    So this is from a guy who swore he would ride a bike before every buying a foreign made vehicle. My Ram at 150K miles was hurting. Looked at newer Rams, don't want your E-torque. Looked at Ford, don't want your twin turbo. Looked at GM, well no I didnt. Where did I find an Old School type truck? Toyota! I guess you can teach an older dog a new trick or two.

    I couldnt be happier with this truck, and I thank this forum for helping me make my decision.

    Bought this Tundra 5 weeks ago. 2021 with 34K on the clock. Have just begun, but so far have added 5% window tint, Bilstein 5100 front only (top setting), and now just got my Ray10s and Cooper AT3 XLTs on (275/70R18)

    I'm thrilled! So much nicer than stock wheel set up. I'm posting a "pic of my poke", might help others looking at this tire/wheel package. Rim is +25 offset, minimal poke, just how I wanted it.

    Lots more to come...but I guess that goes without saying in this crowd!

    No issues that I can speak of first hand, I simply don't want the complexity of it. And to think E-torque only kicks in for the first HALF wheel revolution. I do know of many posts on forums that when there is a problem with the E-torque generator, people are waiting months for parts. But that can be said about every brand for various parts.

    IMO, over complex for minimal to zero gain. And I'm also not into having a big battery pack on the back wall of my cab,

    MGM, it's the best color, good looking truck, OEM LED headlights are worth it, just installed mine Sunday with the adapter harness from ihacker. Changes the look of the truck, as everyone else has stated on this forum, Ihackers adapter wiring harness IS the best and you won't regret changing your headlights

    Tundras are made in San Antonio TX, so you're still good

    Oh trust me, I know, I'm a researchaholic! My Tundra is made of 75 percent domestic product. It employs American people and feeds hard working American families. It also supports smaller business. I've researched the Tundra to death and I'm at peace with my decision.

    Toyota picked up, where American manufacturers dropped the ball entirely and failed.

    Tundra is by far and away more American than any of the big 3. It saddens me, But it's the reality of today.

    And honestly, as a guy who knows Ford and RAM well, Toyota build is a QUALITY build. I could go on an on.. but I'll spare you!

    Did you pick those Rays off Craigslist? There was a set posted in NJ for a while.

    Nm...the set is in Reading PA. $1200 never mounted.

    Just stumbled on a bronze set in NJ with basically new Falken Wildpeaks for $2500
