    So, I guess you can say I upgraded haha.
    I come from tacomaworld where I met nothing but cool people and learned a few things from the big variety of threads.
    So I now have a 2017 Toyota Tundra SR5 CrewMax, purchased on January 1, 2017(had to start the year off right).
    In the week that I've had it, I've done a few things such as; getting dual carven mufflers, tint, installed an ultra gauge, fox factory extended Coilovers, total chaos uca, and 33s with wheels which were preciously in my Tacoma. Yes, they have adapters.

    Had to leave my very loved 2013 Tacoma TRD Sport due to transmission issues, simply did not want to deal with all the mess and future problems that might have come even after fixing it.

    Below is pictures of my previously owned black Tacoma at the trade in dealer, along with others after the few mods.

    It hurt to let it go, but think it was for the best.
    I'm rubbing 33s with adapters haha maybe after some etching id be able to fit 35s. If not a bigger lift. But I am looking forward to 35s perhaps bigger.
