    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Inside the frame front boxed sections under the motor and around the suspension system needs a good squirt of something like Fluid Film. [​IMG] Spray the living shit out of the steering shaft u-joint at the box, too!

    Congrats x2 on the new truck!!

    Just Curious, Did you ask the dealer what Toyota has done to convince the public and you that the frame rust issue is fixed??

    Lookin good! I'm jealous but at the same time I hate buying brand new because when you get that first rock in the windshield it's never a good day.
