    Just wanted to say hello and glad to be here and learn about my new toy. This is my first Tundra so I'm new to it. Previously a big GMC Z71 guy. Figured I'd upgrade to something different for a change. Purchased my 2020 SR5 4x4 CrewMax w/ the XP package this past Friday. Haven't really been able to drive it much due to shift work which started Saturday morning and ends today. I work @ a steel mill so I just drive a 2003 Camry here due to the lime that will eat away at everything in its path. I started to get a 2018 TRD Off Rd, but it showed a lot more wear on it, and this puppy was about as clean as they come. Plus I really liked the way she looked. I also plan on doing different upgrades to it. So it just made sense in my situation to get something that was a little more bare than the TRD. I don't do a lot of 4 wheel driving. Only when I'm at the hunting camp, so I'm not really sure what all I will be getting done to it just yet. I do look forward to see how it does when I do take it off road. I've always been real impressed w/ my Z71's in the past, but I'm sure this truck will be just as good if not better. I've already ordered a few things for it. Mostly just small stuff like led headlight bulbs, led fog light bulbs, and a few things for the interior. Any tips, mod suggestions, or anything else will be greatly appreciated. I'll include a pic, but it's just a pic from when it was at the dealer. It's the only one I have at the moment. Thanks and I'm look forward to all the info that is available here.

    Welcome from Spanish Fort! There are several relatively inexpensive mods that can make your truck even better. One of the first that I recommend is the drivers side grab handle. Welcome!

    First tip, pull up to stop sign, press your Tow/Haul button, make sure road is clear and stomp on it. Smile everytime.

    I hear you there. I’ve found myself already looking/ buying a good bit for it starting day 2 of ownership. Fortunately, being a boat owner has prepared me well for dumping cash into things.
