    Just saying hi since I'm new here. Picked myself up a nice used 2014 Tundra Platinum in Blue Ribbon Metallic a couple months ago, it's my first real foray into the Toyota world and I love it so far! I've been mostly a Chevy guy and I'm still a big fan of the early 2000's generation, especially when it comes to the hot rodding side of things but I just can't get excited about the newer ones not to mention the issues I've seen popping up with them at relatively low mileage means I just couldn't bring myself to go that route...so here I am!

    Welcome, I’m an LS fan as well but the 07.5+ gm trucks are junk imo. I had an 03, 12 and 16.

    Agreed completely, the displacement on demand nonsense turned a reliable engine into a ticking (literally) timebomb. So far the only real negative I have with this Tundra compared to all the other guys' comparable trucks is fuel mileage, BUT, coming from an 04 Escalade and a boosted Silverado both with 6.0's this thing is still an improvement in that department so that's hardly worth mentioning lol!
