I like sleeping in the bed of my tundra when I hunt and scout.

My first gen tundra has almost 300,000 miles on it and is a beast. I put even more pinstripes on it last week, which was yet another reminder why I bought a vehicle so old I could just hand over cash for it. I'd probably spaz out if I had a 2015 truck and vandalized it in such ways. Well maybe not if it was a Dodge  :chuckle:


I'd spaz out if I had a payment.
Just tend your own and live.

I am only going to keep the truck if I get the four runner. If I get the truck there's no point that I can see to keep the old one than use the new truck as my daily commuter

^^ Never again. I'll ride a bike to work until I can scrape up $500 for a bondo covered Pinto before I'll go back to a car payment :puke:

One can do a lot of mods and repairs for the money a new rig costs....even a few hundred dollars a month can equal pimping an older rig.

I'm with you. I paid cash for my excursion and added a built tranny, bigger turbo and injectors as well as supporting mods and now you couldn't pry it from my hands.

What is your current truck? If its still reliable I would hang onto it, and get a commuter/family rig.

 I purchased my Excursion new and love it. Just put new injectors in it and can not believe the difference. I'd consider buying a new Excursion with the 6.7 Scorpion engine. :tup:
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

I would also go with 4 Runner - this is the best choice for hunting rig!
