    Hello all! New Tundra owner. My parents have have owned one since 08 sand I've had my share of 4runners (one of which I still miss - 08' v8). This however is my first full size Toyota pickup and I'm looking forward to "no issues" after having owned a 11' eco boost f150 and most recently traded 16' Ram 1500 - both had their issues. Was considering a Raptor but decided to save money and mod a Tundra to my liking. I'm looking forward to making it my own and maybe a little more fun to drive in the process. I'll do my best at avoid redundant questions but I have a bunch regarding best suspension package to clear some 34 to 35's" yet still maintain some modest truck handling duties. Fox 3" factory or maybe Icon or King with either 18" 305 Methods or Icon Rebound 17" top my list. I already upgraded the audio with a complete Kenwood/JL audio system and have a set of Rock Sliders on order from P&P. I'm not planning to run this thing wide open in the PA woods so I'm mostly looking for improved looks (bigger tires tucked under the truck), light duty off road confidence (fire roads/pipelines/backwoods adventure), and most importantly great on road manners 95% of its life (sporty yet absorbing highway ride) plus ability to use the bed of my truck as intended. Maybe not all possible but I think doable if planned out correctly.... look forward to learning from the best.
