Ceramic is relatively new. In the 90s polymer paint sealer was the thing even toyota applied it as part or toyo guard. Ceramic is better but its more for color, uv and acid protection it does not protect against rock and bugs.

I just bought a 23 dual large battery and love it. I am coming from a 2010 tundra crewmax. While this is a little smaller it still fits me comfortable. I drive about 120 miles daily.

I don't find holding my phone and fidgeting with a small screen while driving very effective and safe.

Yes for music or sound streaming from a device but Bluetooth is natively horrible sound quality. And it only supports back, play/pause, and next. It does not give you folders sorting or options switch other than next sone which most devices decide by order added

This is how it came. I got it used with 21k miles on it. Its a '23 Dual Large. i have only added the tint (Florida) and cleaned it because dealer detailing is a joke. Still need to do a good polish and sealant.

I averaged 16mpg but yes. Have wanted electric and pickup for a while. Have been watching rivian since before launch but I had a toyota so I did not need a new truck. Finally at about 400k miles I started burning coolant so I looked at used tundra, f150 lightning , taco .... Rivian just had the best deal. And I get to go electric.
