    2019 Tundra Black Platinum
    Last December I traded my '07 Tundra SR5 with 178,000 well served miles in on a '14 Limited with 46k on the clock, besides gas all the '07 required was frequent brakes and tires. So it was a mild shock to have a real wheel bearing go bad on it this summer, full warranty though. Anyway, I took it in for a service two weeks ago and it needed a rear main seal leak fixed ( again warranty) and they told me it needed brakes soon. Well damn son, I had no desire to deal with any of it. So I walked out with a shiny new '19 Platinum edition. I must say in the 5 years between my 14 and this one they certainly tweaked a few things for the better. First thing is they back lit the dash, improved the sound from the JBL stereo , it's much fuller sounding now. And it could be a combination of a few things but the ride is much better, the '14 had the TRD off road package, the '19 doesn't but does have the sport rear anti sway bar, and possibly the Bridgestone tires are more of a road tire versus the Michelins I had on the 14. Oh yeah the seats are much more comfortable than the ones in the '14, I can see lots of trips in this ride! Below is the twin to mine at the dealer, except mine had running boards. Thanks for the add folks.
