The 1,000,000 Mile Toyota Tundra

The one million mile Toyota Tundra Story. In 2007 a man by the name of Victor Sheppard purchased a new Toyota Tundra and proclaimed he would put a million miles on it...nine years later he did, reaching 1,020,130 miles on the original engine and transmission.

Shortly after, Toyota came calling. They wanted to buy his truck, tear it down, and study it to see what they could learn for future production development. But Victor needed some convincing to give up his truck.

Incredibly, Toyota valued the truck at eight thousand dollars, which is quite the retained value considering the truck had an M S R P of twenty six thousand, eight hundred, and fifty dollars in 2007. But in the end, Victor decided to swap out his one million mile Tundra for a brand new 2016 Toyota Tundra Double Cab Limited courtesy of Toyota.
