    You can't be the only one with a fun toy to drive. Only fair to share.

    After reading 300+ posts, I'm surprised no one has stated the most valid opinion of all:
    THERE ARE ONLY TWO GENERATIONS OF TUNDRA! Don't believe me? Ask Toyota! The first gen being the best of course. Followed by the big bloated barge with sheet metal so thin they need bed stiffeners. Don't believe me? Ask Total Chaos! They don't offer them for 1st Gens because they have thicker sheet metal and therefore aren't needed. Still don't believe me? Pound sand! :thumbsup:

    Funny you mention that, I was ready to wait it out for the Rav4 Prime but the TRD exhaust on the Platinum said, "buy me".

    Haha no it's okay. But I must admit, this is a first I have heard of somebody preferring those over the real deal. More power to you!! I think you may be winning this post now :D

    I’d never lift my truck. As good as it’d look I think it’d take away some of the utilitarianism of it. How am I supposed to load a couch if I have to lift it up to my chest first before bedding it?

    To that, I have another unpopular opinion: leveling trucks is silly. I like the factory take, and it doesn't improve performance.

    I remember when those things first came on the market. Bragging about them being Surimi Crab Legs. I was in the restaurant business at the time and was like WTF is a Surimi Crab!

    More power to ya Bubba. :thumbsup

    I can't stand the rattlin' the 5.7 does. I remember bigger engines whispering till you got on it. I know it's the valve train but still.

    I'd say that this is a popular opinion shared by every other person on two wheels. South Park had a great episode about the hardley ableson types years ago that summed it up well.

    1) Most people spend well beyond their means(including $600/month truck payments) and have themselves to blame if they can't go a few months without a paycheck.
    2) I don't trust people who solely drink shitty beer. Live a little.
    3)99% of tattoos look horrible and are not unique.
    4) nearly all new movies are horrible.
    5) we care way too much about sports.
    6) most Americans don't care about their health.

    I agree with all except number 5.

    This one is probably unpopular enough to get me perma-banned: three down football is faster and more interesting and entertaining to watch than 4 down football. And the NFL has too many timeouts.

    • If your truth is different than the truth, then you are wrong.
    • Oppression, much like oppressing, does not grant one special access to truth.
    • People who seek to place you into categories based on immutable characteristics like sex, gender, ethnicity, etc. have their own interests in mind, not yours.
    • People who choose not to have kids enjoy their freedom early on, but they end up leading less fulfilled lives.
    • The irreproducibility of published research, which is rampant across a slew of scientific fields, shows that scientists are motivated more by funding than by a dispassionate quest for truth.

    Rock lights are awesome and useful when camping. I don’t use mine for crawling, I use mine to set up camp or when I decide to go to the bathroom at a night. Lol. Sure I could add other lights on the truck, but They don’t use much amperage so it won’t drain my single battery by keeping them on for a bit. Plus they look cool to me. Here’s my rig in the Mojave. 6FB92C1A-1272-4D30-BD3A-68E50D15EFC5.jpg
