liking people’s junk! I used to have a good truck.Thought i'd start posting my Tundra here. Have had an account on here for forever, but I mainly post on Tundras.com. My user on there is 300BLK4x4. This was from a few weeks back during the snow storm. Preparing to do a slew of maintenance on the old girl. Just replaced the battery which i got 6 years out of (love Toyota TruStart batteries). Going to be tackling inner and outer tie rods, thermostat, and transmission and transfer case fluids this weekend. About to hit 200k on her.
200k is very impressive. Are you running wheel spacers with the factory wheels?
Yes, 1.25" Spidertraxx spacers with the factory wheels. Though i'm looking to get some Rock Warriors next as i'm due for tires not too long from now.

a well-maintained 1st and 2nd gen Tundra should last 200k+ miles no problem

Oh for sure. I was more impressed with that many miles on a 2014.
Oh man I cannot describe how excited I am right now. Installer just sent me these. He says it should be ready by later today.
That's a good contact pattern.
Moved Tundra 10 feet away, to let the high pile of ice and snow it was parked on a chance to melt. Checked the maintenance log: last time Tundra got fuel was mid-December. Fuel gauge is still above the center mark. That's right: the best rust prevention is to keep it away from all that road salt =)
Installer said running Lucas 85w140 helped my oe gears stay healthy.

Drove the newly formed US Wildland Fire Service’s fire investigation refresher in Socorro NM. Got home this afternoon. Washed it. Put the Thule box on. Leaving for CO Sunday morning (family trip this time). Anyone here an INVF?
Used the winch for the first time. Moved it 5 feet but it kept digging in deeper so we stopped and waited for the tow truck.
Another dude learned the hard way that the wheel has to be smaller, for the tire wall to be higher. And run it on lower pressure if you want to stay on the pavement.
Needed a long 2x8 and 200 American lbs to raise the belly by the rear wheel in order to to offload the weight from the wheel, use winch to pull it sideways, then reposition the winch and pull it straight back.
Still a lot of water damage.
I pulled a couple this winter. Don't cheap on wheels and tires. And use brains.
