    I feel you. I went to Dealer Options in Augusta, GA, having made an appointment 2 weeks in advanced, to have a hitch receiver, 4-pin pig tail, and new window visors installed. They asked that we come before lunch and it would be done before the installers went to lunch. I had a doctors appt to go to and live and hour away so we drove two vehicles and dropped it off around 9 and went one my way.

    ~4 hours later after the doctors office, eating lunch, stopped by a few motorcycle dealerships (had to look at the Ducati 1199 Pantigale) and rode back to pick up my truck. Exactly where it was when we left. It was an 3 hours before the truck was even in their install bay. I waited another hour in their hot as hell show room for them to install everything. 8 hours to install 3 items. They even used the plug and play style pig tail like this.

    We are very disappointed with their business and even after explaining the situation to the manager he did little else to reconcile the problems than a meek "sorry, we've been busy today." The actual install may have taken 45 minutes yet it took them a full work day, 8 hours, to complete. Very unhappy with them and will not return.

    Edit: But it looks much better without the broken visors and the hitch has already paid for itself hauling the mower around.

    Hey all,

    New Tacoma owner here, only about a month in and so far I am loving it. Being that I am new to trucks, first one, anyone know any good places in the Charlotte area for parts accessories other than the big box type stores (autozone etc...) I always prefer to shop local or smaller chains if possible. Can't wait to get the truck in some mud so if anyone knows some good places for a stock truck to play that would be appreciated to.

    Thanks all in advance!

    Anyone seen my old truck on here since I sold it last July? Just wondering if someone had done anything else to it.

    Welcome! I am in Charlotte too, right down the street from 4wp. That 4wp isn't too bad for parts, but they will rape you with labor charges because they are a "specialty shop". They are having a sale event this Saturday. I have gotten to know the guys in there and they are pretty good, they actually drive Toyotas.

    :thumbsup: I think they are doing free install with certain purchases, so that might be something to consider. I am planning to be at URE on Saturday, otherwise I would head up there and say whats up.

    If you get some parts to install and need some help, post here. I wouldn't mind lending a hand if I am not busy, and tacomaman06 was talking about planning a mod day so keep that in mind.

    Lol. You wouldn't keep up, and we're trying to keep a small group anyway ;).
