How much of a pain in the arse is getting an oil change in a TRD pro vehicle (with the skid plate)?

The east side of the Sierras is unreal. Get these books:


I wanted a manual more than anything else, it was a fun truck.

I was afraid of the jiffy lube people stripping the screws or bending the skid plate with too much torque on the nuts. If there is an easily accessible cutout, I guess it doesn’t matter.

Is the truck new? Wouldn't take it there with Toyota Care.

“It’s not that much. I got mine for 45K”

Close to the same here, 46k.
I think they went up slightly due to the change to Fox shocks, sunroof, and JBL subwoofer system.

Once they started making noise about the Bronco, I almost waited another year. But my pickup was beginning to show its age.

I’m very happy I didn’t wait.

I’ve been out West a lot, but never to Moab, the Sierras, stuff like that. Never trail riding out there.

I’m looking forward to planning some road trips.

Those Fox 2.0s aren't cheap. I recently had to have my front struts replaced in my 09. I inquired about the 2.0s. The guy at the dealership must have correctly assessed my purchasing power and kindly suggested the stock Bilsteins.
