    Hi everyone. My first Tundra..my first pickup!
    2007 Tundra limited with 16,000 km(10,000miles).
    I have always been a toyota fan, I have owned a few thoughout the years, I like this one the most.
    This pickup is in better condition than my 2021 4runner!

    Good looking truck. Every Gen 2 needs the Seqouia LED headlight and front end swap.

    Thank you. It was garage kept in alberta, canada and never winter driven. It's almost like it was vaccum sealed. No rust, dust nothing. It's had a few oil changes over the years and a battery 6 years ago.. original tires 80%tread.
    I was planning on doing transmission drain and fills with the next 3-4 oil changes. I will change different and t-case too.

    Heckuva find. I would get new tires though. Hard to trust 16-17 year old tires.

    Yes. That front end looks really nice. It is on the list now. Any tail light suggestions?

    Yes, tires make me nervous. Surprisingly no cracking. Never seen UV light I guess.

    Best bet is to stick with OEM. They just work. Not as sexy, but you don’t have to worry about them. There are some nice aftermarket options that have LED DRL style lighting in them. Quality is usually suspect and many report LEDs going out or water intrusion. I bet that most don’t have a problem with them and we just hear about the failures.

    Thanks. I found it on a local classifieds. It was a little pricey but way less than the new nissan frontier I was about to order.
    I'm still a little nervous about the age, so far so good though.

    Mines a year older than yours and is still purring like a champ at 135k miles. I don't think that you have much to worry about.

    Nice find and congrats! I'm sure that you'll love it.

    I couldn't believe it when I saw it in person. Even my wife, who thought I was crazy for even going to look, jumped on board.
    I bought a low mileage 16 year old toyota once before, a 1981 Celica Supra, it was the best car I have ever owned
