    Not a terrible idea, since the black paint scratches like nobody's business....

    Yeah and I am getting where I don't like to wax or seal the paint anymore. I have a tonneau cover on my bed so I have to get on a step stool to wash the top of the cab which sucks also. If it was Line-X I could just use the soapy brush at the car wash on it and rinse it off without using the step stool.

    Love it! But is it more red or orange? Each pic I see leans towards orange but everyone calls it red.

    Washed my truck and installed my new CB mount...of course my current coax isn't long enough for the new locale, so hopefully have a complete install next weekend.

    That's what I read, I just wasn't sure if it was for the 2015 or 2016 versions. Let me know how the install goes!

    More red than orange. It's not fire engine or Ferrari red, but I wouldn't ever call it orange.

    Had a new set of TRD wheel's put on. Notice the back passenger side wheel sticking out about a inch more to an inch and a half more than the rest of the wheels. Measure the truck bed to cab and the truck bed is off. I'll be talking to the dealer tomorrow. Anybody else ever have this problem.

    I have a 3' right now but it's currently located on my drivers side in the front on a ditch light mount. I'm gonna move that antenna back to the tailgate and see how it goes. I may upgrade to a 5' or larger depending.

    I have the same issue, I asked the dealer about it at my 10k service and the knucklehead tech told me it was the cab not the bed. I asked how he figured that out and how the cab being misaligned affected the amount of rear tire sticking out on both sides... Crickets... told him not to worry about it I'll take care of it. Haven't had a chance to do it yet but I'll loosen the bolts and make it right.
