Great answer - I love a lot of details! I can understand because I sold my last sports car before buying my Tacoma for mostly the same reasons you did. I just had to ask because IMO the C7 Z06 manual is the probably the best V8, front engine, rear drive sports car of all time.

My truck has always started just fine, but reading this inspired me to check the battery level. Checking it at the jump point in the fuse box it reads 11.89 VDC right now, which seems like a problem to me. I might put it on a maintainer for a while and see what happens and then talk to my...

Sweet car but a whole lot different than a Taco! I have loved C7s since the first time I saw one and that Z06 is a dream car for me. Was it hard to let that beauty go?

Good question. That R50-P1 was for the wider of the two available, which is what fits a Pro or TH. The ones that ended in R00-P1 fit the narrower flaps. I wonder how this new part # compares.

Cool - that is the best price I have seen so far. I'm very happy with my Canadian flaps and I like the Tacoma letters on the rear ones.

Good call on hanging on to that coupe - those are very special IMO.

Wow - I am surprised your dealer even took pictures and contacted Toyota. I will be even more surprised if Toyota does anything about it. Looking forward to hearing what they have to say.

Thanks! I thought I remembered something like that but I haven't tried to find where I saw it. I do need a step and that bracket looks nice and secure.

I think that is true, but they should say the problem is the recovery points, because a lot of 4th gens have had them added. And what does that have to do with the trailer hitch? I never buy stuff online when the details don't make sense, because who knows what else they have wrong?

Great question. There is nothing different about the Pro hitch that I can tell.

True, so we are still stuck with off road trucks that don't work well off road and have not idea if or when that might be fixed.

Good information! It sounds like the transmission is overheating by not down shifting and is just letting the torque converter do the work. That would explain the overheating and why manual shifting fixes the problem. It would be great if a TCU software update fixes the problem, and hopefully...

303 Protectant is thin and you can just put some on a cloth and wipe the seats with no chance of clogging anything. It never makes things look greasy of shiny and the protection is great.

I know some steps have a conflict with the recovery points, but that listing says that you need to remove the Pro's trailer hitch to install it? I also wondered how high off of the ground it is. In the picture it looks pretty low, which might still leave a big step up to the bed.

I haven't put anything on mine yet, just wiped them with a damp cloth as recommended. My all purpose go to for synthetics is Aerospace 101 protectant, which is what I will probably use unless something more specific turns up.

@Carolina Buckeye That is how my truck works too. It always starts the ICE and it will not shut it down until the engine warms up a bit. So it always starts the engine when you first turn on the truck.

Yeah, I'd be interested to see what they say about that. Would they actually have the balls to tell you that you can't drive your off road truck in 4wd and that you were doing something wrong?

You could do more, but IMO you really don't need to because your truck looks great now.

@DENNISD Your truck looks awesome! I have always loved SO but it looks even better with those black accents.

That sounds normal from my experience with my truck. As I get closer to 3k miles it has improved about 2 mpg from that, and I think that is decent mileage considering the power.
