Full-size Pickup
Toyota launched the Tundra in 2000 to take on the domestics and never quite cracked the volume game — but the cars they did sell are still on the road. The 2nd-gen XK50 (2007-2021) with the 5.7L iForce V8 is the bulletproof one — 'Million Mile Tundras' are documented and real. The 3rd-gen XK70 (2022-) replaced V8s with a twin-turbo V6 hybrid that's been less universally beloved. Tundra trades absolute capability for long-term durability — you'll pay more, but you'll keep it longer.
