My 2025 Tacoma Trailhunter Long Bed w/ Mods

Who makes that ladder?

I don’t know who the manufacturer is, but here is the link to the seller’s page. The ladder is still working great for me when it’s not practical to use the bed step on the right side. I went outside and checked but did not see a manufacturer name anywhere on it.

They have a chat feature and phone number so if you want to find out more try fielding a call to those folks. I had to call them with a question about one of their other products and they were very nice.

and you just secured it to the new tailgate cover/plate? Nice. I do kinda wish I had gotten the TrailHunter with the Wireless camera system and the HUD especially since I believe I paid just as much as everyone else but didn't get it but, I hardly ever looked at my old HUD and I'd rarely tow. I wonder if adding the wireless system is possible or if it would require the headunit or mirror to come programmed for it...

Yep, just finagled with a few firm foam pieces to shim up the ladder mounting plate to the recessed part of the tailgate cutting board.

The Toyota WCS can only be factory or port installed. It’s an additional subsystem. We have had constant travel to family and rainy weather so haven’t installed the camera on our camping trailer yet. Gak! It’s been 50mph winds for two days, finally subsiding.

Sad to say, I don’t have a HUD, since I have a 2025. My sense is that there was a chip shortage or software problems they could not resolve so they decided to downgrade the truck. Bummer, I would use the HUD like I do in my ‘24 Integra. Life is rough!! Haha

I wish it had the HUD. The TRD Pro doesn't have it either.
