    A buddy owns and loves a 2nd gen and his enthusiasm rubbed off on me. Was a ford guy as both grandfathers retired from Ford- One is still alive at 98yrs and still receives legendary benefits allowing for the family plan. But after doing the research, I was drawn to the Tundra- never thought they were more American made. Anyway, bought a 2016 TRD SR5 4x4, 5.7L Crew Max with 11K miles in Oct 2020. Came with a cap and was clean, clean, clean. Hit a deer in January and damaged front passenger bumper cap, fog light, fender extender, bumper cover, and grille. Thought I could save money by ordering parts and fix it myself. I didn't account for unseen damage and the complexities. That's how I found this forum.
