    Smooth as can be! And got there quickly.

    I took the truck on a 200 mile hike the other day with the family and was able to keep my average at 17.2. Has anyone done better on the '18?

    NO. I did not take this photo while the Fam was in the truck.

    The Enugu be sounded and felt like she wanted more, but the mother d chip kicked back at 110. I swear my '15 4x2 sr5 hit 115 before the regulator came into play.

    awesome... so you know that what you did would endanger their lives because you called out that they weren't in the truck... what about everyone else's families?

    Nice! 110 and taking a picture. What could go wrong? Were you talking to mom via speaker at the same time?

    Talking to mom and using his other hand to drink his coffee. You always drive with your knee over 80.

    You should probably just delete that picture before one of the mods read it. Might want to read the rules of the forum. ;)

    My belief is that if you bought a Tundra to go fast - you're doing it wrong.

    Are the 2018 gauges always backlit? Readability of gauges in low light or with sunglasses on is my biggest complaint

    I kinda like the current and average MPGs on at same time. I noticed that the fuel gauge still has the same variations in distance between the marks. I just noticed this morning that the distances vary between full, 3/4, 1/2, 1/4 and empty. Must be something to compensate for the way the sender works. I don't recall every seeing this but every vehicle I have owned went further on first and last 1/4s.

    Blahhhh hahahahhaahaaahhaaaaa LSFHISOEAY (laughing so fucking hard, I spit on everything and you)

    It's very kind that everyone here had something encouraging to say or providing fair warning, even they may have come across aggressive. Check out this next part.

    RACE TRACK! all done inside the walls of a closed circuit. So no rules or laws were broken or people in danger of reckless driving.

    Or maybe I was n the highway with the windows down, jamming to FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH, with my finger in the air.

    Which do you believe? LoL

    well I believe...

    1) you need to work on some more catchier acronyms. I don't think that'll go mainstream.
    2) Idiots would take a tundra to a racetrack - may as well take a Prius to a tractor pull
    3) Bigger Idiots would do 110 on the highway in a 1/2 ton.

    So in conclusion...

    You're not a marketing major, you've got mediocre taste in music and i'll let you draw the last conclusion all on your own if you can work it out.
