    Yes, i had the sliding side windows. I confirmed with a local shop that i could add windoors and then ordered from them. Install was pretty straightforward but definitely a 2 person job.

    Some really cool shit
    Truck was running fine but needed a tire rotation. Bought tires about 5 or 6 thousand miles back. It was due. Slightly over by recommendations.

    Drove away. Got on the freeway and it wasn’t right. Ok, maybe shitty part of freeway. Drove home from Dublin. Still bugging me. Back again this morning. Got in the truck and the TPMS light is on, as well. Sheesh. We shall see if these guys are any good. Yesterday was Strike One.

    Yup, also got USAA home and auto. When I got rear-ended in my truck they were awesome to deal with. Had an estimate at a shop for repairs and money in my bank account within 28 hours.

    That's what I did. Added coverage for the bumpers, DIY sliders (material cost), suspension, and my cap (after I broke the window). Annual premium went up something like $28. @Speedo has GEICO. I think he's happy with the way they handled his accident.

    Second times a charm. Rollin' on down the road. Confidence re-established at Americas Tire. The Manager helped me directly. Good move.

    I have a leer and paid $229+tax per windoor. They quoted me $70 more if i wanted windoors with sliders. I opted for no sliders and to do the install myself. Also a plus was i ordered both wi doors and new latches and they were able to get them all keyed the same.

    I called a couple places close to me. This was the best deal i could find and the place was helpful. One place i called didnt seem to want to help me after i said i wanted to do the install myself.

    Damn. That seems like a good deal. I paid more for just the rear at Campway's. It was the only option if I wanted a window.

    Damn that’s pricey. I’m sure my dumbass ou
    I am going to do some searching around. Maybe I will stumble on something on Craigslist. It's not a necessity, I just like the option of loading shit from the side.

    remember that extra coverage is only good for items less then 1 or 2 yrs old. they pay high for a total loss taco but i was paying for the extras long after i should of. they only covered what i had receipts for that showed they were less then a 1 yr old. but still was paid well. 17.5k with me keeping the truck and it had 135k miles and 9 yrs old.would of paid me 22k if i gave them the truck. They were great to deal with and paid me quick.

    Very happy. They paid out quick. My rates went up due to another accident in the same yr. Took a Prius bumper off parking downtown before I totaled the truck.
    I'm still with them as they were so quick to help. A+ in customer service.

    I went to them a few years back to get the lock replaced on my snugtop on my old 04 Tacoma. I might have to connect with them again. Thanks for the reminder.

    You called them to add these on right? I declared online the vehicle was modified but didn't get into details. I want to do the same.

    Working Valleycare for my medic clinical hours. Of course it’s Fri-Sun 1900-0730 fml. If you feel like you want to go to the hospital for that stubbed toe, wait til 3am and come to Valleycare so I can practice IV’s on you.
