    IMG_3885.jpg Hello,

    I purchased this second generation Tundra new in Dec. 2012. It's a Base model 2013 Tundra Crew Max 4x4 5.7L with dealer installed 3' levelling kit and 20" black wheels made by Gear. The tires that came on it are Falken Wildpeak 305/55/20. It also came with chrome nerf bars, navigation, rear backup camera, chrome billet grill, chrome bumpers, and bucket seats. My rear seats are adjustable which they changed in 2014. I don't mind either way since I don't ride in the back seat. The windows have Tundra etched into them which are pretty nice. I haven't had any mechanical issues with this truck except that my horn just stopped working and it's due for a state inspection. What luck ! Now I have to fix it before the end of November. I looked into this and found that it's common in Tundra's. I never thought that my horn would stop working. I currently have 57,000 miles which is low for a 6 year old truck. I'm also ready for new tires but want to install a 6" lift first. recommendations are welcome. It's been a Great truck and I plan on keeping it another 4 or 5 years if I don't have to spend money on major repairs. Now that I own it I can spend money on mods. That's a plus ! In the past I purchased a new truck every 3 to 4 years but now they are to expensive. I'm looking forward to learning and getting advise on mods and problem solving.

    Welcome from GA. Your horn stopped working? I have a 2001 and mine just stopped working as well. What did you find out about why that happens and did you find a fix yet?
