    I actually get better gas mileage with them. I had them on my last truck. The coppers drive unbelievable!!! I had the KM2s before and to be honest the rode horribly and never could get them to balance... :anonymous: a 33" tire that rides nice, looks great, doesn't rub, and handles some offroad shit like a champ. I actually don't feel much difference in power from the stock tires. I filled up today so we shall see how my mileage is now that I have everything installed. I was getting 18.5 mpg

    Thanks! I'm pretty sure that will be my next tire and size. Im just trying to get as many opinions as possible. Very few have had anything negative to say.

    I dig it!! I ordered a locking hitch pin off of Amazon and it is too narrow to go all the way through my receiver... :confused: After i started looking at the receiver i noticed that it is different than my old truck. It is much wider..... Anyone know where I can get a locking pin that will fit all the way through?

    I have a master lock branded one in mine, and it's pretty tight. It works great though! Don't remember what model or part no.

    You will never truly be done. I have replaced so many things with "better" and "cooler" things.

    Really digging the truck too, sits about how I'd like mine to be whenever I get enough money and time to actually do it.

    I went with the Bolt brand lock that uses the ignition key. Not the cheapest option but it's a quality stainless pin that's plenty long for the "reinforced" Tacoma hitch and eliminates an extra key on your keyring.

    The Bolt locks are great, I have the padlocks, cable locks, and the Pop n Lock tailgate lock. It's nice to only have one key.
