Toyota put the 5.7-liter i-FORCE V8 and its six-speed automatic into the Tundra for the 2007 model year and then did something no other truck maker did: it left them alone. Through 2021, while the competition cycled through turbos, cylinder deactivation, stop-start, ten-speed transmissions, and the recalls that came with each, the Tundra kept the same 381-horsepower V8, the same gearbox, and the same frame, and every weak point got found and fixed years before this 2020 was built. That is why technicians who work on every brand tend to drive one of these, and why a 2020 Tundra SR5 at 89,453 miles is a truck we are comfortable putting the Platinum warranty behind. The V8 makes 401 pound-feet of torque, runs on regular unleaded, and is rated to tow up to 10,200 pounds.

The TRD Off-Road Package ($3,440) is the one to look for on a used second-generation Tundra. Trail-tuned Bilstein shock absorbers that handle washboard and ruts without the float of the standard dampers, engine and fuel tank skid plates, 18-inch split-five-spoke TRD Off-Road alloy wheels, LED headlights with black sport trim and wide-angle LED fog and driving lights, a front-door Smart Key system with push-button start, Remote Connect for starting and locking from your phone, Service Connect, TRD Off-Road floor mats, and the bedside decal. The SR5 Upgrade Package ($945) adds the SR5's comfort upgrades; ask us to walk through its contents on the window sticker for this unit. Ask us to confirm the cab, bed length, and drivetrain as well; the 2020 SR5 was sold as a Double Cab or CrewMax, in two- and four-wheel drive.

Inside, the 2020 SR5 is the last-generation Tundra at its most honest. Graphite fabric seats in the TRD Off-Road trim, which is the material that handles a wet dog and a job site, an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Amazon Alexa, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and a cab wide enough that three adults fit across the back. The deck rail system in the bed and the integrated trailer brake controller are part of what the SR5 brought.

Toyota Safety Sense P is standard on every 2020 Tundra. The pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, lane departure alert, dynamic radar cruise control, and automatic high beams, plus the rearview camera. Ask us to confirm the blind spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert on this unit; it was available on the SR5 but is not on the build line.

Midnight Black Metallic with the TRD package's black-trimmed headlights and dark wheels is the second-generation Tundra specification that still looks current parked next to the new truck, and the Graphite interior is the one that cleans up. At 89,453 miles, this Tundra is past Toyota's 3-year/36,000-mile basic and 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranties on mileage, which is why it is sold as Beaver Direct Certified with the Platinum warranty rather than as-is; ask for the inspection report and the service history, because on a 5.7 at this mileage, the maintenance record is what you are buying.

Beaver Direct Certified
Every Beaver Direct Certified vehicle comes with the Platinum 12-Month/12,000-Mile Warranty, a $1,395 value, included in the price. Before it reached the lot this Tundra went through reconditioning and a multi-point inspection, and we will show you the inspection report. Toyota's factory warranties have run out on mileage on this vehicle, so treat the Platinum warranty as the coverage; ask us and we will show you the terms in writing.

The Beaver 30-Day Exchange
Take it home for a month. Tow something heavy with the V8, run a gravel road on the Bilsteins, start it from your phone on a cold morning, and have your own mechanic look it over. If it is not the right vehicle, bring it back within 30 days and exchange it for one that is.
