    I was going to suggest going into the service department and demanding a buy back from Toyota so you could get into a 3rd gen, but in your case that would be one hell of a downgrade

    34* here this morning...I finally broke down and turned on the heater when I got up at 3 am to help with the kiddo and it was 58* in the house...it is also garbage day, so I got to pick up poopsicles off the back lawn this morning too!

    This is the time of year when we can get 50+ degree temperature swings during the day. Supposed to be 70's again tomorrow...then back to the low 50's for highs by the weekend. I don't mind it being cool as long as it stays dry for a few days. I bought a new maple tree yesterday that I need to get planted and watered in today or tomorrow.

    i like pulling into the stealership once in a while to see what kind of markup they throw on dealer mods.

    3rd gens are nice.....on the inside

    Ever have a dealer offer 10% over NADA trade in price? I had that offer when I went to buy an oil filter and spark plugs at my local dealer :rofl:

    I want to say that @EatSleepTacos may have mentioned these on a prior post. I have not personally used them.

    Wish I could help. But the only tires I have run for any significant periods of time are BFG Rugged Fails and KO AT's.

    I think the truck came with the pep boys version. I barely had them on the truck at all, so I can't comment on how they drive

    Come to think of it, my old boss ran them on his 1st gen and raved about how they performed in all conditions amd how they were (not) wearing . He had put quite a few miles on them and they still looked new.
