    In Hawaii not sure if the Superchargers are worth getting? But if I lived where you can drive for hundreds of miles and miles , one way, and in higher elevations, sounds great to do it.

    Yesterday in Hawaii Craigslist has a 2018 Tundra with the Magnuson Supercharger for sale. 3 inch lift, Fox shocks, etc.

    I'm not quite sure what you mean. At 11,000 feet the truck wouldn't go up the hill?

    I've been up Mount Evans with a camper shell, full of gear, 63lb a piece tires and 3 other people, sliders.... at 14,000 feet. Truck did fine. It shifts a lot, but I didn't really have issues. It ain't fast, but just going through the mountains at 10,000 feet I can keep up on the interstate fine.

    I was on a fire road fairly steep in 4H and it really struggled to go. I was topped out doing like 5mph then it would flatten a bit I’d pick up speed and I would be able to maintain a bit more speed but if I let go the peddle it would struggle to get up and go again.

    With a manual you need to be in 4lo most of the time on the trail. Lugging it up inclines in 4hi is normal with a standard transmission, put it in 4lo and you won't ever have that problem
