The Million Mile Toyota Tundra

A man named Victor Sheppard put over one million miles on this 2007 Toyota Tundra pickup truck in LESS than a decade! More surprisingly,  it’s still standing strong with the original engine, transmission and paint job! 

Is It Still In Good Condition? 

Toyota states that the million-mile truck, which has the V6 engine, has survived this long with no extraordinary maintenance outside “timing belt replacements, oil changes, and the manufacturer’s regularly scheduled check-ups,” in a press release.

Shepard states that his truck looks great, except for a couple small dents. He said the seats still look great and not worn out at all! Toyota did note however, that the bra and skidplate are a little worn, but otherwise it is still a great looking pickup! 

How Did He Wrack Up So Many Miles? 

Victor racked up more than 100,000 miles a year by regularly driving long-haul trips from his home in Louisiana to North Dakota, Wyoming, and Virginia for his job. He is a  huge fan of the Toyota brand, as he just swapped the 2007 Toyota Tundra out for a 2016!
