Yea I have tried that, but the only way to get the max from them is manual adjustment. For those that wondered, the '06 Tundra has drum rear brakes.
I have take apart my rear brakes and made sure everything is nice and free. I also bought a brake hardware kit. There's a steel arm that's inside an aluminum housing with a rubber boot around it that the parking brake cable attaches to. That was corroded so I removed it, disassembled it, and when I reassembled it I filled inside the boot with anti-seize. So everything works great now. My rear brakes will adjust but I have to do the "put it in reverse, parking brake half way applied, and pump the brake" trick.
I don't know if all of the Tundra got them but at least some 07 Tundras got rear disk brakes. Before that the rear brakes are drum and are not all that great of a design. Their older drum brakes were a better set up, not great but better.
