    Hello all,

    New member here, although I've been lurking and reading posts for some time. Just sold my 2016 Jeep GC High Altitude, as I am coming back to Yotas.. Before that I had a 2006 4Runner 4.7, and realizing that I need the utility of a pick-up truck and the reliability of a Yota means I'm in the market for a second gen Tundra Crew Max.

    I am looking at a Rock Warrior this Saturday - a 2011 that just rolled 100k on the odometer, so if all looks good I'll be driving it home, and then parting ways with more dineros to add some tasteful mods here and there..

    Great to be here with a bunch of knowledgeable enthusiasts. Insights I've gained from prior reading/ lurking have been very helpful!


    Warm regards,

    J.

    Hey all,

    Thanks for the warm welcome! I've got to say that I have the bug bad! I typically always do a lot of research prior to purchasing a vehicle, as I've always wanted to know about stuff I spend my money on, and I also turned wrenches (just a little) as a college job. Compiling a list of mods I'll do once I have a Tundra in my garage - hopefully Saturday will be the day.

    I miss Columbia. It’s on the list for retirement places. Seems likes it’s really grown lately though and I’m sure cost of living and housing has gone up with it. I graduated in may 00 and moved to stl right after.

    I'm born and raised. It's changed a lot -- cost of living has increased a bit, particularly in the real estate market. Been a seller's market for a quite a while, and recently with builder supply decreasing it's really shot up.
