Hello Sambo,

I purchased a 2000 Tundra 4x4 Access Cab Limited V8 in April 2002. Toyotas are known for their reliability and safety. Overall, the Tundra I purchased has been great. In the first two year models there were some issues with the braking system which toyota replaced under warranty. I believe they have since upgraded the braking systems in the newer models (you should ask them about it). I think when choosing a truck the most important issue to consider is "what will you be using it for". Toyota Tundras are not as big or as powerful as Chevy or Ford trucks but for me the Tundra has more than enough power and load carrying capacity for my needs.(and I can still park it in normal parking spaces....) This year Toyota is offering a 4-door Super Cab model Tundra, which should be perfect for trucking the family around while still giving some hauling and payload ability (you give up bed length in this case). If you have any other questions you can email me at tailwalk@aol.com
