    Thank ya sir... I just got the truck and the mod bug is going to cause me to file for bankruptcy! Anyone have suggestions on a bull bar? I don't think I would like the Westin or Aries unless I had bigger tubes for the nerf bars... I was thinking like an avid light bar or something. Any suggestions would be much appreciated...

    Hmmm...I might have to check that "organizer" out. These things are constantly being refined so it's good to keep checking if any improvements have been made. Happy researching. :cool:

    Link to photos - http://www.knfilters.com/cleaning-pics.htm

    At times, the term “completely dirty or caked with layers of crud” really means A. the filter is working and B. it looks like the first photo which isn’t even close to being dirty.

    Above is a direct response from k&n. I aired the concerns and the sentiment posted. With the 1,000,000 mile warranty and the track record K&N has with air filters, I think I am going to have to let this one ride and see how it pans out.

    Got my console organizer in today from salex. Best $20 I spent. It may not sound like much, but it sure makes a world a difference to stuff I carry.

    Yeah I was going to do that instead, but I thought I'd help someone by supporting their small business.

    That works too. I kind of like his better since the compartments are larger.

    When I got rear ended and my bumper was tweaked, they ended up wanting to just replace the whole thing. Since I have the sport and not the trd, it had to be repainted to match my truck. $800 was about the total I was looking at for the bumper+labor in installation/painting.


    VVVV-I replaced my bumper with a brute force bumper :)

    I got a bump on my rear bumper after someone rear ended me and I just asked the insurance company for the check. Used it towards my CBI bumper.

    orly? That's a bummer because I have one showing up tomorrow that I ordered a week or so ago. Someone posted that they fit perfectly so I thought it would be a good mod for the money plus I needed to add something to get my order over $25 for free shipping so this worked out pretty well. Hopefully I can make it fit.

    I did the same thing to get the free shipping deal. The one I purchased did not fit at all. Maybe I need to try again.

    I have a 2005 Access Cab Tacoma. I wonder if the center console is different for latter years?
