    Finally got my new Tundra TRD Pro! Wow, they really make you work for one of these! I drove to so many dealerships trying to buy one of these, only to find that they "just" sold it. Finally had enough and wrote a nasty e-mail to Toyota. To their credit, they apologized and promised to build one for me and send it to the dealer of my choice. And they actually followed through!!! Anyway, love this truck! I'll post some pics soon. Looking forward to swapping ideas, Q&A, tips, etc!

    ?? (I have only two question marks, haha)
    17 Pro comes in 3 colors, Cement, Barcelona Red, and Super White. I wanted to know what color OP got since his signature didn't specify nor did the original post.

    In the forum bylaws section 119a states that any new user must post a pic of their truck as proof that they arent trying to infiltrate our top secret operation we have going on here....get it together guy...or shall I say spy?

    Mike, read further. Bylaws section 119b states if new user attains new Pro by ways of writing nasty letter to Toyota, new user shall be allowed 24 hours to post a pic of their truck as proof. Welcome bud.

    Thanks, guys. I was wondering if anyone else out there with the 5.7 engine noticed that it's a little noisy? Mine sounds like the main bearings are noisy until it's warmed up for a while, and then it sounds like noisy lifters after that. Dealer said it's normal for that engine, but I tend not to believe those guys.
