    Semper Fi. 2024 Tundra Limited....questions for ya!

    Nowhere near as many people have seen this movie (The Final Countdown) and I like the F-14 flying in this much better. Lots of backstory too, including a prank the demo Naval Aviators pulled on the female lead, Katherine Ross.

    Damn. Thought I had it. (Pickup size growth)

    Maybe, but I think this powertrain application is TNGA-F specific and both the Tundra and LC are on it. This is also the reason the Sequoia lost it's IRS this generation, global platform rationalization.

    Semper Fi. 2024 Tundra Limited....questions for ya!

    Got to see the original movie over at Incirlik AB in '86. We were acting as the 440 Tactical Fighter Med at the time and it was the first showing for most all of us...And later in the evening. The theater was filled with F-16A jocks and the comments during the flying scenes were priceless...
