    I have already found the forum useful while truck shopping so I figured now that I picked up a Tundra of my own it was time to join.

    As the title says I have had a Tacoma for 15 years. It is a 2001 double cab that I got used when I finished high school and 270k miles later (230 by me) it is still going strong. With a new baby I needed something safer and bigger so there was really only one option.

    So now I am the owner of a 2010 Tundra with 150k. I have the front bench which brings me back to my first truck, a 1987 f150. Over the years the tacoma got dumber and dumber as I built it out. The hope with the tundra is to create a bit more of a refined overland build. So as soon as I can the KO2 wrapped 20s will get replaced with something more appropriate.

    Look forward to learning from the community and sharing my truck and adventures.

    Well the front bumper came off and was never replaced, the back bumper was replaced with a purple tube bumper. The hood latch broke and I hacked on some hood pins. Just that sort of silliness.

    It never lost its practicality, and probably gained some with a electric panel powered off an auxiliary battery so you could power things at camp without running down the start battery.

    It has become quite unique and can't be missed on the road.
