    Hey I just bought a Quicksand TRD OR 4x4 Auto DCSB! And i have Just have a few questions for all y'all.
    Can i fit a 285s without rubbing?
    What is the difference between a sport and offroad?
    Is a 6 inch spacer lift a good idea?
    Will lifting 6 inch with spacers void my warrantee?
    There is a nanosecond pause between gear shifts, will the TSB fix it? And if not can i lemon law it for that?
    will my mpg go down with 285 and a 6 inch spacer lift?
    Can I peel off plastidip?
    Is the Honda ridgeline a better vehicle?

    In all seriousness this is a great site with lots of awful information but some people should discover the search bar. And None of these questions are legit, just satire! So people this is an entry level midsize truck not a high performance car, if you dont like it why did you buy it!
