    Thanks for the add....

    Wear the Fox Hat!! Yeah Puyallup... just south east of Tacoma and south of Seattle. I have a 2017 Inferno orange Tacoma I am trading for my Tundra.. I was upside down by $5k in the Tacoma about a year ago, and now the dealer is giving me $10k over what I owe... Thank you chip shortage! I sure can't wait to get my a$$ into the drivers seat of this truck when it gets here. It could be said that I might be bugging the crap out of the sales guy (who's actually a friend after 4 vehicles).

    I went with the Tundra because I'm tired of listening to my little 6 cyl engine whine when pulling my travel trailer up a moderated grade. Too many little squirrels arguing at once when it drops down several gears. And they seem to be sewing something in there. I hear the sewing machines tapping away. But service says there's nothing wrong with it.

    This is my second blue truck, and the first was the original Blue Mule (Ford Powerstroke). We will give this one the same name as long as she holds up her end of the deal.

    -Tim

    Thanks so much... I really should have gone with the Tundra to start with.. I still don't have the truck yet though... it is in route. I lost it's twin last week to a nice family that got a deposit down before I did. I hope to see him here on the forum as well. My friend in the sales departments management didn't think there would be an issue and it would be mine when it got here... "we'll do the paperwork then," he said... I heard this truck wasn't even off-loaded when the young man and his family saw it. He batted the cash down to finance before the Tundra wheels hit the pavement. I think I was just as excited to see them get into it as they were (yes, I was there). Really no disappointment since young lad let me paw all over (our) new truck.

    Well, the best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry. I will be changing the truck name now... I went down and sat in a 2021 magnetic grey Limited which has heated leather seats, more technology (to break later), a moon roof, locking tailgate, off road package.. much much more... to make a long story short, it followed me home and Blue Mule is homeless for the most part until it gets here. I'm sure someone will see it being off loaded from the truck and have to snag it.

    So what's in a name? I think I like MagnoMule.. I may have to change it to that or MagnetoMule... We'll see what the mods will allow...

    Ok guys... where to start? I really am not much of a chrome fan... I would like the chrome to match the paint. so, the bumper tips and grill surround? Have them color matched to the paint? All the emblems durped or overlays? Overlays cost more and derp plasti-dip is a little more work. I'm having the polymer film put on the front and think I need to make that decision prior to them doing the work.

    More photos as I get settled into this truck

    Well, congratulations again. Truck looks great and there are tons of information on chrome delete and overlays on this forum.
