    Ah I gotcha my misunderstanding I thought you meant why didn’t I go with something cheaper. Originally looked at rough country lifts, then looked at the Bilstein 5100’s with the OME coils, but settled on the Toytec/Eibach combo. A Toytec rep on here talked me into it and I read some good reviews on their products. It’s a price that I can afford and install myself and will suit my weekend warrior off-roading trips without breaking the bank and allowing me to use other funding towards other upgrades. With Eibach coilovers in the front (pre-assembled was a plus) and adjustable struts to counter any spring sag that will happen over time, plus Toytec Boss Shocks in the rear seemed like an excellent build for around $800.

    It's their job to talk you into buying their product... :eek: js.
    Just make sure you research everything and be happy with your purchase. :thumbsup:

    Kings, ADS, etc are great, but for the large majority of what we have here they are easy overkill.

    My point was pay once, cry once and don’t let a company sales rep talk you into buying their product...

    Well I approached them and asked them questions about their lift. But I did research and am still happy with my choice. The Bilstein lift is about a similar price and comes unassembled. I’m happy with my choice

    I've had a Toytec lift on a first gen in the past. It wasn't bad. It didn't have the greatest on-road ride quality either.

    I helped @Greg3492 put a nice TRD Bilstein kit on his truck about a month ago. If I was going for a budget lift that is definitely the kit I'd go for. $684 + rear springs

    Yeah they sit pretty tight in there. There is straps that go around the head rests that you can tighten. I bought a $20 one from Amazon. Looking back I would have rather spent a little more and got a higher quality one. I also did not get the actual one in the link. I got one without door protection. My dog doesn't move around when driving so its not a big deal. The zipper (between the passenger and driver seat) however, is garbage. It does it's job so I'm fine with it.

    Thanks Murph! They do use the dual cards. I'll be looking to make a purchase in a month or two so I'm shopping around. Features on this one like Wifi, NFC, dual cards, weather sealed body are what I'm looking for. Best Buy has a deal with 2 lenses and bag. Although the bag I will be using will be one that fits in my backpack that is waterproof for our motorcycle rides. Basically I'll be using this for motorcycle, pet, scenery and family photos. I would like to capture some time lapse from time to time as well so the interval timer shooting will come in handy on the D7200 although I'm sure this is available on other cameras as well. There were some negative reviews on various sites but not that many. Overwhelmingly it has received good reviews. I think the negative marks were folks that didn't know how to operate it and were just frustrated. Thanks for taking the time to give me your opinion. I think I do pretty good with what I capture with my cellphone on instagram so I'm excited as to what I could be capturing with a high quality camera. Maybe even make some side money. :thumbsup:

    How does one delete conversations out of the inbox?

    I can select them, but do not see a "delete" option.

    Try leaving the conversation, after you check the box (other actions).
