    Hey guys. I’ve been finding a lot of great info here and thought I’d join.

    We’ve been shopping Tundras, and are getting close to locking one in. My son and I have been into dirt biking the past couple of years and a truck appears to be in our future, and will only look at Toyotas!

    Started looking at Tacos but size matters. The used market has been frustrating, so leaning toward new...and torn on the DC/CM decision, but will most likely go CM.

    We’re on our second Sequoia, so the truck should feel familiar (pic below for street cred!).

    Welcome from Fort Worth! Are you in the DFW area or willing to drive? I know a GM very well and I'd recommend seeing what he can do for you.
    Either way, good luck. You can't go wrong with a Tundra!
