    2022 I-FORCE Max Tundra Platinum
    I was pretty excited to find the Tundra board. Had a 2017 V8 Limited, great truck and loved the crewmax feature. Thought it was excellent to drive on the highway with family, yet dreadful on gas usage. I had opted to move to a Sierra 1500 when covid was in full swing, had one of those deals on an SLT you just couldn't pass up. Anyway started hunting around again after selling the Sierra earlier this year.

    To the important stuff... was doing some research on the 22 models and the dashboards being used had me at hello. Fricken awesome technology that theoretically does everything. Saw that Toyota moved to a v6 in the Tundra :eek: and was like there is no way this will pass the sniff test. Opted to drive one just to see, test drive was incredible. Left thinking this thing is completely legit and I want one now!! :benchpress:

    So ya, there is basically nothing beyond an SR5 in dealerships at the moment. Which leads to my next ah HA!!! moment, went to a second dealership and somehow ended up in an i-FORCE Max Hybrid... was blown away again. Specked out a model and ordered:

    i-Force Max 4x4 hybrid
    Platinum
    Bells and whistles
    etc

    was told 6-8 months for build cycle, fine waiting this period. Assuming lots of folks on this board have ordered Toyotas for '22. I'm really interested in hearing about how long the process took before you got the vehicle... also assuming you got the vehicle. Anything crazy in the cycle, did everything come out as expected?

    Just want to get this thing on the highway and drive to Dakota or something far away. Appreciate the help!
