And wieght of each is?

Bluedog · 03-11-2005, 06:22 PM

The 05 Tundra has 282 hp and now the 5 spd trans. The power is nice, I'm not sure how much heaver the Tundra is, but it get's up and goes pretty good.
The nice thing is, all the controls, lights, turn signals, and wipers, are in the same spot except the shifter, it's on the column. It also drives nice, It's a lot bigger but doesn't drive like it's bigger.

The best part, no TRAC. Did a nice fishtail in the parking lot this morning.

The Tundra is 4950 Lbs. or something close.

Good upgrade.

My wife wants her next vehicle to be either a Tundra DC or Tacoma DC.

I just hope I can keep the cars we currently have and just make an addition.

Have fun, You will enjoy the Tundra,
I miss mine...

rwmorrisonjr · 03-12-2005, 12:55 PM

Nice upgrade. If I didn't havemy commute I'd definitely consider doing the same.

Bluedog · 03-12-2005, 05:37 PM

Loaded a frideg in the bed tonight. So far so good.

t009166 · 03-14-2005, 10:20 AM

what brand are those black wheels?

MTL_4runner · 03-14-2005, 11:17 AM

I wanted a Tundra for a while now...

I need to start a business to be able to expense it out.

EDGE · 03-14-2005, 12:40 PM

What no Titan

j/k

Nice ride, I thought about getting a Tundra DC, get a bed cover, makes it faster since you drop the drag and it increases gas mileage

Great truck. two good friends have 05s. One buddy just put the PP 1" springs on his 4wd tundra and it looks like a real truck. That with the billies and that thing handles great. you might want to look into it.

Wanna sell your 17" Tundra wheels???

Bluedog · 03-14-2005, 07:01 PM

The black alloy wheels are from Wheelers Offroad. They were on my 4-Runner with the Revo's.

I am looking into some sort of leveling kit for it, but I need to recover from the ARE Z series top I just ordered.

The handling is great. I have never had a truck this big, it doesn't drive much bigger than my 4-Runner. Just gotta be careful when backing out.

Sorry, I'm going to hold on to the 17" stock wheels.
