I to would like to see you supercharged, but the runners will be a nice first point of modification. Does the tundra have an electric rear window (do you have that option?)?

The link PAt provided is pure trouble. We are wanting a new fmily truck,will have to PM you for some deetz on your dealings.


Yep, it's got the full roll down electric rear window, oddly one of my favorite things about the truck.

There is a reason I asked about it. That feature put the Titan in front of every other truck in the market for me. Knowing the Tundra has the capability blurs the lines.

Will be nice to get to the PnR in...:D

I looked at Titans, too. For the longest time they were top of the list for me. I nearly bought one when the 8 was giving me fits. I thought Nissan would have good (or at least competing) deals with the Tundra, but they wouldn't come close. Toyota was heavily discounting the Tundra, and with 0% financing, that locked it. Dynamically, I preferred the Tundra to the Titan, anyway. I didn't drive any of the domestics.

Nice! The hubby wants one sooo bad. How is the space in the back seat? Do you think you could fit car seats back there?

I have a car seat back there now. It fits easily. My almost three year old sits back there and couldn't come close to kicking the seat in front of him, even with the front seat all of the way back. I don't know if there's a vehicle, short of a limo, that has more back seat space. Ha! The back seat also slides forward and reclines. Wee!

Added tint from Eclipse yesterday. As usual, great work and it looks good. I wanted to match the existing rear privacy glass and it came out perfect. Now, for the Weathertech mats today. Down the road, probably the black grill, some TRD wheels, and sidesteps. Merely cosmetic mods, and all will be with factory OEM parts. Sidesteps may be the one item that could be aftermarket.

It fits! Kissing the front wall, I've got about 3 inches of space between the rear hitch and the garage door. Now, it's time for garage reorganization.

Sweet! Glad to hear. A matter of inches or not, a single inch can make all the difference-- I should know.

Just finished reorganizing the garage. I had to flip things around so the truck and the Murano would fit. I was able to do so without having to move anything out of the garage...amazing the space you can get if you try. Verified that car doors can open fully without interference from anything. Woohoo!

Thanks. I'll take that frustration over being out in the weather, though. I'd prefer a larger garage, but this solution was free.
