    Hey all,

    This has been in the works for years, but I finally made the switch to the Tundra after landing a new position. Despite being set on buying one used since 2016~, given the prices used trucks have been going for, I decided to go against my habit and buy new for once, and found the perfect fit: 2020 1794 Edition in Smoked Mesquite. Put about 600 miles on since last Monday, love everything about it!

    Proper photoshoot is on the way, whenever the rain clears up and I can get a proper cleaning in. For now these are the best pictures I have... more to come as I start blowing paychecks on my laundry list of mods.

    Happy to be here!

    Glad you asked,
    1. Tonneau Cover (Recently purchased, installed BAKFlip MX4).
    2. TRD Dual Exhaust
    3. Brush/grille guard, cause I live in deer country. (Looking for something polished/stainless to match the 1794 edition aesthetic).
    4. Level or slight lift, not sure what exact config just yet... planning on keeping the OEM wheels and tires till 30k at least so I want it to match with those.
    5. Head Unit / Sound System upgrade. Entune and JBL sounds decent but I'm willing to pay for better.

    Apart from those big five, I'm also planning on going with other common stuff like drivers grab handle, under-seat storage boxes for the rear, trans cooler install, etc.

    Curse you Perry the Platypus!
    Welcome from East TN! Beautiful truck!!! Nothing wrong with buying a brand new one since the resell on used Toyota trucks is so high. These will last you as long as you want with routine maintenance. Good call.
