Damn, absolutely badass!

Bro, there must have been some issues with your truck...how was it that cheap..?

I’m buying a 2000 single can av8 with, believe it or not, 64k miles only. Best $2k spent

True, but the 7/8th size of the 1st-gen is enough to turn off many of the ignorant.

I think the prices are holding at this point. It may be going up a bit since new trucks are so expensive nowadays and these first gen tundras are extremely reliable.

Already Way up ⬆️

Yes they are. Thanks for commenting.

How many miles does yours have now?

Did you ever do that tuff country lift? I’m considering the same but not sure if you have to cut the frame. Plus, it retains original struts and only gives you a spacer. Not too good.

What kind of gas mileage are you averaging? 2WD or 4WD?

@@gettothepoint4562 I have the 4wd. One size larger tires and I average 13.5 the last two times I went on the same 225 mile trip. 100 miles of that was with the cruise set at 80 (that's our speed limit on the interstate here in South Dakota). So not good. Don't know how a little motor can push so much gas through it. The same trip, same speed I will get over 20 with my 2017 silverado 6.2l

Very good V8. Thanks for commenting.

The 05-06 are exactly the same. The reporting requirements by whatever agency changed slightly hence the small variation but the engines are the same. So the difference is on paper only.

@@anthonygiordano3991 yeah after looking deeper into it, I realize I want to keep from cutting the frame, so I’ll just end up doing a nice pair of shocks and level it out. Maybe one day once it has 300K I’ll turn it into a pre-runner build.

@@joeymoore6206 - Good idea. I’m thinking of doing the same. Thanks for the feedback! By the way, I like your picture.. ✝️👍🏼

for sale?

@@josephdavis336 Thanks for asking. No, the truck is not for sale. It's my daily driver and the only truck I own.

Appreciate the comment. It was indeed a sweet 1st gen.

Curious as to what your gas mileage is. 2 or 4 wheel drive?

Wow great price WOW

Did you ever find out if the double cab lights will fit?

Idk where your located, but if you buy one down south, chances are you won't encounter the frame rust issue. Many of those rusted have been due to the salting of ice roads... that's just from the research I've done. I live in TX and mine had no rust

what bonus does limited get you over a, say, sr5 with off road pkg? Leather? that leather now is super cracked on almost every tundra i've ever seen.

@@adamklotzify limited Quinty' or production not truck badge.

I've only seen maybe 2 step side thiccies here in Houston

I would go over the truck and change the filters and fluids. If it hasn’t had any documentation of a timing belt replacement, I would look into replacing it.

I don’t remember. They might have been. Is what it is. Still a head turner. Thanks for commenting.

@@gettothepoint4562 are these tail lights a mod?

That's really good deal. Like insanely good. I bought my access cab 05 for 7800, and that was a good deal lol.

@@ivanvasiliyvich9745 Yea I'm a bit nervous. The "too good to be true" kind of nervous. Unless there's a sticker for the timing belt, I will change that soon.

@@TheAdventureAuto my reg cabs been a flawless beast after fixing the rollover damage

Lift kit comes with new upper ball joints

SOS lowering kit

Lower ball joints is the single most important consumable part, that and timing chain. Only use OEM lower ball joints they need to be changed every 90000 miles it’s an extreme weak point. I have a 06 as well

Greg- I bought my 01’ Tundra when I was 16 because my dad insisted it was one of the best trucks he’s ever owned (Currently 20, my dad owning a 10’). I’ve tried to run the cheaper route the best I’ve could and it’s worked out well for me so far. -Rough county 2.5” puck spacer- $280 (If you do a puck spacer, make sure to do upper control arms, it’ll ruin your ball joints) JBA uppers-$518 Bull bar style brush guard (if you live in the country) -$130 OERDO 23” light bar (can mount to bull bar) -$65 BFG KO2s- best tire I’ve owned, definitely lives up to the hype Vision Manx 398- roughly $750 beadlock style, similar to the FJ cruiser TRD beadlock at a reasonable price. I never pulled the trigger but I’ve always wanted to All light housing replacement (if you have yellowed headlights)- $180 I replaced all 6 housing units (4 in the front, 2 in rear). It definitely helps the truck not show it’s age as much. That’s just some of the stuff I’ve done. Cosmetic stuff is cool and all but in my opinion, maintenance comes first. What’s the point in having a cool truck if it doesn’t even run lol. One example of a big thing I’ve put off for a while is a timing belt ($1200-$1500 at a shop). I’m going to do it on my own but I’m planning on $300 in supplies and 10 hours of my time. The 4.7 is known to last a while, just make sure you keep up on the maintenance. Hope this helps!

Looking for the samething I don’t believe at 4.5 inch you have to cut anything also he has bilstein 5100 adjustable shocks found them online for 479.96 for the 4 set

Nvm found a manual .. you do just two cuts ! media.dpioffroad.com/service/upload/assets/Tuff%20Country/55900_Installation_Instructions.pdf

@@lucasornelas6113 - Thanks for sharing this.. much appreciated!

@@anthonygiordano3991 plan on doing it to mine with a lift kit you’ll have to cut

@@lucasornelas6113 - Do you have to actually cut the frame? I don’t think I would be able to do this myself.. I would definitely need help.

Trying to figure this out I’m guessing either 01 mm or 10 mm ??? Can’t be 15 mm or 25mm

That’s why it’s awesome, a mid size truck with a V8

They need to make a couple years of this truck again. I don’t need a massive over sized tree scraper, I need a mid sized v8 with a bed that will hold two elk and 4wd to get me out of the mtns

🤢

05-06 I believe had these

Amazon has them for about $100

@@Zoom-ui2pf they fit the 00-02 as well?

@@MerlinMetals yes they fit any AC tundra 00-06

Not 2000-2004. Power was 245/315 for the first four years and then in 05 they added vvti and variable intake runners which brought the power up to 271/320 and flattened the torque curve quite a bit. As well as the 5 speed trans that was introduced for those years

I’ve heard of burning oil but not leaking oil mine is sitting at 250 K no problems

@@lucasornelas6113 that’s odd I’ve heard of all types of leaks on these. The contrary not burning oil. I’ve got a friend whose leaking atf and engine oil and it burns because of where it’s leaking not really internally

Mine has 308k on it and no problems burning oil or leaking oil at all

@@willburris3793 this one is 155K no burning oil within the engine, leaks a crazy amount from the heads and rear main seal that’s where it’s burning

380k miles no leaks no oil consumption

Worth it for the reliability and longevity though, in my opinion.

it's fast too vroom vrooom

Go slow lol 😆

@@stevejeffrey11 I wouldn’t call it fast but it’ll get you there

i’d rather hear someone who’s had more experience but to each their own.

Exactly. Guy is super annoying with his interjections.
