    Hello from Alaska! I've owned our 2006 crew cab Tundra for about 5 year's now. I'm currently sitting in the tire shop getting some MT Baja Boss ATs installed. Decided I should probably join the forum since I 17568564467901358352850688314156.jpg would like to do a few mods eventually when money allows.

    Welcome from South Central Tennessee!

    Nice truck, the topper looks really nice on there.

    Idaho will be a little warmer with more winter sun for you.

    The company I work for is closing my department down. I could stay at the company in a different role but also at a significant pay cut. On a single income that makes things really tight. We also have some significant medical issues in the family that currently require full time help. So we need cheaper cost of living and there is family in Idaho that can help. Not what we planned, but it is what it is.

    |Welcome from the valley or basin, whichever the lunatics I live near have decided it is!

    Yeah, it's the "Valley". The basics that I'm willing share are this:
    The company I work for is closing my department down. I could stay at the company in a different role but also at a significant pay cut. On a single income that makes things really tight. We also have some significant medical issues in the family that currently require full time help. So we need cheaper cost of living and there is family in Idaho that can help.

    Mainly some "overland" style mods. Nothing crazy. Things I've considered are a front bumper, suspension upgrade, air compressor mount, build the truck bed out, upgrade the stereo deck to something modern with a back up cam. Stuff like that.

    That sounds great!!! I've done some of those. Mainly front bumper, winch, light bar, suspension, rear bumper. Interior has been upgraded a little bit. Did the storage mod under the rear seat. Seat covers. That's about it.
