    What’s up my people. Quick background. Grew up in a Toyota household, dad only bought tundras for himself or 4runners for my mom. Needed a truck for my lifestyle and career. Only seen dad drive tundras so I figured I’d switch it up. BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER. Bought a new GMC 2500... worst truck experience ever. Stuff is rattling and clanking 1600 miles into a brand new truck. I’m going to take the loss and trade it in on a tundra. Should’ve bought one from the start knowing even my dad can’t make the wheels fall off a tundra after the times I’ve seen him abuse it for work. I’m sorry Toyota fam, but I’ll be loyal from here on out! Will post new tundra in a month or so. Thanks

    Thank you all. I appreciate the support. I will post as soon as I get truck in. Currently starting new job and moving so a little busy. But I CANNOT wait to get out of this GMC. I guess you live and learn like some of you guys said.
