[bradrob82]

On thursday i picked up a 08 Double cab 5.7 4x4 Tundra from kern toyota in winchester. It was hard to pass the 0% finanacing for 5 yrs and $1000 cash from toyota. I will post pics asap.

Awesome. I just picked up an '07 CrewMax over the weekend. How do you like it? It's a whole lotta truck!

I have an 06 Doublecab Tacoma and was lucky enough to drive one of the new Tundra's for about 10 hours between Mifflinville, PA and Albion, MI. After getting home I was VERY close to trading my Tacoma in for one. If only I didn't have half the payments made already I would of done it without a doubt.

You'll LOVE the truck.

i like mine alot. already pulled a small 4x4 garden tractor with it, and it drove like it wasnt even back there. i just picked up a tekonsha prodigy brake controller for her today, since i have the tow package i will wire it up to existing wires and have it ready to roll.

Fort Knox, what color did you get? I got a Royal blue looking one.

I had a 85 4Runner on a tow dolley and the only time I noticed it was when it would hit a bump.

Yeah, that's the brake controller I'll probably go with also.

I believe mine is called "Desert Sand Mica". It's the beige one. Here's a couple of pics of it w/ the trail rig (and the 40 in the background):

I have a prodigy controller in my Ford. You can order a harness right from prodigy that is vehicle specific. No splicing. It's a direct plug in. Makes for a real easy install. You'll like that controller.

Too bad you don't live where I do. Freedom Toyota put an add on the radio the other weekend, $10,000 off, 0% financing...

yeah i dont have a digital camera, i have to wait till i can borrow one to get some pics of it. I put my brake controller where the ashtray was, easy to get too. i used the stock wiring harness to the tekonsha wiring and it seems to work good. will try it out on thursday when i pull a dump trailer to the dump.

Mike, i doubt i am going to weld anything on or too it anytime soon!! but if i do or need to i will keep you in mind :D

Wait, you just bought a brand new Tundra but don't have a digital camera :eek:. Is your cell phone rotary too?

Come on I have some scrap steel, we could make some frame art for ya :D.

Mike i figured out the whole camera phone thing, so here is a lil pic of my tundra pulling a 3 horse slant gooseneck with tack room. i installed a reese/ draw tite gooseneck hitch on it this past weekend, doesnt pull bad at all.
