    I added the hood struts (Red Line Tuning) and side steps (N-Fab) No problems yet with the JBL/nav. The ride is about the same as my old 2010 that I traded in.

    I installed the backup camera relocation myself in the OEM head unit, the input is available in the back and unused. I do not think that a dealership would do this or even be aware that this exists. It's a $70 kit on Ebay and an hour's worth of your time while swapping 1 plug, splicing 1 wire, plugging in 1 new connector, and adding 1 pin to an existing connector.

    I'm waiting for my 2014 to be delivered possibly this week or next week. I removed the kit from my 2013 and assuming that my 2014 is already in the radio, my kit will be for sale soon.

    Once you install one of these, new options will appear in your radio menu for the camera. You can adjust brightness and contrast to make the picture better, not the small washed out picture that you have in the mirror. I didn't realize how much better this made it until I removed the kit and tried to use it in the mirror again.

    It's not hard to install, especially after you have done it and undone it once. If you were local (Pittsburgh), I'd give you a hand.

    I like my 2013. A better truck than my 09 (it was stolen). The 09 had the thinnest paint I have ever seen on a truck. Otherwise it was very good. I do like the 13. It has awesome breaks, better radio, better paint, same gas mileage, smoother transmission. Seats may not be as good but these are leather in mine now. Overall. No complaints about any of my toyotas.

    TRD Seats are a real problem. Terrible angles, no lumbar support and limited adjustment. Developed sciatic nerve pain and lower back issues within 2000 miles. There's no easy fix, so I am selling my 4 month old baby before I develop a complete hatred for all things Toyota
