    2022 Tundra 1794
    I had a 2012 Beautiful Barcelona Red CrewCab Tundra which I bought new and sold 5 weeks ago after 10 years and 135,000 on the clock. I had deposits at 3 dealers here in NOLA for a 2022 Tundra1794 since April 2022. I was particular about colors and options that I wanted so one by one nothing came my way and my deposits were returned. Five weeks ago I found what I was looking for in Ft. Lauderdale, FLA. The 1794 was in Jacksonville port and was hitting the dealer in a few days so I thought. I sold my 2012 for a great price to the first person that came out on a Friday because my 1794 was going to be at the dealer the following Wednesday and I was going to fly there and drive home. My 1794 failed the port inspection so no new Tundra and no 2012. The dealer said that since the truck was sold that the factory would make the exact truck in 2 weeks and have it in FLA in another 2 weeks and surprisingly that happened. We flew Saturday10/22 and drove back to NOLA in 2 days so I could do the break in period for the 850 mile journey.

    Really enjoying the drive and very impressed with the gas milage and I did drive in various speeds and rpm and still a whole lot better that my 2012. Cones are a joke with the neighbors; they all know what I was going through.

    4x2? I saw one over here in blueprint in Denton with the white 1794 interior not too long ago for MSRP.

    4x2 Yes. I have the Saddle because the Ivory interior gets too dirty. That was my problem, all the 1794 were either 4x4 or Ivory interior.

    Welcome and greetings from Minnesota. Nice truck, keep using the traffic cones, they may help prevent door dings from inconsiderate people who don’t understand car guys!
