Toyota and TRD," Gilliland said. " Moving up into the top levels of NASCAR is going to be a learning experience, but I know that I ' m getting behind the wheel of fast Tundras and with the staff that they have in place at KBM and the knowledge that Kyle can pass along I ' m going to learn a lot and continue to grow as a driver.”
Gilliland joins owner-driver Busch( five races) as part of the multi-driver lineup that will compete behind the wheel of the No. 51 Tundra in 2017. Announcements for the drivers who will complete the remainder of the schedule are forthcoming.
