    Hi all - new tundra owner in the metro Minneapolis area. My wife decided she was tired of the crossover crowd and wanted something with more character for the family.. I didn’t complain!! :yes:

    We ended up with a 2017 CM sr5 that had quite a bit of dealer mods done to it. Wife saw it and fell in love before I could push towards the stock route and do our own mods — oh well!

    TRD pro grille will be first DIY mod.

    Thanks for all the great info!
