people who get there vehicles to 1 million miles should get a new one from the factory
Caleb Hogue Toyota did give him a brand new Tundra in exchange for his old one
No they did not. Why spread bullshit?
Even if that was true I wouldn't have taken it. Money far better spent rebuilding the old one.
what money? :D
So all taxi drivers will get new cars?
I heard GM did this on one of their trucks that made 30,000 without any problems.
joe fran 30,000 lol
Funny! My 6.2L high country was in the shop 6 times by 27k. Final time was for a leaking radiator! I traded it in on a 2018 Tundra the day the Chevy dealer gave it back.
😂😂😂
@@JDOutdoors23 dude i have an 02 corolla with over 350k...idles rough sometimes and likes her oil but i bet shed make it to either coast just fine
TAdriver009 dang... I feel bad, Cummins logo but can’t afford a duramax ;(
This guys safety level in the parking lot is on point.
company policy and he has no problem with it because he is accustomed to it.
Ya I’m surprised he didn’t have roofers harness just in case he tripped.
Safety First....
*en fleek
You need it when your close to a Toyota
You can't destroy a Toyota. Top Gear drowned one in the ocean, set it on fire, smashed it with a wrecking ball, and threw it off a building.... and it still ran...
Amanda M went to gta and ran
That was a mechanically injected diesel. 12v to the fuel shutoff solenoid and that’s it. No ECU. I’ve pulled mechanical injection diesels out of barns after having sat for 15 years and they still run on the old diesel in the tank. Top gear’s test was entertaining, but hardly profound.
And btw, that was a Hilux, which we don’t get. The Taco isn’t even close to the hilux in terms of capability.
Oh,the nostalgia!
Top gear is a setup show. Everything is staged, they make scrips for every show even before they review the vehicles.
@@taurinenrgy Yes some of the show is scripted but the Toyota Hilux wasn't scripted and was genuine.
Miles don’t hurt a vehicle. Incompetent owners hurt vehicles.
This is true. Vehicles are designed to be driven. With proper care, any properly designed vehicle will do the same miles.
Vehicles are like women: miles and years are just a number. How the hold up is a matter of driving/living conditions and service/care. Some are already sick and ugly in their twenties, while others stay fit and look stunning well into their fourties and fifties...
Long distance trips and regular maintenance are to a car what sports and a healthy diet are to people.
@@turboseize Women are like vehicles: The more owners they went through the less desirable they are.
Very well said
I want to see all the maintenance records and bills for the lifetime of the vehicle. See how much money it takes to keep a vehicle that upkept.
Y THE HELL IS THIS GUY DRESSED LIKE A CONSTRUCTION WORKER?
HEALTH AND SAFETY BRO.
It can happen ANY TIME ANYWHERE so be PREPARED
That's the safety policy for the Toyota plant.
Because it makes him look official,nobody would take him serious if he just wore plain clothes.Trust me they tried it without the uniform and they only got like 14 views. XD
Standard "PPE" safety gear the helmet is a bump cap meant to protect against light bumps and scratches when working, manufacturing Toyota vehicles.
I've got a 2000 Tundra with 400k on the clock ... doesn't burn oil and still runs perfect. Purchased new ... best vehicle I've EVER owned!
just bought an 04 with 167k on the clock for 2k
Theres a reason tacomas keep their value just as well as jeep wranglers
@@goliathyeti1669wranglers used right are for the dirt roads. Built to go off-road.
@@duplexking8097I need one, don’t I?
2UZ-FE ?
Skotty kilmer *heavy breathing*
😂

😂😂😂
OMG!! Thats funny as hell! Just watched that Scotty video, he's usually pretty honest, Ford must have paid him alot of money! Really hurts Scotty credibility
REV UP THOSE ENGINES
This dude really need that hard hat?
Steve Abbott 😂😂😂
They all do that, its to feel more manly since the only machinery they handle is a pen
hahahahhahahhhahahahhhhahahha I THOUGHT THE SAME EXACT THING.. Seriously, how much PPE is this company forcing these guys to wear?
Hope he’s got fireproof underware too:-))))
It's called leadership, if they are going to be pushing ppe on the workforce they better be wearing it themselves (for the sake of the video though it is silly)
He drove 120k miles a year... 300+ miles everyday. He lived in that Toyota.
