    If you need help with wiring or installing that compressor, let me know buddy! Just did my twin a month or so ago, and it was a pita to try to make sense of everything

    The folks getting the D.A.P tune on their Tundras have to use premium afterwards. That's probably enough to make me not get the tune, when it's available for the '18s.

    Got the CB mounted up and the coax ran out back. I need to get more wire so I can run it up to the front. Where are y’all tapping into power for CBs? I wish I could get some workshop/evt manuals for this truck.

    Man, super late to this, but I was at that show. AC went out, so it was an absolute sauna. But Trivium was amazing - the opening bands were good too.

    Wouldn't you like to know!
    I've actually put in 21.3 gallons before when it ran out of gas as I was pulling into the pump lol. I think the light comes on when you have 4.5 gallons left or something like that. So you can actually go another 50+ miles once the light comes on...depending on lift, armor, etc...:D

    Sad to say I've ran the truck out of gas twice :anonymous:

    I have since adopted the Capt's rule. Once it's at a 1/4 tank I fill up.
