    Haven't received anything fwiw. Wasn't expecting anything super quickly, just adding to the data. Ordered an aluminum engine, steel tank (38) with straps.

    I'm upgrading my A- to a A+! A couple members didn't like how it went down. All things considered......a successful GB. The very few complaints for not following or being out of town quite frankly doesn't cut it. We are all busy with life situations. Just sayin...

    Agree fully, I saw an opportunity to save some $ and followed intently. If all it takes is my attention and patience for a 20% discount, count me in for future group buys on this forum. The recent Dirty Deeds group buy was also a huge success. The more of these that get great results the more companies will be willing to work with us as a collective, it’s a win win.

    I'm not done.............. @Rica25 started "this". By the way @Rica25......WELL DONE! This was not an official group buy, yes it started out as "interested" but developed into a hell of a lot of sales for RCI and a crazy 20% OFF DISCOUNT!!!! ...but not good enough for some members...................."What if I only want one skid...????" After a few members cried about that...................RCI went further..............15% off a single skid!!!! RCI DID NOT HAVE TO DO THAT. All I have say to the complainers............GET OVER IT!!!! RCI has a Black Friday sale....Hello....a month from now, yet RCI came through a month early. RCI responded to @Rica25's thread.....and with some help from Sean, got RCI to do the the 15% off. I'm quite frankly embarrassed about a few posts from some forum members about this. My 2cents.............

    @Rica25 thanks for your efforts, I think it worked out great. Definitely a success for the members, hopefully it was worth it for RCI as well.

    @RCIoffroad thank you for allowing us Tundras.com members to get in on such a great deal for your amazing products.

    Not to mention RCI was gracious enough to allow me to order with the GB discount a day after it closed.

    This RCI engine skid is so beautiful I feel bad putting it under the truck!

    FYI - I took the whole "sale starts after midnight" thing seriously.

    Thanks again to OP and RCI!

    Got mine delivered today, although i had ordered a week before group buy was discussed. Sent a couple private messages to RCI in hopes they would honor my purchase with group buy discount, but no reply. Ill just leave it at that, rather than be negative. Im sure yall can guess how i feel about it.

    Ur upset because you offered before the GB and wanted it honored?

    On a related note, they don’t have someone appointed to SM— yet

    Sorry about that Lucas, we didn't even have plans for the group buy when your order was placed on Sept. 29th but my apologies for not having seen your PM. I went ahead and gave you 10% back on your order as a package discount for buying the full kit. I hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions!

    Just picked up the engine, transfer case, and fuel tank skid plates this afternoon. Top notch craftsmanship! Thank you RCI. I should have them mounted up some time Friday afternoon.
