    New member here to the forums from WV. I went from a 2016 Tacoma to a 2020 Tundra. Have done lots of comfort upgrades already.

    Glad to be a part of the Tundra community!

    I tend to drive my vehicles till the end. 268,000 miles on my 2002. The Taco could go forever, but I needed something with more power and capacity.

    Not much on the inside yet. Ceramic window tint. Carhartt seat covers. TRD shifter. MESO black out kit. Wireless Carplay adapter. Got the vent rings two but am putting that off for a warm sunny day.

    Outside is a different story. TRD Pro grille. TRD skid. KO2 275/65R18. Anti theft D rings with demon brackets upfront. Receiver hitch D ring in the back. VLED upgrade to all exterior lights. Morimoto license plate lights. Diamondback bed cover. Rigid fog lights. Color matching mirror caps.

    Just need to find black wheels I like.

    Forgot to mention that for me to purchase the truck, dealer had to install color matching grille surround and front bumper caps for me to buy so there would be no chrome.
