Man, that thing is WHITE!!

It's blueish gray again.  I really love the Shadow Gray Metallic.  I get a lot of great comments on the color.

Picked mine up about a month ago.  Loving it so far.  My only gripe would be a somewhat noisy steering column.  I'm not sure if it's the digital steering assist, but mine seems to make a kind of "hissing" sound when turning the wheel.  Haven't been able to find others with same issue, so I'm wondering if something may be wrong with mine.

Mine makes the hissing sound.  Once I start driving it goes away and comes back when I stop.

I’ve noticed that the new mirrors whistle a little but that’s it.
 

Also, finally got mine in off the lot. FYI for those with a multipro tailgate, check out tailgatefix.com. I am not affiliated, just like the product. It protects your tailgate from hitches.

That looks awesome!  What are the specs?  Lift? Wheel offset, Tire size.  Makes me want to re-think mine!

Thanks! The stance is exactly what I was wanting and hoping for.

Wheels: Fuel Rebel, 22x10, -18 offset
Tires: Nitto Ridge Grappler, 325/50R22, it’s basically a 35x13

Lift: Readylift 3/2 kit. I’m not entirely stoked on the kit. Aesthetically yes it’s exactly what I wanted, it’s perfect. But I’m looking for more ride quality. It’s good on for normal driving but things like speed bumps you can tell the travel is limited.

I did partially expect this though, I need something to fit my wheels haha, end goal would be Icons with BDS, but same height.

don't have a whistling sound from mirrors but I noticed my passenger side mirror closes faster then my drivers side for some reason.

I still see no Double Cabs around in the inventory yet, well, a bunch of Work Trucks, but not interested in a WT. IF I trade, that would be my cab desire, probably long bed. Far and few between.

Yup mine passenger side closes faster as well. Sounds like that's normal since it's the same for all of us, which is odd haha.

maybe cause they are not the same distance out - would make sense. they are not even 

They aren’t?? I thought they were the same size. They look identical to me

    • You must have that upgraded gvw package which is only available or at least was in 2025 with the diesel engine for the 3/4 ton and that gave the truck physically the larger 12.0 ring gear rear diff and the 3500 rear spring pack. There is a difference in what the diff housing looks like externally as one tell tale and also your truck should have the upper overload spring pack and the frame pads that the pack goes up against.    The pressure the tpms system kicks the alarm in on a stock setting truck, that is a good question and was just from what I recall but I doubt I made any notes on it as I knew for the rear that it was not at all what I was after regardless either. Being that you have a diesel and if running on stock tires the minimum pressure on an empty truck seems to be around 50 psi from hearing of those that have weighted the front axle but the rear axle is very similar in weight to a gas truck and again a near empty truck on the rear could go down to 35 pounds at minimum. However the weigh scale is the proper way to know for sure as a guide.    As to changing the readings on the dash from metric to the US measuring system, oh yes that is done easily but what I was attempting to explain was that I can't pick and choose items I want to have in US and those I still want in the metric system at the same time as its either all or none. For example lets say you drove into Canada and switched your dash over to metric so your speedometer read in km an hour, well then your reading kilopascals on your tpms readout and your wife looks over and says what the hell is that saying in the tpms screen and you say "darned if I know, I think its Chinese" !
    • This is partly why I decided to have switched over to Amsoil SS as a way of hopefully preventing the buildup of the sludge/carbon on the pistons and clogging of the oil control rings and the carbon that would cause the compression rings to stick in their grooves as well as stay cleaner up top of the heads in the valve train in the first place, an oil that has tested better by third party testing over typical shelf oil and also doing my best to run relatively short OCI. However in saying that I don't think there is any way to easily prove the oil I was using prior allowed for a buildup at the OCI I was doing, nor in the other direction to make claims the Amsoil is keeping everything clean either. There really isn't a window into the engine is there to know anything for certain even if oil samples were taken for example that showed still healthy oil being dropped out of the oil pan other than engine tear downs that extensive and expensive testing of oils does to actually visually see what is really going on inside the engine. I wish there was some easy method of seeing what is going on but I don't happen to be aware of that if there is.  
    • My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page
