    Hello,

    Owner of a 2008 Double Cab SR5 Tundra. Engine is 5.7. Transmission is a 6spd. A/T. 4WD for that snowy climate. I inherited this pickup after my Dad past away in 2016. I was reluctant as the death was unexpected and I didn't have room for another vehicle. However, this was not any vehicle. My Dad had saved up working at the mill for this truck. Ended up buying almost all of the dealer options for this truck and was very proud of it. I had tremendous respect for my Dad which made his sudden passing hard to handle. Best decision I made was to keep it regardless of the situation at the time. Been a very reliable vehicle and was my sole vehicle for a year and half when a person of unscrupulous character ran into my 2016 Jeep Cherokee (4 years old at the time) while trying to steal a different vehicle in the bowling alley parking lot. Never thought someone could actually run into a parked car.....but I was proven wrong in 2020. My truck currently has 74,000 miles on it. Plans are to keep passing down the truck through the family. After all, everyone needs a truck at some point in their life. Picture below taken just a few days ago, leaves are turning and it is becoming that time of year again!
