    Yes! I’m honetsly not bummed about having to get rid of the Tundra. I’m really excited about the Tacoma. My brother had a 2011 Tacoma and we beat that thing to hell and it never once gave us any problems. First thing I want to do is get rid of those damn ugly Predator side steps.

    It was a bittersweet day for me. I picked up my Tacoma TRD OR and turned over my Cement Tundra TRD Pro.

    I don’t feel bad about it all. Before I took the Tundra to the dealership though I went out for one last off road adventure and drove the piss out of it...seriously I’ve never driven that thing that hard before. What an amazing piece of machinery. My only regret is that I didn’t drive it harder for the time that I had it.

    With that being said my new Tacoma is sick! I am really digging it!!!6BD7463A-1A82-429E-8B1F-E7071D3B990C.jpgFB7AA57D-A661-47B8-AF80-D361AEC80E78.jpg

    Not really, she had to be careful in gym class playing soccer or stuff like like that because of the wires in her chest, but that’s been about it. Kids heal fast !

    Pretty sure a first gen tundra and a 3rd gen Tacoma aren’t that much different from a asize perspective though?

    Welcome from another former Tundra owner, though mine was 15 years old when I traded her in! I included the TSB file here for you and had it done to my 2018 TRD and recommend it.

    I did the same a month ago. Traded in my 2007 Tundra for a 2017 Tacoma TRD Sport. Are you looking at any mods? I want to find the best lift Tire/Wheel config. Any hints ...anyone?

    Welcome buttt....

    The difference between your Tundra and Tacoma MPG and Payment should be very very negligible.

    Like a 3mpg difference....

    My 2017 TRD got 15mpg. My 2018 Power Wagon gets 13.5 mpg....twice the truck, engine, cab size, payload, towing etc.......

    Just saying theres not much difference mpg between a full size and a taco but a huge difference in performance

    25mpg average on my 2016. You either drive pretty aggressively or have modded yours a bit...
