    Yep. Heard the third gen has filter on the bottom, requiring removal of engine guard if so equipped. The second gen genius must have retired. Haha.

    One is probably offered to toyota in mass quantity at greatly reduced cost, the one we buy is marked up in cost to the general public.
    If you look close the factory belt has what looks like computer generated data, over the counter one has bright bold banded type lettering.

    It sure isn’t, because they never made that truck in 2017. The closest match gets 23 mpg. Nice try though.