That is insane... onetime I drove 4000 miles in a week and after I did not leave the house for 3 days
thats only something around 5 hours per day... not much
Mario on the Moon try 3000 miles in 3 days (across the country)
He won’t come out of his house for a year.
Gab riel that’s about 1/5 of your day driving. That’s alot
Miles: 1,000,000
Price: $-25,000
that would make sense but seems 1m mile cars go for a lot
WN Continental Broadcasting they are probably dirt cheap it has a million miles
Wrong!!!
A million mile vehicle is worth millions in marketing. Further proof Toyota makes a dependable vehicle equals Billions in car sales.
After watching this video I'm now looking for a Toyota Tundra.
MARZOSIRUS Toyota’s are ass
If this was in california, he will be spending atleast $200,000 on gas
Truck looks like 100K miles, amazing shape. That's someone who really takes care of their vehicle
looks perfect on the outside.
My dad has a 2010 Tundra. We go all over the country with it on vacations, we tow boats, we use it for work, basically we use it *a lot*. It's still going strong and it's never had to go to a shop for any problems. This is why I'll always love Toyota. Everything is great about these cars.
TheGrayWolf81 miles?
You lost all credibility when you called this truck a car
that's it....I'm buying a Tundra!!! marketing guys did well on this one.
Same. !!!!!
dbruin03 I'm not going to replace ball joints unless they're bad... No point replacing them if there's still no play.
dbruin03 wish I had seen this 6 months ago! I broke a ball joint on my 05 tundra at 205,000 miles. Luckily I wasn’t going very fast at the time. Scared the heck out of me.
So, it's still cheap
Hey, here's a Nissan Frontier with 1,000,000 million miles. ruclips.net/video/4Cc3AgIy4vw/видео.html
I love the fact that engineering team want to tear it down to see what's else they can make an improvement on. I think if Toyota is the only car manufacture in this world there wouldn't be mechanic shop.
They don't want to improve that... They'll go out of business if they allow every vehicle to run for a million miles. They want to it to break down eventually so you have to buy a new one.
The owner had to drive an average of 273 miles per day to reach 1 million in 10 years. That's a lot of driving.....
I drive that in a week in my tacoma, which is still under average. To think He had to fill up almost every other day and get tires twice a year, and brakes 1 or twice a year, and oil change once a month is insane.
It was all most likely billed directly to his company.
I drive 20k-30k miles a year on my 09 Toyota. I racked up 181,234 miles on it all ready. I also go through a set of tires one a year. I did at one point had oil changes every signal month. I was putting on 5k every month. Thing runs like a clock.
Ramo i drive about 200-300 miles a day my self i put 20k miles on my tacoma in about 3months of getting it & i do delivery's everyday all day averaging about 250miles each trip
At least he is probably good at doing oul changes himself
I have a 1996 Toyota Tacoma that has 1.2 million miles and it's still running beautifully.
I don't know if any work was done in the past because I'm not the first owner, but I have had it for 10 years and it has not broken even once, other than having to buy a new battery.
Pot Ate Toe yea sure lol
I have a 1996 with 267,000 have receipts for every bit of work that’s every been out into this truck we’re the 3rd owners
@@tiddbob4166 - I know it sounds preposterous, but the odometer already showed 100,000 when I bought it; I put more than 100,000 myself, and I was the third or fourth owner. The odometer is the old dialing kind, not digital. The truck came from a different country so its been driven quite a bit. It's highly possible that the odometer reached all 999,999 and clocked back to 000,000 ... or someone tampered with the dashboard before I owned it. But I don't think that a 1996 tacoma had only 100,000 when I bough it.
I have a 1987 toyota hilux with 9.47 million miles. I've had it since new. Never did any work on it other than putting gas in. Runs like new
@@TheSuperBoyProject 🤯🤌🏻🤤
shit his k&n 1 million miles warranty expired.
to be fair his odometer says 999,999 miles
Shawn White that’s the highest value the odometer can display lol
Seigin1 Hahahahahahahahahaha nice!
If it had a K&n filter it would not have lasted that long.
