Which Tundra Should We Keep? 2021 Crewmax or 2006 Double Cab
Somehow we ended up with two Tundras. We need to sell one but just can't make up our minds about which is best. This video is a detailed walk thru of what we love and don't love so much about our 2006 and our 2021 Tundras.
Please let us know your thought in the comments.

1st Gen Tundra VSC/Stability Control Fix
Просмотров 4,5 тыс.2 года назад
I love my 2006 Tundra. However, it came from the factory with Stability Control. This system is downright dangerous. Prior to 2005 Tundras did not have VSC or Stability control. On newer Toyotas there is a way to disable the system from the driver's seat. I want to be able to choose when the system is active. I think I may have figured it out. MODIFY YOUR VEHICLE AT YOUR OWN RISK! If you have f...

Old Bike, New Tricks- Which MTB Upgrades to Make

Between scarcity and price increases many of us are riding older bikes. We look longingly at those new Enduro sleds, we have a dream bike, there are so many trails we want to ride. I have been on the same hardtail for nine years. This old Niner is so balanced and fun! I have tried numerous full squishy, all the new tech bikes but none of them had the same 'feel'.

DIY CargoCamper- Why Rush? aka- Where to stay in Bend when you haven't finished your build?
Просмотров 2022 года назад
It didn't happen. Our little ADD2 did not get finished. It was going to be a challenge, in the end I am glad I decided not to rush the process. Instead we stayed in a restored 1963 Airstream at The Camp in Bend, OR. A total win. We loved the little trailer! The Camp proved to be a great base camp for all things Bend. www.thecampbend.com/
Remember to Weigh Your Wood!

What wood should you use for your trailer? MDF and Melamine are heavy. Construction grade plywood doesn't make the prettiest cabinets. That leaves finish grade plywood. I really like working with plywood and love the look of Baltic Birch. However, there is a range of 'Baltic Birch' products available. We are ready to start cutting cabinets, but which wood to use. We want a good finish, lightwei...

New Trailer Day! Part 1 DIY Cargo Conversion Camper
Просмотров 4 тыс.2 года назад
We did it- we bought another 7' x 12' cargo trailer. This time an aluminum EZ Hauler. Made in Missoula, Montana! This one is going to be very similar to our first trailer, Munson. A few slight changes space wise- a lot of changes nobody will ever see. The hope is to document our build- day by day. First we need to get the CNC up and running. Please follow along.

Snugtop Rebel Topper Review

We purchased our first new car this year- A 2021 Tundra CrewMax. Knowing we planned on an around the country trip with our kids we knew we would need a topper. I have owned a range of toppers over the years, from used value brand shells to custom built metal toppers. But I had never owned a SnugTop. SungTop has a reputation for premium quality at a premium price point compared to other options....
Quick Connect Olympian Wave RV Heater- How To a Quick Disconnect Propane System

This video covers how we set up a quick disconnect propane system for our camp trailer. I prefer to have a portable propane tank over hard mounted systems. There are a number of reasons why I like a portable system- #1 Portability- you can cook where the scenery is and are not stuck in an RV. Also a portable system can go on side trips with you- leave the RV for a day at the beach, bring the pr...
Festool 1st Reaction- Kids Making Stuff

Huck and I get a chance to test some new Festool tools while making a Bearded Axe. I began purchasing Festool tools in 2021 after looking to update my old framing tools from the '90's. So far we love Festool products! I think they may be a bit much for making kids toys but Huck is the best tool reviewer in the house!

    Hello sir I am John Chan the fisherman. I own a 2007 tundra 5.7 liter with 189k miles on it. It runs perfect and there's no oil leak nor oil burning. I pull my 22 ft fishing boat every summer. My wife and I own my toyt tundra, 2018 nx300, 2013 rx350, 2023 gr86 and 2007 rx350. Love all my toyt. My truck worst mpg was 10.3 that's because I have lead foot. But high ways on cruise control it could get 17 mpg. My 5.7 truck isn't going anywhere for a long time. I hope you will keep the second gen for years to go. Good luck, thanks.

