don't, lol. I just edited my title. I went back and checked, it's 401ft/lbs of torque, but only 381hp. I had those two numbers flipped in my head since I'm so used to cars and the HP figure being the higher number.

Like I said, I'm a Toyota fanboy. There are a lot of nice trucks out there on the market, but the Tundra was my #1 choice all along. I was considering a used Raptor and a Dodge Ram 1500 too, but to be honest I don't think I was ever really considering anything other than the Tundra. The Tacoma has long been one of my all time favorite vehicles (not just truck, but vehicles period), but needed the greater interior space that the Tundra offers for my family. The Tacoma is just a little too tight in the back. I test drove one of those as well.

This will do all of my daily driving duties, all of my homeowner duties, and be a fun vehicle to throw all of the bikes in and take the family to the beach or mountains or whatever. It's like a more useful SUV. But see my post above, I had the HP and Torque numbers flipped, so it's not quite 400hp if that makes a difference in your shopping.

Soon man. Maybe Sunday?

I had a friend with a supercharged tundra, it was awesome but man did that beast suck fuel...

Speaking of sucking fuel...I showed up at the track today with a full tank, after 3 HPDE sessions I was on E so I had to fill up again before the 4th session. If my math is right it was about 5 mpg on the track. I'll get 25 mpg on the drive home though

Oh, almost forgot. Nice truck. I am a big fan of the Tundras. I ended up getting a Ram 1500 myself because of the newer technology, better fuel economy and rear coil springs. My dream truck would be if they put a 5.0l Cummins in the Tundra. I love the engine, but am not enough of a fan of it to buy the new Titan.
