Inferno Thread

It was $34,400. I had reached out to several dealers and Truecar and this was the best price. I really wanted a moonroof and would need to go with the premium package on 2018 which would have been much more. Let us know what you end up finding it for. GL!

 

Great price!

 

For me, it was between the Undercover Ridgelander and the Diamondback. I went with the Diamondback and am extremely pleased. It's a little heavy, but easy enough to take apart when needed. Technically, only 4 bolts holding it on (plus locking mechanisms).

For me, I wanted something extremely secure under it with the ability to place things below and on top of it. The Heavy Duty version can hold 2 ATVs...I only needed the SE. Solid product, but price is comparable ($1600 vs standard $800 for most other tonneaus.

 

Can't beat the stregth/security of that Diamondback!!

 

If you want something cheaper, go with a hard tonneau and attach the fork mounts to the front of it like this:





Or you can do like this guy did in post #3 of this thread:

I want to be able to access the cargo area without removing the bike, so i think this option is a no go for me.

 

I see.

How many bikes do you plan on hauling?

And don't forget there is always the tail hitch as an option:




This last one I found is for @orion808

 

I will usually haul two, sometimes three. Im not a fan of trailer hitch racks.

 

The one I'm looking at has an MSRP of $35,602. It's a 6-speed manual, TRD Sport. Out the door with tax, title, and license, they're offering $31,500. That's around $29,500 if my math is correct, so it sounds like a decent deal. Unfortunately, no special financing available, which is a bummer.

 

That sounds like a great deal. The MSRP on mine was over $38k with the options. Jump on it.

 

Any idea on what mount that is? Assume it's just drilled through the Diamondback. Hard to see with the lighting.

I need to get out more, and have been considering getting back into biking some trails here in FL. I know the wife would take to it as a work out method.

 

I'm not a fan of hitch mount either...especially if you have an expensive bike or two.

One last option I've seen a few times now. It's a hard/retractable cover that rolls back into a box near the cab. It has integrated tracks so that you can easily add bars to it whenever you want. The retractable cover can be rolled opened even if you have the bars on and loaded up.

Yeah, that’s super sexy, but I’m not willing to give up 15” of bed space for the roll up.

 

Bought a prinsu and a bedside molle panel from caliraised. now the wait....

 

“But plan to keep it mostly stuck” famous last words of 1/2 the TW members !!
The rest of us were honest with ourself’s and took out second mortgages up front !!

 

I put this roof rack on today. You guys with them inspired me!





I'll get some better pics once I wash it tomorrow.

 

Thanks everyone!

Since this is an Inferno thread, random epic for the hell of it...

 

Got the sliders on

 

Used the Rustoleum - Satin Paprika paint others discovered. Thanks! Changing over to LED interior lighting, Question, have seen the postings using 31mm or 30mm Festoon for dome light, do tabs need to be bent to use the 31MM? or will they be tight or pop out? I Already replaced the map lights, used Yorkim T10.
