    Hi everyone.
    After almost 20 years of admiring Tundras, I finally needed a truck so I bought one. It’s nothing fancy, and I probably won’t modify it too much (at least in comparison to my Jeeps), but I am very happy with it and look forward to sharing and learning from others.

    I am autistic, so I may post many things that seem unnecessary. I apologize if I become annoying.

    I am in San Leon, TX right now, but travel around the US....normally staying near the coast.

    So far, I’ve ordered black leather Katzkins and black replacement emblems. I’m always interested in learning of common upgrades to the vehicle that I may not have heard of, if anyone has suggestions.

    My truck is a 2015 SR5 CrewMax 4.6 in Magnetic Grey. It’s theoretically a TSS Off-road edition, but it’s my understanding that it’s more of a gimmick than a trim line. As far as I know, it’s still stock other than the exhaust the previous owner installed.



    I guess I’ve rambled enough. Time to go explore the threads!

    Too be clear, lol, I said I wouldn’t modify it as much as my jeeps. I tend to cut them up and manufacture parts to my specs, and change them up often. I don’t see a lot of cutting or welding, except maybe making my own grill insert. Everything else will probably be bolt-on or stick-on.

    Can you post phots of your leather Katzkins and would you be comfy sharing what you paid? Thinking about doing this myself.

    I paid $550 for the black leather set. I’ve seen beige cheaper, and there are more expensive ones with fancier stitching and upgraded panels.

    I will post photos after I install them. Right now I’m waiting on the seat heaters for the rear to arrive.
