    What’s up everyone! I just got my first Toyota (and non diesel truck) about a month ago. So far I love it! I’ve always been a Cummins guy but don’t NEED the power so I decided to try out a Tundra. Got a pretty good deal on it in Omaha, NE so I was able to get a 900 mile test drive in bringing it home lol.

    A 900 mile test drive is pretty bad ass in itself. No wait. You had already bought it right? I see now. The test drive was you driving it home:homer:. Not sure I would call it a test drive considering you already bought it. It s more like a, I hope the hell it lives up to me expectations drive.

    I admire the way you purchased it. I was thinking of doing the same thing concerning a 2021 Camaro, but I chickened out.

    It’s definitely more risky with a used vehicle. With new vehicles it’s pretty easy if you get financed before hand. Just make sure you ask all the right questions about fine print fees and stuff like that. You can definitely find better deals in other states sometimes
