    new Tundra color

    Looking for either silver or white. Low maintenance and hiding minor scratches is important. Toyota white is a single stage with no clearcoat. That worries me some. If the white needs paint repair the paint shops will clear as they don't do single stage. Thinking paint won't match.

    Benificial for an auto tranny??

    Guys I was wondering, is there any advantage or disadvantage to bumping an auto tranny into neutral while at a stop light or stopped in heavy traffic? I ask because I find myself doing it often at stoplights and not having to use as much brake force to keep the vehicle at a stand still. Thx!
