    Hey guys, and welcome to my intro thread!

    I haven't named my truck as I've always found it to be bad ju-ju to name a vehicle.

    Truck came off the showroom floor with a 3/1" level, bro-tastic wheels and tires, spray in bed liner, tint, and rear under seat storage. Other than that, just a regular, no frills SR5 DC.

    Mod list:
    TRD PRO emblems all around
    TRD PRO grille
    Husky liners mats front and rear
    AVS sunshades front and rear
    N-Fab sidesteps
    Elis' Retrofits
    LED interior lights
    Black Tundra tailgate insert
    Stubby antenna
    "Smokers mod" (autosone ashtray)

    Coming soon:
    BA mufflers 8" aluminum exhaust
    Powdercoated front and rear bumper ends
    Fox/King coilovers with Camburg control arms (?)

    I've been around vehicles for a long time, and I hope to keep this truck in the "OEM Plus" category that I have grown fond of over the last decade. I have a soft spot for vehicles that people say "Damn, that looks nice, did you buy it that way?".

    The truck has just under 3500 miles as of the creation of this post, but I'm expecting a lifetime of use out of it, and something that I will never outgrow. I've had friends with Toyota trucks that lasted them over 400k miles collectively. Hoping for more than that out of my Tundra.

    Looking forward to meeting some of you, and chatting with the rest of you!
