    Well Friday night I traded the tacoma in, I couldnt justify throwing money fixing and re-doing mods on an off-road rig that I daily drive. I began looking at full size trucks for a few reasons, power for starters to tow our hauler and boats. Secondly the gf and I plan to start seeing more of America and you cant beat a full size for ride quality. This truck will be nowhere nearly as modded as my tacoma was but I do have some minor plans for it. So thanks for looking at my new build!!

    Heres how she currently sits and I could not be happier!








    2015 Tundra SR5
    Black 4x4 Doublecab
    [​IMG]

    So as some of you know i was torn between the 5.0 FX4 F-150 and the Tundras, price point and interior quality made that decision for me! Cant get over the interior of this truck!
    [​IMG]

    The redesigned front ends are beautiful, in fact i have no intention of changing it, except for the OE Rigid fog light kit and the Rigid 30" SR series in the lower grill.

    4x4 Double cabs are pretty hard to find apparently, one of the few the dealer had that was an SR5 and in my budget was black, I inquired about a white one but estimated order time is 6-9 months! Without even seeing the truck I bought it, they delivered it to my work the next day.

    Some cool interior features!

    Never got to see your Taco. But I'm sure it was pretty sweet. Look forward to seeing more pics of what the Tundra is going to look like.

    Still have a 98 4runner thats going to get built to the not so street friendly amount(linked tons and 40's), so the tundra will be a nice tow rig for it when I get it there. :cool:
