    So awesome to see the off-road community helping each other out. Definitely a different breed of people. ??

    Did they just take down their FB page?

    Future for Pelfreybilt

    So it’s our fault for pulling our money back that the “investors” pulled out. I call BS!

    Nice I’ve been looking at their stuff too. ??

    Future for Pelfreybilt

    I’m also starting to see some money return. Thanks to the awesome customer service of my bank, not Pelfreybilt. I even have a pending return for the 1K deposit I made way back in February.

    Future for Pelfreybilt

    Was that their official response after Labor Day? ??‍♂️ I started the process with my bank to get my money back too. Hope I get all of it back so I can go give it to CBI ?

    Future for Pelfreybilt

    I just can’t believe they continued to take orders knowing they could not fulfill the orders on their own. Who would invest in a company that has a huge backorder to fill? The announcement I’m looking for to “right the ship” is that they will honor a full refund regardless which method used...

    Future for Pelfreybilt

    Thanks, I just checked and forgot I did make a card payment for the front bumper, and used my bank for the new rear back in February. Definitely a lesson learned to stick with credit card purchases for big items. I’ll wait it out and see what news they have for us before requesting a refund though.

    Future for Pelfreybilt

    1. No one is answering any phones or emails. 2. I didn’t pay with a credit card. 3. Before all this, a friend of mine was refused a full deposit refund. 4. For order cancellations they charge 20%.

    Future for Pelfreybilt

    Can you explain how to do that?
  12. SD_Taco

    Future for Pelfreybilt

    Uggh...really tired of hearing they are “good” people. I guess everyone bounced and customer service doesn’t matter anymore. But we’ll wait because we are #pelfreybiltfamily ??‍♂️

    Last I heard from @mh.meier was that they lost a few employees and material costs and shortages are killing them. But they’re trying to find better sources. Not very reassuring...

    Future for Pelfreybilt

    I thought a separate thread was needed regarding the recent news from Pelfreybilt which is currently going through unknown changes. This is very troublesome for many of us who have placed orders because we want to know: 1. Will we receive our parts as promised? 2. Do we still want to be...

    What was your first mod?

    Changed the headlights to led to match the surrounding led driving lights. Don’t know why Toyota did that. Then changed out the chrome grill.

    Doesn’t make any sense to pay for an update to fix problems that came from the manufacturer.

    Couldn't Stand Toyota Entune

    I’m also running the stealthbox, but was wondering if your experiencing a little bit of rattle from the plastic backing like mine when you let the bass hit. The rattle noise isn’t noticeable inside the cabin, but I could hear it outside the truck.

    Tepui Kukenam Ruggedized Sky 3...wow that’s a long name ?. But the materials seem pretty strong and the mat is comfy. Overall quality seems like it will last for a long time...or until I get tired of it. The best thing about it is that when you purchase from REI during their big sales where...

    Not sure the brand of fire extinguisher but I keep it in one of these boxes with tools and recovery gear. Pretty easy to get to.

    Hi-lift Mounts?

    I used to mount my hi-lift on my bed rail under my tonneau cover. But later discovered how difficult it is to get to it when you need it. I now mount it on the side of my roof rack to make it easier to get to when you need it. When it comes to recovery gear, first aid, and fire extinguishers, I...

    Thanks Rob, I’ll look into that.

    Exhaust Reroute

    No, I scraped on the crossover under the transfer case. The lowest point on the belly of the truck. I plan to put a skid plate down there but I would need to reroute the exhaust first.

    Has anyone done this? Looking to gain more ground clearance since it was the only place I scraped on my last trip. Looking for a shop near the San Diego area.

    I use the following two items: Midland 75-822 It’s handheld, so you can use it outside your truck if needed. It has a 12v power adapter if you don’t want to use batteries, and an antenna cable adapter if you want better reception. I attach it to an external antenna that has a magnetic base...

    905 Trails (Chula Vista)

    Everyone has been ignoring the signs there for years, but it's true people are getting ticketed for trespassing now. I noticed they're putting more plants and smoothing out some of the trails for the work trucks. Sucks because I love going down there.
