Best bang for the buck! 160$
Smittybilt 2781 5.65 CFM Universal Air Compressor
Found it to fill the fastest.
Many times I have not aired down and many times I have. you will tend to chew up the tires less if you air down. Nothing spetacular but going down to 25lbs helps immensely! Few...
Road noise is the difference between a softop and hardtop. Not much road noise in a hardtop. unless you want to compare it to a Mercedes or BMW. Compared to any other midsize truck and its the same. (I know as I had a Gen 3 Tacoma)
The JT Overland or the JLU Sahara would be a great option. Can go offroad if you like but is catered to the daily driver luxuries. The Mojave is more catered to running the sands... LOL
Why do you need all this if you are not going on trails?
KISS!
Jumper cables...maybe.
Tow strap..yes!
First Aid Kit.
Maybe a small foldable shovel
Being up north, space blanket ... maybe.
The rest of the crap is just taking up room. Put it in a different bag for when you decide to go on trails.
Placement is good. My wife is 5"2" and no complaints until I remove them when we go out on trails. She steps up on the step and slides in. Trust me!!! you want to remove these if you go out in rocks. I did a rather hazardous drop and banged up both on the passenger side. Pretty hard slam...
