    LMFAO!!! That is exactly how mine came out. I ordered many parts from Geno's Garage, and the 370.00 dash kit was one of them.

    I literally almost fell out of my seat at work.

    At that mileage, if things were not properly serviced you would have been like this guy..my wife put me on a repair bill budget of 2500.00 per year.

    Ball joints, steering box, u-joints, injectors where probably getting weak, lift pump was probably gone, 48RE was probably getting weak. The real issue on 03 Cummins motors was the valve seats on the head. Once you hit 1250* egt's, you had to back down. All other years you could go 1350*F continuously without issues.

    All that was way over my head. LOL

    I'm sure if I had been able to find a solid mechanic to work on it then it could have been a great truck for years, but I have terrible people luck.

    We did pull hard with them. This was in Moab, UT. We would rent a ranch to ourselves and enjoy the week outside of all the BS in town.

    The day I realized a Tundra was coming. I towed my Jeep over to the dealership with the dodge, unhooked and tested this one out. Two years later I had my 2012 in my driveway.

    I was able to try out the new 2022 at the NASCAR track in Charlotte. Toyota was sponsoring the event like they often do.
    The electric motor from a dead stop to go is tow/haul mode times ten. I got the feeling Toyota wanted to compete with the Tesla truck. I only got to do two laps around the Charlotte speedway but they were the most exciting twenty seconds of my life.
    Toyota had a Pro model of course and it was on Fox long travel suspension with 37 inch super swampers. This brought the MPG down to about 32mpg in the straight aways. I rolled the windows down on the second lap and dropped the tailgate and told @Squatting Pigeon to get out. Once that was done, MPGs went to 41 MPG.

    The SLT and LTZ trims often had leather wrapped. Both the truck I used at work at my personal 2011 Sierra were SLT and had leather wrapped wheels. My '05 Tundra has a urethane wheel and I love it. Still looks brand new.

    Let me get them. I do have them. Have to get them from passengers phone as I was driving and the embankments are really steep. So going 185mph in the turns and trying to take a pic was not the safest thing. But the passenger has some. I will post when they send them to me.

    I was going to say your company was spoiling you if they gave you an SLT until I remembered that one of the vehicles my group is leasing is a Midnight edition Tahoe with the 6.2. :anonymous:

    Was already planning how I would justify trading in a Tundra with only 3,000 miles. I'd jump on a diesel in a heartbeat.

    Then I clicked...UGH

    She was with me. She knows the power of the 2022 and said I’m no match for it’s Porsche like take off capabilities.

    That's what I hear. Plus, they have figured out how to run longer on an exhaust fluid made of synthetic unicorn farts. Three times more range than what Blu Def provided.

    My brother always had to have a WT because he needed a long box for his quad.

    Someone at his company screwed up this year and got V6 trucks because they didn't realize the long box is still available with a V8. :facepalm:
