    I am looking to buy my first Tundra! I have had a Tacoma for 25 years and looking to go full size.

    The tundra style that i like is the SR5 extended cab 6.6 ft bed. Can anyone tell me what years of the tundra had this style? I have a picture of one that is my dream truck. This a a 2015 SR5 model and is what i am looking for.

    Does anyone know if this truck is all stock? and how big of a tire can i go before needing a lift? Also what color does toyota call this.

    Thanks for the info.

    That truck has a level kit up front, looks to be 2.5 to 3 inch spacer lift..

    Do a search on sites like cargurus, carmax, etc to find the models you are looking for. Personally, I would look for 2015 to 2018 trucks. 2019 to 2021 does not have trans cooler. Expect to pay top dollar, used car prices are high.

    you can fit 35s on a stock truck with the right wheels and trimming, 285/70-18 will fit a stock truck with stock wheels, but very limited tires in that size.. 275/70-18s fit well, look beefy and perform well on a stock tundra, they are 33s.

    Color is MGM.

    Look over the forums here, also easy to search in upper right for info you want. Each of the forums have stickies at the top which will be valuable information.

    What frichco228 said. And I’m not sure about the DC models but CM, if you want bench seat and column shift you can find it in SR5 trim but only w the 26 gal fuel tank. SR5 upgrade package gets the 38 gal tank and console shifter in ‘16 and up model years I believe.

    It's good
    That looks stock to me. I don't recall the third raptor step though. Maybe it has a mild leveling lift.
