    2024 platuim TRD
    T cover, side steps, cat & skid plate
    My name is Mark and I "WE" purchased a 2024 Tundra Platinum TRD as a replacement for a Dodge RT. Because my wife decided to get a puppy and crate train, wouldn't fit the dodge,
    80 k for a dog carrier LOL, all good.

    Now this truck is really growing on me and I'm really starting to like it. However I'm keeping a very close eye on issues as i read some of the posts about engines and tires issue as well as leaking oil. currently i have a recall wrt my front tire w air leaking..

    As for mileage, since driving the truck we routinely get ~ 8L/100k but have got it as low as 7.3 as per attachment

    So far i have purchased, T cover, Side steps, Window & Hood deflectors, A Skid plate & Cat cover. currently waiting for A Gate king to fit my truck and C/A intake.

    Also due to my Military service as a Weapon tech and currently a QC tech. I'm all about scheduled/preventive maintenance which will reduced corrective maintenance costs.

    I read some posts regarding Oil change intervals OM states 16 km, but i will changing oil every 7-8k KM some at my cost in between dealers schedule.


    TIA

    Well the first one is Madison Scott wich they just found her remains a year ago now give or take she was last seen at a party at Hogsback lake if I spelled that right ! And the second one is Lindsay Buziak, the realtor who was brutally stabbed to death when she went to show a house to a suspected buyer..... still no suspects in either case ..... this is what you do when your a home body, watch true crime

    Ya. Sadly the days of women being safe to just enjoy life without fear never really existed, still don't. Madison is like every girl I ever dated when I was a kid. Country days of bush parties were so a part of my past never thought of it back then. Lindsay's death is just plain creepy, since there is evidence they won't share cause its tenuous and they are afraid of scaring people away.
