    Not sure how/ why I didn't sign up here earlier, but I purchased my 17 Tundra in April. It's my 2nd Tundra, had an 11 Crewmax in the past, along with a couple of deleted 6.7 2500 Rams. We sold our camper this spring so I didn't need a diesel anymore.p, and decided it was time to be back in a Tundra.
    2017 Crewmax MGM SR5 4x4 TRD off road.
    Mods so far: TRD pro grill & shift knob, Husky liner x-acts, 8" BAmuffler, 20% tint, Line-x, & Lund genesis tonneau. On order: counsel vault from Sparks (just missed group buy), esp under seat storage unit, & getting bumper chrome end caps vinyl wrapped this week w/ oracle 970ra-937 grey metallic. Also looking to get Nitto Ridge Grapplers in 275/70/18's soon.
