Hello new friends! My Tundra was totaled when I wasn't even in it. I was devastated because I loved her so much and I had no car payment. It was a toss up between a new Tundra and the R1T. I quickly learned I did not love the T so I test drove the S. After a few days of deep thinking and a solid pros / cons exercise I went from an ICE truck and no car payment to an E SUV with a ridiculous car payment. I am having thoughts....

  1. The Tundra changed how their backseat works and I wasn't going to be able to get all of my dogs happily in the crew cab anymore. They are certain their comfort is worth 100k
  2. I was at a gas station with my rental and since my brain knew it was on the verge of getting a Rivian, it really hated being at the gas station
  3. My partner has a 9 year old Tesla and I am old enough to be freaked out about having two EVs. I'm thinking about getting a beater ICE truck but he thinks I'm ridiculous
  4. I've read the threads and I, too, am really bummed about not having CarPlay. I'm thinking about getting one of those after market EV Sportline screens

Thank you for letting me yammer on. Every one of those statements is that of a first world, entitled asshole, so here I am on Reddit.
