    Yes. I'm averaging between 14-15 mpg indicated. After adjusting for tire size, it's closer to 15-16 mpg.

    It's time for an update! Actually it's past time for an update. I've put the full build details as the truck stands on the original post.

    The most obvious change to the truck is that it's now blue. I had it wrapped by Adventure Motors, in Kansas City. This is the third truck they've wrapped, and by far the brightest (the other two were quicksand and a close match to cavalry blue). The main wrap was Avery's light blue, which is a really close match to blue flame, as seen on the Rav4 and Corolla. We did satin black for the wing mirrors, chrome window trim, chrome rear bumper, and the B pillars.

    So far the wrap has held up well to limited abuse. Some scratchy scrub in California and a lot of close trees in British Columbia weren't able to damage it. It actually seems to be affected less than the paint underneath was.

    We've also kitted it out with all of CBI's current offerings. The only things left are rear bumper and a fuel tank skid plate.

    On the front is their Baja front bumper. The bumper is made up of two main parts, which helps make the install easier. The winch cradle goes on first, allowing you to attach and wire up the winch before putting the main outer part on. This saves you having to lift everything all at once and then trying to wire up the winch from inside the bumper. To fit the outer bumper you will need to do some cutting!

    The bumper is designed to retain all of the factory sensors and camera. The radar works perfectly, but I did have problems with the parking sensors on this prototype; apparently they were pointed down a little too far, so were triggering by the ground. I had the active air dam on this truck too, so have a warning that pops up on the dash because it had to be removed. Apparently CBI has a fix for that coming very soon.

    DSC09864.jpg

    The winch is the Warn Evo VR12s, and I've added Factor 55's Ultrahook in orange... It matches the theme! The bumper takes a 30" light bar in the middle, then two pods on either side. I traded in my Heretic Studio lights and the bumper cutoff (they're going to use it as a display) and add their amber light bar, two amber Quattros, and two amber BA-2s. It's been really nice having the winch, since I can now more comfortably travel alone or take on snow. In just 5 weeks I used it 6 times. Two of those were for me getting stuck in snow on one trail!



    One of the biggest problems I had moving from a 4Runner to the Tundra was the breakover angle - I was terrified of bashing up the rocker panels. To protect them, I finally have some rock sliders from CBI! The sliders are bolt on. A few bolts go directly into threaded holes on the frame, and a few more run down the back of the frame rail. Underneath we added the Overland skid plate set, which completely covers it from the front through to the transfer case.

    On the back we switched out the CBI cross bars for their roof rack height bed rack. That finally allowed me to move the entire tent forward, so it no longer looks goofy hanging off the back. The bed rack is solid, and I really like all of the accessory attachment points on the sides. One of the small details that helps are small hoops along the base inside the bed which are perfect for ratchet straps. Because the bed rack is the exact same height as the roof rack, anything you want to overhang them both will need to be raised up to allow for bed flex. I ended up flipping the cross bars on the bed rack to raise the tent a little. Unfortunately the crossbars are fractionally too deep for the iKamper V2 and V3 mounts, so I had to buy the V1 mounts from a local store. I let CBI know, so hopefully that's something they revise in the future.

    DSC09854.jpg

    Finally, there's the CBI ditch light brackets. So far all of the ditch light brackets I've seen for the Tundra look like someone took some U brackets, cut the windshield trim, and slapped a massive price tag on them. These are the first ones I've seen that look like they're designed for the Tundra. They bolt in easily to the hood bolts and take a couple of minutes to install.

    Probably the most subtle change was the suspension, but I'm really glad to have it done.

    Originally I had the Westcott Designs 3/1" lift, but with the weight I added and rough roads I travel, it just didn't cut it. There's still not a lot available specifically for the '22 Tundra, and I was after some high quality suspension components. Thankfully, Adventure Motors had it figured out. They found components from other lift kits currently available that worked perfectly with the Tundra, paired them with some in-house designed drop brackets for the sway bar and some brake line extensions, and created their own kit.

    The front is made up of Fox 2.0 coil overs with Pro Comp UCAs, and the rear has Dobinsons MRRs and Dobinsons panhard bar. The springs were all selected for the extra weight that I've added, and the ride is SO much better! I don't bother airing down as much anymore, and love the adjustable rear shocks. They make a big difference - I soften them for rough roads, then tighten them up for paved roads. The only thing I'd change is to add the adjustable front when it's available.

    Nice build. Tastefully done but looks very capable.

    Dont use the mounts for iKamper, use a carriage bolt and drill through the rack to lock nuts. It’s more secure than mounts and lowers the height of the tent down to the aluminum extrusions rails. I used 4 plates that the carriage bolts sat in to grip the iKamper extrusions. Since you bought the 1.0 mounts you can reuse one side of those plates

    I'm not sure I understand. It already sits directly on the tent's aluminum extrusion rails, but the bolts currently go down either side of the rack's cross bars rather than through it.

    I guess more of a valid point if you hadn’t already purchased the V1 mount. Those mounts require both sides to stay tight and mine came loose so I opted for the single larger bolt as I mentioned.

    I guess if you had the digital rear view mirror then the bed rack at roof height would block the rear view mirror camera (or is it mounted on the tailgate)?

    I believe it would block it.

    The regular mirror works fine, but the camera for the digital is up by the brake light.

    You just tighten the winch down to hold it.

    Thanks!

    I’m not sure. I should have it weighed. It’s probably approaching GVWR.
