    it’s not hate man, at all

    it is being objective


    You are bashing a company based on your own failure

    I’m not saying this to hurt you or offend you

    you need to take a deep look inside and recognize that you failed yourself.

    grow as a person! Be accountable, man

    wish the best of luck to you

    Some of you all don’t even realize how lucky you are that companies make this crap.

    you as a consumer have the responsibility to research a product, before deciding on buying it/installing it.

    Maybe, there is demand so there will be supply. There is actually too much supply which is why so many vendors go under.

    Those companies should also provide as much information about the product so consumers can make an educated decision.

    Are slider dimensions posted on their website?

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    They are about 2" shorter than most of the sliders on the market. 80" is about the max length you can do while still keeping them tucked tight to the body. Blame Toyota for not making a straight rocker panel.

    I'll put a tape to them this weekend and let you know. Probably Sunday before I get to it, though.

    I really don’t get the hate coming from your response.

    I am coming from a Land Cruiser and a member of IH8MUD and we didn’t act like this over there. We were a family there to help each other.

    If companies were forth coming with their products one should not have to investigate before buying.

    I’m sorry exposing a hidden company secret is upsetting you.

    Once a thread evolves into a size comparison contest, is it then considered a Friday Dumpster Fire thread?

    To be completely fair. He did not bash the company. He stated what he didnt realize. He spoke with the company, then stated how he felt. He didnt say "screw this company" or "I'm never buying from them again". He stated something he felt about a product he recieved. You in all fairness bashed him in return. You haven't been helpful. You haven't been informative. It comes down to a back and forth at this point. Are you happy with your sliders? Great. He isnt happy with his. It's that simple

    If you have a problem with one of the loved companies here, people will defend the company up and down. It’s always your fault regardless what happens. Just how TacomaWorld operates.

    ugghhh, let me rephrase the question:

    Who makes the longest sliders for a short wheelbase 3G Tacoma?

    Years ago I was into Salt water aquariums. I was a member of a large forum. One of the vendors was selling faulty skimmers which sold for $1,600 and up.

    I bought into the hype. Purchased the end all of skimmers to find out it was junk. I posted my findings on the forum and was banned.

    It’s sad that some forums cater to the vendors and don’t allow free speech. Resulting in more disappointed buyers at the buyers expense.
