Used Car of the Day: 2006 Toyota Tundra

by Tim Healey

Published: December 18th, 2023

Today we bring you an overlanding 2006 Toyota Tundra.

Both the mileage and the ask are high, 230K and $30,000, respectively. That price is presumably high because of the off-road upfitting.

Modifications include front and rear ARB lockers, 4.88 gearing, 35-inch tires, customized frame, customized front and rear bumpers with winches, bed drawers, and bed slides.

Other modifications of note: Fox coilover shocks, lightbars, LED headlights, wiring for HAM and CB radio, train horn, cold-air intake, upgraded stereo, and more.

Yet the seller notes that aside from the intake, the 4.7-liter engine is stock.

If you're looking for a truck that's ready for the trails, this might be your huckleberry.

Tim Healey

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Did you know, if you post to that Tundra fan-boy forum and you do not wax poetic about the Tundra or someone's over priced and heavily modded truck....your posts will be deleted and you will be banned?! Ask me how I know. LOL!

  Toyota truck people are fanatics on par with Taylor Swift fans.

  So what you're saying is that if I post something along the lines of the new Tundra is a grotesque characture of what an idiot thinks a truck should look like, all the while it has an interior that resembles a stack of Legos and a Fisher-Price My First Car, combined with the front visibility guaranteed to turn anyone under 5 feet tall into a form of tomato paste, my comment might be deleted? I'm just speaking the truth...

That's a lot of miles to get behind a tow truck. Or probably two trucks with the same odometer...

El scotto Not good, not good at all, Ford has had transmission issues in their past. To give the manufacturers credit they're going with a huge overabundance of caution on anything that could resemble a recall. It kinda helps them avoid lawsuits and bad social media.
Fred Stream Spotify, Radio Paradise, Jazz24 thru Android Auto. I have a lot of music and podcasts on my phone that I can bluetooth to the stereo. I use an app Folder Player that doesn't work with AA because Google doesn't like to free up the file system to AA.
Fred And why wouldn't they claim success? They are pretty smart folks over there and they can borrow from Audi who already have hybrids and EVs Not to mention their hypercars and F1 program
El scotto Your cell phone has a serial number. Everything in your vehicle that receives radio frequencies has a serial number. All of these serial numbers are in at least one database. Most of these devices are in a least two databases; who made the device and who is sending you info.For most of us our cell phones, anything from a satellite (Sirius, GPS maps), and the modem in your vehicle can be tracked. I'm not sure how hard it would be to disconnect your vehicle's modem but I would imagine it's very hard.The real question is: What is your being connected/being surveyed comfort ratio/level?What's the frequency Kenneth?
The Oracle Oh wow, figure it out Ford.
