    2016 Inferno Orange SR5
    TRD Offroad, Tow Package, Crewmax
    Hello Fellow Tundra Enthusiasts!

    I am the proud owner of a new to me 2016 Inferno Orange SR5 Toyota Tundra CrewMax with TRD offroad and Tow package. It had 32000 miles on it when I got it and I have driven about 4000 miles since. I have wanted a truck for about 15 years but family and kids and job situations have always prevented it. I have always been impressed with my father-in-laws 2006 Tundra but with child seats it was always cramped. I have always had Ford vehicles but was tired of them always being in the shop for something or another. This last February my wife decided it was time to reward me for being patient and gave me the go ahead get my truck! Orange is of course my 6 year olds favorite color so when I found a Tundra with all the options I wanted and it happened to be Orange I had to get it.


    This summer I decided to see what it could do and took it to the back roads in Northern Idaho, Montana, and Eastern Washington. We traveled and camped only on forest roads for a week and a half with the paved roads only being used for gas trips. I had to throw it in 4wd a couple times and I got my first scratch which I still think I can buff out but haven't had a chance to.

    I have lurked on this site for the last 6 months and love the great information I have gathered so far, and now I have decided to be a part of it all.

    Now for some pictures,
    The day I purchased it,

    Welcome! Absolutely gorgeous truck. I like my blazing blue pearl, but I can admit that inferno really is the best color.
