    Just saying hello.
    I'm a current Toyota Camry owner ; signed up for the forum as I am considering a Toyota pickup as an eventual replacement.

    FWIW- the dealers in my area have already received a visit from me.
    I don't expect to post much unless I have questions.

    Welcome from Nebraska, I’ve owned a couple Camrys and now our personal car is a 2013 Avalon. They’re great cars! You’ll be impressed with everything except fuel economy on your new Tundra.

    I expect a large pickup with a V8 to burn fuel; my interest in buying another Toyota is the result of being much happier with my Toyota than with any of the "American" brands I have owned.
    Granted, I owned "American" primarily because Japanese cars didn't have enough leg room for me until recently due to my 1.9 meter height.
    In theory any pickup would solve the legroom problem, but I'm done with the poor quality of American designs.
    My only concern will be the future cost of fuel over the next few years.
