    20181020_173957.jpg 20181020_174755.jpg 20181022_125921.jpg I've had a coupe my whole life. Started with a 90 Miata (stick shift of course). Fun car to drive. Learned how to drive manual in it. Had that up until after high school. Got an 06 Scion tC (manual trans). Modded that little car out. Sold it and got a 2016 tC RS 10.0 (manual trans. once again). Did very little to that car. Traded it in on Oct. 20 and finally have a 2018 crewmax tundra. I told myself if I were to get a toyota truck, I'd go all out... I did in a sense.

    New to the tundra world. New to these forums. Feels good to be overlooking everyone on the streets. I have a few things I'd like to get done to it but that'll be in the near future. I just wanna get used to having such a big truck for now. First mod I HAVE to do is add some subwoofers.

    A lot of great information on here. Looks like all the questions I had were posted. And I won't be doing any LED changes to the interior lights any time soon. LOL!

    Also, I'm wondering why they call super white the "fastest color" toyota has made...o_Oo_O:confused:

    Welcome from NC and congrats on purchasing the Super Fastest Super White color! It’s a known fact, that has been well documented by several matter experts to form this conclusion.

    Thank you. All of you. I feel so welcomed. See... Thats where scion forums are different. They'll rip on you for choosing a certain color. Lol.

    Super white does feel like it would be faster than all the other colors. :thumbsup::rofl:;)
