Post some pics! I would get a set of aluminum skids in your situation. I have a steel set from Cali Raised, but they also offer them in aluminum. It's a solid upgrade but really keeps the weight down. They offer the skids individually, or as packages.

Can't wait to see more on power mods!

Yeah I have a OR Premium Hybrid. Absolutely love that thing.

Excellent feedback! I'll have to dig into it some more. I hear the hybrid motors can also be tuned. Definitely looking to squeeze more power out. I would be interested in a bigger turbo as well. I was told the motors can handle a good amount of power from the factory.

Do you have a picture of yours? If you used a good shop, the job would come out clean and hard to notice. Those "brush" guards just don't do much. A lot of people argue that they are damage multipliers in case of a small accident. Just a thought.

Interesting. Glad to see other alternatives hitting the market. Do you feel a big difference driving?

The lift kit will help, but mainly on road. When the suspension flexes to full compression, especially at full lock, the lift kit is irrelevant. That's why true tire fitment only happens when they don't rub in the extremes. Sure, on the road you will move the truck farther away from the tire...

It's likely that the factory skid plate referenced overhangs the cross member near where the bottom of the bumper is. The solution might be relatively straightforward, though. Like the previous gen (which also had similar issues with some skids) cutting the front lip off, while leaving the...

Solid comparison! Great info. Personally, regardless of who you are, I would recommend the hybrid package. It's just such a big improvement over the non-hybrid. And you get a lot of bang for your buck. A supercharger, install, tune, better gas, etc., will run over $10k in the long term. And the...

You might have some minor rubbing. But a positive offset with a 34" tire is on the less likely side to need any bigger cutting/trimming. Are you planning on off-roading at all or just driving on the street? Things usually rub a lot worse off-road.

No notice here either. And no issues yet.

Do you plan on wheeling or building the truck at all? I would recommend a dedicated set of sliders if so. They make a bunch of different variants. From high clearance angled ones, to others that are more flat and also act like a step.

Awesome! Love to see the data to back these things up. So is this something anyone can get? Or just this one specific tuner did this just for you locally? Just an ecu flash and tune? Or is there some kind of module?

Very nice! Looks like a comfortable setup. Definitely has some unique design elements. Looks like a lot of spots to attach accessories.

Can't wait to see what else you do with it! I like that seat delete. I don't really need the seats either. My dog is usually the only one back there.
