Hello all,

I finally bought another truck! Whoo Hoo!

I used to have a 2013 Tundra Double Cab TRD but ended up selling it a year or so later due to the high payments (almost $600/mo) and other debt.

After paying off all my debt and saving up some money I bought my first home with my wife and our 20 month old daughter!

Anyway, I finally ended up with a 2008 Tundra Crewmax TRD with a canopy, and it's great since it won't be a strain to pay it off. Only 125k miles and one owner, seems well taken care of and good service records.

Looking forward to getting the truck, hopefully today after being detailed by the dealership, it was a recent trade. Also learning about different customization options, as I can afford them I might do some things here and there.

Glad to be a part of the forum.

Clean looking truck! Welcome!

 

Welcome to the forum!

 

Welcome from Hillsboro!

 

Thanks, I'm down the road in St. Helens! ;-)

 

Not far from me. I keep eyeing other Tundras when I am out and wonder if any of them are forum members.

 

Haha, one of them is now ;-) I have worked and lived in the Hillsboro area most of my life.

I'm getting antsy about the dealership not calling me yet to pick up the truck! haha

 

Which dealer? I am actually heading in for my first service in about an hour.

 

Also, just noticed the sweet rack and basket setup on the topper. Nice bonus!

 

Well none of them have been me...still waiting on my 2021 MGM Platinum to show up. Hopefully here by the end of the month.

My prior truck was a 2002 Tundra Limited. Sold that back in June and have been truckless since. It's been a tough wait.

Welcome!

 

Damerow Ford had it as a trade in. I was originally just driving down the road to see what trucks were out there, happened to go by this dealer and they had this truck, only one I was interested in so it worked out

 

Yeah hehe, I'm not sure about the basket but I do like the canopy.

We had a similar basket on our 2016 Kia Soul we traded in. *shrug*

 

Welcome from Eugene

 

Welcome from straight over the river and up the hills a ways (NE of La Center - can see St. Helens on my way down toward town on a clear day).

 

Nice, thanks!

I'm quite a ways (about 44 miles) from Mount Saint Helens, I'm a bit confused why they named it that...Lol. I live near Scappoose, OR.

 

Welcome from Delaware
Nice ride

Thank you for Your Service For US

Welcome from WA.

Congrats on the purchase, reduced debt, and the new house for your family!

 

Yeah I figured you meant the town in Oregon - directly across the river from Ridgefield. I’ve worked at the mill there a few times over the years.
As I’m heading west down toward I5 from my house in the morning, I can see the hills above St. Helens (and sometimes the steam off the mill)

Welcome from Tualatin

 

Oh ok nice! A lot of people get the two mixed up...hehe.

 

Well good news, the dealer found that the radiator did not hold up in the pressure test so they replaced the radiator free of charge! One less thing to worry about so that's good ;-) Looks like I'll get it Monday, there is a tear in the driver's seat that they are having sewn up.

 

Welcome from LA (Lower Alabama)! And Congrats on setting your priorities so early in life and getting that debt under control!
