My eleven-year-old Tundra has been a great truck but as it approaches 90,000 miles there was a great deal of scheduled maintenance to be done if I wanted it to stay as totally reliable as I had come to expect it to be. Most particularly, one has needs to replace the timing belt (potentially a $1300 job). Many people don't bother but decide to just buy a new vehicle.
I chose to get the work done as I want to keep this truck many more years. I checked with three different shops including Toyota of Richardson. The three bids were $1300 (the Toyota bid), $1050, and $850. I chose the Toyota shop, even though higher, because past experience has given me great confidence in their shop. As it turned out the final bill came to be less than $900. Better work for a better price!!
