    Hello people. Just bought myself a 21 Tundra SR5 TRDOR back in June and figured I would jump on here for some ideas and such. I come from owning 2 4runners before this. A 14 SR5 and a 18 TRD off-road. I loved the runners but needed more space to tow-haul stuff and tundra is the perfect fit. It helps that I work for Toyota as well. Plans are pretty mild for the truck such as 3/2 lift, tires and spacers once the stock tires wear out. For now all I have done is tints to match the back, window visors, pro grille insert and I cut the muffler out and put a high flow in and it sounds perfect. Chrome delete is in the paint shop at the moment hopefully it’s done and on by end of next week. I will miss the Runner for sure but I am loving the tundra so far!! Here’s a couple pics

    I did the same! My 4Runner is an 06, OME suspension, and I kept it, son is driving it now. Moved into a 16 Tundra for better towing ability.

    I traded my 4Runner in on my Tundra as well. I do miss that 4R, but the Tundra fits my family’s needs much better. Welcome!
