Florida Tundra Owners

Thanks haha! Hmmm, didn’t know that lol. It came with those rims/wheels! That’s why I got almost everything I wanted, just want to change out the chrome on the front with black lol!

It’s my parents boat haha. So, not mine, but I get to enjoy it lol! Might be mine one day?! Who knows lol.

 

Yes, those wheels are very rare to see. You got lucky with them haha. Yes I agree...dechrome all the way. I even blacked out my interior. Too much silver inside these trucks lol. You never know...you might get that boat one day.

 

I love St Pete!! I’ve lived here all my life! We call it the biggest small town ahah! Don’t really want to ever live anywhere else. But, the only thing I can say I don’t like about it is it’s gotten SO expensive!

The older I get though, the more I like the idea of living like right outside Tampa…kinda near lower Hillsborough wilderness preserve, because it’s right near big cities so you have all you need, but, you can also have a little land out there…maybe a cow or something, who knows lol?!

 

Well sweet haha yayy! Yah…agreed lol. I just like everything all black!! I have camo seat covers haha, but, all black would be my second option for sure lol.

And yes, figures crossed haha! I have to start practicing backing up a trailer lol…!

 

Lol...you are a character!

 

Thank you..

Momma had me drive the "coastal route" till the 275 split when we left...Clearwater is way too busy but Dunedin and Indians Rock beach are not so bad....

We LOVE the water but dam hurricanes are chasing us out of full timing in FT. Myers

 

Haha, I can’t argue that lol! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

You’re welcome!

Agreed, Clearwater is too busy! Yah, Dunedin and Indian Rocks Beach aren’t bad lol, a little busy also though. But, it’s beautiful, so, I get it haha!
Sorry to hear you’ve been chased out by the hurricane!

 

We are OK and that is what counts...

This place; TW ,is a great big family of friendly folks..... there are meets & greets But the Club thing you may have to kick-start...

We will be staying in Florida but probably in a more Central location , then just "bop around" for Con's Art events..

Enjoy your time here...

 

Hello all,

There's a Tundra I'm considering purchasing in Bradenton from an independent shop that seems very reputable. They have a mechanic shop on site that has inspected the truck, and actually serviced the vehicle, which is a good sign. They allow third-party PPIs on-site, but don't allow the vehicle to be driven to a third party site for a PPI (eg a dealership or different shop). Wondering if anyone on here who's very familiar with Tundras would help with a PPI on-site. Happy to compensate you for your time

TIA!

 

Yes, that you’re ok is def number one! Yes, I like the vibe here! I’d love to go to some meet an greets…maybe one day start a club…who knows haha! Nothing wrong with bopping around if you can haha!

 

Hi, I haven't checked in in a while since around Ian... Things are coming back here in the Cape... Some of the older homes and neighborhoods took a horrendous beating. I decided to replace my roof back in January and had no roof damage... Just some vinyl fence and some landscape mess... Hope y'all are doing good. If you live in Florida get a metal roof...They cost 2x as much as shingles but are well worth it as mine survived a Cat4 and so did 3 others in my neighborhood. All of the traditional shingle roof got tore up.

 

Checking in from Ocala fl.

 

Ocala... that's way up there in the Mountains of Florida... well sorta..

Don't you mean "Slowcala", too many years here.

 

Did you notice any energy efficiency after switching to a metal roof?

 

Yes the attic is cooler, but the efficiancy savings has been eaten up by the rate increases. The metal is reflective and the underlayment is insulating.

It is a nice system

 

Must sound nice in the rain, nice and relaxing.

 

It's actually quieter than a shingle roof tho

 

Really, I figued it would be a little louder, Ive always wanted one, but HOA says otherwiise...

 

It's actually 24 ga steel and the way they fold it and make the locking seams makes it all very rigid. Then their is a layer of insulating underlayment that takes the place of the good ol tar paper which is has an adhesive that sticks to the plywood...there is no gap between the metal panels and the roof which would make the old tin roof acoustics. You can look it up it's called a 24ga standing seam metal roof system with no exposed fasteners. They are said to last 50-60 years and are very durable during hurricanes. Mine made it through 140 mph winds withut an issue. If you take into consideration that in FL insurance companies will tell you need to replace your shingle roof at 15 years of age or risk little or no payout for your loss or - your deductible, getting a roof that could withstand 140 MPH makes sense. Plus it knocks hundreds off of your Hurricane coverage premium. I think metal roofs should be mandated within 20 miles of the coast.

 

Now this a pure piece of beauty

Clean & simple lines PLUS that LOOK of a quiet Freaking workhorse...

 

Since Florida is at zero donations for the raffle we are hosting for a member here I figured the FL crew must not know.

From Winter Haven

 

Hello from North Tampa (Lutz, Land O Lakes, carrollwood) area…

1: I like to go to citrus WMA.
2: I like to drive over things.
3: I think Florida should break free from the chains of the group “South East US” tyrannical grips and become its own sub, which should encourage more participation and group events.
4: If there is mudding or trails closer than Citrus WMA lmk please so I can go explore
5: RC trucks, mini bikes, scooters, atv, almost anything with wheels makes me happy and I’m interested in
