Toyota Tundra Holds Its Value: 2021 Model Sells for $48,000 After 5 Years and 40,000 Miles

A Torque News reader received a postcard from a Toyota dealer offering to buy her 2021 Tundra 1794 Edition with 40,000 miles. After doing her research, she sold it for $48,000, close to its original base price. The Tundra’s strong resale value is due to its top trim, low mileage, one owner, Toyota’s reputation, and the 5.7 liter V8 engine. Dealers send postcards offering to buy cars because good used vehicles are hard to find, but it’s essential to compare offers and do your research before selling. Angie’s experience shows that getting an instant online offer from a buyer like CarMax and comparing it with the dealer’s offer can help you get the best price for your vehicle. She traded in her Tundra for two new Toyotas, a Highlander and a Prius, which made sense for her family’s needs and provided significant fuel savings.
