    So, this is my first Tundra.It's a 2018 CrewMax Limited with the TRD package. I purchased last Saturday. I have been a loyal Toyota Customer since 1996 when I bought a new Tacoma (which I still have). I also own a 2003 Sequoia, neither one has ever giving me any trouble. With that said, I didn't even consider shopping around for another make. I love my Tundra, but I didn't realize Toyota has done very little to update the truck since 2007. While some things changed in 2014, nothing has changed in the drivetrain. So I'm curious if I should have waited to see if a revamp is coming in 2019-2020. Any thoughts or info on future changes would be appreciated.

    Welcome from NorCal. The next gen will be quite different according to an article I read. That, for me, means a couple years of working the bugs out.
