Welcome from the wet side of WA.

My folks are in the Clark Fork Valley. Beautiful country out there.

Thanks, I got my topper from Shane at ProTech Detailing and Rhino liners. He is a great guy to work with.

That is some rugged country out along the Clark Fork. I've wanted to do more exploring in that part of the state.

Hi All,

My name is Adam and I hail from northwest Montana. I've been lurking on the forum here and there for a while as I was doing research on what truck I should buy.

I purchased a Cavalry Blue 2019 Tundra Crewmax Limited, with the TRD Off Road package, back in December. I honestly wasn't looking to get a new truck until later in 2021, but found I couldn't pass this one up after I test drove it. It was a lease return that had just under 33k miles on it when I got it.

After driving a Chevy Silverado 1500 for almost 20 years (and a Chevy S-10 for several years before that), I decided to try something new. I have never had a Tundra (or even driven a Toyota of any kind) before now.

With the kids getting bigger, I needed more cab space than my Silverado had in the extended cab. Additionally, my 20 year-old Silverado was really starting to show its age. It was time for a new truck.

As for modifications and add-ons, my Tundra has a plastic drop-in Penda bedliner that will get replaced with a Line-X spray-in liner next week. There are also some AMP Research Powersteps that will get Line-X on them as well, since I have already found them to be too slick. The kids and wife have really appreciated the Powersteps, so I just want to make them safer for us all. Eventually, I want to get a topper for it, but that will need to wait (hopefully not too long).

I'm still getting used to the lack of storage under the rear seats (as compared to my Silverado), but I've learned I didn't really need all the stuff I had been storing. I've seen quite a few ideas on adding storage under the seats already, so have plenty of options if I decide to go that route.

I have already learned a lot from what I have seen on the forum, and hope to learn a lot more as time goes on.

Of course, everyone wants to see pics. So, here is a pic my wife took when I brought the Tundra home.

Welcome! I am a new member too and I live in the Flathead in Kila! I have a second generation 2007 tundra with only 88,000 miles. I want to learn everything I can to take care of it so it can last me a very long time. I use “ Timber” to haul hay, snow plow and soon to haul a travel trailer. He is a beast!