NATE DOGG my thoughts exactly
imagine the total cost he spent on gas
imagine total cost of repairs
117 oil changes, 2 timing chain changes, and one transmission repair, all done by the same dealer. That's a lot of money.
+Michael Sabrsula oil changes are just maintenance that's not repairs...
Probably billed to the gas company he contracted with, or he had a company gas card.
more than what the truck is worth several times over
Reminds of the Top Gear episode ""Killing a Toyota"
true
yea
ikr!
Impressive even with proper maintenance. Other significant points here is that he drive highway miles which are less stressful on a vehicle (vs. city miles) yet he hauled with the truck. Would love to hear a summary of Toyota's findings.
So I turned down a tundra because it had 150k miles. Well f*ck
Bryan3000GG dumbass. Miles don't mean shit to foreign cars.
r0llinlacs this isn’t foreign dumbass
Mensur Cirikovic uh ya tundra is foreign
r0llinlacs people refer foreign cars as German also Honda and Mazda
I bought a used Lexus with 175k on it. I checked the owner reviews still but people had 350k plus on that year IS so I wasn't worried
I am glad my 2007 Lexus LX470 also has this identical legendary engine and transmission platform.
what about rusty frame? and broken frame near the engine?
ruclips.net/video/tNvCWqN3MPA/видео.html
the video you linked is for the v6 engine not the v8 in this or the lx470
That’s not how it works
“Gonna pop a hood today of a truck, I’ll need my hard hat AND a safety vest”
“Shit I forgot my safety glasses”
good commercial for toyota btw
Of course, thats why this guy went to the marketing dpt. for the purchase, he mention it at the beginning of the video
apogeus2 commercial for toyota dealer in USA because toyota services can vary from country to country based on the dealer!
in the north east this truck would have rotted out by 350k mile, toyota should focus on rustproofing
YES
If you get 350k out of a truck, that's a win just by itself. Much more than that, especially in the rust belt, is asking a bit much.
i would be happy if a vehicle lasted me 350k
Ford dodge and Chevy would not rust out
My dad's 02 f250 has almost 400,000 miles on it, its on its second transmission but still has the original gas v8. We live in Maryland and it has little rust but nothing serious even with the road salt during the winters.
We got a Sequoia with 300k miles on it. Same drivetrain as the tundra. It's good to know it can keep on going for much longer.
what year?
zadeopotato I have a 2003 Sequoia with 223k miles on it and a mechanic recently told me it will easily reach at least 400k miles
Big deal....my Nissan gets a brand new CVT transmission every 45,000 miles. 😂 😭
TheGomezIndustries Can’t stand Nissan for that CVT issue. My dad gave me his 2013 Maxima, (love it because it’s a Nissan) but the catch was I had to put a brand new CVT in it. The original one lasted 140,000 miles, so hopefully this one does the same or more. Seems like they wouldn’t want that issue as it would drive away the Nissan fans like me....Getting me a 240 soon lol
Mekhi Harris what about 2020 Nissan Titan or Nissan warrior do they have trouble I’m thinking of getting a new truck but don’t know not ford nor ram nor gmc or Chevy only good Toyota right what about others
John Mcclane Nissan motors are fairly reliable, but from what I know the Titan does not have a CVT, and a 9 Speed auto instead. That would most likely last longer than a CVT. Titan is not a bad truck by any means, but some people don’t classify it as a real “truck” because it wasn’t made by Ford, Ram, or Chevrolet.
John Mcclane
Why gamble? Forget Nissan, ever since they merge with Renault they became shit.
this is 1 million though according to the thumbnail
That’s over 300 miles a day if he got it brand new and never skipped a day
Parker Hein I don’t know why you did this calculation but it needed to be done. GOD DAMN A
That's around $125,000 spent on gas based on only hwy mpg; more if city or combined.
James Rogers i’d hope so like god damn
@@hostilityy all write offs.
So he would get the full amount back in gas as a write off??
100,000 miles for an American Car and it breaks down. 100,000 for a Toyota and it’s broken in.
