I finally got a new truck today!I rolled my Chevy 4 times on July 1st and I've been driving a beater that my bro-in-law loaned me since.Yesterday when i woke up i decided it was time.I spent all day looking and found one last night.Today I went back and got a '03 Toyota Tundra.It's not quite as nice as my Chevy but it's still pretty sweet(4.7L V8, 4 door).I'm at work right now, but I'll try to get some pics tomorrow.Does anyone else have a Tundra?I was wondering what king of mileage I could expect.
 
congrats on the new ride.
i'm between trucks these days (FORDead) but i got a bud looking at the same.
nice

any details on the quadruple roll?
 
hell yeah bro.. I had a triple roll over in year 2000 in my s-10.. and a single flip off a 20ft cliff in 2003 on the 4th of july...
 
Still liking the truck>The 4.7L moves pretty good.As far as the wreck goes, I hit a wet patch of road on shi77iest highway in Texas.Lost control in the back and went to the other side of the road.I hit a square culvurt perpindicular and spiraled in the air.When i hit, the tuck rolled a few more times parallel to the road.Probably the scariest day of my life.One of my friends in the back was pronounced dead at the scene.Me and the other two guys were alright(I left the hospital with a band-aid on my elbow). If that wasn't enough to deal with, I get a call from the cop investigating about an hour after my buddies funeral.He tells me I may be charged with criminally neglicent homicide.I haven't heard anything yet, but my wife is from Mexico so if something happens I may spend the rest of my life eating tortillas instead of being some dude's gf.
 
ouch. hope all of that gets sorted out for you.
 
Congrats! The Tundra is a nice truck. EPA ratings for the 4.7 liter i-Force V-8 Tundra are approximately 15/18 city/hwy for 4x4 and 16/19 for 4x2. It should be very reliable. The only two things that bother me about the 4.7l V-8 Tundra are: 1) premium fuel requirement and 2) timing belts (60k replacement interval) instead of timing chains.
 
dude i would shove a totilla up that cops butt and say hey do you think i feel good my friend was killed.do you think i want you to charge me with more pain than it has already caused for me and his parents.then hit the cop in the balls.steal his money then go but some fish.
