Just bought a new 2017 sel awd 3.5. (Yes a new 2017 in November of 2018) Dealer said it was just leftover. But I got it for 25,000 out the door with 50 miles on it so I figured it was a ok deal. I like it so far. But after reading about the water pump location and ptu issues I’m a little worried about reliability. I’ve had Toyota’s in the past. The low price is why I bought it honestly. I really hope this is a good vehicle as I want to keep it a long time.

Thanks. I am glad to know the ptu has a drain plug. This will be mostly used for road trips back home (military family). I will be sure to change the ptu fluid every 20k and coolant every 30k. Maybe once a year since I am a worrier about maintenance lol. This sure is a thirsty suv tho. About 17 mpg so far hope it gets better as it gets broken in more.
