I like the grill and the changes to the instrument cluster. It would have looked better if the emblem was black rather than chrome.

Hold the Line! If you are not holding the line, abandon your ship. Destruction is inevitable without more to hold the line!

I think the wheels actually look really nice. Just put some better tires (BFG, Nittto, or Coopers) on them and I am away. I am not a fan of the grille, but I could live with it. I wonder if they added the option to view the transmission temperature on the electronic dash display...probably not.

Nice truck!

I like the instrument cluster.

I saw some other pictures of the 18' with that grill and for some reason it looked better in those pictures. Maybe it was the distance or angle.

Grill....no no likey. Wheels haha...exact same style on my current 14 Platinum with 33.5's mounted. Toyota must have a bunch of left over Plat wheels from 14. Instrument cluster not a whole lot of wow factor. Looking forward to seeing the new 5 yr reconfiguration in 2019. Having said this, I plan on keeping my Sliver Sky Plat for the long haul.

Don't mind the grill, but I must be one of the few that doesn't like the new instrument cluster at all. The bigger display area is nice, but it doesn't seem like it makes any better use of the information it displays, and I don't like all the auxiliary gauges all clustered in the middle.

We just got in the new Tundra in Vintage Brown. It's a Platinum. Looks pretty good, but I'm going to wait until they clean it off to see the new paint color in the sun.

Got the new Sequoia in too.

I think the front ends on some of these new vehicles looks horrendous. Examples...Corolla, Camry.
At least the new Tundra still has a good looking front end. But i did not buy the Tundra for its looks.
I hate new designs. Too damn futuristic looking.

Sorry, I'm not impressed any of the changes with the 2018's ... if I were to buy one, I still see myself making the same changes I did with my 2016 except for maybe the headlights.

I'm actually digging the new grille. The honey comb shape would work well with my model T emblem from Diaz fab.

I imagine these will only come with the lower surround like the pro's etc. and not by themselves.

And yeah, those new headlights are MINT.
