How many miles does a 2000–2006 Toyota Tundra last?
On the 2000–2006 Toyota Tundra, half of the 2,463 complaints that record an odometer reading were filed by 98,000 miles and 90% by 180,000 miles (why that is not a lifespan).

Known problems with the 2000–2006 Tundra
Frame/Structure 2000–2003
Frame corrosion and perforation. Toyota recalled roughly 110,000 MY2000-2003 Tundras across 20 cold-weather states and DC for frame rust that could allow the spare tire carrier to separate from the vehicle and, in advanced cases, compromise frame integrity. Inspection criteria centered on rust-through holes larger than about 10 mm; qualifying trucks received frame replacement. Toyota subsequently extended corrosion warranty coverage to later first-generation trucks.
