    And ordered the Toyota OEM running boards, TRD seat covers, All weather floor mats, and a new key and key fob. I am going to go pick the stuff up tomorrow!!!
    Now, I am looking at getting a bull bar and TRD exhaust:D. Any suggestions on a heavy duty bull bar? Also, do any of you guys have experience with the TRD exhaust?

    It was quite a bit, but it will be worth it in the long run and a good investment. He gave me 30% off everything. It came out to $788 with tax. Yeah, I think I will go with the Aries bull bar. I called them and it's made out of .060 0304 Stainless, which is fairly thick. The TRD exhaust is about $400 from my Toyota. It's not neccessary right now, I think I will wait a little bit.
    In regards to the Aries bull bar, how is the quality? How much is one?

    Called the dealer to check on a few things and he told me that $152.50 is a great deal for those seat covers and he couldn't touch it. It is a Buy it Now and he has 12 left. I am thinking hard about these. The guy who had the truck before me was a heavy smoker and there are burn holes in the seats. It drives me nuts.

    That is a really, really good price. I got mine from the dealer at like $175. I know what you mean because my dad smokes and whenever he rides with me, he isn't allowed to smoke because he already put a couple holes in the seat. :(

    It does not wrap around the fenders. Forget about opening gates, Nor does it have push bars.
    I got mine from the Sheriff`s Dept. I do not see a brand.

    I bought my seatcovers from them. They seem to always have them in stock and for sale on Ebay. Shipping was reasonable and fast. They shipped the next business day and being in RI I had them installed in the truck about 40 hours after hitting the buy it now button. :D
