Default Picked up a new truck

Well I got tired of the Camaro and wanted to get another truck. I ended up getting a 2011 Tundra crew max 4x4 with a 5.7 and six speed.

Since I picked it up I did an OME 2.5 lift wich actually came out to a little over 3" and KMC Monsters 18x9 +35 offset with 305/65/18 BFG A/Ts. I also have put on 6k HIDs in the head lights and fogs and LEDs in most of the other lights on the truck.

I'm going to get a body color grill for it. CAI and exhaust. I have been real happy with the truck so far. It's kind of weird not having a GM product but it's definitely a nice truck.

I will get some pics up soon

those crew maxs have the most room I've ever seen in a back seat! Also have a huge price tag...

I have other LSX powered toys to play with. I hardly ever drove the camaro. It was an expensive garage ornament. I'm saving over $200 a month between insurance and car payments.

I'm working on my 90 GMC and I picked up an 89 mustang coupe that is getting the forged 370 and 4l80 out of the VHO along with a pte88. I figure it will be a good replacement for the camaro.
