I wanted a truck that looked more aggressive but didn't want to give up any functionality.

I have been looking at new pick up(s) and planning to buy a GMC Canyon in about 6 months. As part of my market research, I stopped in at my local Toyota dealer, Willson Motors in Bellingham, WA, and asked what kind of deals he had on Tacomas. He told me that he could sell me a Tundra for less than the Tacoma. Once I saw the special offer, I moved my buying plans up and took home the Tundra. I'm 63 an have been buying cars since I was 15. This was the easiest and most satisfing vehicle buying experiance in all ythose years. And.... I simply love the truck!

Now I'm here to look into the very few mods I want to make.

New to this site. Trading in a 2003 Tundra access cab. Getting a new 2006 double cab Tundra in a couple weeks. Want to put a camper shell on it. Been looking at SnugTop HiLiner which has a little more height, 3 to 4 inches, above the cab height. Anyone installed this or similar model of another brand? Want to use a boot between the shell and the back window but some say they leak. Anybody have a recommendation? Looking forward to being a part of this forum!!

Hey all...Big fan of what this site is all about. I have an 01 Ivan Stewart that I just LOVE. I am a first time poster to site. My Tundra is black and I have added the following to it...Recaro seats in a two tone black/gray with heater and fan, Skid plate, and K&N filter kit this last week. I noticed that there was a posting and photo regarding the wheels on the IS Tundra that are pitting and peeling. This happened to my wheels, and had them replaced with me paying 1/2 with my local dealership. The second set did the same. I have an appointment on Monday to have them redone. A guy has a mobile van that can repair on sight. This problem is because of the clearcoating. I will keep you posted when the work is complete.D.

I dont know If this is the right place to post this. I have major problems. I have a 97 Limited 4 runner. I've been pulling a 16' 2000# with an additional weight between 500-1500 #. I am hearing a winding noise either coming from tranny or rear(dont know) what do you think would mess up first. I have been pulling over 6 months @ 3 timse a week.

I going to buy me either 03 or 04 doublecab. What would you suggest in TRD, RR lock,4x4 row what what would be best for me to pull. If I had to get an 03 model what trim(chaisis) should I get. And if 04 I want double cab. What options should i look for in this deal.

If you can tell me what you think has happened to my 4 runner. I smelled a burning oil or electrical smell after hauling a 3 Yards or topsoil 3000#

Hello,
I just found this site. I have an 03 SR5 AC 2wd, standard trans. Bought to kick around and use for lumber for woodworking. I then bought a camper and thought I would need a new truck to tow, untill I installed a TRD supercharger and TRD clutch. No problem now i never slow down on the hills anymore. Just had cruise control installed today works great

Just joined the group yesterday. I've got the '03 Tundra standard cab, extended bed, V6, 5 speed (gold). Never any problems with the truck, very satisfied with it. Truck has low miles because it hasn't been a primary vehicle. Now It's my only ride so it will get more use. Decided to look on line for vehicle info...

Hello all,

I've been a member for some time but this is my first post. I just traded off a 1995 Camry with 124,000 miles for a 2006 Tundra SR5 Double CabTRD in Natural White. I also have a 2000 Tundra SR5 AC that my son now drives and my wife has a 2000 RAV4. This is my fifth Toyota vehicle and they just seem to get better.

I have been lurking for some time. Just picked up a Tundra DC last night.

Hopefully I will be able to add a little to the great forum that is here.

Hello TS members.
I'd made the decision to purchase the Tundra DC 4x2 after browsing TS, now I'm a proud new Tundra DC owner and loving it.
06 white Tundra DC, 17" alloy., remote keyless entry, LSD, JBL 3-in-1 stereo.
Looking for some OEM upgrade such as alarm system, fog lamps, sidestep bars and bed covers.
Any help or advise for new owner is much appreciated.

Hey everyone

I just bought a 2002 Access Cab with a V-8 and the TRD Package. This site has been great for looking for upgrades for my truck. Thanks to all the posts.
