DFW Tundras

sadly it feels like the whole thing is barely on there. It won’t fit into the channel around the outside

 

Slightly off topic.... What are some must goto/see/do things in DFW?

 

The Cowgirl Museum and the Texas Cowboy Museum and Hall of Fame in Ft Worth, and the Perot Museum in Dallas.

 

Is the Perot up and running again? I know there was talks of bankruptcy during the height of covid. It's a really cool place especially if you've got kids.

Art museum in Dallas by the MHHB is another I'd add to the list (if you're into that kind of thing)

 

Thank you Sir!

 

Good to know, thank you!

 

Anyone in the DFW area interested in a new black front valence? I ordered it, put it on my truck, and hated it lol so I went back to the stock gray one. Only damage it has is small marks where the mounting screws touch the plastic. Nothing cosmetic. It's fresh out of the box and was on my truck for 5 minutes.


Also selling a chrome hood bulge and grille off of 2014 1794 edition both in good condition


*See pictures of front valence and complete grille assembly*


Please send me a PM if interested.

 

Howdy guys and gals. Didnt know this thread existed! This is awesome. From Dallas myself. However I live a bit outside of Dallas. Glad to find a familiar thread.

 

Sub'd! Welp our employer is blessing us with a move from central IL to DFW area. Appreciate this thread on things to do and DFW area members. I have all sorts of random questions forming in my head..:
- Is "howdy" really the proper greeting? I say that round here half the time anyway even though no one else does lol.
- With lifted trucks assumingly more prevalent there are Texas parking garages taller and residential garages taller there in general...Migo checks in at like 7'2". Sweet I'm seeing no "lifted truck laws" there.
- Maybe I'm going to see a Tundra like every like every 20th truck there instead of like every 100th here...cool!
- When I feel up the 38 gal tank there can I do it on one credit card transaction there!
- Wonder if Yota allows factory tours in San Antonio
- Guessing there's no reason to bring the snowblower and shovels...should be a great time to sale it here in middle of summer
- Would my kids be scarred for life if we lived in the camper for several mos cause your housing market is on fire!! ouch!! ouch!! freakin' ouch!!
- On a more sincere note if any of you have perspectives to share on Keller, Colleyville, Southlake, Flower Mound or Coppell I'd welcome and greatly appreciate exchanging some PM's on it. Schools, oversized 3-4 garage space, backyard, some privacy, bit of rural feel but community feel, conservative values (should be easy in TX right) are some of our bigger drivers.

 

Hey bro, welcome to Texas soon. I see you're looking in norther parts of Dallas, depending on where your employer will be moving of course, I'd prolly look into Waxahachie, Midlothian, Mansfield, Redoak. Only because in those areas you listed above they are pretty expensive and quite densely populated. But idk what your financial situation is either, but again welcome to Texas. You'll fit right in dude.

 

Thank you sir! Will check out those areas as well! Need to be easy commute to DFW airport and Las Colinas. Agree areas I mentioned are total sticker shock. And to your point outside looking in Keller seems maybe too populous/dense for us...we're coming from a very nice village of 17k residents here in IL.

 

This might also be of interest.

Does anyone in DFW have experience installing the Hewitt-Tech block-off plates and could potentially give me a hand with it? I got the passenger side in, but for the life of me could not get the driver's side installed. Next step is to try and get it up on some jack stands and try a trick using the power steering that Paul from Hewitt-Tech suggested. I don't have jack stands or similar equipment at home, so checking to see if anyone local might be willing to have me come to your place and get a bit of help in exchange for a six-pack of your choosing? Much obliged!

 

Sorry Frieselu, I have no experience with Hewlett-Tech. Is that for the Air Injection Pump?

 

Yes it is. They offer a bypass kit to clear the codes and get the truck out of limp mode related to the AIP. The solution is mostly electronic, but also depends on installing some physical exhaust blocking plates in a couple places.

 

Oh, ok. Wish I could help, but have no experience with that. Have you checked for any install videos on youtube?

 

Yes, I've done as much as I can without jack stands or a lift to try some of the more advanced tips that require the wheels to be off. Hoping someone local with some equipment might be able to help.

 

New to the site; in Rowlett

 

Welcome KS1371!

 

Were you able to get that air injection pump bypass kit on? Reason I ask is because it looks like my wife’s used ‘07 Lexus GX470 is throwing an air injection pump code after all the dash lights came on. Luckily, it never went into limp mode, at least not yet.

 

Welcome!

 

Looking for places around the area to hit some trails - does anyone have some spots?

 

You guys ever plan a trip out as group to any of these locations?

 

That would be a blast to group and head up there!