    My first new car was a 2016 Tundra TRD PRO. It held its value so well, I did better on it than I would if I would have went with a used one. Sold it for 10k less than I bought it, and zero maintenance. Overall costed me $200 a month to drive. Between the lower interest rate on a new truck and no maintenance, they're usually cheaper to own in the end.

    Been chasing this problem on my 05 DC 4WD Tundra. Toyota Dealer told me all my sensors were working properly and that everything was working as designed. Several zero point calibrations did not solve the issue. I’ve heard all 4 wheel speed sensors should be removed inspected/cleaned and tested with an Oscilloscope to verify working condition as scan tools are too slow to pick it up. Toyota really crapped the bed on this problem and at this point they do not care. I’ve had multiple zero point calibrations done by Toyota as well as alignments and sensors tested and calibrated. Going to try this route and I will report back!

    Well? What did you do? I’ve owned both! Second gen was totaled by a texting mommy. I own a 2005 with 120k. YOU have to sell your gen one baby or ( best) KEEP B0th. I love my gen one but it’s not as big for a family. Just got Bilstein 6112’s and all ball joints and looking forward to an updated ride… I love the simplicity of the 4.7 and don’t miss issues related to smog co2 sensors. Your kids gonna live that gen one someday.

    YES.... 1st Gen.... from Twin Falls.... enough said... lol nostalgia will carry longer than a motor and you have two of the best gassers ever built!! 4.7 and 5.7 and my preference is the 4.7 because it was actually built to aviation specs!! all the UZ motors are... so much heritage in those engines... absolutely genius craftsmanship... mind you that Lexus division with their pursuit of perfection pushed a billion dollars into their cars and they developed 2 of the 3 UZ motors.... so Toyota realized they messed up with T100 trying to put a v6 in full-size truck (still solid)... which are great trucks but US didnt' like V6s at the time.... so they came out with the second gen T-100 and tried to name it T-150 and ford sued them over the name! Toyota changed it to Tundra... and put a V-8 in it! and they grabbed this motor from their Lexus/toyota bone pile..... lol. this is the lightest chassis for this motor... Put in Landcruisers, Lexus LX470 and Sequoia's and a few 4-runners... mind blowing balanced motor and my truck is way more enjoyable to drive vs. what's out there today.... This was the truck that under promised and over delivered!!! and on Tundra.com forum many people have stated they wished they never sold their truck.... I'm only 2 minutes into the video but the fact you highlighted your early model Tundra first shows me the passion.... let's see how this video ends? lol

    I'm sure you've already made your decision by now, but as a dad of growing kids as well. The comfort and the bucket seat in the 2nd gen are a big win. Especially if you're business is now in towing. Otherwise keep them both and let junior take the 1st gen.

    @WSTLNZ Год назад

    ? What a HUGE effort and a waste of another trailer - just to have a single axle box trailer, permanently fitted onto a normal two axle flat deck trailer. THE ABSOLUTE SIMPLEST METHOD, is this: Make a small single axle (dolly) front turntable axle, and MOUNT IT, via the hitch of the single trailer you "wish" to convert into a double axle trailer, so that you end up, with a FULL trailer, with an axle at either end, one fixed, the other rotating (to enable you to turn the trailer when it is being towed or reversed. THAT WAY, all you need to make is an A-frame attached to an axle with a king-pin (standard 1+7/8" or 50mmm ball depending on which size BALL hitch your trailer has. PLUS, the upside, if you ever NEED (or want) to have that small single axle trailer for mondain weekend rubbish trips (to the transfer station's green waste pile) - just unhitch it from the front axle (by unclipping the tow hitch from the dolly itself) and bingo - you effectively have TWO trailers, a single axle (off-road / unregistered) so-short dolly, and a normal single axle licenced unit.

    I have this problem with 2006 Tundra quad cab. It does seem to be primarily drivers side but happens turning either direction. Scary as hell. The power cutout issue happens when turning right at an intersection with a slight incline and trying to catch up to the speed of traffic. Truck slows and traffic behind has to brake until my truck recovers and can accelerate again. Curious that subsequent models have the ability to disable VSC.