Illegalskittles no inaccurate. I have a geo metro with 928283(747484777493939387484..4947+48$929283883838484848 miles on it.
my 2003 f350 has 300k miles looks almost new besides drivers seat. my friends 96 has 800k miles had the engine rebuilt once at 500k, a few transmissions and one rear end from towing heavy constantly. dodge cummins trucks can go longer but the dodge trucks themselves fall apart :-P
dsruddell i have a 1917 ford with 10 million miles on it. im the original owner and ive been driving it since ww1. only have had to change the oil since i had it. i also race it on the weekends
America can build trucks and muscle cars, but an everyday travel car? NO.... I’ll stay European.
First Last you’re actually stupid, it was put together in america but parts and everything are japanese
And I was hesitant on buying an 05 Tacoma with 109k miles lol.
thatguymichael that could have been a good bargain if bought at the right price
109k miles is just warming up.
😄😄😄😄😄
thatguymichael 109k? Barely starting to break in. Once it hits 200k it’s broken in. By that time most chevys or dodge trucks are in the junk yard
Who else get this in their recommendation like 2-3 times a year but you watch it every time
me
😂
Xavier Roy-Lanctot on my second here
Me 4th time
Toyota chief engineer and he didn't even know that the 4.7 liter has a timing belt instead of timing chain??? I don't usually try to troll or hate but come on now..
Yeah i call bs its in way to good of shape
@BMW516 I own a 2017 corolla its an ok car but trust me no ten year work truck is going to look that clean with that many miles. No rips in the drivers seat where you exit the truck is a dead give away of bs. Thats why the guy brings it up in the video to throw you off. And my corolla the plastic by the wind shield broke so i glued it and the glass in my rear view mirror is loose and shakes. The dealer ordered a new one said they installed but didnt it was the same mirror they tighten it a little thats all.Toyotas are good cars but there not magic A million miles is a complete lie .
@BMW516 Keep drinking that b.s. kool aid . Its a work truck not a car big difference.
@BMW516 You work at a dealership .I work construction you don't know what your talking about. I don't think you understand what real work is buddy . A million mile work truck you really believe that? I feel sorry for you if your that gullible.
@BMW516 One more thing you have an apple symbol and your name is BMW.I don't think I need to say more poser
I have 2001 sequoia with 545k miles no major repairs of any sorts... change oil and breaks
zaid almontaser my 2002 sequoia has about 200k I think and no problems other than the struts and rack-Pinion(if that's how you pronounce it) is bad but already ordered the parts but no engine problems. We've used as a family car and to take to Cali, lakes far, off roading at one point too and maybe the power steering went out at one point but that was years ago can remember what we did
zaid almontaser How many timing belts have you put on? That's awesome I have a 00"Tundra 4x4 with 194,000
I have a 2003 Sequoia with 250k miles
what type of oil?
does it have the sealed transmission? have you changed the fluid?
"The reverse fell out at 770,000"
I put my foot through the floor of mine at 170,000...
is this matt faraha's million mile Lexus

+Jake The Snake Productions hahaha
That LS400 is one hell of a car! Gotta give Toyota credit here. All of their North American market vehicles are tanks and last forever.
All of their North American market vehicles are cheap junk made to be sold at half the price compared to the models they make for domestic market or Europe.
Same family of engine. The Lexus is a 1uz-fe , the tundra is a 2uz-fe.
theres a episode of topgear where they try to kill a Toyota pickup but couldnt manage it :) they even put it on top of a high rise building and demolished the building, the Toyota still ran lol
Norry Rampage I remember it like it primiered yesterday
2016-2018 Toyota Tacoma have worst reliability rating of any midsize truck per Consumer Reports.
That was a hilux
Anytime I think about selling my '05 Tundra (175k miles) I watch this video.
That's super impressive!
The video also wants to make me skip doing my timing "chain".
I think I can squeeze another 300k out of it.
Don’t push it. From what I read that’s an interference engine, don’t destroy your engine because you neglected to maintenance. Change it when it’s due, but granted if you drive mostly highway you can get away with pushing it a little bit
Yeah...... The engine has a timing belt. Not sure why he keeps saying chain. And you should always change the water pump and belt at the same time.
And yes, its an interference engine, which is why they moved to the newer 4.6L in 2010. I hear its more reliable than the 5.7L.
Tear it down??? Why?? They should keep it as is and make it a display
yes
I think they wanted to study the car.
