Hi everyone,

Joining from Wyoming with a 2012 mechanic special Tundra. I think it was probably the cheapest Tundra in the state when I bought it. LOL. I'm sure I'll be pestering everyone here with questions as it is the newest vehicle I've ever worked on.

Welcome from OKC! No worries, it's fairly new in your world, but still an old fashioned gasoline combustion engine. You will be fine.
