    Working on it.
    yes they are.

    I drove a '11 Tundra 5.7, a '13 5.0 F150, a '13 Eco F150, a '12 Raptor and '12 Titan in San Diego on the same day back to back all were used with less then 20K miles.

    I love the Tundra's interior and looks, plus its a Yota
    I loved the sound of the 5.0.
    The EcoBoost did not impress me, maybe i needed to tow with it?
    I drove the Raptor for fun....to much $$$. But I wanted it soooo bad.
    Fuck the Titan.

    Anyways I didn't buy any of them......I moved to CO and 6 days later bought my Tacoma. Do I miss a full size? Yes sometimes when loading dirt bikes and gear. But it does the job, will haul and tow what I need. I can still wheel the shit out of it...and it didn't break the bank. To each there own.

    If you think the inside of an 11' Tundra is nice, u should see the overhaul on the 14'. Soooo much nicer.

    I took the 32 hours online and then took the 1 day in class part in Denver. I think the company was called Compliance Solutions.
    Here is their website: http://www.csregs.com/
    I think they have offices all over the country with a location in Denver.

    Big tires, big lift, Lots of stuff's.

    I live the tundra, and I will be buyin one when I'm done paying for my wife's nursing school. My dad bought a 2013 Eco boost and to be honest I think the interior is nicer than the tundras. I'm hoping Toyota steps up their game by the time I'm ready to drive. Although Sean's limited is nice inside and is way better than his last one for sure. My brother has a 2012 raptor and I love driving it but I'd still rather have the tundra. Although if I went with a Tacoma it would be a supercharged double cab short bed. It will haul anything I need it to as of now. But I would like a camper soon so I'm thinking full size.

    Yes I didn't like your old one as much as the new. You need the ball coolers though. Or for the ladies I call it the tuna fan :D

    Nice! Suppressors FTMFW!

    The new ones are certainly nice. Toyota has always been just a little bit behind the times on interiors IMO so hopefully they start to step up their interior game. My buddy with the two Raptors that I finally convinced to add a Tundra to his fleet of Fords & GM's decided to trade a Raptor and Tundra in an a new 2015 1794 Tundra. He drove one and really liked it and pretty much hates his Raptors now so he's working a deal to trade them both in on a new Tundy. Looks like we have a full convert! :D

    Cooled seats are the best feature ever added to a motor vehicle. Ever.

    Yes. I would like to but sadly I can't. Might have to hit you up next weekend depending on how my mom is feeling. She just had chemo yesterday so she will likely not feel to well today or for the next couple of days.

    Yes ball coolers are the best. I have seat earners in my wife's car and I can do without those. I'm never cold enough to need them. Next weekend I have some family stuff to do with some out of town people.

    The Optima (picture below :D ) has heated seats front and rear which are alright in the winters in Colorado but man, those seat coolers are where it's at! :cool:

    I put heated seats in the Tacoma & I'm currently working on adding venting similar to what's in the car. I often drive that car just for the seat coolers when I'd rather drive the Tacoma, especially after installing my new audio system. :cool:

    I forgot that the manual transmissions do not have torque converters so adding an additional cooler isn't necessary.

    After sleeping on it and doing some math, in order to get a Tacoma in "towing" shape, I would have to spend roughly $6K + miscellaneous parts on a vehicle I just bought. That isn't gonna work considering I need that money to move across the country.

    For the total amount I am looking to spend, I can either get a brand spanking new Tacoma with all the bells and whistles I want (minus the S/C), or a used (less than 40K miles) 07-10 Tundra with the 5.7, leather, sunroof, etc.

    I am not considering any other full size trucks at this time. If I got anything else it would be a Cummins but that's not what I want to discuss lol
