Had to go check prices today...looked at a new SR5 Tundra with Crewmax and the towing package with brake controller... Decent truck...power everything...XM...touch screen, back up camera, comfortable cloth seats...offered it to me for 35k... Comfortable common man truck...something I appreciate. no way I am doubling the price for fancy stitches.
Thanks!

Looked at a '16 Tundra Double Cab with 6 1/2 ft. bed, 5.7 engine, 4.30 rear axle, 6 speed and tow package. Only 'bells & whistles' were the integrated brake controller and rear view camera for $36400. Not bad in the grand scheme of things, but the DW wasn't impressed :B I'm still struggling with the idea of a 'sealed' transmission, no dipstick, no fluid maintenance according to the salesman. REALLY ??? :h And you tow with it???? :E Not at all comfortable with that concept......
I purchased a 2016 tundra and I too was concerned about no dipstick, a lot of manufactures are going that route. I searched and searched and couldn't find and real creditable problems with the transmissions in the tundras. FWIW Mine is a 2016 double cab sr5 with the sr5 upgrade package 4x4 with spray in bed liner and 38 gal tank for 37000 otd
