    Hi all,

    I was born and raised in California's Central Valley where I am currently a Pastor.

    I waited longer than I had hoped to buy my first Tundra because of a mid life career change that forced our family to adjust to a considerably reduced salary. Churches don't pay as well as oil companies apparently!

    I have owned a 2WD TRD OR Taco for the past 18 years. I still own the Taco because it makes a great first truck for my son and because my bride wouldn't let me sell it (the only thing she has sentimental feelings toward).

    I love my new Tundra, it was definitely worth the wait.

    Looking forward to interacting with and learning from you all.

    - Chris
