Good looking truck! Watch your spending on the aftermarket stuff out there.

 

May I suggest as far as tonneau cover I would go with truxedo they have a lifetime warranty. I had mine for like 5 years and the stitching just started coming undone and they are sending me a new one I'll have it next week.

 

had a bit of a shake at 55-60mph so I took back to carmax to check balance, they are sending to dealership to do road force balance but they said these trucks tend to have this problem.
Is this something I should call BS on? I haven't had an "off road vehicle" before. I know its not going to ride as smooth as a car, but I dont think it should shimmy and shake.

 

My '13 had a shake at around 70 from the time it was new... Almost unnoticeable except for the fact that the passenger seat would shake and rattle unless someone was riding in it...

 

Thanks for the replies,
I would expect a lil vibration on startup until the tires get warm but not a constant shake.
They still have it at the toyota dealer, so maybe I will get good news soon.

I love this forum, but sometimes it can be like looking up cold symptons on the internet....a runny nose can lead to death. or a shimmy can lead to TSB's and transmission worries.
