    I drove 5 hours with my father to buy my 2011 Rock Warrior, while there my father decided that he liked it so much, he traded in his 4 Runner right there on the spot for another 2011 Platinum Addition! We drove back home in two really nice trucks & havent stopped smiling since! Besides being a unforgettable experience with my pops, I ended up with an awsome truck! We both did!
    Now im slowly adding mods. Hope to put a lift in it with 35s next.

    That's a cool experience that you and your father shared. Congrats on two nice pick ups! Now you need to post up some father/son Tundra pics.

    Lol, read my mind .... You posted while I was typing.

    Thanks all! We own a camp in the Adirondacks & the road to get to it is like driving up a creekbed so im excited to have a truck i can count on. The road has chewed up a few trucks over the years!

    Might want to look into some skid plates. The OEM ones aren't too reliable.

    So far he had a spray in bedliner installed, a 100 XR painted leer cap & this week we are putting a stainless steal Lund bull bar with the LED light built into it. I will repost pics of it after we are done.

    Not sure where your dad lives but the dealership, Pioneertrucks.com, we bought ours has a nice 2015 TRD with only 12k miles on it for 35k. Best dealership i ever went to, they take trades. Its in Western NY south of Rochester.
