    Hello! Just introducing myself to the forum since I'm a Tundra owner now as of a few weeks ago. Never thought I wanted a full size truck but I'm all in now. I purchased a 2018 Inferno Crewmax 4x4 Limited with 136,000 miles. Lots of changes in store for it so maybe I finally do a build thread on a truck but probably not lol. Getting rid of the chrome is at the top of my list.

    Some of my past trucks have had names, my 2000 4Runner was Grape Ape and my 2022 Tacoma was the Grinch and my new to me Tundra is Hong Kong Phooey.

    I am already super appreciative of all the helpful information on the forum here. Thanks!

    Yeah, and the operator chick was Rosemarie; the cop was Sarge; his 'janitor' name was Penrod :laugh:

    I believe his transforming car thing was called the phooeymobile...

    Oh shit, wait... we can't forget his important reference guide, "The Hong Kong Book of Kung Fu"!!!!

    Well hey, you've got my vote for 'Best New Thread of the Weekend' and thanks for giving me a bit of a chuckle this evening
