    2020 Tundra SR5
    I am new to the forum but not new to the Tundra. In 2007 I purchased a new SR5 and drove the truck for 10 years before selling it to SIL who is still driving it today. Very few issues with the truck. Had a recall on a regulator motor, some type air induction issue that Toyota repaired even tho it was out of warranty. Also had a mouse eat into part of the wiring harness under the hood, but was repairable. At 10 years I replaced the serpentine belt and battery. The battery was still good I was just afraid it may leave me stranded.

    For some crazy reason in 2017 at the age of 69 I thought it would be good to downsize to a Tacoma. You know better gas mileage, easy to drive around town, ect, ect, ect. Yep went with the TRD Off Road 4x4. Huge mistake. I tried really hard to love the Tacoma but just could not adjust. In January 2020 I purchased a new Tundra SR5 upgrade with the TSS package. I am in heaven again, love my Tundra.

    By the way hello form the Great State of Texas.
