Toyota Tundra

"Holding together well for a truck that has driven in harsh conditions & 200k miles on it."

"Wish it was a four wheel drive instead of rear wheel."

"Awesome acceleration. Great response"

"It handles well and the acceleration (power) is very adequate, certainly mush better that the new RAV4."

"it is reliable pulling its weight & handles very well, can get outa its own way !"

"The truck handled very well locally and on the highway even with a full load."

"Good visibility and power"

"Best handling, pulling, hauling driving truck I've ever had and why, after 13 years of ownership, I keep it."

"Very good acceleration and handling. Very comfortable and quiet and smooth."

"It's a nice older truck for hauling stuff and beating around."

"The Tundra is nice, a good balance between capability and maneuverability. Drives well and is easy to handle."

"The truck has held up great and does whatever is asked of it."

"I drove a 1990 Mustang convertible before this truck and the truck was felt so smooth and sophisticated in drive ability, quiet and ride that it was a welcome change."

"Love the handling, power, and safety one feels while driving."

"Very responsive acceleration and breaking."

"With the V8 engine, accelleration is smooth and powerful."

"Fairly quick and handles well plus it's very quiet on the road for a truck. Great transmission."

"Everything works. Doesn’t feel like an old truck. Paint is still in very good shapee."

"Good acceleration, and handling. Good braking."

"4 wheel drive for excellent traction. Plenty of power to pull my boats, one was a 21 foot jet boat, the other is a 17 foot outboard."

"both are very good for a vehicle of it's vintage."

"still run great"

"Handling and ride comfort is not as good as used to be, but it still has original struts. Boots torn on CV joints, expensive to repair"

"Smooth, quick acceleration. Great to drive. The steering wheel has a little free play, not bad. Also a little annoying is that the steering wheel is not centered exactly when driving straight forward. This doesn't affect steering, just annoying."

"Still handles like the first day I bought it"

"acceleration much better than expected. Very dependable"

"The 2002 tundra gets better gas mileage and is much better easier to get into and drive than the newer tundra models"

"Turning Radius is poor"

"acceleration is not AS GOOD AS our 2016 Camry, but in general, it is a reliable work truck."

"Quick comfy"

"It feels great, like a large, wide footprint, very stable and confident. The V-8 performs really well."

"The brake calipers are too small and cause burn spots on the rotors which leads to wobbling."

"best truck on the road"

"Acceleration and handling are very good and the motor still runs like new after 230000 miles."

"Transmission seems a little herky/jerky on accelerations.Sometimes does not shift gears smoothly."

"Acceleration is good, it is a pickup truck so I don't race anyone. The handling is fair with too much body roll and vague steering. The truck is sprung too softly so it does feel soft and wobbly. Brakes are too touchy at slow speed with no feel."

"It's long in tooth now, but the best truck I have owned (some four trucks over the years). It is very comfortable on long drives, smooth for a 3/4 ton truck, handles well, too."

"Ride and seats are very comfortable"

"The legroom and seats in this vehicle are second to none. Even when compared to much more expensive luxury cars. I love the fact the center console does not go all the way to the dash and provides some carpet area in front of it. It makes the whole area seem larger."

"Best riding truck I have ever owned. !6 years old and no rattles."

"Seat could be more comfortable"

"The most comfortable truck I've ever owned and one of the reasons I keep it."

"Seats are comfortable, Very little outside noise. Ride is very good for a pick-up"

"very good ride for a 4wd truck"

"For a 15 year old vehicle, it still rides comfortably and quietly. No warranty issues and no minor or major repair issues. Oil changed every 3,500 miles. Only changes ever had were tires, normal wear; battery, once; front brakes, once. It should be noted that I also pull a motorcycle trailer"

"The ride and noise level of this truck are awesome for a truck. Very quite and smooth in the cab compared to all sorts of company trucks I have driven for work. The front seat while comfortable for short trips leave me stiff on extended rides."

"With the right tires, in my case Michilin Defenders, the ride is smooth and quiet."

"Enough room without being two big like the huge trucks of today."

