    Since we're on links, how about the top console tray? Does it come with the non slip padding in each section? Btw like the stickers, especially the 1 ur not sure about on scoop. Imo looks like it belongs there. That's coming from a guy who has not 1 sticker on outside his truck, I hide all mine in the bed on my swing box.

    Truck already came with sway bars front and back (TRD Sport). The long box is the step bars. Big flat box is a tonneau cover.

    I have not had it long enough to give a honest opinion, but the slot for the power cord is the reason I picked that one. It seems to be sturdy enough and the rubber pads inside are very soft and keep things from sliding or rattling.

    Good eye. My twins named all of our vehicles. That flag is a matte black. Thought it showed up just enough for me.

    Just fyi, don't know if u know or Not? There's a couple positions that the lights can be inserted and set to not provide optimal pattern. Even if they are set correctly in place, a simple turn to make up down and down up can be a huge difference. Even if inserted and set in place correctly, if the correct side is not facing up and down it will throw off your pattern horribly. I mean they're not retro projection hids. However if set correctly and with correct side up and down I've found them to throw a pretty good beam pattern. Especially low beams are great, highs leave some to be desired and definitely doesn't have a perfect cutoff, but the stardust is useable light. For me it's no deal at all. I use gtr and Baja amber sports in wide for lows, and leave tthem on but hit my switch for my Baja designs s8 lightbar for highs. I've found these when paired with the sports offer an insane amount of light. With the s8 it gets even insanererererer.

    Point being ifvu think the pattern is bad, try flipping north and south, it makes big difference. If they are not set right with correct side up they will not impress.

    Had the 4600-ectomy done today. Replaced with:

    6112s at 2.5”
    5100s
    Toytec shackle at 1” (this may change to 1.5 soon though)

    Ride difference is huge.

    Thanks to everyone here for sharing feedback, examples, and experience. Y’all taught me a ton.

    Next up: tires

    My brother in law spilled Dunkin donut coffee all over back seat the lid wasn’t on right, I nearly blew a gasket but pumped the breaks being my wife was in the front seat! But after we dropped him off I looked at wife and said Is he stupid, wrong thing to say on my part, :argue:

    Though it cleaned up good it smelt like coffee for a few day’s

    I don’t know if it’s just me here but I baby the crap out of my Tundra!

    No, you are not alone.

    I gave my wife a class how to properly eat crackers in my truck without making a mess. Chocolate, ice cream or fast food (I hate the odor) isn't allowed in my truck. All my dash vents are turned at a 45 degree angle, I let her adjust them on trips though. My front seats are set identical. I like to have everything symmetrical. I took me over an hour to put my Mx4 cover on because I spent a lot of time measuring and used a carpenter's square, it is installed perfectly though. I use my finger nails to prevent smudges on my touch screen.

    How is that for OCD, I guess 32 military service, past 14 as a Warrant Officer teaches you attention to detail.

    1st off, Thank you for your service! :oldglory:

    I can’t stop laughing, that is so me, my wife and daughter act like I am mental when I see them get in the truck and watch them with as I drive cups in their hands like my eyes are lasers fixed on them! I guess I contribute that to my military service as well! I am a bit like rain man as well gotta have certain things a certain way! Daughter just last night said what are you autistic and with your rainman sneakers can’t yiu buy any other color or style , same ones for years at least I get them new

    She had me lmao any way sorry for long post, just kinda ironic!


    :cheers:
