Here is a fact worth knowing before you look at the odometer. In 2016, a Louisiana man drove his Tundra into a Toyota dealership with one million miles on it — same engine, same transmission, documented and verified — and Toyota traded him a new truck for it so the engineers could take the old one apart. The engine in that truck was the 5.7-liter i-FORCE V8. It is the engine in this one. Naturally aspirated, no turbochargers, port and direct injection, a timing chain rather than a belt, built with the kind of margin that lets it shrug off abuse for decades. Toyota does not make it anymore — the current Tundra runs a twin-turbo V6 — which is why people who tow, haul, and keep trucks for twenty years have started hunting for the last V8 Tundras specifically. At 142,309 miles, this one is well into its life. By the standard of its own engine, it has barely started the second act.

And it was ordered to go a long way between stops. The SR5 Leather Package — a $1,580 option — brought leather seat trim and front bucket seats in Graphite, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, an anti-theft immobilizer with alarm, and the item that matters most on a V8 truck: a 38-gallon fuel tank, twelve gallons more than the standard one. That is the difference between stopping every three hundred miles and stopping every five hundred, and it is the single most useful option on a Tundra that pulls a trailer. The deck rail system ($125) adds four adjustable tie-down cleats to the bed. Neither is on your invoice.

The rest is what a Tundra SR5 is. The six-speed automatic with tow/haul mode, a rear camera for lining up the hitch, smartphone mirroring for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a Wi-Fi hotspot. Toyota Safety Sense P is standard: a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection that watches the road ahead and can brake on its own, dynamic radar cruise control, lane departure alert, and automatic high beams. Super White is the color a working truck should be — it hides dust and is the easiest paint on earth to match.

A word on the mileage. At 142,309 miles this Tundra has been used the way a truck should be, and that is why it is priced where it is. It has been through our reconditioning process, and the full inspection report is yours to read before you drive it — which on a high-mileage truck is the document that matters most.
