I like mine tons of power for what I do now ie flat towing my 81cj, small utility trailer, ample room inside with the crew max. The bad radio antenna broke off one morning when I was scraping ice off the window, rubber stripping is coming off driver side window more of a dry rot, bad gas mileage but that is a known fact on these machines. This is a 2011 and I am second owner bought in 2014

Do you have any pics? I am contemplating lifting mine

2017 limited. Gas mileage sucks. Factory premium radio sucks. Electronics suck in general on the truck compared to other vendors. Remote start sucks. You can start it but when you unlock the doors to get in it turns the motor off... cool feature the back window rolls down. Wife says the ride is smoother then my 2011 fx4. I put 30 bags of corn it and was surprised how much it squatted the truck. Assuming it is as reliable as people say those are small trade offs after 2 fords in a row that spent a lot of time in the shop. I have 10k on it so far. If you decide to get the extended warranty there is a dealership out of Colorado that sells them online much cheaper

2014 tundra crew cab 5.7 4x4. Stupid amount of power and torque for a half ton. Super roomy inside the truck front and back. A/c will freeze you out and heat will bake a turkey. The posi-trac saved my bacon on black ice pulling a trailer. Steered me straight and back in my lane before I could blink. Not much road noise. Very comfortable ride. Will tow anything and then some for me.
Cons: lower fuel mileage. Paint is very easily scratched so don't get black like I did. Also, if you get 4x4 and put it in 4 high, TURN OFF THE LIMITED SLIP AND POSI-TRAC!!!! If you don't you will burn up a gear in the tranny if running in 4x4 and loose traction. Trust me, I know. And it was 100% from this.
