    After over a month of research and driving various new trucks I ended up with a used 2015 Tundra Limited Crew Max, with only 17k on the clock. This truck looks and drives like a brand new truck. I have on Order Weather Tech Flores matts, and a TruXedo Tonneau cover. Next will be a trailer brake control. I just haven't decided to get the OEM control unit, or an P3.
    As a completely retired couple, we are looking forward to traveling, and enjoying our Tundra.

    We are having very bad wind/dust storms today, and maybe for the next few days. That's Spring-time in southern NM. Right now she is in the garage, like a fat lady in a tight dress. There's no room to take a shot. I'll post one ASAP.

    Thanks for all the welcomes. GNTundra asked where I live. I live in Las Cruces, about 40 minutes north of El Paso, TX. We retired here in September 2015. I retired from the Air Force in 96, and then taught AFJROTC for 19 years.

    The OBX is a very nice, as I have visited there with my AFJROTC students. It was a long bus drive from Reidsville, but we had a great time! I miss those Carolina beaches.
