2006 Toyota Tundra SR5 review from North America
"The Tundra is a high quality truck at a good price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing yet, but there is a recall for the ball joints. Had the same problem with my 2002 Tundra.
General comments?
The 5 speed automatic is a nice feature, I get 15-16 MPG around town, better than my '02 Tundra.
This truck feels solid, handles well, and is very comfortable.
Early indications are this truck will be as reliable as my 2002 Tundra so I guess I won't complain about 1 factory recall.
I don't like the OEM tires, they are fine on dry pavement, but don't perform that well in the snow. I would have chosen something with a bit more aggressive tread.
