    2019 Cement DC Off-Road
    Hey everyone,

    I've had my 2019 Cement DC TRD Off-Road for about a month now - I love this truck.

    I am in the process of making it mine. So far I de-chromed and added the 2019 PRO grill. I am now in the process of procuring wheels and a lift. I am going back and forth on the wheel/tire set up but I think I have narrowed it down.

    Major positive takeaways:
    -I love the pop this truck has. The feeling of a big-ol V8 cannot be replicated with turbos on a 6. Just NO. I previously drove (and still own) a tuned BMW 335i coupe 400hp/400tq so that's saying something.
    -This truck is a TANK and will roll over anything with ease which is a nice piece of mind to have when on the road is in crappy conditions. Can't wait to take her to Mammoth next week for some snow.
    -It looks soooo mean. I constantly get compliments on the cement.

    Funny little things that I would change:
    -The windows roll up/down slow! I noticed it first and then I saw a post here, so I am not the only one. No biggie just a minor observation. Wouldn't be too bad with auto windows but oh well.
    -The stereo IS pretty terrible. Gonna make some mods on that soon.

    BTW - What are the biggest tires will fit on a stock set up? JK JK :)

    Nick

    PS: More pics to come once the wheels/lift are on.

    Welcome from another part of San Diego (Penasquitos). I was just in Mammoth last week and was pretty impressed how well the stock Michelins did in the snow. Have a good time!
