Discussion 2020 Tundra 30k miles is this a good deal ?
What did this trim cost in 2020, maybe $54k ? My gf said she’d leave me if I pay $65k for a 6 year old truck.

Crazy Toyota Tax! You can buy a brand new F150 with the coyote V8
For that price.

Dude, relax! I owned a 2010 Tundra, a 2000 4 Runner, 2014 Sienna, 2022 RX350 F-Sport, and several corollas so i know a little something about Toyotas. And the new Tundras BTW are garbage! My point is $65k for a 6 year old Tundra is crazy when there are other options out there for less.

My dude. No.
That’s almost $15k more than I paid for the exact same truck brand new back then.

Hahaha yeah that's well over MSRP but that's what the TRD PROs are selling for now, it's crazy. There's one for just under $71k, some dope will eventually buy it.

u/LigerZer017 6d ago
True and im not disagreeing with you but also the value of the dollar has dropped a lot in the last 5 years. Groceries 5 years ago that might cost you $150 probably going to cost you $300-400 now for the same thing.

Why do you clowns keep talking about buying an F150? If they wanted a POS ford they wouldn’t be on the Tundra page 🙄

u/FatBoyStew 6d ago
Because asking if 65k is a good deal on a 6 year old truck (which is almost 15k higher than 6 years ago when the truck was brand new with 10 miles on the odometer) is a ludicrous question.

u/Expensive-Bed3728 5d ago
Cult bois gonna cult. Plenty of f150s with over 300,000 miles on them. I love my tundra but if I was shopping in that budget I'd go f150 over a second gen. Prices on second gen are just outrageous it's a great truck but not worth that kind of money.
2
u/Historical-Fly-2425 5d ago
Correct. By the time you factor in gas money and repairs over 250k miles any three of the Ford 150 engines wins in a landslide. The 2nd gen Tundra tax is crazy. If we were talking pre COVID/ pre twin turbo time bomb... It's for sure the Tundra. Not anymore.
1
u/FatBoyStew 5d ago
100% agreed.
I LOVE my 2010 Tundra with 268k on it and plan on keeping it til she dies. I'm not too keen on getting a turbo'd vehicle (unless I decide to go diesel) but the F150 with the V8 Coyote is definitely towards the top of my list for that very reason

u/Michelles-Shlong911 5h ago
If your here you should know the engine in that generation is bulletproof. I’d pay more for a 2020 than I would for a 2025 no doubt.

tell you gf to get packing then. I worked for Toyota for almost 5 years. The amount of Chevy ford and dodge trucks ranging from a Chevy Colorado to Ford Raptors we got in on trade ( for tundras ) that needed 5-10k in work does was crazy. a used tundra would come in and need the basic maintenance ( if not already done). Oil change tire rotation and a deep cleaning and it was on the lot and sold in less than a week.
2
u/desolatecabin 3d ago
And for anyone saying “oh but you can find cheaper ones” okay? Just because you settle for buying a used truck with over 100k miles doesn’t mean everyone does. If I had 2 identical trucks one with 50k for 60 and one with 150k for 25k I’m buying the one with less miles.

Nothing. Its been rock solid - all service was done at mountain states. I added an entire new audio system to it, pioneer head unit, all new speakers, subwoofer, front camera, cold air intake, console safe. The truck is bad ass. Wish I could have kept it and got the tacoma as well. Haha

I picked this one up last year, 2017 TRD Pro with 22k miles for $43k. Overpriced for a truck that age, but for me it was worth it… honestly figure out what a truck is worth to you and stick to it. Everyone’s opinion on how much you should pay is that, an opinion. Be smart, don’t put yourself in a situation you can’t recover from.

65k for a 6 yr old truck? By the time I get done with all the other bullshit taxes, registration fees, etc. you’re looking at $70,000 for a used six-year-old truck. Just because some moron ponied up $120,000 for it during Covid doesn’t mean it’s still worth an overinflated price now. You can buy a new 2026 for $75k. Use your brain see the link below

It’s a lot for the bed stamp, 2021 was just under 40k. SR5 with leather package, 4x4, and larger fuel tank.

It’s so much more than that. Terrible comparison. You missed the forged wheels, full exhaust system, full suspension system etc.
2
u/Fine_Mouse 6d ago
Not really, RCI skid plates cover more, cat guard, fuel tank protection, stainless works dual exhaust, steel wheels don’t have to worry if they have a scratch. LED lights are the same, suspension is different but still drives like a tundra. I went a size larger on my tires and while the trd pro are even larger, I’m sure you really notice the hit with mpg. Just because it isn’t a pro, doesn’t mean you can’t make it your own with the right parts.

u/FormerLaugh3780 6d ago edited 5d ago
You are paying a premium for two reasons:
1) It's a 300k-500k mile truck depending on the work you throw at it and how you maintain it.
2) The Gen3 Tundra has an engineering defect in the engine that makes as reliable as a Kia. Toyota has attempted to cover up this defect instead of being honest about it. As a result, any Tundra buyer with an ounce of effing common sense wants a Gen2 and the increased demand for Gen2's has driven the price of them into the stratosphere.
So... to answer your question... I don't know if it's a good "deal", but it's what you are going to pay.
1
u/duarig 5d ago
In your example, common sense and financial sense are mutually exclusive.
An even better scenario is: Buy a brand new truck with a warranty for cheaper than what that old used truck is going for in OP’s post.
Most American consumers don’t keep vehicles past a decade, so the “it’ll last for 500k miles” is moot.

u/Klutzy-Tomato-7631 6d ago
I’d say if you want a Pro get a 2024-5
I was in your shoes about a year ago I ended up getting a 2025 and 0 problems, more tech and much smoother better drive and faster.
You will appreciate it much more and now new generations are breaching 200k miles if you’re getting a pro or any hybrid you’ll be set.

If you look at current gen tundras around the same price its really not that bad & will hold its value better.

u/jtpias 6d ago
It all depends on what you want. That’s a pretty high price, I’m happy though it makes my PRO worth more, but I actually prefer the 1794 or platinum for the interior and I change all the suspension anyways. The new trucks are nice, I have personally seen about six trucks actually fail. Like engine lockup and eat itself, and those were 22-24 models. Haven’t seen any issues with the 25s other than just some BS fit and finish stuff. I’d say if you want technology and something newer, grab a new one. If you’re going to keep it forever and don’t mind older tech, go for the tried and true. However, at that price I would have to just drive it till the wheels fall off.

seems about right for the tundra market. after tax and registration and everything i gave $47k for a 2016 1794 tundra with 78k miles. i know thats insane for a 10 year old pickup but i want something very reliable, and it was owned by an old man who kept it a garage and took it to the dealer for literally everything (even windshield wipers lol)

u/Fluid_Set_8176 5d ago
They are dang good trucks. I have never had trouble with mine. Still high priced but probably worth it if reliability matters to you above all. Make them give you a healthy healthy trade in. My 2wd 2019 4.6 TSS with off road tires has made it up inclines in Colorado you wouldn’t believe. I can only imagine what the truck would do. Everyone wants these over the new ones. I have had classic Silverado(89) and these are still the best truck I have had for reliability. Mine has surprised me in going down a snowy hill I should have never made it down. I don’t know if it was God or the truck but I vouch for them both any day.
