    I’m only the second owner of the truck and the previous owner most likely purchased the truck in NC as well.

    You simply can’t find a video that’ll do any exhaust system justice. That said, I cant wait to move on a 10” myself. All of these glowing reviews are awesome to see.

    A lot. See my channel for all installs/mods!
    Yes sir, made sure to do it cause I wasn’t sure I was going to keep the flares on long term (I like the look better without but got sick of kicking up rocks at side of truck)...showed how to do it on my install video, I’m actually going to take them off in another month or 2 and make a follow up video to show if the paint protection film worked or not

    Thats what I’ve learned from this experience. My neighbor likes how it sounds over his TRD duals too! I almost bought the Rough Country dual system because of cost and I wanted duals. I’m so glad I didn’t. I just drove to work no was smiling the whole time!

    Worth every penny in my opinion. The material is 10x tougher and they look much better. As soon as I get another truck I’m going to replace the oem immediately.

    I bought directly from RAD. Took about 3 weeks to get but I spoke with the owner. Super nice guy. Highly recommend

    How well do these work? I just replaced my apparently stock blades with a set of Bosch beam style blades and these things skip all over the window. I’m less than impressed with them to say the least.

    I test drove mine without the resonator at varying highway speeds and gears, and decided that the noise from the drone was a little much (I also cut my pipe just after the axle). So I installed the resonator, and to me it sounds much more refined with the resonator without losing any volume when you want it... and the drone with the cruise set at any speed or gear (when towing) is no louder than stock.

    Just tried them this am with some drizzle. Just how wipers should work. Like oem and uniform like a new truck. I think this was the first replacement for my truck 52k(2nd owner).

    Do tell, how did you accomplish this, I need to do this as well. Still have shake with mine.

    Exact reason I got the yellow as well. They worked great for me last winter. In the rain as well on dark roads.

    Has anyone had any problems with the ESP storage where the carpet becomes loose or the edges of it curl up because of heat and sun? I'm worried that over time, that carpet will become loose around the edges and you'll see it. Any other problems people have had with it over time (like more than a couple of years)?

    I’ve had mine for five years and in the Texas sun and heat zero problems. It has a 1-1/2 lip that covers the carpet from where you cut to fit so it’s got quite a bit of coverage. It’s a Must for Crewmax owners.

    The carpet is formed and has a somewhat rigid backing on it. It should be good!

    I'm planning to get the ESP 3 bin storage unit but I'm always hesitant to cut into carpet. I don't like the thought of it but I also realize I need the storage space and from the looks of it, it's quite nice looking.

    As indicated by @kittyhawk, there is a huge overlap from the edge of the ESP plastic to where the cut is. Its a not an issue at all.

    That looks great.
    I like the red PRO emblem.....nice touch.
    I don't have a PRO but I'm sure others are going to ask for a link to that.
