    Hello all. I'm a former Tacoma owner who finally made the switch to the bigger, and possibly better of the Toyota trucks. I had a crew cab with the Tacoma, and decided to keep the trend going with the Tundra. I'm the proud owner of a 2012 DC 6.5 bed w/ the 4.6L v8. I'm loving everything about this truck so far.

    I'm very excited about moding it out, and was pleased to see the array of mods listed on this forum, especially the free ones! So far I've done the double cab seat back mod, the fog light mod and I made a new shift knob to replace the clunky stock one. I went a step further with the folding seat back mod and added a cargo net behind the rear seats for extra storage.. I love extra storage.

    What are some of your favorite mods you fellow Tundra lovers have done? I think I'd like to do the pop n lock tailgate mod and add the under seat storage bin next..

    Ron the ocd organizer is a must, and those AJT hvac knobs are HARD!

    Sorry about that, it showed Family as the code, and free ground shipping on orders over $50. Like you said it's a steal either way.
