I can’t be the only one... (the young-ins only thread)

Finally a forum for me LOL

 

How old are you, Gian? Although the SoCal Shenanigans runs are a bit on hiatus, I do know some youngsters (compared to the oldsters that took over this thread, anyway) that like to play in the dirt in the SD area.

 

im 17 haha. There are some older peeps on here but they're all pretty awesome.

 

I think we have the honorary youngest member thus far!

 

LOL yeah I'm pretty young, Love to spin some tires with you guys though!

 

I will jump in here, 25 and have had my 2012 Tundra for a little over a year. Inherited my dads long bed taco with 170k miles on her, which I proceeded to total thanks to a deer up in Colorado. After that (and the insurance money) I wanted something to tow more and 4wd so here I am.

 

I'm Drew, 26 and in a few months I'll be 27, but I've had my 2011 TRD Rock Warrior for a little over 2 years now. Ventured over from the sister site, Tacoma World where I have been a member for going on 12 years. I also have a 2006 regular cab Tacoma that is now just a toy for the woods and cruising around in on occasion.

 

I’m 55, but my wife keeps telling me to grow up! Thanks for keeping the forum young, guys..!

 

I’m 25.. but I’m not sure if that makes me young or old?

driving the beast makes me think of highschool when I’d do stupid shit in the taco (that may be running again this year)

 

22. Been on here since I got my truck two years ago.

 

Realized the picture didn't attach to my post

 

Hey all, my name is Josh, I don’t consider myself to be a tundra Owner (since the tundra I’m driving was given to me) but I drive and care for my truck religiously. I’m 17, but not like most 17 year olds! You’d never believe me but I genuinely care for this truck that has been given to me. I love it and won’t get rid of it.

I’ve never wanted to tell anyone my age on here for fear of being called “daddy’s money” or just not being welcomed because of my age. Based upon the current population of millennials in our world, this would make sense. I promise I’m different from the rest! Thanks for making this post @Nic146

 

Just be yourself, buddy. Don’t worry about what any other people think about you. It literally doesn’t matter.
Something I heard that I never forgot:
“If you live for the praises of man, you’ll die by their criticisms.”
Not saying you’re doing that, but it’s sage advise.
Nothing wrong with your dad giving you an awesome truck. That’s only a bad thing when the son is a spoiled brat. You’re clearly not.
Be blessed my man.

 

Supposedly anyone born after 1980-ish (can't remember the exact year) is technically a millennial so, if it were truly an issue, no one under 40 should be sharing their age on the internet.

 

Hey dudes! My name is Mac and I am 24. I had a 2000 Tundra extended cab, then a 2018 Tacoma Crew Cab TRD Off Road, and now I am driving a 2021 Tundra Crewmax TRD Off Road.

No daddy money here, I have been working in bike shops my whole life as a mechanic, even during highschool. I worked two jobs in college while getting my engineering degree, and now work as a Project Engineer. I bust my a*s for what I have.

 

I wish I could afford a 4-5 year old crewmax when I was 20, but for some reason I thought going to college on my own dime was more important.

I was wrong. I should’ve gotten a trade job and spent all my money on property in the 90s. I could’ve retired in my 40s.

 

i failed out of college and have been working in industry since I was 19

 

Thank you sir for your kindness. You are so right by what you said about living for man’s praise. There is only one who I should be looking for praise from, if you know what I mean. Again, thank you for your kind words, they are much appreciated.

 

Atta boy! You earned it and you are obviously seeing the fruits of your labor. That’s really really cool. That truck is freakin sweet.

 

Thank you!

 

@Sitting Sideways you bet!

 

So I'm 39 as of Saturday. I bought my First and only Tundra 2008 when I was 29. Not my first Toyota though I had a 96 Toyota Camry V6 that I ran for 295k and still ran great and looked great. I've always taken care of my vehicles but I also like to have some fun with them. I'm From Tulare, California. Also bought an Fj 2014 in March of 2020. Love that FJ.
