    Just bought my first Tundra about a month ago and I absolutely love it. My 06 F350 was stolen back in March which forced the purchase of the Tundra. I couldn't be happier with the new ride! It has some modifications done to it like new shoes, slotted rotors, Bilstein leveling kit, and a killer stereo system. I got really lucky with the price for a 2012 with 99k miles!
    When I was looking at it, the best part was when I dropped the tailgate and saw the carpeted bedliner, which tells me the guy before me definitely babied it... Or at least I hope. I'm glad to be on here with you guys!
