    I ordered mine from Hoover Toyota in Alabama. Trim was $139.55 and handle $61.19 with free shipping. Picked up the U-type nut, 1/4x20x1.5" Grade 8 bolt and washer for 69 cents. Hopefully be here soon-ish.

    I ordered mine from Sparks Toyota. My price paid was about the same.

    Awfully expensive plastic, but when you get into your 50's, any edge is necessary.

    Packed the truck with fishing gear and took the family out to a lake outside the cabin. Got two massive salmon and 12 rainbow trout. My oldest daughter got the biggest trout I’ve ever seen. 20” trout!

    'Cause we all know you don't build something and just stare at it, how'd she feel in comparison to the 2.5s on initial run?

    My local coffee run has a big G out and a large rail road crossing jump. I can say it’s significantly different than the 2.5s already. More planted and controlled but plush at the same time. Going to try and head out Sunday give it a shake down. We’ll see how much I have to turn the tubes etc but the valving should be damn close

    Getting old sucks lol. I was loading the shed debris from the teardown into a dump trailer today. Being in the heat all day doesn't help but I was telling my neighbor that I'm getting too old for this crap lol.

    Yeah, I don't need to pull it out, just lift it enough to get the harness fed through. God the "special" tapes are a pain in the ass in 90+ degree heat. o_Oo_O

    I bet crawling underneath the truck in hot weather to run your powered tailgate harness was “a blast” too. ;)

    I've had mine on both driver and passenger sides and my leg hasn't hit either. I'm 6'4" so I have a lot of leg.
