    Hi folks. I think (hope?) I got lucky. I went to my local Toyota dealer just to get a feel for some trucks before buying a used one that had about 30,000 miles when I saw a 2023 that had first been purchased in Feb 2024, but was returned because dashboard light came on.

    I bought a 2023 in July 2024 as a "used" vehicle with only 3,600 miles!! I couldn't turn it down. It was my midlife crises. I live just outside of Boston, and my wife and I are looking to begin making "weekend" trips.

    I just bought a camper tent cover at OSJL and I am looking to fit some kind of sleeping pad into the truck bed. I have seen some pretty involved build outs, but I am looking for simple and easy. I also need to repair the Tonneau that I bought from Toyota.

    I was loading the back on a ferociously windy day and the unsecured cover got picked up and slammed against the very small antenna mount on the top back of the cab. This poked a small (about 2.5 inches) hold in the center of the first / back section. I am going to clear tape it on both sides and possibly cover it with a sticker of some kind. Thoughts? Nice to meet you all and thanks for everyone's willingness to share ideas and thoughts.
