    Hello,
    I just purchased a 2019 SR5 in MGM. Love the color. My first modification was to put some air in the tires! Truck came with Michelin LTX MS2's, max pressure @ 51 psi. Door placard suggested 30 in the front and 33 for the rear. I bumped it up to 39 rear and 36 front. Will keep it like that for a while and see how it goes. Future mods: Window tint, tonneau cover; Bak-flip or maybe Roll-n-lock, not sure yet, and a bed mat. Wheels and tires in the future (stock steelies are pretty ugly) and maybe some tube steps, depending on the budget. The budget is what the budget does...Looking forward to being a part of the Tundra family.

    Yeah, me too. The last truck (Ford) was that color and had it for 8 yrs. My first truck (Ford) was that color and had it for 12 yrs. I have always owned Fords but I just feel like their quality has slipped. As for pics, I will work on it and get them posted ASAP

    Here is a quick pic of the truck. The more I see the color in different hours of the day, the better I like it. The pic is not the greatest. Hopefully, I can start working on the chrome a bit. Tundra2.jpg

    Nice truck. Window tint and tonneau cover are definitely two great first additions. If you're shopping for covers I recommend the retrax/gatortrax MX. Super low profile, strong as hell and water tight.

    Thank you all for the welcome. Jimbo, thanks for the Retrax/Gatortrax recommendation. Those look well built and a bit pricey but it appears you get what you pay for. Last truck had a Unicover SE bed cap and it was also good. Not as convenient as a roll up or flip type tonneau but it kept the water out. I'm going to go shopping this weekend as see what I can find.:cheers:

    Congrats on the new truck - great color!

    I have the American Roll cover by Truck Covers USA. It's a great cover, but I see those Roll-N-Lock's from time to time and am jealous of the canister size. I don't know if they've changed it or not, but the Retrax required a key and could not be opened from under the cover. I didn't want another key and opted for the ability to unlock by just opening the tailgate and pulling on a switch. Another thing to consider is any racks that you might want to add on top. I had Truck Covers USA add some rack rails to the cover, but some like Retrax and Pace Edwards have more heavy duty rails built in to some models.

    Enjoy your new ride.
