    Greetings from Jacksonville Florida. I have been researching the forums for a few months now and finally had some time to post.

    After being a loyal Tacoma owner for 10+ years it was time for an upgrade! My wife and I started a family last year and we wanted some extra room. I could not think of a better excuse to upgrade. Below is a pic of the Tacoma. After 170k miles and 10+ years later it was time to let her go. It was actually a little hard because I LOVED this truck!

    That all changed after I got the tundra. I had been researching these trucks for a few years and was instantly reminded why I love Toyota after I drove the tundra. Man these tundras are badass! I ended up getting a 2019 in August as they were making room for the 2020 models.

    After the purchase I had take care of a few things. Living in Florida it gets hot so tint first.

    Then I had to address the storage situation and installed the esp in the back. This helped out a lot.

    Next looking at some 6112/5160. Not sure of my final setup yet.

    I enjoy researching and am amazed at how much information I have learned on this site.


    Cheers,

    tommy
