    Greetings to all,

    I have a 2019 Barcelona Red 1794 that I've had about a year, and have been reading from this forum since then. I am not one to ask questions, which is probably why I never officially joined. I now feel that after making some changes, I may have something to offer.

    This is my first Toyota truck, but my 4th truck overall. Believe it or not, what actually led me to this truck was renting a Toyota Camry for a day and finding the level of quality in the interior very noticeable. We went to the dealer, and sat in the Tacoma, which was really nice, but when I sat in the Tundra, I was like, "I want this!".

    I am very happy with this truck, and the only aspect I found lacking was the JBL system which was rectified last week with the addition of a full JL Audio system connected to the factory head unit. I did not get the TWK-86 yet, I am still toying with the settings on the FIX-86 using the TUN software. Also, thanks to those that recommended the C5-650's, they are truly amazing.

    Next up is swapping out the tires. I read through the all the wheels/tire threads several times.
    Went so far as inspecting the space in my wheel well with the wheels turned to see what everyone is talking about regarding removing and cutting stuff etc. I think I'll just go up a size, keep the same wheels, which will keep the bed height reasonable. I climb onto the bed loading fat bikes all the time, and stepping onto the bumper and climbing up is already near my max comfortable height.

    Looking forward to hopefully contributing some meaningful information.

    Scott
