Should have bought GM...lol
How much was that thing? They must be giving kick ass deals now. Dude, why do you need a trailer? Put ur bike in the back with the stands and gas, then the other ish in the cab.

And I'd much rather pull with a dodge (or ford or chevy) than with the toy. Actually looking at a dodge diesel now... not sure if I want to buy a new to me vehicle before I leave for a year though. |

I love Toyota's....I am currently driving my 8th one.
Looks like you went with the Double Cab.....was there an opportunity to get the CrewMax instead? If you're going big, go all the way!! Very nice purchase! Congrats!!

My dad's 99 F-250 7.3 Powerstoke pulls pretty well. Thing is a fucking beast. It's probably had a trailer behind it for 3/4 of its miles. |

There is no such thing as good mileage in a truck.
There is only more and less shitty. ![]() That's a damn fine Tundra. ![]()

Nice truck and congrats on getting through a big stage of life. At some point here I intend to return to school. With a new job and a new race season it sounds like you have much to look forward too!
Good choice on the truck. My buddy has one but with smaller wheels and no gps but he loves it. |

The newer Chrysler tranny's are definately a hell of a lot better than they used to be.

I don't need all the space now but I will want it in the future. If you haven't noticed, I'm a 'do it once, do it right' kind of guy ![]() I want to build in a workbench and my tool chests and a fridge, have room for a couple bikes, and also I am going to sleep in the thing on race weekends. Also might help my buddy trailer his spec miata to the track a bunch of times. You mean my Tundra that was designed and built in the USA, that is more american than most 'american' trucks? Unlike the GMs that are made in Canada? Yeah, that. Quote:
I got a very good deal on the truck, about 10k off sticker. I beat them up pretty good on it, I don't think I made any friends there ![]() I am not going to stuff the cab full of supplies and load and unload my racebike every time I want to go to the track. I can practically have an entire workshop in the trailer... just hook it up and go. Quote:
Plus, I don't give a shit about my passengers in the backseat ![]()

Looks good!
Toyota trucks are not my cup of tea, but the interior looks well done. They really changed those trucks in 2006 right? The previous Tundra had a very wimpy rear axel. I don't know why, but I can't stand that type of shifter. I still prefer the one on the console. I'm on my 3rd Dodge truck. Might actually get a Chevy or Ford next time around though. I'm tired of trade in value plummeting by 10k the second I drive off the lot. Besides, Chrysler may not be around in another year or so.
