Let's see your first gen - photo thread

It's rarely clean, this is about the best I can do. Some custom "deer damage" below the driver front and rear door.

 

Pretty jealous of some of the rigs on here. Beautiful trucks. Wish I could find the elusive 2006 double cab under 100k miles in 4WD limited for less than $1.2 million

 

Edit.... it's a scam

 

This can't be real????!!!!

 

It's probably the down payment amount. Dealers do that crap all the time!

 

The address and google search pops up a car wash chemicals company.

Edit. NVM looking at the wrong address. Can't find that dealership listed in GA

 

I'm sure that's the down payment as mentioned....and in GA there are a ton of small "dealerships" that people with dealer's licenses run out of their houses...

 

Ignore it, it's a scam....I enquired and got this...which is exactly the reply I got from a FB 4runner that was a scam...FB has a bunch of those.

Kinda figured. I love that blue color.

 

Here’s a nice looking blue with the timing belt done but $12,500 is a bit steep...

(No ties to this truck)

 

That's not actually a bad price at all.

 

Agreed, maybe $1-2k high. Extra $ for that lovely Bluesteel Mica/Metallic...

 

I like the brighter blue better. It's about what I have found ones that mileage and location as far as price. There are some crazy CA guys asking over 20g for some

 

I’m trying to remember, but is there a thread for facebutt/dreggsliss sales? I really like seeing other members Tundras posted here.

Maybe we create a separate for ‘1st Gen lookie here at this one for sale thread’ as I do like perusing the market from time to time just like you guys. Its cool seeing the prices/condition of our 1st Gens around the country.

 

I just saw 2 T3's in my town in the same day earlier this week. One black in my neighborhood and one near my old neighborhood and it was imperial Jade. I assumed the green T3 was either fake decals or a figment of my imagination. So crazy. I wish I got a pic of the green one. I was driving and it passed me going the other way.

Hate you!!!!!!

 

I love you too sweetheart.

 

Hey all. New here, just stumbled across this forum recently. It seems like there is a lot of 1st Gen activity here which is good. I'm from Savannah, Ga. but spend most of my time the past few years in Colorado and the desert southwest. I love prospecting and with the need to be off road and overlanding I have landed here. I've had lots of Taco's over the years but the purchase of my 2006 Tundra about a year ago has really been an eye opener. I just love the truck. Wasn't too thrilled about the timing belt replacement issues at first but finally realized the payoff of just dealing with it and moving on. I recently had to take care of a recall issue on "Trigger" (my truck) and was given a 2019 Taco as a loaner. I didn't make it one mile before I was longing to be back in my own truck. I will never go back to the Taco or forward to the Tundra "tanks".
I plan to build an off road trailer in the next few months so everything you see on the bed of my truck will move to the trailer. I am going to put a shell on the truck. The truck/trailer will be self contained for extended off grid use soon. (This is my last build of off grid....lacked the 4x4 needed.) Then I will be headed back out west.
But for now here is my platform:
PHOTOS




$7,000.00 Stuff:
most was mechanical/ maintenance catch-up all done by the dealer
Bilstein 5100 installed by dealer
every moving part plus water pump and seals inside the timing belt housing replaced by dealer
100,000 mile / plus maintenance by self and dealer
all visible accessories by me

(yes, I plan on keeping for a long time)

 

Sorry, photos didn't post:

 

Looks good!

 

Good looking truck but I think you need to mount that tent a little higher. Go big or go home man!! I like the color you painted those wheels too.

 

Did you have the rims chromed? I can't quiet figure it out...but they look nice!

 

When I zoom in on my phone it looks like they have carbon fiber look wrap on them....but maybye they are just powder coated dark charcoal and the carbon fiber look is created by pixelation on my cheap phone...

 

It's actually amazing that someone finally spotted the painted wheels. LOL The first time ever. And I love it. One thing about "Trigger" is low budget. I pride myself in that respect. I could go out and buy a set of wheels .....$1000+++ and ride around the neighborhood and try to impress the wantabees, not my goal. $ 1000.00 is a lot of kick butt miles, lots of beautiful camping spots on top of the world.
I actually love the height of the tent too. You know why? Go ahead, your allowed to guess? Some dummys would ask why the rack up front with the lights? Some dummys would ask whats up with that? Some dummys sit at home at don't get out there. Some dummys dont have real "lock boxes" on their trucks.
There are just dummys out there. I cant explain it. But when that dummy is sitting on his couch in the trailer I will be "out there".

Little boys play little boys games, I dont.
Get off your couch, try to do what I've done in the last ten years and I'm 62 years old, then come back with your innuendos.
Have A Nice Life

 

I was being serious about the wheels. I like them. And I was just messing with you about the Trump Tower Tent.
