I'm glad it went to a good home. 727,000+ miles of which I put on 626,000+ miles. It hauled a lot of beavers the past 21 years. It served me well.

My wife's favorite was a FourRunner and after two small trucks I bought a T-100 which was a great truck. Incredible resale value and few problems. Never wanted a Tundra for some reason. Maybe things have changed, I don't know. I'm sure he is a happy man. Pete Last edited by swift4me; 01/27/25 12:18 PM.

Wash and wax it regular,it will last longer than 10. Truck looks in great shape Paul.I bet you maintained it regular. Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
