2008 Toyota Tundra

We bought this truck used 2 years ago with over 200k miles on it and it has been a great vehicle. We love driving it and riding in it. It gets good gas mileage for such a big truck. We drive it around town and on long trips through the mountains and it performs great. We’ve had offers to buy it from us for more than what we paid but we won’t sell it.

Extremely reliable and dependable

I have had my Tundra since 2010. I have used it nonstop since I bought it in Visalia. I now live in Southern California and it hasn't given me any problems. I've used it to tow cars and move household equipment and goods.

Bed Rust

I had Linex Bedliner sprayed in when new because I have heard that plastic ones get rusted underneath. Toyota had recalls for Tundra and Tacoma frames rusting through. I had mine coated for free yet the bed wasn’t included and it has rusted at every bolt. I brought it up to the service department and got a “Too bad it ain’t covered “. So now I need a new bed and everyone I have looked at is rusted out in the same place. I don’t think I can get a factory new one. It was definitely a design problem as the reinforcements were spot welded with no room to sand and repaint under them. It seems like one way to make you buy a new one. I know woodworking so it won’t be me buying a new one. It will probably become a oak flat bed first.

Still driving it

My truck looks just like the picture. I will let you make up your own mind. Truck has 414,000 miles to date. had to fix transmission at 392,000. I guess they don't make them like they use to. After 12 years the stick on chrome is wafering. Interior has maintained excellently.

Maybe the best Vehicle I ever Bought

Since 2000, I have owned three Toyotas. First was a new 4 runner. I went over 250k miles. A few non-maintenance repairs but nothing that major. Then, I bought a used 2006 Tundra with 56k miles on it. I drove that to over 250k miles. Again, a few non-maintenance repairs but nothing that major. Drove great city but when needed the 4 WD always had balls. Now, I am driving this 2008 Tundra. I went over 212k miles today. I bought with about 80k miles. I have done nothing but maintenance (Oli, tune ups, tires) and it still rides great. It has been borrowed to move so many things for friends, It looks great. 4WD is amazing.

Love the engine.

The transmission went out at 120,000. Not very pleased. Rebuilt transmission was $4000 with a year warranty - horrible. The trucks don’t have the latest electronics as they should. Good engine in an AVERAGE truck.

2008 Tunda.

12 years old and no rust. 150,000 plus miles. Runs well and very little maintenance. Good Torque and power. Lots of cup holders and storage. Two little things I don’t like are no transmission fluid dipstick. No compass.

this truck has 389,000 miles on it and has just got a transmission repair.

This truck hauls 2,000 lbs. in the bed of the truck every month I will continue driving it until it gives up. Hauls very large loads with all most no notice on my part. Just change the oil and filter and its ready.

Wish I would have gone Toyota sooner

What is there to say that hasn’t been said before. I wish I wouldn’t have bought my previous truck without looking at a tundra first. My tundra is the same year and leaps above my old Sierra. I love my truck.

2008 Tundra 4x4

Best vehicle I’ve ever owned. It’s been very mechanically dependable with proper regular maintenance required for all vehicles. Bad front rotors warp after a few thousand miles. Rust issues that Toyota will spray the frame but won’t remove the bed to spray the top of the frame. Bed also rusts out from the underside up with a sprayed on liner. Toyota leaves you on your own after the warranty is up. The problem took me 10 years before it came through. I was always going to the car wash for under carriage wash after snow to wash off salt and chemicals.

175000 miles and running like new still!

I bought this truck with 75000 miles on it and it didn’t take long to fall in love with it. I mean with a 5.7 V-8 381 Horsepower Engine that will run with the big dogs all day long and leave them in the dust that night what more do you want?

Tuff

I've driven all brands that offer basic trucks... Ok, unless the dollars are spent that increase the expense... I'm living this Toyota Tundra. The Tundra may not be American made... but Hot Damn is it made for American's.!!!

Great overall truck

Great overall truck if you don't need gas savings for long driving if you're not worried about that. One of the best trucks out there if not the best. I have a limited model and I enjoy all the interior features the leather seats that are heated and electronically adjustable also the 5.7 L motor has more than enough power what I use it for

best pick i have ever had. i have owned them all and there is no comparison.

i have owned every make of pick up in the country, except for the international, and the toyota is by far the best. if you can get people to come in and drive one they will want one. i also own an '07 camry and a '97 sc-400 lexus. i am constantly amazed what a wonderful auto they all are.

Great Reliable truck

Bought used and have never regretted it. Great for moving stuff, hauling dog and family and just about any need. Rides good in town and on highway. No complaints except the seats aren’t as comfortable for long trips.

Two thumbs up!

Best truck I have ever had hands down. Beats out any and all other truck brands in every category. Dependable, always reliable and never lets me down. All I do is keep up basic maintenance and keep it clean.

Easy failures

The vehicle runs well but numerous and expensive failures are happening, like with electric window movement, tailgate latches and seals in the drive train.
