What did you drive before the Tundra?

Lol I thought it was intentional! I picked out the fj behind there and thought you were clever and felt dumb for looking for another!

 

Nope. That was all me. Lol

 

1970 Chevelle Laguna Blew it up rebuilt blew up again
1973 Pontiac Grand Prix loved that car tore it to pieces (power everything)
1972 Ford Pinto (would have blown up if hit from behind) POS
1975 Ford Station Wagon got it from my dad because I tore up the previous ones nothing to drive
70ish Mercury Capri first car with sunroof still POS
1995 Ford Ranger extended cab XLT 2 wheel drive 30k miles tore up two transmissions pulling boats around
1990 F-150 got rid of quick transmission issues
1994 Mazda B-3000 standard cab 2wheel drive manual transmission. traded in on Tundra (got a whopping $700.00) wait that's what I had in it
1971 Camaro totaled in accident
2000 Chevy Blazer engine problems
1999 4 runner Limited 4 wheel drive sunroof etc. sitting in the driveway will never get rid of until it dies.
2010 Tundra SR5 Think I will be keeping it too.
forgot about the Corolla can't remember the year, ran for a long time

Might as well get the motorcycles
Kawasaki 175 enduro always ran into the woods when the police came around. too young for license.
1970ish Suzuki GN 400. stolen
1996 Honda VT 1100 ACE trying to sell it

'83 Toyota Pickup, 4wd, 22R 4spd. Body was rough and 3 or 4 different shades of primer grey, flat decked it about a year before I sold it. Had for 5 years, sold it and put the $ toward an engagement ring.

1982 VW Jetta 4dr. 1.7L 5spd when I got it, 1.8L with a rebuilt 5spd when I sold it 5 years later. Bought for $500, drove the bag off it, and sold it for $550. Of course, I put a lot of parts and time into it.

1996 Honda Civic hatchback, CX bare bones base model 1.6 5spd. Was the wife's when we met, I took it over for a commuter after a couple years, when we bought her a 2001 Corolla, 351,000km and counting on it now. Drove the honda for a couple years before selling it. Sorry to see it go, mileage was awesome.

Bought an '84 Toyota extra cab 4x4 pickup, with the rare diesel, as a project / toy. Lots of regrets buying that one, I ended up swapping a 22re into it that I built for it, rebuilding the transmission that jumped out of gear, and putting countless hours into it. Sold it at a loss with a patched up rusty frame after a couple years.

2006 Tacoma 4wd double cab short box, 4.0L 6spd manual, great truck. Had for 6.5 years, someone who couldn't drive a pointy stick up an elephant's rear end took it's life last fall, thankfully I fared better in the wreck.

2008 Tundra DC 5.7, mmm mmm mmm, I'm loving it. I do miss the Tacoma on the bush roads, but that's the only time.

 

Went from a 2005 Tacoma to a 2007 Chevy Duramax then to my current 2015 Tundra!
Miss both of my old trucks for different reasons but really enjoy the tundra! Oh and im 29 years old...

 

2006 GTO -> 2008 750li -> the tundra (7 series to tundra has been a difference)

 

Yeah, the tundra didn't need to be in the shop every other month unlike the bimmer.

amazingly, BMW was pretty damn reliable.....put 125K miles on it......that said.....resale was unreal. I got offered $1,700 on trade in. For a car less then 10 years old with a $100K sticker

 

A few of my previous cars:

2000 Mustang GT with DSS ProMod 4.6L short block, heads, cams, TKO-500, ATI Procharger DS-1C, and anything else you can think of. Right at 600 rwhp.



2004 CLK500



Wife's 2013 Explorer Sport. Totaled last Christmas Eve. Replaced it with a 2016 Platinum. More luxurious interior with the same 3.5L twin turbo.


2011 Mustang GT with Cobra Jet intake, exhaust, etc.




2001 Ford Lightning with exhaust and shift kit (couldn't find a picture of mine, so pulled this off internet. Looked identical, but with 2001 wheels.)



2002 Ford Lighting with 2.3L Kenne Bell supercharger, MagnaFlow full SS exhaust, Full Hotchkins suspension.

Dodge Neon (first car I owned fresh out of High School) It was in the dealer getting repaired like every week, even as a new car, which is why that was the first and last time I would ever buy and "American" brand car.

Honda Civic

Honda CRV

Toyota Camry

Subaru Baja

Honda Ridgeline

First Toyota Tundra (my boyfriend at the time talked me into it, and now I have an addiction)

Second Toyota Tundra

Honda CRV

Toyota Tacoma

Toyota Tacoma

Toyota Highlander (I would still have this if I didn't own a house and need a truck bed)

Toyota Tundra (This was a 2019 Sx, but it was black on black and I just HATED the color scheme so much it had go)

Toyota Tundra.... (the one I currently own and hope to keep for a while)


I am not hat old, I just have an obsession and love for new vehicles ,and I get bored easy. I am hoping to keep my current Tundra for at least a few years... The 2022 might be irresistible though! Since my first Tundra I have always had 10K in equity with each trade after that because I bought it during the 2011 recession and they were practically giving them away. I paid, no lie, like 25K for a brand new SR5 Tundra! That was when gas prices were over 4.00 a gallon.

First car was 1975 Firebird, too many Chevy low riders to list, first Tundra in 2012, couple of Jeep JK’s then current Tundra....this was the last Jeep..

 

‘90 Camaro RS, thats me holding my rooster Bobby. He was cool as hell.

‘10 Camaro, no pic on phone, too lazy to get on my computer.
‘12 Wrangler Sport

‘15 Taco TRD Sport

‘18 Tundra TRD Off Road


And sweet jesus I dont wanna buy anymore vehicles. I have a new glider arriving in two weeks and a motorcycle in the basement. Thats enough.

 

1997 F150, 2004 Sporttrac, 2009 Tacoma, and last a 2013 Baja Tacoma. Both the Fords were actually good trucks. Sold them with 185k on odo. The Baja was a beast in 4lo with locker engaged.

 

1998 Civic - bought used. Sold it to my brother the year I graduated from university so he could work a summer job 200 miles away. Some street racers stole it and swapped an Acura engine into it so he let the police sell it or scrap it or whatever they do with recovered stolen vehicles.

2012 Kia Forte Koup SX - bought new. Still have it in my garage. Planning to sell it once the pandemic cools off.

And my wife has a 2013 Corolla. Before that, she had a Chevy Crapalier that died on her a couple days before she started her first full time job.

 

I always specialized in "hand-me-downs" ~ had a bunch of them before I broke down and bought a new/used 2005 RCLB Tundra years ago.
My other half had an aging El Camino that served me well for some time ~ 1981 model with a V6 automatic transmission.
My dad passed on and I took over his 1982 Ford F-100 ~ Inline 6 with a manual transmission.
Forty years ago I had a 1972 Ford Pinto ~ Inline 4 with a manual transmission.

I've not owned a lot of vehicles but this Tundra (it's a stripper not a loaded version) is by far the nicest vehicle I've ever owned.

 

If this color was still available on the 2021 Tundra, this is what I would have gotten.

 

I'd have a pretty hard time parting with that! What's your Tundra look like? (Yup, I'm about to stalk your pictures)

 

A 1998 Isuzu Trooper. Loved it. I'd still be driving it if you didn't have to pull the engine to replace the starter.

 

Had a 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt SS Supercharged and 2016 Toyota Tacoma SR5 4x4.
Got $22,500 trade in for the Tacoma with 79k miles for my Tundra.

 

My first car was a Hyundai excel gl. Loved that car!

 

2007 Chrysler 300C 5.7L
2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk and I still have.
