    2017 tundra limited doublecab
    Greetings from the black fly state. Just joined the forum. Currently, I just bought a new 17 double cab. this is my second tundra, first was an 04 that I kept until i traded it for the current model. So far, I'm still missing the first truck. Some disappointments in the new truck include the electronic LSD and the POS stereo. Love the 5.7 liter power though. Big increase over my last tundra and a much better steering ratio. Every turn in the old truck became a study in geometry (how many pivots does it take to make a u-turn). the three upgrades I will be doing first, an Auburn LSD, stereo, and some type of rear suspension upgrade (not sure which will work best for towing and moderate offroading during hunting season,.
