    Haha. Larger tank came with one of the packages (38 gallon).

    Only thing I'm debating on would be a front hitch to throw a dirt bike on to not block the tailgate. But haven't looked into that to see if they exist without getting a whole bumper... Which would mean it won't happen.

    And you have to trim or lift to get anything larger than stock on the truck... So that's why it made it easy to stay stock.

    Yeah. But I'd need the bike first.

    Usually that DeWalt boasts that it fits between standard 16" oc studs. In this case, it'll fit between two vehicles parked in the garage. :eek:

    Seat covers set to arrive next week.

    Got the center console organizer that got lost at the post office. Also got my dash cam that was originally delivered to someone else.

    Hoping to hear that the Decked drawers have shipped tomorrow... Fingers crossed.

    I had the same one in the taco since Feb 2017. Good video, easy to use. Comes with a GPS receiver for speed that you can use or not.

    Only complaint is it's silver so it stands out but the last one I hit with black model paint so it wasn't noticeable from outside. It also isn't fire proof. :bananadead:

    And from inside, I got the mirror mount and it hid behind the mirror real well. Not sure what sensitivity i had it on but it would capture and save videos when I would close the doors sometimes (when the truck was parked and off, would've worked well if there was an impact when parked). Night video was pretty good for the price range. In traffic it was great, in the middle of nowhere it is as decent as your lighting.

    Only thing it doesn't have, which i couldn't easily use now is a rear camera. Since the rear window rolls down, can't attach it to there. I searched for a while and didn't see anything else at the price point that was worth giving a shot.

    Lifted, Armored, needs more lights.
    Interesting that the tundra seats fold up like that.

    It does make a nice area, but blocking the use of all the space behind the seats is a waste

    It'll be a decent amount, but could store a ton back there.

    ESP makes a great storage accessory for under the seats. When’s the Tundra build coming?

    If I wanted those cubbies I'd cut the carpet then find containers that would fit them. They are real proud of their product.

    And no build, it's a work truck so only what will help for work. Off-road travel will be a dirt bike... Or boots.

    Priority is to buy acreage, build a modest home base that'll all be paid off within a year or two then I'll be able to do some world travel as I please.

    I said that about my Tacoma 17 years ago. Was supposed to stay as a grocery getter.
