    Hello Everyone! Excited to finally be a part of this site. After months of diligent searching online, and a few dodged bullets of deciding not to have rust buckets shipped to me from 9 hours away, I finally found the truck I was searching for! I had been checking the internet multiple times a day, everyday for the right truck.

    Low and behold, I found this truck LOCALLY (only 30 minutes away) at a Toyota dealership. It's a one owner truck that had been traded in for a new model Tundra the day before I found it. The dealership hadn't even had time to upload photos of the truck - it was still the stock photo. I immediately called them and heading down the road to take a test drive. I struck gold! One-owner, 4.7L SR5 TRD Off-road package with 24,800 original miles. Clean as a whistle.

    Please forgive all of the undercarriage photos I took here. I was just amazed to see the lack of rust and how clean it was underneath! There's also the traditional photo of me standing in front of the truck at the dealership after the big purchase that my wife made me take. It's the best shot of the truck that I have when it was all clean and detailed. I just picked this thing up on Thursday 12/24 and the snow hit hard here in Central OH that evening!!

    Certainly have a lot of wrenching to do to get this thing looking the way I want to, but plenty of time for that. I really want to add some Bilsteins to level this thing up but hate to start replacing parts already with the mileage being so low. I want to get my money's worth out of the factory stuff!

    When the snow goes away - I plan on taking that fiberglass bed cover off and adding some spray-in Line-X bedliner. I'd say the second step after that would be adding a new head unit/backup cam. Then once these tires run down a little more I think I'll find the best option for leveling the truck (gonna need some help from you guys here...I want to do it right and not sacrifice ride quality and put as little stress on the truck as possible), then add some 275/70/18 Michelin Defender LTX/MS's. Not in any rush for new rims yet.

    Other than that - the WeatherTech front/back mats are already on the way! Looking forward to learning, sharing and talking with you all on here!
