    Well, after a year of looking I finally pulled the trigger on a 2012 DCLB TRD Sport in MGM. I pick it up tomorrow night, and can't wait. I'll miss the gas mileage of my Mazda3 but I'll be glad to have a truck. First thing I'm getting is a roll-up tonneau cover... I think I'm going to order an Access LE from Luke at Truck Alterations. I like the Truxedo Lo Pro QT because it sits more flush, but I don't like how you lose the use of the tie down rail. Thoughts?

    I'm not going for the extended warranty, but my only question is about undercoating? I live in the Northeast, and we have rough winters and lots of salt. Is it worth getting it undercoated by Ziebart or should I forgo that and just do yearly maintenance on the frame/undercarriage myself? Please give me your thoughts on this. I undercoated my Mazda but I've read on here where a lot of folks are against it.

    Thanks!

    Thanks! I see you're up north... did you undercoat it? If I do it it will be after the fact and not by the dealer.
