    Narian ( nary a one) YET !
    "Huzzah" good neighbors....I just tonight signed up to part of this Tundra loving crowd, because I'm fairly new to the Tundra community and as a newbie I need answers to some questions,
    (my girlfriend and I got our superbly well-kept 2013 Tundra CrewCab in Nov of 2017 ) and want a way to give back to the group when I can in about 16 yrs.

    A few things that stood out in the beginning was the room in this Crew Cab...its got more square footage than my 1st house, the cockpit reminds me of the business end of a 747-400
    ( SONAR ? ) and the LAX telephone book that Toyota calls a manual should come with a 3-wk crash course at the community college.

    Also, I've hired a rent-a-cop to ride in the right seat and write me tickets whenever my right leg cramps and I mistakenly jam the throttle ( Officer, really, I have leg cramps ) and set up the NAV system to auto-stop at most petrol stations.

    Heavy, unnecessary offroad stuff.
    Welcome from SoCal. Leg cramps and gas stations: funny how that voluminous manual mentions neither.

    welcome from La, being new to the Tundra community is a pleasure. Off subject the "rent a cop" can just give up with a few activations from your dash. The well known "beast mode". Turn the "tow haul button on, press and hold the auto LSD till the dash lights up, turning off the LSD" all of this while stopped leave gas pump. Drive it like you stole it and return to gas pump to fill up again in a short while. You can see the fuel gage drop. Again welcome to the world of one of the most amazing trucks out here.
