    New member relaying greetings...
    Just an short truck story on how I got into my current Tundra. Last year I purchased a used 2021 TRD PRO in MGM color for $42k as I did not want to get a later model with that V6 Toyota has had engine issues with so I stuck with the more reliable 5.7 V8, plus I did not like the styling of the new Tundras. I've had three Tundras...2008, 2014 and now this 2021. I traded in that 2008 Tundra for a 2012 Ford Raptor that i had for about 9 years, then I sold it in 2021, about a year before I purchased the used 2014 Tundra SR5. Loved the Raptor but it had to go due to needing funds to use on a house we purchased and renovated during the Covid years. Couldn't keep a contractor so had to contract out myself. Also, with the prices of trucks going thru the roof, I can't seeing paying $70k plus for any new truck. Will only buy used from now on. Anyways...here is my truck without snow and with snow...yes 7" to 8" of snow in S. Louisiana...a very rare event.

    I'm with you. I had a 2017 with some issues and upgraded to a 2020 5.7 with 35,000 miles on it instead of going to the V6. I'm driving this thing till the wheels fall off.
