2001 Toyota Tundra SR5 review from North America
"Great truck, will buy another"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced a squeaky serpentine belt.
Performed regular maintenance, non-synthetic oil, Toyota factory filters and "parts"
General comments?
Powerful enough for me, great accelleration on passing.
Am impressed with the V8, Lexus derived.
Gets over 20 MPG on highway trips, overall about 17 MPG in my actual driving experience.
Others have reported problems with the O2 sensor.
Toyota sent a letter extending the O2 sensor warranty.
Hard to beat a company that takes responsibility.
Hear they plan an update, bigger truck for '07.
I might be in the market for a new one.
Maybe not bulletproof, but close to it.
I'll buy an American truck when they can compete.
