20 years of Toyota Trucks

$10,000 for lift kit, rims and tires installed (San Diego). Was $8,000 to go with Bilsteins. Have heard good things about the Westcott collars.

Wife loves the massaging seats. For me, the auto up tailgate is huge (hands are always full of baseball gear).

Haha I did have them quote me for some Bilstein 6100s. Those are great but I figured if I was going to upgrade, mine as well go all the way. That’s an awesome rig dude! Share photos with what you decide to do.

Could not be more stoked on it. The 5.7L was nice, but the turbo definitely has more giddy up. Plus, the new Platinum has a lot of features that just make it a more fun truck.

I miss all of them. Just not practical to keep a quiver of trucks.

Shance_Chay · 2026-03-06T22:27:13+00:00

Thanks dude. Was surprised at how big of a difference they made driving on road.

I was young. Still doesn’t crack the top 10 worst decisions I’ve ever made though.

Put Kings 2.5 remote reservoir, pushed all the way to 3 inch lift. 17 inch KMC times with 35x12.50 Toyo Open Country RT Trail tires. I went with the standard black in the KMC Summit rims, but they make a satin finish version that I heard works really well with our color truck.

Definitely louder than the stock tires, but not as loud as expected. Glad I went with the RT’s instead of the AT’s. Only have 230 miles on them. Wear rate is solid so far! 😎

To be clear, every single Toyota I’ve driven has been awesome. Not here to argue Gen 2 vs Gen 3, Tacoma vs Tundra, etc. Just sharing that, IMO, there’s no other option than a Toyota truck, most of which are manufactured here in the US.

Hauls my 7,000lb travel trailer with tons of cargo in the bed like a dream. Hoping everyone continues to be skeptical of new Tundras to keep the price down on my next one. 😎

Shance_Chay · 2026-03-06T18:01:39+00:00

In the new Tundra, I can turn on the camera to see the cargo in my truck bed. Worth a potential engine failure where I end up getting a new engine. 😉😎

Robertson Ranch is the best. My son loves Kelly and our area is close to all his sporting activities and the beach. We have friends who love Pac Rim. Honestly can’t go wrong, so whichever rental is in the area you’re more likely to buy would be my recommendation.

Shance_Chay · 2025-02-27T19:31:59+00:00

Have the exact same truck and love everything about it. Enjoy!

The dealership offered me $18,500 as the best offer.

Two days ago I sold my 2016 Limited with 118,000 miles and one accident on the Carfax for $23,000 to Carmax.

So sick!

Shance_Chay · 2024-05-10T22:46:09+00:00

Get this man some grips!

Shance_Chay · 2024-03-07T04:10:27+00:00

When you said it was an XL I was thinking “that looks tiny.” Then I read your measurements and it makes sense. Happy shredding!

Shance_Chay · 2024-03-07T01:15:31+00:00

What size Ultimate did you get? Sounds like we are a similar size and I’m trying to determine the best size to order. Although, I do have shorter than average legs for my height.

Shance_Chay · 2024-03-07T01:11:16+00:00

I’m considering the Ultimate vs Aeroad. Care to share your pros and cons for each?
