2002 Toyota Tundra TRD 4X4 review from North America
"Stong, quality built, high safety rating, rides like a dream"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No major problems. The motor is a little noisy on cold starts if the temp. is in the 30s or below, but quiets down after it warms up.
The serpentine belt squeals a little if it's cold and moist outside, but will stop after the motor warms up. A shot of silicone spray seems to help quiet this. The back seat area is a little small and upright for adults, but fine for the kids.
General comments?
I love the way this truck handles. It rides better than any American made truck I've have rode in and most cars for that matter. Even with the off road suspension, it rides like a dream. The small v8 is power-full and responsive. This is a quality built truck and I expect to get at least 200,000 miles out of it. When I tow my bass boat, I can hardly tell it's there. If I had to go out and buy an other truck today, it would be a Tundra.
