New Truck, Who Dis?

Nice build. I look forward to seeing the wrap.

 

Can’t wait to see this!

 

So if you were 20k miles over the limit on your old lease, that's like $3600. Did they just forgive that when you leased your new Tundra?

 

No, the dealer took it as a trade in AND actually gave me 3600$ for all the parts i had installed 2 months prior to trading. So at the end of a lease, regardless of your mileage , you do not take any penalty’s if you buy your truck at the end, or if you trade it in. But if you do a lease return, and are over mileage or have excessive wear, you will get hit. It really doesn’t make any sense to turn in your lease, unless you just want to return it and not get another vehicle.

 

Gotcha. Sounds like you made out pretty good. My local Toyota dealer would never give extra $$ for add-ons. I've bought/leased several vehicles from them, but they just wanna screw you as much as they can.

 

They like me because I roll around with 2 of (biased opinion) the most appealing trucks in the area. I do some work with them as well. As you can see, their logo is going on the wrap. I am a little baffled by it to be honest but its pretty neat. They appraised it at 28k and she gave me more which was more than that. KBB trade in was 27k. She's pretty rad to work with and just about everyone at our dealer is.

 

Here's the wife's truck. Toytec boss kit on this is soooo comfy . I drive it a lot.

 

I think they just like you! Nice truck buddie! Can’t wait to see it done up. You will like the new suspension. That’s what I am on right now.

 

Oooof! Loving it so far. Still have to wrap the front and rear bumper caps and decide if I want to black out the Ltd grille or get a pro grille. This vinyl matched quicksand perfect tho.

 

Looks great Matt. Hope it does well for you!

 

Sick! Already like it over your old rig lol.
Gotta color match those handles.
My vote goes with pro grill. But looks good either way.

 

That really does look great, the entire truck. I really like the stance.

 

I really hate the vinyl that is color matched, it’s kinda shit. So I went with satin black on the handles instead. I can always change it, but one of my mirror caps is already failing and that is basically flat. I want a pro grille but it’s not worth the money. The dealership gave me a takeoff SR5 grille that I put on. Don’t love it. I’m going to go with my original plan on the limited grille. If I have a productive week, I will definitely get it done. Carven exhaust comes Wednesday and I need to get the bed lined ASAP. I love this thing over the old truck. It’s incredible.

 

Nice set up! What was your wheels specs?

Did you run a diff drop and a carrier bearing drop as well?

Subbed

 

- Method MR309 18x9 18 offset

I did do a diff drop but no carrier bearing. After reading about the shake and definitely feeling it, I think I want to do that.

 

I installed the carven exhaust today. Took 45 minutes for me to pull the oem and install/torque the new system. Sounds amazing. Clip on my Instagram

It sounds insanely loud in the clip but it is crisp in person and is quiet at 80mph. Coming from performance curve magnaflow eBay setup, I’m in love.

 

That was exhausting, but finally got it done, planned to do Bedliner and bumper caps today too but that was 6 hours of labor on the grille
I’m happy with the result.

 

You wrapped that?? Looks awesome!

 

Yea, it was a lot of logic and time. My brain and my back hurt. HA!

 

That look so freakin sick. It makes my QS so plain.lol

 

Good looking truck! Please make me some Trd decals for my 1794 sunset bronze before you finish
your wrap project!

 

So clean!

 

@DecalsByDesign Hi. Wanted to see what you thought of that Craven exhaust now that you've had it a few months. Still love it, any issues? Drone?

 

Hey @TTU19 I still love it. It's loud, not sure how it compares to other systems as far as drone, but it doesn't bother me. So far so good, wouldn't go back to what I had before. Love the sound, especially with the windows down.

 

Limited Grill on your old SR5?

 

yea it was.

 

He lives!!!

 

Can you please tell me what your specs were on your mgm as far as tires and wheels? Congrats on the new one as well!

 

Hey sorry, turned off my notifications. They are MR306’s with Terra Grappler G2 295/70-18 C load range. Running the same tires now with the MR309

 

Got it! Thx for the reply
