    Agreed. I guess no place is perfect and I should appreciate where I live and things I get to experience.

    Nice! Mine are holding up well. Do you have a part number for the sun shade?

    I always upgrade to another size within a year or sell the rig so don’t know exactly. But I did put 10k miles on the GX with them and when I sold it they still had 80-85% tread left.

    From what I hear there is a third opinion.

    Massive drug use, especially coke or meth.

    Got rid of the pinstripes that I’ve hated since day one. I don’t know why it’s taken me so long. The truck looks much cleaner without them. Next up the tundra badges on the doors.

    How did you remove them? I always thought they were painted on. Is that only specific trims/regions?

    I had stock muffler before so yeah there’s definitely a difference. Not loud and obnoxious in the cab tho. Little to no droning at highway cruising speed however same with all exhaust if up in the higher rpm for a long time gets a little loud (like towing or driving up hills etc) I read the turn downs actually make the trd exhaust more quiet but I wouldn’t know first hand.

    Thanks, post some pictures of it in place when you get chance. Does it work well with the windshield camera and stuff?

    I just put it in this morning. I'll snap some pics when the sun is up. Yes it works well. The camera is why it is a different part number for the 18-21.

    Last December I decided I was going to get rid of the Tundra and ordered a F-450, a couple of weeks ago I canceled the order and decided to stick with the Tundra. So caught up on some of the maintenance that I was putting off for the trade. New tires, brakes, and an oil change. Got a great deal on some load E Goodyear DuraTracs, installed EBC yellow stuff and sport rotors, and per usual Amsoil. It's almost like a brand new truck again.

    No worries, I was ready to get those links and it occurred to me I was supposed to get sway bar spacers with my Icon order and did not. So I am going to reach out to them. I like the end links, if Icon does not send me the spacers which are about 100.00 I will just get the endlinks.

    note: It does not say this anywhere but it helps to deepen the front slot on the sway bar brackets to push the swaybar a little further forward. Also the swaybar end corners are cut off to create more room. The bolt head on my driver side is lightly contacting the lower shock cup but there is no performance issue. I will likely throw up a few rocks into the cups causing worse scratches/dings....

    I love it, good place for a light bar. Plus have had too many deer related close calls towing a trailer, once I got my camper I knew I wouldn't be able to swerve safely like I had in the past. Hopefully it will let me get home/off the highway with the camper before getting the truck fixed.

    Looks like a ranch hand bumper? We use those at work on our HD trucks, and there have been lots of animal impacts. So long as it's an actual bumper like yours and not just a brush guard, they straight up murder the critters. They've kept most of the trucks drivable after impact, but there's definitely a repair bill.

    Correct, ranch hand. Exactly why I went with the full bumper replacement. After all the research I did, I read the same story, brush guards just add to the damage.

    Swapped stock SR5 headlights for TRD Pro lights, removed the TSS sticker that's annoyed me for 2 years, mounted the Prinsu rack on my topper. A good day.