They do want to study it, they gave the guy a brand new truck in trade for this one because they want to know what they did right with this generation
They should display it I've seen a couple Hondas at Honda dealers with 350,000 miles they show how long they last so people know what there buying a good car.
they want to know what they did right so they can never do it again. they lost a lot of money with this truck lasting this long. lol
I have a 99 4Runner with 400k miles and keeps going well.
that's cute. now try 1m miles up north with salt
+NISMOIZKING lmfaooo
this is so tru
This guy did hot shots to North Dakota, so I bet quite a few were up north.
+NISMOIZKING I am using a c1500 short bed to pull 2500hd or 3500 payloads. I built my truck from the ground up. love this bastard
hes not even being a hater, up north cars rot out, my 97 integra with 170k and my 2000 grand prix gt with 113k both have virtually no rockers due to salt and not being maintained in the conditions its a struggle
Now get your hand on a Northern truck that's actually been worked. I don't care if it's Ram, GM, Ford, or Toyota, they all rot to shit and die very early. Not hard to make a truck live forever in LA with it's beautiful weather and relatively flat roads.
my northern manual tranny v8 gmc is at 354k, 3 alternators, two a/c pumps, frame welded, gaskets. Brake drums worn (all 23 pounds each) right through...the back diff cover burrowed a hole through the steel, just by the ring gear spinning that many miles. Funny enough, the frame work is from overloading... Any claim to high miles on an automatic is another sign of hoax. At 500k, you are warding off nuclear reactions. Not sure why TFL gave this episode to people.. maybe you tube is that stupid. I am not fooled in any way.
If he's hotshot hauling for oil companies that truck is definitely being worked. That actually surprises me in itself that it's lasted that long as rig roads are often horrible!
+yfz Yep I live there too, you have to get a new car every 8-10 years or so max(unless you want a rust bucket) if you don't garage keep them every single winter because the roads are absolute garbage and the road salt eats away at your car every winter.
Who gives a shit its 999,999,999 miles so let it be
my 04 Nissan Titan has no rust except on the rear end and lower control arms
Most well built truck in the past 20 years. Arguably commercial grade. My favorite gas power forklifts have been Toyota's. Just one of the many reasons I bought a 2012 Tundra.
Toyota forklifts are really nice to dtive.
"The driver is a really large man". doesnt suprise me. he did drive a million miles.
ya when your constantly driving and sitting on your ass for hours drinking coffee and huffing donuts and truck stop food for 1 million miles....lol
My mom just got a brand new tundra and she loves it
BalisticAssualtRifle jk
why the fuck is he wearing safety gear
Because he works for production of the trucks, it's his work uniform lol
JesseJTheGreat yea so he wears it outside around no equipment
+mds s you could never be too safe so stop complaining bruh
Jesus Corral I'm not ur fuckin "bruh"
cool factor. plus it helps with the hookers
I have a 2016 with 139k on it. Drives like new. Never any issues. I have changed oil and fluids religiously. I love it. I hope it last through retirement and can be passed on to my Grandson.
An engineer and he doesn't know that engine has a timing belt and not a chain ? We have one just like that one, only 260,000 miles, runs like new !
Because the 3UR-FE has a timing chain and its a sales leader so its easy to confuse small details like that
***** All of the 4.7 were belt driven, 5.7 has a chain, both are first rate engines
+CACressida small details??? yea ok
uh, so he only changed the belt twice in a million miles? he would have had to be putting about 400,000 miles on each timing belt. that's impressive by itself.
Timing chains are different. This motor has a chain, right?
this is why I love Toyota
Mell Johnson same here sir
Toyota just flat out makes reliable vehicles. I own 3 in past and my favorite one to this day is my 09 Toyota Corolla S model 👌💪👍
I have to admit that I'm more impressed with the condition of the body than the mileage. That guy really takes care of his equipment.
There's a guy with a '66 Volvo with 3 million miles. They should keep driving the Tundra. See how far she can go.
Yes, that would be amazing advertizing...
This guy belongs to a truck group in the Houston area and he actually went over one million... He used the trip counter to keep track after 999999
The volvo has a bunch of rebuilds on its engine though
+JW Outdoor 814 One at 700ish k and then another at 2.9M. That's over 2M on one engine.
