    Which detector do you have? Your description sounds exactly like mine, it's a Uniden, just got last year, don't remember the model. But you're right, definitely get what you pay for. Mine wasn't cheap but it's saved my ass a couple times.

    Yes, OEM, didn't come on the truck when I got it, put it on myself maybe 6 months afterwards. Very easy install, took less than an hour taking my time. Don't use it much, but definitely useful when needed.

    I don't remember exactly who I got it from, but it was a Toyota dealer in Dallas. Got the roof rack, bed mat and mud flaps at the same time, all on sale.

    I can't believe how popular the "plain" Colorado plates have become (with black being the most popular, by far). I know that they are heritage designs from WAY back, but it just doesn't seem like a Colorado plate without the mountains on them.

    You may end up with a line of people out front waiting to order an actual taco.

    OTT tuned this morning! Medium/Spicy. The drive back home was Glorious!:cool: Big difference and I noticed the truck was able to reach 6th gear at 40 mph without jockeying the gas pedal. I'm really happy with these settings, and happy I saw obvious improvements on the 15 minutes drive home.

    Thank you @RCTuningFL !

    I’m speaking from perspective and experience, please please please park on your property so the delivery man doesn’t bust their shin on that thing, (or any protruding hitch piece for that matter), while carrying a large package to your front door and has their view blocked… my split shin took 2.5 months to heal, freakin split to the bone! But totally understand why it’s on the truck!
