    Little bit of factory tint on sunroofs but not nearly enough for my liking.
    I put 5% film on it. Now i can tilt it open without sun glare on back of my glasses from above.

    Anyone have an ECGS needle bearing removal tool that I can rent? I have to re-boot my drivers side axle and am going to do the bushing while I'm at it.

    I've been following the "whoring out needle bearing tool" thread, but I wanted to check here first before I put my name on the list.

    I believe @Mr.Bl0nde had one, I'm not sure if he still does or not.

    When I'm passing through Memphis one of my favorites is Corky's BBQ. They have a few different locations around Memphis.

    Memphis Barbeque Company just across the state line off I55 in Southaven Mississippi is good too.

    Woman that started it is one of the judges/hosts on a bbq show on Netflix.

    Any of you have experience with a Softopper?
    Sorta thinking I want a cover for my Tundra after driving through 4 hours of rain to get to a camping spot last week. Would have been much easier than tucking a tarp around everything and hoping it was tied good enough to stay covering my stuff. I regularly carry tall stuff though so I need something easy to get out of the way too.

    Gus's Fried Chicken is always a staple. If you go to the one off Mendenhall you also have garibaldi's pizza and Gibson donuts right across the parking lot, good variety of local legends

    I had one on my Tacoma, it was pretty convenient. Super easy to take off and put on (in the summer). Now, when it's cold out, good luck getting the snaps back together if you have to take it down. I ended up having to use Vice Grips to tug the snaps back into place in the winter.

    Love mine for camping trips on the Tacoma. Literally zero complaints about it. Easy up and down with no water intrusion.

    Thanks for the recommendations, poked around Beale St today, cruised on a paddle boat, ate a deep fried Twinkie and ended up going to Central Bbq for some ribs on the way home.

    Also needed to get alignment done and took it to the stealership, $100 was def a good deal. It seems like they did stuff right and even ran the truck through the car wash.

    Another recommendation from a cousin that lives over there is for Toms BBQ.
