    Hello Tundras.com community!

    I found this forum a couple of months when I got the Tundra bug and found lots of great information here, so I thought I would join to contribute/ask questions. We have a 4Runner and a Highlander in the family but I am still searching for a Tundra. I'm sure I'll think of a question or two for you fine people. My other vehicle is a 01 Ram 2500 diesel. I've owned since it was new and bought it for heavy hauling. It's been a great truck, but I'm thinking a Tundra would be better now since I hardly ever tow anymore. After 18 years of driving a diesel, I can say I never want another one (except for my tractor). Right now the truck just hauls hay and water so it rarely gets driven. The Highlander will be sold to pay for a lift kit, wheels/tires and possibly gears, we'll see when I get there. I would like to put a 4-6" lift (leaning towards 4) and 35s on 18s so I can enjoy some of the awesome off-roading here in the four corners area. I've seen a couple used Tundras with similar setups, and might go that route if the right one pops up. Ok, enough jabber-jawing, time to go find a Tundra. When I find it, I will post pictures. Happy Weekend to you all!

    :cheers:

    Is that because some of you guys want diesels or because I don't have a tundra yet?:D

    It could get epic due to the shenanigans already started in your intro thread.

    Thanks for the welcome everyone. I've got a lead on a 16 cm with a what looks to be a 4" lift. Going to go look for rub marks and cam tower leaks. Its had 2 owners already with less than 50k miles so that raises a flag to me.
