That I was. And right in the back yard, too! thanks!

 

Question.

I'm finding some reasonably priced 2021 Tundras. A couple that are well under 20K miles. Are those still under bumper to bumper up to yr3/36K? Would powertrain still apply out to 5yr/60k?

What date drives the warranty? Build or original sale date?

I'm considering getting one sooner if I'm able to take advantage of the factory warranty.

These are not for sale at Toyota dealerships, so no Toyota Certified Used warranty.

 

I don't seem to recall the warranty's being owner transferable... might be completely wrong though.

 

Original purchase date is what triggers the warranty clock.

99% sure the factory warranty is valid on the truck so long as nothing was done to invalidate it. It's not specific to the owner.

 

Good to know. Both were originally sold in 11/2021 according to the carfax reports. That would give me bumper to bumper until 11/2024 and powertrain to 11/2026. I don't expect to exceed the mileage. Not too bad.

As long as the maintenance has been kept up to keep the warranty intact, yes. Contact a your local dealership to make sure. Do it via email, so their answer is in writing in case they try to wiggle out of it later if you do need something.

Honestly, the warranties on the 2.5 gen Tundras are kind of funny. Even abused you're likely to get over 100K miles without any kind of problem.

 

Do they check that with the VIN?

 

I stopped and chatted with the owner of the shop I use (Independent Toyota shop) to ask about red flags, etc. He said if you don't see any obvious leaks, you're good to go. He said they're not prone to problems.

 

I just meant a general question about if the warranty would be intact on a used truck, not on a specific truck. The only way they could check the maintenance by VIN is if it's been serviced at a dealership every time.

 

Ahh...got it.

 

Yup.

The 5.7 is pretty beefy. It's also not overly complex, thus it is thirsty but reliable. Recently there is news that the guy who got a million miles on a 4.7 is now over 900K miles on his 5.7 Tundra. You really don't have a lot to worry about as long as it's not been abused.

 

Good to go.

4.7 belt driven cams
5.7 Chain..

 

Logged onto the Toyota Owners site. Plugged in the VINS and saved the spec sheets. Date of first use for both was 11/2021.

 

Chain = good?

 

Which scenario you want to go with?

Both have advantages
Both have disadvantages.

 

@Sig45 as you know, the only failure I've had with mine was the power steering reservoir broke and killed the power steering pump. Fixed under warranty no issues. 48k miles and climbing rapidly, driven very hard.

 

Apparently braked super hard too..
