    Hello ya'll!
    I've been enjoying this forum and hopefully I can add more and more to this awesome truck! It's been crazy in the landscaping business so I dirtied up everything super fast before I could get clean pics but they will be coming in soon!

    First I got the Carhartt seat covers but no pics yet.
    Then I put in the weathertech

    weathertech backseat.jpg
    And now I have the apex bed rack with headache rack to put on and I'm wondering if I should attach it on top of the plastic bed cap? I took the bed cap off and it looks funny with all those clip holes in it and I'm wondering what some of ya'll did for this issue?

    Nice looking truck!! Since you're in the landscaping biz, I'm assuming you tow and haul quite a bit? I'd invest in some airbags and lift the front 3 inches, get some mean shoes (y'know for the mud and slick grass. Just in case you need to sell your wife on ponying up over $1000 for aggro tires)
    You'd have my business if you rolled up in a truck like that! LOL

    I'd even be willing to overlook the fact that you're a Miss state fan. Nobody's perfect anyways. :bananadance:

    That's what I'm hoping! That's a good idea, definitely putting away money for some tires. This was one job today, we process mulch from the tree crew and the crew needed about 3 more yards, not a problem with the tundra.

    Good thing about tundras, they can handle near everything you throw at them. Take care of it, it'll take care of you!

    Wanting to beef it up for a great looking work truck! Have any good threads I should research? I don't have lots of plans but I'm hoping to learn a lot working on the new to me tundra!

    Nice looking truck!!! Love seeing a Tundra put to work. She won't fail ya.
    Please post up some pics of the Carhart seat covers when you can. I have been looking at those. They're not too pricey but look nice and clean.

    Probably because of the fact that we like to drink! LOL I always say LSU fans aren't fans, we're just a drinking city with a football problem! LOL

    So technically the answer to your Q is never, unless you count when he was an assistant.

    :spy:

    Should be a great game this year! Could see either team playing for a National Championship.

    I really like them and they seem to be sitting nice after about a month of wear. I wish they had a console cover. I'm a fan of the dungarees!
