Overview & Reviews
Toyota has expanded the Tundra's body style variety by adding a new StepSide model. Its distinctive styling includes flared rear wheel arches and special tail lamps. If you want to make the StepSide even sportier, there is a new sport suspension package available. All 2003 Toyota Tundras have a restyled front fascia, standard antilock brakes and a center console similar to the one found in the Sequoia SUV. For the top-line Limited trim, Toyota has added a power sliding rear window.
- Silky V8, Toyota build quality and reliability, less-than-full-size maneuverability.
- Lacks wide range of choice offered by domestics, somewhat uncomfortable front seats, meager rear cab room on Access Cab, chintzy interior trimmings.

Solid, all-around truck - 2003 Toyota Tundra
By Fester - September 22 - 6:40 pmIf you dont need a heavy-duty work truck, this is the pickup truck for you. The V8 is a good compromise between power and gas mileage--if youre lightly-loaded. It has a smooth, quiet ride, high build quality and (so far) excellent reliability.

My second Big Toyota. - 2003 Toyota Tundra
By JCE20902 - July 27 - 10:00 amI had a 93 T100 and loved it. It only needed tires and oil changes. Thats why I bought a Tundra. Its my second big Toyota truck. Reliable, refined and a great value.

Great Truck - 2003 Toyota Tundra
By C-J - July 21 - 2:00 amThis is an all-around excellent vehicle. I would buy another without a second thought, but i dont expect to any time soon. I use it to haul loads of construction material and debris. I also haul a 20ft fishing boat and have no complaints what so ever. Other than the fuel economy, i cannot say one bad thing about it. The rear seats are fairly roomie for passengers

Consumer Reports is dead right - 2003 Toyota Tundra
By TRDTundra - June 22 - 12:03 pmWhat a great truck. Dont believe the BS about how this truck doesnt tow like the domestic counterparts. I have the factory towing package and this truck tows my 21 foot Bass Boat like it wasnt even hooked up back there. Drives and rides very smooth, almost like a quality sedan. Of course, it also has Toyota reliability and warranty.

Needs much improvement - 2003 Toyota Tundra
By Barry - March 2 - 10:00 amTruck is a 2000. Many quiet recalls. . Wrong dip stick, Replaced rear shocks, CD player. Trans shifting, security system, and rear door problems. Really bad brakes. Still not fixed after 2 + years. Weak low-end torque. Fair fuel economy. Too soft a real work truck. Not designed for recreation either. Useless rear seat. Weak bumpers. Trans is cold blooded. Up shifts too soon when cold. Too much tappet noise for a new truck. Rear door mechanism needs work. Not a serious truck. Dont be suckered in by resale figures, or reliability ratings, or sales hype. Buy one of the big three or a Tacoma would be a better choice.

Terrific Tundra - 2003 Toyota Tundra
By dsakers - March 2 - 10:00 amAs an owner of several other trucks, my experience with the Tundra has been excellent. The ride is smooth and quiet, the interior is comfortable and well designed. The build quality of this truck is excellent in all aspects. Only gripes are that turning radius is fairly large and requires some planning for U turns etc. The rear seats could also use a few more inches of space. My Tundra has been getting very close to the rated milage for both city and highway. The engine is responsive with plenty of torque. I test drove Ford, Dodge, Nissan and Toyota (Tacoma) trucks before selecting the Tundra. Good Choice!
