    What’s up everybody?!

    Been lurking around. Ended up pulling the trigger after a few months of searching. Decided on a 2008 silver sr5 with 205,000 miles and paid $9,700. Came with new tires and wheels and the guy I bought it from also had the radiator, water pump, carrier bearing done. I think I got a decent deal. Let me know what you guys think. Glad to be here. All feedback appreciated. IMG_2673.jpgIMG_2674.jpgIMG_2676.jpgIMG_2677.jpg

    I grew up in the valley. Moved away for quite some years. Back in the valley again. Texas is an awesome state. Been out there multiple times for work. San Antonio, Dallas, and Austin have been my favorite cities out there. Where are you living these days?

    Hey appreciate the kind words. Took me a while of lurking and test driving. Hoping the truck lives a long healthy life. Any recommendations on services I should take care of? Thinking brake fluid, oil change, possibly another trans exchange soon even though the seller did one right before sale. Also going to take care of brakes.

    Moved to the Austin area almost three years ago for work. Lived on the west side of Portland for about 16 years but also had prior stints in Eugene for school (Go Ducks!) and some time in the Albany area.

    Awesome man. They have great Mexican food out there. Had Torchy’s on my last business trip. It’s a great city though. You got in at a good time. Seems like it’s really blowing up now.
