The sag I was referring to wasn't the popup so no issues with the struts. From pictures it looked like they just had too much fabric on certain panels of the tent so it's "floppy".
Regarding torque specs, GFC support on their forums specified the following in case it's helpful for you
I've seen a very long thread on GFC forums where owners of the new GFC V2 pro tents are reporting way too much fabric causing excessive tent sag even when the wedge is fully deployed. This also causes very noisy flapping in windy conditions. Is your tent taut when deployed and can you share a...
7' 1" w/ beef bars! Heck I think that might even clear my garage doors.
Not sure how you achieved 19.5 mpg. I've still to cross 19mpg on a single tank, and that's with a light foot during break in. I have noticed 0.1 mpg gain average every tank so far so maybe it'll settle in.
The weight...
Thank you, this is very helpful. The LP perks are hard to overlook.
15-16 mpg ain't bad - I'm averaging about 18.8mpg bone stock hand calculated but that's just over 1,200 miles on the odometer.
Customer service and standing by their product is going to be really important. As a newer company...
I'm with you, I bought the truck to use it. While I won't abuse it, I don't want it to sit idle for 99% of its life as a one truck pony.
Agree lesser is still capable, and I know this stuff is not really necessary; we've gotten by just fine with a basic setup previously. If there's a will...
Thank you both for thoughtful responses. I do recognize the TH and 32"+ A/T tires aren't the greatest daily driver choice. Coming from a gen 2 with off-road tires less all the gen 4 improvements, and a Chevy Express conversion van before that, this combination is still a significant improvement...
I've been going back and forth between the 2 options and thought I'd ask current owners in this community to share some real world experiences, your considerations when you made your decision, and maybe help with some questions.
My use case:

If you can't shake it loose, It's easier to unhook the air bag assembly (it's a whole unit, no need to disassemble or unplug) than to remove the glove box. I had to get behind there to inspect a dealer installed "security alarm" over the weekend
General steps going by memory are :

Was working on the truck today and out the corner of my eye I spotted the wife staring at the MOLLE panels with a mischievous look...3 minutes later...
Perfect fit for Crocs Jibbitz charms I had laying around.
The rack will come off eventually when I get a camper, but till then I guess this...
MotorTrend just did a review article and said it's officially rated for 35" but they pushed it to 40"+ with no issue. They didn't quote a source so take for what it's worth.
See the little icon on the top left says FI? My dealer told me that means it's still being held and not released yet so it's not about sometime being available to go drive it the 3 hours.
Re-reading what I wrote, I wasn't quite specific or clear enough. "Lifted all holds" was in reference to the specific silver TH, not necessarily all TH's, Toyota is cranking through and inspecting each one.
For the silver TH, dealer showed me the pipeline view. He highlighted that every field...
Life has an odd way of working out.
In a twist, a different dealer I wasn't working with had a bronze oxide 6' TH become available and already delivered at the lot over the weekend in LA. This had a later build date (6/18) than the one I had on hold at my primary dealer (5/28).
Ended up...
Could try hot staples and paint repair over it?
Or you could embrace it - drill small holes on either side, zip tie it together, and tell everyone it's battle scars from your adventures. I do that on my race motorcycles.
Thanks for sharing. Great list. Here's a few additional things from my running list if it helps anyone:
- check for wiper trim warping
- check for credit card sized key
- check for general panel alignment
- check light bar/fog lights work
- check inverter works
- check compressor works (perfect...
And the saga continues for my specific TH...

Talked...
Thanks for the updated info. Mine had a build date of 5/28 so hopefully I'll get a call from my dealer next couple of days! Will share more if I hear from my dealer (Hayward).
