    Tinted shield gang! Both my vehicles have tinted shields and the cops have never said anything about it - even when pulling me over to ticket me for the sides lol. That was in my tC though which looks like it's straight out of the high school parking lot. The cops out here seem to leave trucks alone unless you're doing something really stupid.

    A sub upgrade is absolutely needed on the JBL. The stock sub is inaudible. Hope it works out!

    Found the time this weekend to do a proper detail on the truck and re-apply its ceramic coat. It's been feeling a bit rough lately so needed the full wash + clay bar + polish + ceramic treatment. Smooth now :D

    Then just because I liked the Hammer Hangers so much, I grabbed these rear wheel sensor guards from Archive Garage. As expected, they are very well-built pieces with perfect fitment. I probably won't actually ever scrape them on anything, but they're really nice insurance and they hide the unsightly plugs. Trying to talk Eric into designing a matching set for the front too, so I don't have to purchase aluminum ones.

    Sensor guards look pretty stout. I went with the Jomax Customs (https://jomaxcustoms.com/jomax-buy-...for-the-toyota-tundra-jomax-customs-lcc-37l52) which are aluminum. What are your objections to aluminum?

    Those are OOS everywhere with no ETA, lol. I like that they attach to multiple points but would rather run steel if it's available. They're the best aluminum option for sure though.

    I like that those Archive Garage ones don't have a riding condition on the speed sensor wire, and also have two attachment points.

    Having a bit of buyers remorse y’all. Toyota just teased the 2024 Tacoma 4th gen with a manual transmission. My #1 reason for buying the Tacoma when I did was because all signs pointed to a manual not being offered with the 4th gen. Still love the truck so it’s not all bad; it is what it is I guess.

    He’s part Klingon. It’s a cloaking device - it creates a “glare of invisibility”. That, and he doesn’t give a rat about others.

    Good thing about Tacos is they hold their value like gold. You won't have an issue getting top dollar for yours if you decide to trade it in. Personally, I wouldn't get a first year car though.

    For every person like you having buyer's remorse there are 20 people who smartly decided to stay away from the first-issue Gen 4 and will buy yours! :p

    I can confirm the RSI rack needs zero drilling. You will need to cut up your weatherstripping on the roof if you want to put it back down after the rack is installed.

    That's why I didn't get the JBL setup lol, but it actually sounds pretty decent with the speakers swapped out to the aftermarket JBL's. IDK why they put such crap speakers in the 'premium'. The sub is the biggest let down though, I was beyond unimpressed with my buddies Pro setup, even before I overhauled mine.

    Or...he was just driving along not bothering anybody when the OP flashed his ditch lights at him making him think his were on so he reached down and hit the button thinking he was turning them off.

    It's okay, you got a 6 cylinder and won't have the first model year with all the bugs.

    Now if they make it a DCLB with manual then we can both be sad.

    They were on from the start......

    For some reason in our area it's also the raptor idiots who drive around with their hidden light bar on during the day as well.

    Same argument really. Guy's driving along with his ditch lights on without realizing, another truck flashes his own ditch lights. Guy thinks he's saying hello, guy thinks he's turning his on and then off again while actually turning them off and back on again. It's quite plausible this guy is not a douche bag and may possibly someone you have a lot in common with.
