    Only 3 in stock at my walmart. Should I go get them and worry about finding a 4th later?

    Well they are discontinued so you finding another might be difficult

    I would use brickseek and search your area for a fourth. The Walmart app isn't bad either

    Brickseek screwed me this morning. I went to two Walmarts that were both showing 2 in stock, and neither actually had them...ugh

    I did call and got the "oh yes, we show 2 in stock, come get them" and when I show up, they are magically no where to be found.

    I have had the same issue. Wally World customer service just plain sucks. I'm done searching for these things now. Hopefully you can find some!

    Same Walmart crap for me too. I call, yep we have 2 left. I say hold them, get there in 20 mins. nowhere to be found. "Sorry". I was willing to drive to Wy to get the other 2 but they are out everywhere in a 3 state area from CO.

    Thanks for the heads up on the sale! I was able to snag a set of 5 for $230!

    I'll be selling one, so if anyone in the OKC area is interested, let me know.

    I bought my set of Authorities on a whim for my wife's GX470 as they were too good of a deal to pass up. I haven't installed them yet, and wanted the opinion of those who have them already because I am having second thoughts. Wondering if I should sell them and put on the AT3s I initially intended.

    My only concern is noise. My wife uses it as a kid hauler most days, I use it as a hunting truck and we take it to on mild Colorado trails from time to time. So how bad is the noise? Annoying for daily driving and road trip duties?

    I find the noise slightly agitating (I tend to use in ear bluetooth rather than my bluetooth headunit) but it's not unbearable.

    Uncomfortably so, or something you get used to?

    I get used to it but when somebody else rides with me I notice it again.

    With the Lexus being quieter inside than a Tacoma, I may be overthinking it. Just don't want to affect the comfort too much if I can avoid it.

    There's definitely some noise to them, but it's not unbearable. Much quieter than Duratracs.
