The Second Gen Tundra is the next Land Cruiser 100

At least that is my opinion. Thinking about reasons the Land Cruiser 100 and 80 series are still so popular today, it comes down to the fact that they could do the job that they were designed for and could do it with incredible reliability.

Compared to the competition in their segment (Ford Expedition, Jeep Grand Cherokee, and the like), there were far fewer built and sold. Those same things are true for this second gen Tundra.

100 percent agree that’s why I’m keeping my 2021 4x4 TRD Off Road

I think of the 2nd Gen Tundra as the DC3 of trucks. Overbuilt, reliable and functional in the ways that matter. Will still be relevant years from now.

I love my first gen Tundra double cab, but I'm really considering selling it in the near future to get a second gen Tundra. My wife and I have been camping more in the past few years, and I really would appreciate the extra horsepower, torque and extra transmission gears that the second gen has. My brother in law has one, (2012 model) and the times I've driven it, I have been very impressed. Great video.

I drive the exact same truck. I agree. I suspect the value will hold.

2017 4x4 TRD SR5 owner here of a black beauty. I get compliments everywhere and nods by Raptor owners. I haven't towed anything and have heard Tundra's particularly don't like to tow uphill but I'm sure it depends on the load. That may be the only real downside.

Love my 2018 1794! No plans to get rid of it!

I have A 2011 tundra crewmax 5.7. 2nd owner. 230k all iv done is change brakes, tires and oil. I tow a boat and a camper. Never let’s me down.

Look at the 2000-2004 Tacomas to see what the 2019-2021 Tundra's will be like. Only until recently you could sell a Tacoma of that era for $18-21k depending on the truck and the options. I remember 3-4 years ago seeing TRD Off Road manual transmission trucks going for $18, 000 with nearly 200, 000 miles on them.

I could see the Tundra doing the same especially TRD Pro and 1794 editions. I think they'll stay in the high $40k-$55k for a very long time.

Hi I have been using your videos for help on my tundra purchase. Super helpful.
I live in North Texas, don’t off road and the only scenario I can see myself being in for 4x4 is when it snows once a year(more like ices) and maybe a trip to big bend but let’s be honest, I’m not going to heavy off road.
Going to purchase a very clean 2021 SR5 with TRD Sport package @ 30k miles…only downside to me is its 2wd.
Any reasons you would advise to stay away from a 2wd? My plan is to keep it for at least 15 years lord willing so resale isn’t my highest concern but just going back and forth and would like some input if you have any. Thanks!

Since the land cruiser 200 and the second GEN tundra share the same transmission and engine wouldn’t it be fair to say that the second generation Tundra is the next Land Cruiser 200? 🤷🏻‍♂️Lol

MY 2007 has 218K on it right now. I just went to Denver from Pa to pick up this truck because I wanted a rust free vehicle and I got it. The truck had 213k on it when I bought it but I never even flinched about the mileage. I've put some money into this truck when I brought it back to Pa because I hope to get 400K out of it. I was Chevy my whole life (69 now) but never again. Chevy is a rust bucket and they know it but don't fix
