    Greetings my fellow Tundraians,

    I purchased my first Tundra a couple weeks ago. It's a 2015 Limited 5.7L 4x4 Sunset Bronze Mica with 55k miles and in excellent condition. I picked it up for $30K. I wasn't keen on the color; however, for the price I figured I could accept it. I was going to purchase a 2018 when I found this truck, but for the price I couldn't pass it up. The money I saved will go to a slide-in camper. It's a big difference coming from a 2.5i Outback! LOVE the power of the truck!

    Filled up the tank for the first time yesterday, and $85 fill ups will definitely take some time getting used to! Sort of glad I don't have the 38 gallon tank!

    I'll be adding Line-X bed liner soon, but no other aftermarket planned. Although, that'll probably change as I go through this forum.

    Looking forward to learning more about the Tundra through this site.

    Mike

    I suggest you leave this forum and never return if you value your wallet and your time.... they forced me to spend almost 800 on skid plates today alone....

    Any way, welcome!!!!:anonymous:
