    I just found this YouTube page called Adventure Vehicle Reviews. Finally, a review that is worthy of the Tundra. You have to see this!

    Nice video. Not as awesome as the "border to border" clip when they took the stock Pro up hells revenge in Moab (3 times)
    But still really nice. They should stop acting surprised when the tundra goes wherever it's pointed though.

    Good vid. Thanks for sharing. Glad they mentioned the tires being Mich and have 40K miles on 'em. Usually on these youtube reviews they never mention tires and put the trucks/cars in places in shouldn't be in with the tires it has; can't fault any vehicle for not performing as wanted if you are not prepared accordingly. But these guys did, so good. And stock tires did handle pretty good too.

    Thanks for the response guys. If my research is correct, part 2 should be released soon. It appears these guys are military veterans with various driving experience. I agree they could use some improvements but at least they are not as corny as TFLtruck.

    I can't wait to put a good set of off road tires on my truck. That's really what those guys needed for a trip like that. Makes all the difference in the world for traction.

    Yep, me too. I show it to people often, especially those not familiar with the Tundra capabilities.

    They really are great trucks. Awesome ground clearance, reliability, good 4x4 system. Not the fanciest 1/2 ton on the road but I like my trucks to be trucks. I don't want to sacrifice ground clearance for fuel mileage. I need a capable 4x4 truck that won't break down. They aren't given the credit or attention that they really deserve.

    looks like they just released part 2. AVR seems very diligent in their knowledge and spoke about various topics which I felt had been neglected by others. Very good review.

    The second vid mentions Baja Designs Squadron Pro fog lights replacements. They say they are plug and play. Is that true?
