DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Accutune puts in big orders with manufacturers regularly, so they will likely have lower lead times than most vendors which will send in 1 off orders that get sent to the back of the production queue.

 

I have been looking but there isn't much made for us. WE have to drill our own holes where as the double cab already has holes; plus we are the rarer truck.

 

Yep. I was just curious if any actually has any experience with the install. Mime should be here Friday. I may just let my buddy's at the tread depot take care of that for me. I also got all my suspension in the other day. Waiting on a open lift any buddy's shop so I can put it all on. I HATE WAITING.......

 

Are you wanting Adjusters? This is basically the same kit but wihtout adjusters and saves you $600. With getting tuned shocks unless your changing weight or terrain a lot I'm not sure the adjusters are worth teh extra money. I splurged on them and basically never change them(granted I havent taken my truck of road in a long time...). https://accutuneoffroad.com/product/05-tacoma-mid-travel-suspension-kit-stage-2-fox/

Its the adjusters. The Fox's have them and the kings dont in the kits he posted. The kings with the adjusters is ~$400 more than the foxes.

 

The adjusters just seem to be more of a "nice to have" not something I really need.

Considering that the one you posted is a lot closer to what I want to spend, I'm going look closer at that one.

It might be between the King set I posted and the Fox set that you posted. The Kings being stage 3 but the Fox are stage 2. I don't carry heavy loads. I carry my camp gear and I like to set up a base camp and explore from there. Racks or RTTs aren't even in the picture for me. I'm leaning more towards a stage 2 set.

 

What rack did you end up getting? What shop is doing the install? How much for install if I may ask?

 

I ordered from victory 4x4. They have free shipping and it's powder coated. 675 was the grand total. I did get the cut out for the light bar. I think I'm going to let my buddy's at the tread depot do the install for me. I do not have a price for the instal yet. Rack should be here Friday so I only waited a month from the day I purchased it online.

 

Go figure my suspension is here and I have ro leave for Oklahoma city tomorrow. I wanna get this shit on asap!!!!

 

Well I just found out that now my truck will not be here until the end of July. That will make it 7 months and what sucks is I know of people who ordered theirs after me and have already taken delivery. To make things worse I was sent a screen shot of the build and it looks like things that I did not agree to have been added. At least I have a written price agreement so they cant charge me for them.

 

What items got added?

 

From what I can tell they added mudflaps, running boards, and upgraded floor mats. Not sure about some of the other codes. I am waiting for my salesman to get back to me. He was off today and will be in tomorrow.

 

Looking for a potential TWE from/to Houston for two tires

 

I dont know how Toyota does it, but that sounds like the standard recipe for port added items. I was basically told you cant get an OR without steps.

 

I got mine without last September. Sounds like with all the demand, they’re taking the opportunity to tack on extra $.

 

Has any talk happened about the next meet up?

 

The one I built and that came in had no extras. But it was sold out from under me. This new one that was supposedly mine has the following add-ons:
- connectivity kit
- mud guards
- Premium Carpet Mat Set (4 piece)
- Power Tailgate Lock
- Trail Rail
- Vehicle Protection Package (paint renewed cleaner, paint sealant, fabric guard, rental car assistance)
- Bed extender

 

Those are all port adds, but likely if you push too hard to get them to remove them they will just sell that truck to another chump willing to pay MSRP. You need to decide which you prefer, a new truck or your money.

 

It’s not like they’re gonna stop making them lol. You’ll see a drop in sales soon enough.

 

Connectivity kit is actually ok, if I remember what all that is (USB ports in the back of center console).
Mud guards, meh.
Carpet mat set, meh, especially if you end up going with the Husky or other type liners (which I would recommend anyway).
Tailgate lock is GTG.
No idea what a trail rail is.
Paint stuff sounds like dealer college fund padding, rental car assistance -may- be helpful.
Guessing the bed extender is the flip out gate that lets you carry longer/more items with tailgate down, also meh.
