those are great trucks with alot of options available if and when you wanna add some things to it. when that day comes, let me know, i'll get u some good deals. i see alot of trucks come in and out of my place. the ONLY complaint i get on tundras is the gas mileage isnt that great.

Thanks fellas! I can already see that the gas mileage isn't great but it might get better once it's broken in a little.
This one is staying un-molested. The only accessories I'm adding are floor mats, toneau cover, BedRug, and some Step-Bars. |

I think those are a pretty quality truck. I think they are nice as far as ammenities go... but it has got to be the ugliest truck on the road.

Hahah Thats ok. I just dont like the grille, wheels. I dont like 3 tone interior. I guess it looks and feels more like a cockpit like that but I know I wouldnt wanna drive it and look at that all the time.

That is said from a man that sells his Lightning and switches to an import truck. I think if you need more room for the family. There is always a Harley Davidson edition truck and it is Supercharged! Even the F150 has plenty of room. JMO

That's true. But this truck has everything I'll ever need in a truck. Plenty of room , plenty of power, and outstanding warranty, and luxurious interior. It truely is a pleasure to drive and it's a lot cheaper to maintain than the Lightning was. I'll also be able to put away a lot more money toward retirement with the low payments I have now.

Oh and BTW.... you must not have seen the 2009 Dodge Rams if you think the Tundra is the ugliest.
