    Exactly, They are very advanced technology.
    The T4R of 15 yrs ago is basically the same under the skin. Very few outside the industry can see this, but that’s why they buy them, they just work like a faithful horse, day in day out.

    They nascar'ed my wheels on a tire rotation and stripped 3 lugs - unfortunately, it was 3 different wheels they stripped out the lugs on. Shenanigans.

    The trip before that - ugga duggad my skid plate and stripped out the front skid plate bolt. I didn't realize that one until I went to do an oil change. So, that was fun - that one I just left, since I'm putting on an IFS skid soon. the welded "nut" on the cross bar lost it's weld, so that was just rotating in free space too.

    That dealership doesn't touch my truck anymore...

    Thought about that, but for some reason was concerned about if they adjust the lumbar or back position. :rofl: I guess hopefully I shouldn't have to worry about that.
