Toyota just recalled all the 2000-2003 Tundra's for premature frame rot. You sure you want to buy a truck from them? A savings at the dealership won't help you when the thing breaks in half on the highway.

It's a good towing setup. Shoot me a pm if you're interested and I can give you all the details.

Only if you plan on never using them for anything even moderate duty and only keeping it a short while. They have the weakest frames, most under powered drivetrains, poorest towing capacity in class, poorest payload in class, and now a full recall on 2000-2003 Tundras for frame rot. You get what you pay for.
