    TIRES ARE HERE!! and i dont even have the truck yet LOL... The good news is my truck was built 12/5 with a port processing date of 12/6. Hopefully the rail departure and shipment to dealership will update soon!!! I am dying to start posting things @CavalryTaco ughhhhh. Also ordered a bed cover and some other parts that you guys will see soon!

    Yeah so what youre dealing with is dealerships wanting to take your money before they even know what is being allocated. I would be careful of doing that because they cant exactly guarantee when or even if they can get you one for sure. Typically at my store we will tell someone what position they are in line for the allocation queue. If they really have one reserved and allocated already for you they should have a price and build sheet!

    Wow so excited to see these pictures! I was unsure about the graphics package when i built mine but now i am glad i did!!

    Today was a very good day. Southern California. MSRP. No 5 or 10k markup. It can be done. On the way to pick up my truck, the Temecula dealer called and tried to sell me their TRD Pro. For those looking....one is available in Temecula. Got mine in National City.

    i know we're talking about tires, but what's funny is that bicycle wheels cost more than truck wheels. a mid-grade mountain bike wheel set is around $600. a low end set is around $300-400 for 2 wheels which puts them in line with pricing on the 4runner pro wheels that everyone is putting on their tacos.

    Dang! Pound for pound, the TRD Pro is a bargain!....I thought my mountain bike was expensive at 1800 bucks. Seems I was mistaken. Cool bike though.

    Also, my first serious mountain bike was a trek y-33 from the late 90’s I saved up for and bought used when I was 18. Love some trek carbon fiber.

    You’re looking at a 10,500.00 bike. Trek Speed Concepts are EXPENSIVE! lol The entire bike is carbon fiber. Frame, bars, forks, wheels...

    What’s it weigh? Not much I imagine. Also, what’s the bump on the top tube? Just to help with aerodynamics or something else?

    Weighs 19 pounds. That’s an aerodynamic storage box. Keep gels, salt tabs or other nutrition. The bike leg of an Ironman is 112 miles. You swim 2.4 miles prior to the bike. Then you have a little 26.2 mile run to do after the bike leg. Nutrition and taking in calories is HIGHLY important on the bike.

    Not at all. Just pulls right out. It’s very narrow. It’s an aero bottle.
