    just got my 08 after waiting 3 months. it's pretty nice. loving the mpg's. when i picked it up i actually traded in my 06 tundra double cab for an 08 tundra crew max with the 5.7 litre engine. my wife thinks i'm nuts, but i got a great trade and they knocked 7grand off the price of the 08 crew max. too good of a deal to pass up. i drive the prius around town and to work. i'm getting around 47 mpg. i'm getting around 12 mpg in the truck.

    Welcome! The wife probably thought the truck trade was nutty. :)

    My wife had her doubts, too. She wouldn't drive it for three weeks (technophobia). Now I can't get it away from her and I'm often stuck driving the Accord (which is not a bad car).
