Showing results 1 - 24 of 648
648 Toyota Tundra lots for sale across 194+ Copart locations – model years 2000–2026, avg. mileage 163,000 mi. 29% clean title, 69% salvage; Front End is the top damage (48%). Bids start at $200, and recent Tundras sold for a median winning bid around $4,000.
The Tundra is the full-size truck in Toyota's auction pool, and here it's the value play next to its smaller sibling. Over the last two years 40 salvage and repairable Tundras sold here, most between $3,000 and $7,300 before fees; front-end damage led at 25%, with minor dents and plain normal wear close behind – a good share of these are high-mileage work trucks rather than wrecks. The median sits well under the Tacoma's because the pool skews older, deep into the 2007–2021 second generation. All of them stayed in the US, picked up locally or shipped in-country.
Two things decide a Tundra. First, the frame: it's body-on-frame, and both the 2000–2003 and the 2007–2008 trucks went through Toyota frame-rust programs, so look at the rails and the rear crossmember before you look at anything else. A front hit that shoved the frame horns back belongs in the parts column. Second, the engine. The 5.7 V8 that powered most second-gen trucks is close to unkillable, but it has habits – exhaust manifolds crack and tick on cold start, the secondary air injection pump throws codes on 2007–2013 trucks and drops them into limp mode, and cam tower seals weep oil onto the exhaust. None of that is expensive next to a frame. The 4.7 V8 in the older trucks needs its timing belt on schedule, so ask when it was done. The 2022-and-newer third generation dropped the V8 for a twin-turbo V6 and an i-FORCE MAX hybrid, and Toyota recalled a run of 2022–2023 engines for main-bearing debris with full engine replacement – check whether that work was done before you price one. Beds are steel on this truck, so dents are just dents. If the frame's gone, the non-repairable Tundra lots still move for the 5.7 and its running gear.
Buying is quick: register free – no dealer license – set a maximum bid and the system bids up to that cap, or take a truck at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.
Note: ACV and damage data come from the original auction listing. Always check the condition and title yourself before you bid.
FAQ
What condition are these Tundras in?
About 648 lots, 69% on a salvage title and the rest clean or rebuilt. Front End leads at 48%, and a real share of the pool is high-mileage normal-wear trucks rather than collisions; mileage averages about 163,000. Almost all are the standard Tundra pickup body.
Is a salvage Tundra worth buying?
Yes on a straight frame with a healthy 5.7 – it's the cheapest way into a Toyota full-size. Recent Tundras sold for a median winning bid around $4,000 before fees, most between $3,000 and $7,300, so there's real room over a clean-title Tundra. A rusted frame or a 2022–2023 engine that never got its recall is where it stops.
What should I check before bidding?
Frame rails and the rear crossmember first, especially on 2000–2008 trucks. Then the engine – manifold tick and air-injection codes on the 5.7, timing-belt history on the 4.7, recall paperwork on 2022–2023 turbo trucks. Cross-check the title brand against the damage photos; they don't always agree.
Can I insure and register a salvage Tundra?
Not while it's salvage-titled. You register and insure it only after it's rebuilt and passes a state inspection; once re-titled rebuilt, most insurers will write it – just usually not the one that totaled it. Check with your insurer before you bid.
How does the auction work?
Register free, no dealer license needed. Set a maximum bid and the system bids for you up to that cap, or take a lot at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export – the paperwork's handled.
How do I check a Tundra's history?
Every lot shows the VIN, damage type and title brand. Run the VIN through a vehicle-history report for prior accidents, mileage and title events; a frame or engine replacement under recall usually shows up in the same record.
What are good alternatives to the Tundra?
The Ford F-150 and Ram 1500 cover the same half-ton ground in far bigger numbers, so there's more to choose from. If you don't need full-size, the Tacoma is the smaller Toyota with the stronger resale.
