    Why don't you have a 3rd Gen Tundra?

    Because I have a 2.5 Gen that I paid $40k in cash for, and it fits my needs perfectly. That is why.

    That might be hard. I do some videos just holding up the phone in my truck. Need to get a go pro mount before doing that. I won't even drink a beer and drive this car. It needs your full attention if you plan on getting after it a bit.

    My buddy has a supercharged GT350 and it is the same way. I've driven it a handful of times, including at high plains raceway, and that car wants to kill you. It's better now that it's on R88Rs but even then it wags the rear end a little in 3rd on a hard pull

    That is one of my favorite tracks.

    I can relate with the car wanting to kill you with NFG.

    So far so good, he also did all the crank support stuff and a bunch of other little things with tuning to help keep it from blowing up. Drives like stock until you get into it

    Replaced the factory fogs with Diode Dynamics mounts and SS3 Pro's.

    Really wanted a 3rd Gen, but we pull a travel trailer and are typically loaded down fairly heavy. I'm one of those weird people who gives a shit about numbers and could live with about 1,800 lb minimum payload. Ran across a '22 F-350 Lariat with a 7.3L and 3,977 lbs of payload.....overkill yes, but I'm perfectly Ok with never having to stop at another CAT scale and I love everything about this one.

    I have been looking at them when the time comes to get rid of the Tundra, seem to be solid from what I've seen. Good looking truck!
