What owners say

They praise that it works with the tailgate up or down and with a trailer hitched, and four owners report six to 11 years of use, mostly on older trucks. The install draws the complaints: five owners fault AMP's instructions, and on the previous-generation Tundra, five owners sold the wrong part found it hit the bumper or sat crooked until they swapped it.
