Rubber band included in price, but dealer did fill up one
tank for free.
Should not complain, it's a great truck sounds like the old studebaker V8 I had
( when the turbo kicks in)

Used to hit the town in my younger days in an old Studebaker painted in undercoat
grey, she was a beaut, got T-Boned one day and I'm glad I was in her as we would have been stuffed in just about anything else, tough as nails. Congrats on the new Rig..

Jeez Al, I'd hate to see what Toyota would charge for a reconditioned one and fitting labour...........probably $250. Should go aftermarket ;)

We used to call those "Vernier Elastic Bands" as they held all the slop one way!!!

Jeezuss Al, that looks high tech. I wonder if it has a part number if you were to buy one for a spare while travelling.
Kind regards
