Hello. I had to say goodbye to my Taco because I bought a camper and needed something that could pull a heavier load. So here it is; a 2017 SR5. I've had it for a little while, but just now getting around to getting on this forum. First order of business was to get the windows tinted and Toyota tow mirrors installed. I love those mirrors by the way. No blind spots at all towing or not. I would recommend these mirrors for that reason even if you don't plan on towing. I was a member on the Tacoma forum and so I had to check the Tundra forum out. I love looking at all the builds and mods you guys do. I've already seen some things that have gone on the "Things to do list". I plan on making several mods to it, but next up are wheels, tires and leveling. Wheels and tires were put on yesterday. The Bilstein 5100's will be here Tuesday. Pics will follow as soon as I get it all installed.

Thanks! I looked at the pic of your truck with the pro grille. It looks great! I ordered one when I bought the truck, they are on back order. Checked again today and still no ETA on it.

Thanks, the grill is one of my favorite parts of the truck. It will be worth the wait, it really transforms the look of the truck. I changed my front bumper caps at the same time and my neighbors couldn't believe it was the same truck, they all thought I traded. I like chrome on some trucks but not a big fan on the Tundra, unless it's white or silver sky.
