    I got enough coverage with my rim offset. If you are thinking about using spacers, then go with the Bushwackers. Pretty sure the Bwackers give you at least 3+ inch coverage. By the way I got this for $99.95 at my local ACE when I went to get four more 10mm screws for my flares. Not fancy, but within my budget. Find a better price and let me know. I've got a 25 gallon but not too camping friendly. I'm going to look for a smaller generator today. The generator I currently have is just too freakin heavy.

    It wouldn't surprise me if this isn't found with a few other different brand names on it.

    In my experience, the toppers generally don't look as good on DC's. Yours is one of the few that looks damn sharp @matluth.

    I just found out my one of my nieces (18 or 19) is in CHOC. Children's' Hospital of Orange County. She was having some issues controlling one of her arms. An MRI revealed a brain tumor which was removed yesterday. CHOC is probably the best facility on the planet for this. Crap.......I have to make some phone calls now.

    She'll be out of CHOC in a couple of days. There will be obviously a rigorous chemo treatment to follow over several months. Only the beginning. I realize that I actually have no problems in life. Only day to day BS. My niece, Charlotte is 13. Thought she was older. Needless to say, my VACA plans have changed.

    Finally got the straight scoop from my brother. Small tumor removed. Doc thinks tumor is benign. Biopsy tissue sent to Mayo Clinic for confirmation.

    Doc "thinks" it's benign. Won't know 100% until next week after Mayo results get back. If it was serious, the biopsy could have been done in a few hours. I only know this from my friend Bill, who has gone thru this, is still going thru it. :amen:

    Thanks D Dog. We are hoping the Doc is correct that the tumor is benign. Can't be confirmed until Mayo biopsy results get back. We (Tundras.com) aren't a club per se. We are a community though. There are a couple of local CO Toyota clubs that I'm considering joining. They actually have organized scheduled monthly meetings and get togethers where they actually do good things. Not just beer swilling get togethers a couple of times a year where the main topic may be what are "real" offroad shocks, but actual trail clean ups and the occasional blood drives, etc. Now that summer is neigh, I'm seriously going to join one. I highly recommend that you check out what Toyota 4X4 clubs may be near you and sign up. These 4X4 clubs provide a good way to donate blood, community service, etc., and at the same time, make us 4 wheelers look good, and still have a good time afterwards....:jellydance::jellydance::jellydance::jellydance:(with a couple of cookies of course due to lack of blood platelets...heh heh)

    You read my mind. They accept Tundra owners, even though mostly 4 runners/FJ's and the like.

    The best Tundra forum period. No other Tundra forum comes close to this one. We are a "club" of sorts. A 50 state club. I think all states are represented here. I know we have Delaware and Rhode Island for sure............

    My cable guy is a member. Has a 4 runner. I think I posted a pic of his runner here on a previous page. Actually invited me to join last summer. Put it off until now I guess.

    Scary, surrounded by FJ's and runners. But then again, I'd be the BDOC.

    2019 TRD Sport CM 5.7L 4X4
    Some Mods :) See build thread for details
    I agree with you guys on this forum. Best one out there. I am a little biased as I was a part of the beta before going live, became a mod quick and helped build content as well as community.
    I came from Tacomaworld which is the best Tacoma forum out there too (also Bobs forum). Made good friends from there like @Sean266 and @LOTSOFTOYS and others that will hopefully make there way to this forum.
    As this group grows and grows we will start seeing more discussions within your state. Get together's and community events. There is no reason why we can't group together with other outside forum groups, clubs, etc for these get together's/events.

    You just really nailed it in the head, Brian. Of course being a moderator here, You and Sean have to keep us on track. I'm guilty as charged from straying off topic at times. It's not easy . Not necessarily a bad thing. Of course it is good to keep "us" focused on the particular thread topic. When "we" do go astray from a particular thread topic, why not immediately bounce "us" to a catch all (moderated of course) thread? The plus side on this is that at least we keep a side discussion going on without losing track of what the original thread was all about. We all have different egos here. It's easy to post your opinion "ego", especially from some of us who have been here for some time. One thing for sure is for this forum to be the best, we have to realize that we all have Tundras. That's the common thread between all of us. We all have different budgets, needs, etc. This forum would suck without @jberry813 for example, over the top at times, anal, but his opinion/experience is good to go. Knows what he is talking about. (@jberry813 , you owe me a beer for that prop..) I'm over the top too at times. I don't know everything. Don't pretend to. You learn something new every day. I only know what I know and counting. I'm opinionated. Who isn't? This forum has a great administrator, @Bob, (famous for TacomaWorld.com) who stays in the background for the most part. We have two excellent moderators, @Sean266 and @csuviper. If "you " are still lurking here, stop wasting your time and sign on. When you do sign up, you'd better chime in.( Remember to post pics and read the regs. ( I've never violated the regs.. Ohhhh.. wait...)

    Pfft. This is Tundras.com. Everything goes off track as planned!

    Thank you for your kind words!

    Wouldn't have it any other way. (Who needs a plan B anyways??)