"I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW, AS OLD AS IT IS, IT IS STILL VERY QUIET IN CABIN, DRIVERS SEAT IS STILL VERY COMFORTABLE"

"The seats are just as comfortable as when it was new"

"Fifteen years old and still rides comfortably"

"Could (have)drive it all day."

"The seats are comfortable in the sitting up position, but you need a pillow or something to support your head in the reclined position. The cab is fairly quiet, quieter than my camry by far."

"The seats are comfortable, but the wind noise can be very loud at speeds of 60 mph and higher."

"Seats noise and ride are exceptional for a truck"

"The cabin noise level is high. Newer trucks are much more quiet. Ride is pretty good for a truck."

"Good old truck"

"It's all gois."

"The seats are wide ans substantial, and the truck has a bench seat. This vehicle is only used for short rides; on a longer ride, I would a pillow for lumbar support. My main complaint is that the seat belt goes across my neck rather than my chest."

"Every is excellent with this truck."

"The ride is smooth, noise is low. Great for long highway trips. The driver's seat sags some (it is 16 yrs old) so I've added a seat cushion."

"Feels like a luxury car!"

"seating too low and uncomfortable. windshielt and sun visors also too low causing one to hunch over and bend ones neck to view traffic lights."

"Drove a Camry on a trip & the seats are the same in the Toyota. After 12 years the seats are just as comfortable. Ride is very comfortable."

"Both the heat and the air work very well and fast. The road noise inside is really loud."

"Very comfortable seating. Nice ride. More comfortable than Camary.on long drives"

"I`M 6 FOOT 11 AND I CAN SIT COMFORTABLY IN BOTH VEHICLES"

"O2 sensors had to be replace 4 times. Front end issues, tires not lasting, alignments having to done more often. Pulling power and hauling capability, controls, strong engine"

"Seats are about worn out and the lumbar control quit years ago."

"This truck has performed very well since I bought it in 2001. The ride has been very good for a truck. Seats are comfortable and heater and air cond. work well. The truck is quiet on the road. If this truck has a weakness it's in the factory equipped brakes. They are not large enough for this size vehicle."

"The seats are cloth and after 14 years and a complete detail they still look great. No Navigation system so all the controls have buttons and knobs.Everything works just great."

"I don't care for the cloth seats."

"Good"

"Size I love and quick handles well comfy"

"We love the bench seat. We love that the air conditioner has been powerful for 14 years. This is our "luxury" vehicle."

"Logical climate controls (has knobs for temp and selection). Quietest vehicle I've ever owned - can have a normal conversation at 70 mph without competing with wind noise and road noise."

"One of the longest lasting trucks I've known. Been very well used."

"With regular maintenance this vehicle has really held up. It runs well, and is still very comfortable."

"You get a reliable truck that will last for a long time. I would probably hang on to my truck longer but my family has out grown it and we need someone with a little more space. 2 child car seats will not fit very well in this truck. I can say I will be purchasing a Toyota Tundra with a crew cab for my next vehicle."

"This truck has been bullet proof. Dependable, tough, all terrain vehicle. Unfortunately, Toyota stopped making the mid-sized version of the Tundra and replaced it with a bloated version to compte with the Dodge Ram. Will not buy another Tundra as a result. Toyota had the best truck on the highway sewed up and walked away from it. Poor strategic move."

"Most reliable vehicle!"

"See prior comment as good trustworthy vehicle."

"Truck is been a great buy, 15 years old and the only issue has been some of the paint, but still runs great"

"purchased new in St. Paul, MN 01/03/2003 Got a great deal on this 2WD in winter, I perform routine maintenance & then some; after 14 years still worth high retail + (has no rust - almost perfect body)"

"Overall one of the best vehicles I have purchased"

"one of the best vehicle purchases I've ever made"

"This is an amazing truck - have had no problems with and expect to last another 150,000 miles!"

"truck is agile ( for a truck). it has power to pull its weight. when newer, i pulled a fully loaded trailer (3000 lbs +/-) up over one of our local passes at 65-70 mph & it muscled along with vigor ! it works well, if i drive at posted speeds it gets 25 mpg. i now haul kayaks on the top. it has been a great truck."

"Great truck. Paid cash and saved $5000 off sticker."

"Have had no major issues in fifteen years"

"Good looks. Few repairs. Handles great"

"Not every vehicle can go over 183,000 miles and fail to start and drive only twice. Both times I had not closed the doors fully and the battery was dead."

"This vehicle has lasted for seventeen years with very few problems. The air conditioner was replaced once, about eight years ago, and the tailgate doesn't open. Other than those problems, the maintenance seems to consist of replacing the tires and oil regularly."

"Truck is wonderful, right size etc.. Don't need a bigger truck."

"Truck has 151000 miles and it still performs on all levels. Extremely reliable. Well made. Comfortable. Expect to continue driving it for another 100000 miles."

"VEHICLE IS STILL IN DECENT SHAPE, TINY AMOUNT OF RUST, IT ALWAYS STARTS, ORIGINAL EXHAUST SYSTEM STILL IN PLACE."

"Still driving it Second best car I have owned"

"performs like it did the day i bought it (new in 2002)."

"mainly a reliable truck. did have to replace catalytic converter and a fuel tank strap (rear). wish the frame had less rust."

"Except for replacing the oxygen sensor(s) this vehicle has not had ANY mechanical problems and has never been in a repair shop. The 02 sensor replacement was covered under warranty. I do my own routine maintenance such as oil changes and brake work."

"The tundra has been very reliable. It is however not fuel effecient"

"best $23,000 I ever spent on a vehacle"

"SAME"

"Extremely reliable vehicle and easily repaired when needed."

"Best truck I've ever owned."

"Very disappointed with gas mileage, 16mpg. Also had trouble with oxygen sensors."

"Very dependable, good excelleration"

"bad gas millage - interior functions are sloppy- high road noise. dealers unwilling to take fare of airbag replacement - back seat unworkable for other passengers over 13,"

"Really low cost of ownership. Reliable, hard working with minimal repairs, The paint finish has not held up. After about 9 years of sitting daily in the hot Florida sun, the paint started to oxidize. The head light covers yellowed. It is a work truck and it works well - even after 14 years and 180,000 miles. It is still running and working well."

"very reliable truck, very comfortabe on the road, long trips."

"Like the style and size of truck."

"We have had more incidental repairs issues with 2002 Tundra than we ever had with our 97 4Runner. (exhast systems/AC thermostat & condenser/ fabric seats worn out/)"

"I paid 500.00 more than was paid to get it to lot. Best deal ever! paid cash at the time they were getting new vehicles and had appointment with sales manager? This truck has been bullet proof, just my maintenance. use mobile 1 and change every 3000 miles. you can pull the dip stick out when I change it and it look brand new. lot of miles!!"

"Wish they made a new version of this size pickup. New Tundra's have poor gas mileage (13 mpg) and are physically too big. Tacomas are priced nearly as high as the Tundras and are underpowered."

"327,000 miles without any major problems!"

"I paid less that $14k for this vehicle in 2002. While I put only 7500 tough miles a year on it, it has been the most reliable of the ten new vehicles I have owned in my lifetime. My only squawk has been that the headlight covers crazed over in time and I had to spend three or four hours reconditioning them. I regret that Toyota no longer sells a stick shift Tundra."

"Thisversion of the Tundra is much better than the larger version that replaced it. As a result, rather than buying a new Tundra I am determined to keep my 2002 alive. So far, at 137,000 miles it operates exceptionally well."

"Back seat door. Awkward"

"I think the Tonka toy look of all the new trucks has lost it luster. We had our 2002 SR5, extra cab in the shop for regular maintenance and a complete detail. They gave us 2016 SR5, 4 door for a loner. Now I know why they have front, rear and side camera's. Every corner of the truck was in a different zip code."

"The Tundra is the perfect body type especially because body type the new Tundra's is getting roomier yet more inconvenient if you have to park in a tiered lot. The bigger trucks can't fit while the 2002 is perfectly sized to fit parking spaces, covered garages with a height limit and extremely roomy and comfortable inside"

"No wasted areas in styling. Functional and clean. Toyota got this one right."
