    Traded in my 18 TRD Off Road 4Runner on Tuesday for a 2018 SR5 4x4 Crewmax! Love the drive and room in this thing! I really just use it for commuting but always wanted a Tundra. Plus I miss the MagGray. LED fogs installed today and have LED headlights en’route.
    Forgot to add I have a Pedal Commander I carried over to the Tundra from the 4Runner, sweet mother of Fun it’s awesome!

    Congrats! What do you mean about LED headlights en route? Do you not like the new stock LED headlights?

    Edit: Ah, never mind, I see you got the trim without the package that gives you halogens. Congrats on the LEDs too!

    I could never go back to the Runner after having the Tundra. In fact, V6 engines in larger vehicles are dead to me now unless they are super charged.

    I hear you. I had a 2000 Runner. Sorry I sold it. But those V6’s are dogs. I never drove the V8 Runner. If we didn’t like my wife’s Subaru so much, she’d have a Runner now.

    All the stock V8 vehicles I have previously owned had carburetors. They were all dogs without flat tops, roller rockers and hot cam shafts. The 5.7, right out of the box, is a hot rod to me. Nice truck!!!

    Nice! But damn... I love the 4Runners. If I didn’t pull a camper, that’s what I’d have in a second. My buddy just bought a new 4Runner TRD Pro - had to go to AZ from GA to get it.

    Below is a pic from yesterday headed out to ride.
