    Hi all,

    Originally was just lurking the forums once I got my Tundra, found myself on here every day so why not sign up.

    I am the owner of a new (to me) 2020 Tundra SR5+ Crewmax in "Attitude Black Metallic" with 61,000KM on it (I think that's around 36000 Miles?)

    I specifically chose the 2020 over the 2022 because of the reliability and reputation that came with it. The fuel economy for me has not been bad at all compared to what I've read online.

    Whoever owned it originally put a lot of (highway) miles on it for the age but it was apparent to me that they cared about the truck, at least a little, they did a nice job de-badging, adding rain guards, getting nice Toyota alloy wheels, and a few other things I'm forgetting.. It didn't have off road tires on it so the first upgrade was to BFG KO2 AT's and I am loving them.

    I am loving all the comforts and features of the truck so far. As someone here suggested I put it into Tow/Haul mode and hit the gas at a green light and almost shat myself. Even with traction control on I spun my brand new KO2's on concrete and went flying! This is my first real truck and I couldn't be happier.

    And thanks to this website I just ordered myself a set of RCI rock sliders, full skid plate, and catalytic converter guard. Once I get them I'm hoping to take some pics of the install, before and after, etc. These things cost and arm and a leg to get to Canada, so I hope they are worth it!!

    I don't want to go too crazy with modifications on the truck although I think we know how that goes. For now I'm building it out for modest off-road/dirt road use and camping. I've already taking it hunting and its performed like an absolute charm.

    I will try and post some pics of the truck as it currently stands in a few minutes. ..
