    Hello...... Been lurking for a while. Just Bought a 2017 TRD Off-road double cab short bed. Shipped the vehicle to Slee Off Road in Colorado. I've had the truck just a few short days. OME BP-51 suspension is amazing. I have not adjusted shocks at all but as you push the vehicle it wants more like a fat kid eating cake. I'll be on the forum quite a bit now that i have something to talk about. If i can help anyone don't hesitate to ask. I've picked up ideas and suggestions from you members. Its been great so far. Thank you.

    Welcome. You got a lot to talk about with that truck. Looks good.

    Headed out to CO in about 20 days just to drive around and see the state.

    Nokian Rottiva AT tires ( laughing starts) I've had duratracs, Nitto terra grapplers and Exo's and also BFG KO2s. I simply wanted a softer compound, quiet ride yet it had to handle the elements. I came to the Nokian after all my research. 50k mile warranty helps as well. I know these tires will be junk before then but we will see how they do. Couldn't find anything negative. In the snow these are supposed to be monsters. So far so good. 300 miles tells me nothing though.

    I believe he was referring to the transmission, automatic or manual?
    If not, then now I'm asking.

    Like, so many.
    What all have you done to the truck? Looks great, but i do wish there were better snorkel options.

    I understand how you could think it was referencing your tires so don't apologize. What is the end goal for your bed and roof racks? Roof top tent on one maybe? I can't recall seeing many people have platforms in both places.

    Yes....... Tent. Looking at the moment. Would really like a hard shell. ARB had a test vehicle with this set up..... I simply just fell in love with the look. It's fairly unique.
