    Wife and I are new homesteaders with designs on 22 acres in Broome Cty, NY. We picked up a cherry extended cab Tundra which we intend to make our mule and do most of the heavy lifting. She had had zero accidents (thankfully) and I plan on keeping it that way with Gods guidance. 132,665 miles is all she has after I put on my 2,412 miles and done a complete oil change and purchased a new Toyota radiator, the beast still purrs like new and handles like a 17-year-old on steroids. This is our very first truck and what a truck it is!

    I wish everyone on board a spectacular and healthy new year.

    God's blessings always!

    X2 on Welcome aboard. Double cab (standard door handles up front with side way opening rear door handles)? Since you are using her like a truck on the homestead, you might want to look at floor mattes to keep the dirt/mud from getting into your carpet/carpeted floor mattes. The Husky Contour liners seem to be a favorite for Tundras. They fit well to the floorboard and don't get in the way. https://huskyliners.com/p/husky-liners-x-act-contour-floor-liners/v/toyota/tundra/2008/
