    20%. Dark as fuck. You are an illegal alien with that much tint and you will get shot.
    35%. Legal in Nevada. Most likely you will be assumed to be an illegal alien in CA. Maybe not shot, but definitely beat with a stick.
    50%. Good compromise. Still illegal according to CVC, but most LEO's won't care...unless you are an illegal alien. In which case you will get a citation and possibly beat with a stick.
    85%. Pretty much a no brainer. No LEO will pull you over for 85%...and if you are an illegal alien, you'll get a $3000 bonus for your child's higher education.

    My old truck (98' Dodge Ram I inherited from my grandfather when he passed) was white so I like to think its a bit of honoring him with white. Plus I plan on doing a lot of overlanding in this so anything to help with pinstripping is nice. Almost went with mag, found a perfect manual off road but I held out and found the perfect white one in Reno.

    20% with OEM privacy glass in the rad windows is what I have and haven't had any issue with 34k mostly highway miles in CA. Once you start tinting the rear windows, 20% front windows get dark very quickly.

    Dude I've been seriously leaning towards a manual. It looks like a bunch of dealers have "my" truck in manual for like $4k cheaper than auto.

    I just don't want to get pulled over. So I'm leaning towards 35% up front and then just match whatever the camper has

    Can't say much about auto tacomas, all I've ever driven was like 5 miles one night on a test drive when I first considered a tacoma. But I can say the manual is so worth it for the entertainment factor. Makes every day driving more entertaining and adds a bit of sportiness feeling imo.

    Well, at least you're consistent. I've literally been waiting for it.

    I'm slowly leaning towards it, with an SC and all the fixings I'm throwing on, I could throw in a URD clutch as well for more fun and really smoke some tires

    Your area is easy to get pulled over in, as it's mainly the CHP who ticket for tint violations in my experience. I was pulled over for 35% fronts and my rears were 5% film over OEM privacy glass.

    Old job had fleet vehicles all with 15% and never had issues, even on a Peterbilt that ran the scales every day. Not a real high probability of a ticket with 35%, but rear tint really plays a huge part.

    My windows all match my shell window tint, so I am guessing it's 20% or 35% there also.

    God I'm so tempted to get a SC especially with them discontinuing production, but I can honestly say I really don't need it. I cruise in 6th flying over 17 every day and have done 80 to nevada and back with no power issues. I get plenty of get up and go and chirp my tires if I'm not careful in first.

    Supercharger is not a matter of need. It's a matter of want. And I fucking want it...in the Tundra.

    This is too true. But I want a lift, 285s, sliders, and a winch more. At least that's what I tell myself. Plus regular is cheaper so that's nice.

    That's why I'm buying all this stuff to put on a truck I don't have...that way I have it all to put on at the same time. And if push cones to shove and I don't end up with a new truck (absolutely worst case scenario) I'll do a 4x4 conversion and enjoy my old truck :)

    Never. Don't mean to cause drama here in a thread I only seldomly post in. I imagine in the morning things will be cleaned up and addressed as needed.
