    I think we are on the same page! I just got this for mine to eventually tie in with my electronics.

    Def not bad for the price. I like how it comes with a sheet to have some customization to the buttons.

    Yeah man. Luckily I've just got an SR5 so I have tons of blanks next to the steering wheel. I don't know how much more I'm going to add. Probably on-board air, rear aux/back up lights when I get my bumper, and some bed lights for sure, but not sure what else.

    Yea that was my problem is I have like one blank available. Because of this I decided to get this as I got no other options for stuff.

    I figure if I fill all that up, I'll snag a later model lower dash piece that has the blanks in it to give me a few more. But I honestly don't see myself filling it all up. I also need to find a deal on some Yakima or Thule racks now that I'm the proud new owner of a Softopper. The kind that clip into the door jamb so I can put them on with a ski/snowboard carrier to carry my fishing poles when I hit the beach and take them off when I don't need them.

    You should also have 3 blanks in the dash below the heater contols CH 4x4 small Toyota push switches work very well there

    Well guys I was blessed with the opportunity to have firestone tire come test their new mud tire at my house and on the orange overland experts trails this past week. They tested the tire agains the BFG KM2 and the firestone surprisingly was miles ahead of it and out performed it 110% sadly the truck of choice were 2017 fully loaded jeep rubicons . I'll post a few picture of them testing. However I now have 9 sets of firestone mt2s witch are unreleased to the public and won't be available till July or August. So if anyone would like to buy a set from me the tires are 265/70/17s and I'm selling them for $800 a set. All the tires are brand new with no highways miles just got taken down a few trails and through a mud hole. So if you would like some send me a message and we can talk.

    Not on mine. I don't think they got those until '11 model year.

    I might possibly be interested. Also might have a few other people who may be as well. Let me do some asking around for you.

    Agreed.

    Overland experts is a off-road driving training class. All of their trials and their Virginia training facility is at my house here in Orange. They offer civilian training as well as big military contracts. They are actually training a few army rangers here next week.

    I haven't done any real off-road driving other than playing in mud since the Mohave 30 years ago been there a half dozen times but not much since so school may be well worth it god knows I'm not about to pretend to know much

    Wait a minute now... I'm not THAT rich.

    Yeah, we gotta get you up to the mountains. Once that shoulder heals up and you can deal with some bouncing around.
