Keep in mind gasoline is going to be $2/L+ so no whining lol.
Theres a fantastic guy on youtube, car care nut, he's a Toyota master tech. Watched his video about what to look for in a Tundra, he mentioned the cam towers as they are a pricey item to fix. Will look for oil leaks, thanks all for the heads up.

I'm fully aware that buying a V8 truck will not result in a 3 cylinder hybrid type of mileage. I hate high gas prices as much as anyone else, but the fuel mileage of my vehicles is what it is.

I also wouldn't mind a F150 with the 5.0.

I'm not interested in buying a GM and spending a few grand to do a AFM delete.

I'm not interested in buying a GM and spending a few grand to do a AFM delete.Buddy at work just took his '18 with 80k kms in for a "diagnosis" last weekend. He was told $7500 to $15000 depending on if it needed work or a new engine. He went home with a new truck. Haha. Lots of guys out there with lots of miles also, so I dunno. Would be nice to have a stat on how common it is.
When did the 6.2L go DI? It's settled then; a GMT800 with the 6.0L or an older Tundra before they got the douchey hood.
This?

What about a new Tacoma?
Quote from: ktm525 on May 03, 2024, 03:51:59 pmWhat about a new Tacoma?I didn't even bother looking at it, turbo, DI, too many moving pieces. Maybe I'll go have a look, but unless they made the cab for adults, its not even in the running.
Do us all a favor, put a deposit on a new Landcruiser. Edit: or an old one. I believe in you! https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/calgary/1989-toyota-fj62-landcruiser/1691112934
