    I sold mine for $200 I think. Dealer markup is ridiculous for a piece of aluminum.............I just figured if someone else could use them, then great. Not trying to screw anyone and make a bunch of cash.

    50% off retail is hardly screwing anyone. I don't have any skin in the game but it's not like people are forced to purchase. Free market will decide if the pricing is fair.

    I agree, Screwing someone may have been wrong word to use, just saying what I sold mine for. Once I took them off to sell I saw they were not worth very much in my opinion. The predator steps are thin aluminum, not sure on the other Toyota steps.

    Like, so many.
    Of course they are thin aluminum. They aren't sliders. I wouldn't want them to be heavy.

    I think people that do not know any better think they can be used as sliders...............they quickly realize they are worthless for that.

    i was just curious, my thoughts on all of them as they are worthless bolt ons as stated above. i just hope people arent actually buying them. my buddy just got a 2017 SR5, came with the sharks. i told him looney tunes is buying em for 400$ on tacoma world so throw em up asap.
