^ I'm very interested to see how the F-150 differs (hopefully for the better). You keep a tight leash on your trucks. Keep your updates on this thread. I'll subscribe to it. Hoping Ford does you right this time!

that color always catches my eye on the road. I had an 88 bronco with a similar blue.

That gas mileage part is really interesting because I tell people that all the time. That motor is old (technology wise), the gearing is real low on some (big reason why they're fast), and they get bad gas mileage! I didn't think you were one of those "new truck every year people," so that's good to hear. I just figured you'd hold onto the Tundra for a little longer. But I'm definitely not complaining that you didn't! Can you not get 6.5 foot beds on the full sized crew cab Tundras?

No Toyota does not offer lower rear ends or 6.5ft beds in the crewmax

That's strange. They do some things that are very good that other companies don't do, but then do some things like that that make you wonder what they're up to

Well got the cover on tonight, went smoothly as I learned a few tricks from the last install I did. Best pics I could get tonight, and yes that's my 2012 Tracker Targa v18 Combo in the garage.

Well I changed her over to Castrol Edge with Titanium 5w-30 with a Mobil 1 Extended Filter. Figure 900 miles is plenty for original break in oil will start changing 3500-5000 miles depending how much work she does. Also gave her a hand bath today since it was about 10 degrees cooler this afternoon.
