I waste $ on auto insurance. 3 trucks, Suburban and 2 cars...just meBiggest thing I am surprised by is how little many of you guys drive your trucks! 5-10yr old trucks with less than 100K? I'm around 25-20k a year and don't feel I even drive that much.
I only put about 3-4K a year on my old Tundra. It was a 5 mile round trip commute to work and it took me up the canyon when I went hunting. Other than that, we took my wife's car.Biggest thing I am surprised by is how little many of you guys drive your trucks! 5-10yr old trucks with less than 100K?

Recall on the clutch/throw out bearing
Recall on the gas pedal getting stuck
Recall on the rear springs
Recall on the seat belts
And… the never ending frame rust Toyota was famous for and still somehow sold the shit out of Tacoma.
I got rid of it before the rust got bad.
The gas mileage was worse than my two 5.0 f 150s. My Tacoma was the 4.0, 6 speed, 2009 model.
The truck was a snap to work on. And it’s been well over a decade. It’s just the “bad things” nobody forgets
I am very interested in these new models though.
Is the ten year warranty through Toyota or a third party?Have a ‘24 Tundra and have had no issues so far. If you visit the tundra forum they’ve been keeping track of engine failures on the new ‘22+ model and the failure rate is very low, contrary to what most have posted here. I was also able to get a 10 year extended warranty for ~$1.5k for piece of mind as well which helps. Great truck, lots of power and really enjoy it. View attachment 710375
Toyota - sold through a dealership contact that does a lot of business through the Tundra forum.Is the ten year warranty through Toyota or a third party?
Is that available at all dealerships or just your specific one? Would definitely feel more comfortable with 10 year warranty on the new Tundra.Toyota - sold through a dealership contact that does a lot of business through the Tundra forum.

I've been looking at the GMC too, but I read bad things about their transmissions. Have you heard anything?I've posted multiple times, my 2015 F150 3.5 Ecoboost has now over 164k and the only part failure has been the exhaust manifolds(broken bolts).
Compared to my Toyota with the same mileage which had been through two water pumps, multiple body/trim issues, required new leaf springs at 60k and the rust holes in the frame weren't quite reaching 10mm which Toyota said isn't bad enough to replace under the frame rust recall, I'll take my chances with another F150.
I'm seriously tempted by the GMC 1500 3.0 Duramax, crap interior but that engine.....30mpg?
It’s available to anyone. The warranty is owned by Toyota and can be used at any dealership.Is that available at all dealerships or just your specific one? Would definitely feel more comfortable with 10 year warranty on the new Tundra.

Is that for 150,000 miles? Is that just for drivetrain and engine. My friend said he bought something like that.I was also able to get a 10 year extended warranty for ~$1.5k for piece of mind as well which helps.
