    Traded the 2015 TRD Pro 6spd Supercharged on a PowerWagon and could not be happier. My 2011 Tacoma with the TX Baja package (Added by me) is still treating me great. My 1985 Toyota never skips a beat.
    For the dipstick, i haven't really had a problem either, but if someone has a better time after they scuff it and its easy.. ill give it a shot :)

    Finally got rid of the junk stock "skid plate" and replaced it with a beefy Pelfreybilt IFS skid. I will be ordering the rest of the skids next month probably.

    Get the Dewalt Titanium drill bit for the transfer skid plate. It was a pricy piece but walked right through the frame.

    Installed Core short shifter, AFE ProDry CAI and URD mast air flow sensor calibrator. Thinking about Doug Thorley long tube headers but havent fully made up my mind. Its pretty bad when the intake is louder then the exhaust and that is including the borla catback that I had already installed. Any thoughts?
