    Hi all. Just picked up my 2022 Tundra yesterday. A white on black SR 4x4 with mats and charging cables(really toyota? cables?). I am a former Toyota Master turned Network Engineer. Before you ask me technical questions, you should know that I was dumb enough to buy a new 2022 Tacoma on 1/1/22 just to sell it a month and week later so I could get the 2022 Tundra. Genius, right? Because the market is dumber then me, I basically rented a new Tacoma for 5 weeks for what it costs to rent a econo-box for 5 days. About a 1200 dollar move. Not bad really. I'm here to see the dumb decisions y'all make and see if I can top them.

    P.S. Why does everyone make wheels with those stupid fake beadlocker appearance stuff. Can I just get a decent bronze wheel without fake beadlocker look?.....

    Nice intro! Welcome from LA (Lower Alabama)! And I feel the same way about black wheels with the fake beadlockers.

    Go Family in Bama. Split between Roll Tide and War Eagle. I'm a Gator, so I only have to hate Bama every other year. I'll be in Trussville at some point this year.

    I went with the Icon vector 5 wheel for that specific reason. No fake bead lock. They have them in bronze. But i believe the lug pattern is different in the 2022? Maybe the vector 6 fits?

    I just got a 2022 SR with 4x4 and 8ft bed for a work truck. I am probably going to abuse the crap out of it over the next ten years and hopefully save money on gas and resale value over other trucks. Is the hardware and software compatible in the base model to add Toyota's own air suspension and other features down the road or can I get the toggle switches for their dash array and rig up after market ones up myself?
