    Hello Tundra community, I'd like to introduce myself. I am just your average male with a love for god, family, guns and trucks! I have recently purchased a 2014 black Tundra CM TSS 4x4. I'd like to think I got a good deal on it. I paid 20k with 170k miles. It did have a full 6" BDS and RCX lift with Fox shocks and NO spacers. It has 35x12.5r20 Nittos, but badly need replaced, which will be done soon once I decide on 35s or 37s. The truck was a 1 owner clean Carfax truck with being rigorously taken care of. The trucks shows very minimal wear for have 170k too! I will post pictures for you all. I am excited to learn everything I can from this forum as I venture onto making this thing unique to me. Thank you all for your time reading this, and have a great day!

    Welcome.

    A bit of black vinyl wrap around that silver in the interior would be excellent. Not hard to do, nor super expensive.

    Good idea! I also very badly want to get rid of the chrome on the outside! I hate chrome

    That's one of the reasons I went with a tundra, they are IMO the most reliable truck on the market today and homegrown!

    That thing is clean. I wonder if the previous owner was a member of the forum. If you want to improve the acceleration, especially if you move up to 37's, I highly recommend getting the Banks Pedal Commander.

    Thanks! I honestly am not sure if he is a memeber on this forum? I should of asked him. I will look into the BPC! I have never heard of it until now!

    Welcome. Nice truck and since it’s black you have an every other day excuse to be out of the house, washing it. :rofl:

    My last one was black and it looked great for about that long.

    Your not kidding! I have had a few black cars and I am actually selling a black car now. What's funny is I told myself when I decided to buy a Tundra that I wanted white. Well, obviously that didn't go as planned. There is just something about a big black lifted tundra that's a head turner.

    I get it. Most of the trucks I have owed were black.
    And we all know they look better and are faster than white.

    If I done my research correctly, black adds a little more HP, due to the chemical make up of the paint colors! So I think your right?
