    IMG_1221.jpg IMG_1149.jpg IMG_7768.jpg Man, it’s been 2 yrs since I picked up my 23Pro. It now has 22,000 miles on it. I did all the mods I wanted the day after so I haven’t done much since. I had everything waiting before I got the truck. I put on a set of 35’s
    Go Rhino electric steps
    Gator roll up cover
    Tow hooks.
    Last yr put some 1” wheel spacers on.
    Love this thing. Can’t believe how many people still walk up to me and start talking about it. I came from two previous 2.5 gens but Toyota really made some big improvements with this truck.

    Sweet ride man. I assume you are running SpiderTrax 1" spacers? Did you have any rubbing with the 35's? Have to take off the mudflaps or do any fender liner trimming? I have the Eibach 1.5" lift springs up front so I was hoping to just be able to bolt them on and go with no modifications necessary.

    Thanks. I had no rubbing until I did the spacers. Then I had to trim out my mudflaps. I actually have spacers from Burger motorsports on there. They’ve been on for about a yr so far IMG_0432.jpg

    No rubbing in front of tire? Just on mudflaps? Pics of how you trimmed them?

    Mine will be 2 years old in 2 weeks. I've got 23K miles on it. I came from a 2015 1794.

    I'm not as enamored with my '23 as you are. There are some things I like, and other things not so much. I guess having a new truck isn't part of my identity like it was when I was younger, so I can look at them more objectively. Now, they are just a tool to get me from A to B and back.

    I never had rubbing on the front. I just trimmed off the piece of the mudflap that protrudes out. Then I pinned back the fabric with a plastic push in plug. Or you could just remove them altogether. IMG_1479.jpg

    Sorry to hear that. Besides worrying about the whole engine thing I’ve had zero issues. If I had 1 complaint it would be the screen not having an option to be split like in my old Platinum. But I have a 100k mile bumper to bumper so if something happens I’ll get it fixed. I don’t see myself keeping it that long anyway.

    My 24 just turned a year. Just a few add ons. Tonneau cover, removed badges, added the Tundra badge, added a dump tip to the stock muffler. Had a tig weld muffler. Had too much drone on the highway for my liking. It’s up for sale. Stock TRD 20’s and tires. 15K miles. Been changing the oil every 5K and have the dealer do the 10K. Gives me the opportunity to filter out the old oil for any metal shavings. Luckily there is non to be seen.

    No need to be sorry.

    I assume your truck has had the transmission and e-brake recalls, correct? For me, those were an "issue" because I'm over an hour from the dealership, and both recalls took over 3 hours to complete. A half day wasted both times. I've also had the infamous cracked seat panel replaced, and a faulty front camera replaced. 2 more half days wasted. That's 4 more trips to the dealership than I ever made with my 2015 in 8 years of ownership.

    I also have a whole list of little annoying 1st world design problems with my '23 that I won't bore you with.

    Anyway, glad you like your truck, and tell it happy birthday for me. :cool:

    Same boat as the OP and Matt. 2 yrs upcoming on 7/7 and 22,750 miles. No mechanical or plastics issues at all. Just the constant fuel gauge reset to full which hopefully the new TSB installed this week will fix. Also had the permanent fuel line done at same time. Still smile every day I climb in!!

    Did you have issues with the center caps on the Pro wheels with that spacer? I’m in the market for spacers for my 25 Pro.

    I noticed in one of your pics on the original post that the center cap wasn’t installed. Could be a pic from initial delivery but just wanted to make sure.

    Did you buy 2 sets of the same spacers from BMS for the front and rear?

    Yes. I bought 2 matching sets.
    And you were right. The pic without the center caps was pre delivery while it was on the lot.
