    Hello all,

    Just picked up my 2018 Tundra, double cab, TRD Off Road in Cement today. I absolutely love it. It's hard to imagine a more perfect truck. My previous truck was a 2016 Tacoma TRD Sport. Let's just say that my 2 years in the Taco weren't happy years. I won't get into it, but those of you familiar with Gen 3 Tacomas already know the story. But I'm happy now, that much I can tell you. I had forgotten how awesome a truck could be!!

    Well I'd post a picture but Photobucket has apparently become a strange website over the years and isn't letting me. I'll have to find a different image hosting site. It's in my avatar at the very least.
