Cons- we have a lot of problems with them. We have over 10 4x4 tundras in our fleet and they constantly have problems. Everything from anti-lock brake problems, transmission issues, transfer cases, altenators (sp?), to terrible location for skid plate. It has to be removed to replace oil filter. Disclaimer- we keep them off road 60-70% of the time and probably put 30,000 + miles a year on them.

the only thing I can say as far as a con is maybe gas mileage.,but with a big engine,cant expect to much. Everything else is excellent. I had my first one almost 9 yrs. w/o problems, Going on 2 with my new one. Love my truck

I have an 07 5.7l that I use to commute about 65 miles a day, tow my 18ft boat, and get around town, currently have about 50k miles

I get what I think is good fuel economy for a full size truck, computer tells me 17.6mpg is my overall average. Ive never had any issues with it.

The biggest con for me is the super thin paint, you can almost rub it off lol

Drive one. If it handles anything like Brandy's sequoia you won't like it.