JW Outdoor 814 Lol; yeah I imagine that it would have to get some rebuilds here and there.
You drive a vehicle a million miles because you REALLY want to do that. You're going to have to do some things to keep it running.
In terms of the driver seat looking so good, I'm going to guess he had seat covers on them. They help out a lot with preserving seats.
Toyota makes the best trucks/SUV's, no questions asked.
That is why Toyota is the only car maker that you can guarantee that the product will last forever. Remember the Hilux pickup that James May "destroyed?" It still started up and it could run.
+AE86 of Mt. Akina hey you're that dude in Car throttle. Those are the only things that went wrong, try doing a million miles in another truck I bet there would be a very very very long list of things the went wrong
My dad had an 87 pickup which was similar to the hilux top gear used and it was so problematic that he bought another 4 years later. Then that one ate through 3 radiators several batteries, and half of the time wouldnt start. But my aunt worked for toyota so he always had the family discount. We had the 91 for 12 years, and then we bought a new yukon in 2004, and now its also 12 years old it has held up much better. Although, my one gripe is the incredibly shitty speakers GM put in tho vehicles if they didnt come with a bose setup. Theyre really bad. My isuzu trooper is 15 years old and that doesnt have any problems either. Older nissans are reliable, like bulletproof, hondas have their problems in the automatic transmission department but i dig their accords
+AE86 of Mt. Akina says the guy who just watched a 1M mile tundra video... Cynicism at its worst
+AE86 of Mt. Akina when it had 730,000 he had to replace the reverse gear parts on cars wont last for ever they will need to be replace after a certain amout of miles
Other than those THREE things and routine maintenance you're really gonna say that quality has dropped?
Why does this dude have a hard hat on and a visibility vest
David Mathewson III OSHA
OSHA. He's probably in a position of leadership too so he's probably not just in the office all the time either and it helps to improve PPE use when you see your boss wear it too.
Because he’s a dork
The hat protects your head, and the vest makes you more visible.
And eye protection lol
Congratulations TOYOTA! That's why you are the No1 Automaker in the world!
There is a GMC Sierra Dually with One Million Miles and a Ford F250 also with One Million Miles
"....And what can we improve for the future" damn toyota for MVP!!
Youd be lucky to get 200k miles in canada in a tundra
easy when you drive 120k miles a year!!
that's EXACTLY what I was thinking... it's a lot of windshield time!
That is absolute bullshit nonsense.
FloppyBit Please share some more of your advanced knowledge of bull shit.. id love to hear about it.
+enemy4 2day I love in Canada for starters, and my company that I work for has about 1000 well paid employees where most of them drive trucks. Every single old tundra who my buddy's own are in excellent shape. I live in one of the worst parts of Canada for salt and I too own a tundra, so yes, I call bullshit from real world experience.
Shows that when you take care of your Toyota, it will last
It's not how many miles it has, it's about how you treat the truck
I love this. I drive a 4.0 V6 4runner 5th gen. Just hit 90k. I hope my son enjoys this truck when he gets his license in 7 years.
This truck drove about 277 miles a day.
take off weekends and holidays it is much higher, which is crazy
Your math is shit. 342 miles per day.
almost unreal... how whats the average speed? divide that he drives it 8-10 hours a day? very hard to believe he done that in 01 years...
+723lion *10 years
The big deal is that the car held up for 1 million miles. Not many car brands can do that. This is why Toyota is the best when it comes to reliability.
Dad bought a Toyota pickup truck, new in 1994. Still driving it to this day at 215,000 miles. It's been an amazing truck and I am a loyal Toyota customer because of it.
PLEASE, please, please.....film that teardown!!!
my dad has a ford taurus 90 I think with 600,000 miles haha to be honest I have no idea how this thing stills running
I had a '94 that went to over 300,000 which SHOULD have been totaled after an interstate disaster, and then was beaten like hell by a guy who didn't respect it for a LONG time. Car was still reliable as hell and built like a tank. Figuring it wasn't worth anything I just gave it to my nephew who hit ditches with it and had to get it pulled out, etc. Still went strong. Then his dad got it and drove the oil out of it (leaking valve cover gasket) and finally killed the engine. RIP.
