2000 Toyota Tundra SR5 Access Cab 4WD review from North America
"It's a Toyota, it'll still be running when the domestic competition is retired to the junkyard!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely nothing has gone wrong with this truck. It's been great so far.
General comments?
My Tundra has a beautiful Imperial Jade Mica (dark green) paint job that is stunning when clean.
It has a bench seat interior with a fold down center console with a very useful coin holder to keep loose change from rattling around. The cupholders can hold a lot of beverage containers which is good. It also has alot of power outlets, but I have use for only one, radar detector, of course!
The radio is the best stock radio I have ever heard, clear crisp sound. I will still likely to upgrade it within a few months.
The V8 has to be one of the most powerful I've ever driven. For a truck, it accelerates with authority. The engine is also very quiet with a subdued rumble from the exhaust. I have been guilty of squealing the tires on this rig :-)!
My only complaint would have to be the gas mileage. But it's a truck, so I didn't expect Prius-like economy. It only requires 87 octane as well, another plus with gas prices as they are.
