    2018 TRD Off Road CrewMax SR5
    Hi all. New to the forum here. Previously I owned a 2007 Tundra double cab 4.6L. Owned and loved this truck for 11 years, 98,561 plus miles on it. Truck bed was rustng out. Aftermarket battery and original alternator recently crapped out leaving me stranded. $109.00 tow through triple "AAA" to the local dealer. $980.00 to get her repaired. 4 weeks later the instrument panel lights up. You know the ones, CHECK engine light, 4lo, VSC Off light & car slipping on road icon. Make an appointment at dealer to find out it is the two vacuum sensors that need to be replaced for $1200.00.
    So with that said, I weighed out the options, cut my losses and am now the proud owner of a 2018 Tundra, TRD Off Road, CrewMax cab, 5.7L, 5.5' bed length With the new Toyota Safety Sense technology.
    Recently been using the forum for information regarding first time oil change on new vehicle. Every thread has been very informative and I look forward to reading other users posts.
    Thanks
    Lovethetundras guy,