Haha i see I dont know how long this one will last but seems that still has a long way yo run
+David McClelland that car had the Vulcan 3.0 v6 in it. damn good motor
Sherburne Lee Yes sir it was and ran smooth as butter.
+armando serna my next door neighbor has a 1997 Toyota Tacoma with 720,000 Miles on it, thing still runs everyday, just shows how taking care of something can come a long way.
I've become a toyota fan boy! After working on my chevys doing intake gaskets and fuel pumps on a Sunday morning to get to work on Monday. I now drive a tacoma and love everything about it!
Wonder what an aluminum bed would have looked like after that use
Fucking destroyed
Too many overloaded toolboxes being dropped on their corner into the bed :o
Have you ever seen a piece of swiss cheese? .... lol
:)
yeah in our F 150 we put a Bedliner to prevent dents on the bed
It would have looked like a thousand soda cans :).
I know a friends uncle that has a toyota truck and the mileage is over 500,000 miles. He hauls and tows too its still kicking.
I'm not too surprise since this is a Toyota.
Agreed...

I love my Tundra
built here

I wonder what he bought to replace it?
I remember Toyota was offering him a brand new 2016 Tundra for his million mile truck. I am guessing that is what happened.
Yes, Toyota traded with the owner: a new Toyota Tundra for this old Tundra.
+David Acrey A free truck is pretty awesome, but having to drive that much.... is it worth it? Also knowing that Toyota will use it like this to commercial their reliability? Eh, I think he could have got a few more dollars out of 'em. haha
Thats awesome.
I hope Matt Farah's million mile Lexus
Decided to change the engine oil my self and I accidentally drain all the transmission oil out of my brand new 2008 thundra than filled up the engine with 6 quarts of oil. Total 12 quarts of engine oil. Old oil plus new oil. I drove 400 miles and started to smell something burning and smoking. It was the transmission with no oil in it. Filled it up with transmission oil. Drove it 200,000 miles and still driving it today with no problems. Still original transmission and original engine. If I hadn't done it myself I wouldn't of believed it myself. I will never ever buy any other truck. I'm sold on Toyota for life.
Some dude came into my store a few years ago and had a Ford Van with One Million miles and asked Ford if they wanted to do a commercial and they said no because his Van looked like something you'd shit out... inside and out lmao
Hagha
Why you always lyyiiinnnnggggg
@@slowgoat6089 only one lying is you with that username my man ;)
Lmao please tell me this story is true
Damn i had a 96 camry once that made it all the way to 385k and was proud of it. This is nuts. You only get a million miles from big riggs typically. Thats nuts
I have a FORD that I already changed the plug sparks twice, all the entire valves, worked on the cylinder heads, changed the entire 12 hydraulic push rod (Hydraulic Roller Lifters), also placed new Overhaul Gasket Set Kit, now the damn gear box is leaking all the hydraulic oil like hell... Just have 123k miles... need to sell it ASAP
The owner is a really large man 😂
That part had me cracking up🤣🤣🤣
Thats what happens when u live out west with no snow or salt on the roads
He worked in North Dakota where he did all the towibg
Good luck finding a timing chain when you tear it apart. The 4.7 uses a timing belt. it's also supposed to be changed every 90k according to the manual. So either Toyota wants you to buy unneeded belts or he got very lucky that one of the 3 didn't break in the 250k mile span between changes.
Is this Matt Farah's Million Mile Lexus?
Matt Farah's a gen 2
My 2009 Rav4 V6 Limited has 208,000 miles on it. Still runs great. The only repairs I've had were one wheel bearing needed to be changed. I tried, I couldn't get the bolts off, so i had to take it to the family mechanic. I changed the radiator when a rock hit it, but that's not really a mechanical issue. I actually have a hole in my condenser right now, but it's winter, so there's no rush. I'll do that as soon as it gets warmer, but that's it other than maintenance.
Toyota’s just keep running and running. Incredible cars.
I am impressed with this truck but I am more impressed with the fact that they're saying that it's on the same transmission. Good job Toyota
Any truck will do this if you take care of it.
ppl dont get that
i'm about to buy myself a '98 Chevy with 277K lol
Why aren't they out there then?
