I really love my Tundra. It is a 2002 and it has 40,000 miles. It is from
all of those miles driven between work, fishing, and hunting. The V8 has
plenty of power. The towing capacity is somewhere around 8000 lbs. My gas
mileage on the highway is 18 MPG except for when pulling my boat it is 16
MPG through the country. I have had no complaints or issues with this
truck.

When I bought it, I decided to go with 2WD instead of 4WD because I was
buying my boat in the next month. The 2WD has never been a problem. I duck
hunt and many times the boat ramp has been iced over, but I have not had
problems. I have put chains on my tires at the boat ramp though a couple of
times to be on the safe side. 4WD would have been convenient in that
situation, but chains are still better than 4WD, but a pain to put on. If I
had it to do over again, I probably would have invested into 4WD.

I need to clarify what I said. I should have proof read this better
before
posting. You should unhook the line at the radiator. The idea is that
you
want the fluid to come out of the actual line (where it can be directed
into
a bucket), not the actual radiator connection because you will have
fluid
go
everywhere. I was able to look at mine and take a logical guess as to
which
line I should use. If you get the wrong one, you will know soon enough.
Just hook that one back up and use the other line.

I understand trans cooling lines. The synthetic oil is a good addition. I
already have a trans cooler for the off roading that I do.

Jeff, how do you like your Tundra? I figure if my Tacoma won't handle
this,
I'll move up to one of those.
