    What's up, Tundra folks! I have gotten so much great information from this forum - the depth and breadth of knowledge here is pretty incredible! Shout out to xtyfighterx for all the inspiration pics! 3 years with my Tundra and still loving it.

    Welcome! I’d like to add in addition to all the great info about Tundras, what makes this forum better than so many others is peoples willingness to help each other, almost no bashing of fellow users and no political discussion. Thank you everyone for making this a great place.

    I ordered the truck with the cold air intake, and have future plans for a functional ram air hood. I don't think there is a real performance difference unless it is done in conjunction with an exhaust upgrade. Even then, I think the power increase is minimal. If I need an extra boost, I just hit the tow/Haul button!

    I like the sound the aftermarket Cai makes when you give it full throttle