+flight2k5 They are, but most people don't put 125k miles on a truck in a year. And most hot shots sell their trucks and get new ones after a few hundred thousand miles.
nah man
toyota should make a challenge if you get a truck to a million miles you get a brand new truck for free
that's what they did for the guy in this one gave him a brand new truvk
Then you could just mess with the odometer and get a free truck.
Digital odometer utilize a memory chip of which if tampered with can easily be found with the programmer. Your claim is only valid for analog equipped vehicles.
I'm sure you had to buy the truck brand new and be the only owner. Nobody drives their truck this much unless its basically being used as a UPS vehicle like this one was. The 117 oil changes got me. Only changing the oil every 9000 miles and it made it to 1 million. Probably used synthetic oil but didn't say. If they used the same oil every time, the oil company should have jumped at the chance to promote their product too.
That's what Mercedes did in Europe about 15 years ago. They gave up after they realized they'd have to give away too many cars.
That’s a top owner who understands how to maintain and drive a car
Does the clock stop racking up the miles at 999,999?
it will go back to 000.000 and start again
Nut Zack Thanks. I was thinking that but this car was left at 999,999
He was joking. (I hope) Only analog odometers turn back to zero because they physically spin. They're numbered 0 - 9 so, naturally, when it spins past 9 it just turns back to zero. But since this odometer is digital, it doesn't go back to 0. But it does stop at 999,999 - I assume this is because the display doesn't have a 7th digit to display - so it can only handle six numbers across as no manufacture expects one million miles. I'm told the owner used the Trip Odometer to keep track of the miles after he hit the the mileage shown.
Ward413 Thanks.
*then sells truck. 0 miles, mint condition
safety glasses, hardhat, hi viz vest, ok lets go look at a truck , it has got to stop, that dude looked ridiculous.
It's because they're at a plant
He'd be fired for not wearing that too
I am very familiar with the protocol for PPE at automotive facilities. I just find it not needed for this application.
It's a car from ISIS. They might be dangerous.
I work at Toyota Torrance whenever they leave their offices they "gear up" lol.
I have a Toyota Tacoma V6 and it has around 250,000 miles on it it still runs pretty well only some minor issues with it
CHEVROLET and FORD AND EVEN Ram trucks aren't going that long. Toyota quality is top of the industry.
Except there are many examples of each brand with trucks rolling over 1 million miles.
+Frank Magana Give me some. Ford and Chevy might have one vehicle out of there fleet of vehicles that are good. But Toyota and Honda entire fleet is above average. there are alot of examples of there cars with well over 200,000 miles with no major problems. American car companies need to step it up. if you go to any fourm you'll see ford trucks and Rams with issues.
+Bolds Yea there are tons of diesel trucks that have hit 1,000,000 miles and a few gas ones, the key is regular maintenance and highway miles
I said trucks not just one truck. Most cases are from GM with both diesel and has. All dodge examples ive seen are diesels, and ford is mixed as well. This is the first tundra ive seen roll over 1 million miles. At the end of the day, nobody is topping the guy with 3 mill on his volvo
+Frank Magana true hahaha
there should be a law that makes manufacturers all make quality cars,but we simply accepted oposite instead of doing something.all cars should be reliable not just toyota
Its called lemon law i think
Then GMs and Fiat Chrysler would go out of business in the U.S.
I have an 06 Tundra 4x4 4.7 V8 with TRD package and approaching 200,000 miles. Had an electrical problem in the tranny that cost a few hundred plus towing to fix and recently replaced timing belt and water pump as routine maintenance. Aside from that it still looks, drives and feels like a new truck to me. After watching this it appears the pickup may outlive me. My only gripe is maneuvering into parking spaces with such a long wb.
The 4.7L doesn’t have a chain it has a belt the 4.0L has the chain
117 oil changes at 1 million miles is an average of an oil change every 8,500 miles. Pretty neat. 1:25
I would of liked to see the truck after its spent all its time on upstate NY lol
My V-6 2006 is at 400,000 miles
One timing chain. Best Truck. No problems
I’ve been using Mobile 1
Great move by Toyota. Now they can figure out how to make their cars less durable.
