    Not enough....
    Well, last night I picked up my new to me 2016 Crewmax SR5 with the TRD and towing package. It has just under 85k miles and I picked it up for $26.5k out the door from a wonderful small car lot in NJ. No extra fees, or nonsense. It is incredibly clean and was used just for commuting, so it's had an easy life. It's exactly what I wanted, as I didn't want the extra Limited features or price tag, but I wanted the CM since I'll be putting a baby seat in there soon!

    It has a few upgrades I've noticed, but I have yet to look too in depth. Obviously the headlights and taillights are different, it has some sort of aftermarket remote start, the stock wheels & emblems have been plasti dipped, a tonneau cover (however it's a flip and I really want to swap it for a roll up) and luckily full Husky floor mats.

    I've had my 2001 Tundra (seen below) since 2004 and now has just over 172k miles; it was actually my first vehicle ever. So now it's time to clean it up and post it for sale. I've already been shopping for wheels & tires, lifts, & better side steps/sliders. It is a slippery slope.....

    Thanks for the warm welcome guys.

    I loved building my 2001 over the years. Endless mods and tons of off-roading, but it has been a back burner work truck for a few years now. I definitely was looking forward to having more interior space in the CM for when our little human arrives soon!

    I used to be really active on tundrasoltuions back in the day, but this forum seems a little more active these days.
