    That is not what they are fore! Damit don't you pay attention they are called sliders because the grocery carts can just slide along them instead of hitting your truck DUH

    I think the "rock" part comes from them being so hard then the slider part as before mentioned. It is some of the most valuable parking lot protection I have purchased along with the speed bump plates under it.

    I did 1 parts purple power and 3 parts water to break it down a little. Then, I used the engine foam degreaser spray. IT comes in a blue can. Just spray and let sit for 10min rinse it down and wiped down with microfiber clothes.

    I originally got it for rock protection and still like having it there for peace of mind. Some of the lava rocks here jutting out are sketchy. Most of the time it's defending from other people.

    I bet those lava rocks can eat up some tires

    Yup, that and shoes. Lava is very sharp and chunks off your rubber even when you're careful. My hunting shoes take a beating as well. Shoes that are meant to last "season after season" last about half a year for me.

    I was thinking that it had to be sharp probably takes chunks out of tires

    Hey guys, been a hot minute since I've done anything to my Tacoma, but I did end up snooping around and buying one of these organizers that are on the 3rd Gen Site. Was pretty confident that the 2nd and 3rd Gen Storage Area are the same, and sure enough it fits like a dream.

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/rear-seat-organizer-under-behind.579694/

    That space had been dead storage for the winch hookup that came with my ARB, and now I've got a semblance of organization in an otherwise hard to use space. Thinking that I'll end up using it for different screw sizes, but put some random items in there for scale.
