My '02 Tundra experience. Bought it new in 2002, kept it 9 years and put 136,000 on it. I had this notion that it would be super reliable and low cost regarding repairs - wrong. I had to replace O2 sensors more times than I care to remember. The major issue it had was wiring problems to the trailer. 3-4 attempts by the dealer (and hundreds of dollars), plus my own attempts and it never really got fixed. Then the cost of replacing the timing belt and the water pump wasn't cheap. The frame rusted out badly. Gas mileage was around 17 on the highway, turning radius wasn't tight making it a pain to turn around in close quarters.
The newer ones might be better - I wasn't impressed with 2002.
