    Wasn’t planning on driving a Tundra, but ended up with the Tundra.

    My wife needed a new vehicle. She decided she wanted a truck. I bought her the 2019 Tundra 1794. She drives it and then tells me she wants my RAM. So I getting use to my new Tundra.

    After putting 600 miles on it I can say I like it better than the RAM.

    The only two complaints I have are “the key” (REALLY TOYOTA GET PASSED THE 90’s) and the stereo is kinda week.

    But the truck has more usable power (in beast mode) than the HEMI and is more comfortable.

    I’m in The same boat man. I’ve had an 7.3 f250 diesel for years so going to this tundra was a change. But I agree with you, some of the features that the vehicle offers are outdated. Audio headunit seems to have a clunky operation. And the sound is pretty much lame. I’ve got the jbl system in mine.

    But, it does have the HP. There’s always pros and cons with everything. Satisfied none the least.

    Welcome from AZ! Weak sound is a general consensus on the Tundra. Lots of threads on ways to improve it, though.

    Yea I agree. I just have a hard time spending more that 1800 for better audio. I don’t need door rattling bass so I’m looking for a tweeter and mids upgrade.

    They do make a killer product tho.

    Maybe @0002s means the City of West near Waco. Some places in West Texas, he would have to give you GPS coordinates to tell you where he lives. I think I do recognize that pump jack though. :D
