I went into the local off road parts place and walked up to the counter. Salesman: Hi there. How can I help you? Me: I have a problem. My wife is short and she grunts. Salesman: Running boards? Me: Yup Saleman: I can help you over here. I looked around online and decided on these Dominator...

Thanks. Much Appreciated.

Looks great! I might even wrap my roof even though I've got Underground. I kinda figure its a cheap way of protecting the roof paint if I get a rack and its a bit trickier to access at the car wash. And I definitely need to black out my stock wheels somehow.

Hey Dave. I just ditched my Michelin Primacy tires that came with my sport. Tirerack gave them a 5.5 for winter driving, which around Calgary for us isn't brilliant. I kept my stock rims and went with an all-weather. I think the KO is also winter rated, but something to consider before the end...

Have you done any comparison with and without with regards to MPG? I'm also looking at a roof rack but mileage is a slight concern. Not sure if its enough to deter me, but I'm curious. Thx.

Yeah, sorry. On the truck they are fine. Pretty good handling, lower rolling resistance and all that for good gas mileage. If you're sticking to pavement, then I'm sure you'll be fine. I did see on Tirerack that even though they are called an "all season highway tire", the Primacy LTX have...

Yep. They were the Primacy LTX. I asked the shop to throw the original tires in the back of the truck so I could try and sell them. When I went to stack them in the garage I gave them a shake. They flexed and wobbled quite easily in my hands. They are definitely a light duty highway tire...

I'll be honest as well, I like the look. Kinda like how I prefer having a beard to being clean shaven (I dont have a Superman-like jawline.....). However, like others have mentioned I'll be removing it before I head out of town for fear of it being ripped off. I'd like to get a metal skid...

Quick Update: Ride Quality - Definitely stiffer over stock, but the original tires are really floppy. I feel like I could have folded them into a pretzel by hand. They are definitely a light duty highway/SUV tire. Fuel Consumption - Has increased slightly (maybe 0.5L/100 or 1 MPG)/ in City...

Stock- 265/65R18 Michelin Primacy LTX New Rubber - LT275/70R18 - E rated load - All Weather tire - Tire shop put them at 45psi. No rubbing. Good clearance. Stock 18" rims Stock (sport) suspension Ride quality seems to be unchanged. I've only put 2kms on them so far but I can report back if...

Thank you all for your info. Not sure which I’ll go with, but I find this valuable. Thank you.

No worries. Thanks for the info.

I have considered a retrax. At this time, I think I want it to roll up over the bed rather than down into it. I do like the x4ts, so that is definitely on my radar to watch for its release. I have to do some measurements yet, but my reasoning behind this is when putting a motorcycle or bicycle...

I would like a hard roll-up tonneau but I also want the option of adding a bed rack. I'm looking at the Truxedo Sentry and the Bak Revolver but finding a bed rack compatible with these is limited. KB Voodoo racks seem to be compatible, but their aluminum rack is $2K USD, which is twice the...

What are the chances of your 17" bed rack being compatible with a tonneau? I'm eyeing up two hard rollups - Truxedo Sentry and Bak Revolver X4ts (when they release a '24 compatible version). The previous models of Revolver had bed cap rails to attach other crossbars, but I don't know if...

I won't claim this is it, but maybe. We have both port and direct injection which alternatively engage at various states of engine speed or load, and direct injection is known for causing carbon buildup. The engine has a "self-clean" mode when at idle to remove these carbon deposits. This might...

I have found that I can get good mileage in my 6spd if I don't have a lot of red lights and stop signs. That first gear is pretty short, it takes about 3K rpm to get into 2nd and my MPG goes to sh*t. If I'm able to keep moving, even in traffic with up and down speeds, I'm easy on the throttle...

I believe people want the OR due to the Bilstein suspension, rear diff lock, front sway bar disconnect and multi-terrain settings. If you're not inclined to do some deep offroad, then you'll be perfectly fine with the sport. I would love the OR features, but I went with the sport because mine...

In the interest of currency exchange and shipping costs, I'd like to compile a list of websites friendly to Canadian Taco owners. Please feel free to add more so we can build our rigs without doubling the cost. I am in no way affiliated with these sites nor do I have any opinions. I am only...

Since most manufacturers use common wiring harnesses across their lineup, I went hunting for unused connectors in my Sport+. In the front right fuse box under the hood, I found a spot for the inverter relay. I don’t have an inverter, so my plug was empty. However, peering through the hole next...
