    Put on some vinyl decals. Old friend from Tacoma forums. You can buy the decals from him on eBay. His name is mtnrider65 on eBay. Super easy to install and I like them. They make the "Tundra" name pop.

    Did you have to leave the reflectors off the dome and map lights to allow led lights to fit?

    No, I reinstalled them. You just put them on before you put on the bulb and then shove the bulb on over the top. They'll fit.

    I just used a scotch bright pad. I did the same thing on my Tacoma and it held up really well. Might be worth using self-etching primer, but I didn't have any issues, and thanks!

    First road trip with the Tundra. Drove 800 miles between Utah and California to visit fam. Gotta say, gas mileage sucked. :) I think we averaged maybe 12 MPG. Not stellar by any means, but the truck made it with no issue. Pic of her in Yermo, CA.

    Are you still sticking with your story about not having a money tree?

    Just give me a half dead twig, and i'll nurse it back to life.

    I haven't been documenting this one near as good as the Tundra. It's been fun though but everything has been bolt one which takes away some of the fun.

    It's a fun car, for sure. Going from my Tesla to this has been a night and day experience. There is no other word to describe this car except "pissed off."

    If only... ;)

    I watch a lot of YouTube videos on car reviews and recently saw a few with the M4. My wife was ear hustling, then that progressed to over the shoulder watching. Needless to say, this car just passed the RC F on her short list.

    It really is a good car and a lot of fun to drive. That said, she doesn't like to go slow. Bucks sometimes when starting in first and the seats are very "Ricaro" but that all comes with the territory when you buy a track-day car.

    Thst’s what I figured. I told her the RC F or a S5 would be more civilized for day to day. Thanks for the actual 1st hand feedback

    I would agree with that. Even the C63S is a little more "friendly" than the M4 - that said, it's not as much of a "drivers" car. I actually liked both, but if given the choice, I'd probably choose the Bimmer again.
