I have the PP option on my 18 and feel it was money well spent.

It’s going to be Silver...what could go wrong...2008 Tundra Silver looks great.....Please no auto car wash... :frusty:
I think it all depends on what you're using it for. If you're not on the track with it then I just don't see the point. More expensive brakes to replace, that aren't necessary for street and it's more expensive to find winter tires and wheels if you drive in the snow. also suspension is little more stiff for crappy roads
If you live where it's warm all year and nice roads to air it out then i'd say its worth it.
just my 2 cents
I see your 63 and raise you 70 degrees... the temperature here today in so cal : ) lolYou guys probably get more bad weather than me in south Denver, is 63 today.
we get over 300 days of sun a year.
Anyway my car will NEVER see snow.....I got the tundra for that...car probably wont see rain unless I get surprised by it. So for me I think it is a great deal seeing as I have no intentions of any modifications. I know this is always a debate here and Ive been part of those but I just made my decision based on my needs.
I see your 70 and raise you 80 in south Florida today. But then I remember I live in Florida and I concede to your SoCal.I see your 63 and raise you 70 degrees... the temperature here today in so cal : ) lol
Of course I think we have sun 400 days a year... umm anyone have some water we can borrow? Lol
Me too, I lived in SoCal for 5 years and last year moved to north Carolina, all the speed limits around here are 55 mph and not a twisty road within hours of me, It's pretty rough. That said, still went with the PP because eventually I'll be leaving here, and I'll kick myself later if I didn't get it just to save a few bucks.If you live next to the mountains = Performance pack worth it for sure!
I’m jealous of you all right now
This is probably an unpopular choice, but I've been running the PS4S tires on mine in the freezing (down to around 20 degrees), as long as there wasn't ice or snow on the ground, and they have been absolutely fine. I tried this with the PZeros on my 16 GTPP and I wouldn't recommend that. Ultimately, I'd buy a set of legitimate winter tires and use those when needed and just run the PS4S when they aren't needed.Just ordered yesterday and can probably change it if need be...
I wanted it because I loved the wheels. Those black rims are hot with the low profile tires. I drove it and it handled well. The Brembos were touchy in city traffic although that may have been because the car had all of 23 miles.
But living in the NE that means those summer only tires will need to swap for all seasons so I can drive in the cold but not snow. Another $1k. Since it's a staggered setup any tire warranties are cut in half. Not many options in those sizes either.
I'm not sure the rest would be of value to me as I'll never track it, and live in the NE where we don't have those awesome mountain roads like you guys out west, etc. I want a car that I can drive for 2-3 hours and not feel too beat up.
For now I'm keeping my $4k but may change it as I'm on the fence.
I stopped modding my Stangs 3 or 4 Mustangs ago. Factory OEM Or Bust!
That noted, saying "I have PP1" or "mod x" or "mod z" is largely boasting rights and seldom serves any functional purpose for the vast majority of owners.
Obviously, people can still do whatever they want. But that needed to be said, so I said it.
