    Pro. Better for Instagram since it's exclusive with fancy suspension.

    Either Silver Sky, MGM, or Super White. I believe that all three colors will be fast.

    You my friend have done exactly what I plan if things work to my advantage. Platinum or possibly 1794 and upgraded suspension, wheels and tires.

    Awesome truck!! Can you give specifics on wheels tires, what height are your Kings at, rear setup, UCA's, etc. Trimming involved and/or BMC? Your truck looks like I want mine to look.

    I like the grill of the 1794 but want the color matched grill shroud and front bumpers the Platinum has. Also I like the wood wheel and wood interior accents of the 1794 but the black seats of the Platinum. Plus the 1794 can be had with the TRD Off Road package which I only want due to the wheels. Damnit Toyota give us some customization offers!! I want some things form one package that the other dosen't have and vise versa. My ideal setup would be Platinum with wood trim and steering wheel but TRD OR wheels and about 2-2.5" lift with 295/70r18 tires.

    The TRD off road wheels are easy to pick up as take offs, and due to availability they are cheap. Just check here -> https://www.tundras.com/forums/marketplace-wheels-tires.49/

    I had to check out the Army Green Pro while getting my oil changed at the dealership. Had it in the DC configuration, had it been CM... maybe traded mine in while I was there. But then, I sat in it. Those seats aren't near the quality or comfort of the Platinum. Just don't see myself making long trips in it. Wife would have hated it, and so would I..guess I'm getting old.

    I'd go with wiser, but I get it ... I have the same concern for seat quality and comfort.

    I LOVE my Limited seats, but some people aren't happy with them, I notice.:notsure:

    Good looking truck, I'm running 275/60/18 on my Limited OR with stock wheels and suspension.

    Air lift, black out emblems, wheels, tonneau cover, tires, led lighting, hidden step rail, remote start.
    Go Platinum all the way. 8 inch Dirty Deeds Exhaust, trd airflow accelerator and filter, toytec boss coils and shocks, Firestone ride rite air bags with an airlift compressor and wireless controller, and a trd rear sway bar. The front coils are big enough I didn't add the trd sway bar in front. And the rear sway bar makes a HUGE difference in corners at high speed. The tires are Nitto 295/60/20's with Method wheels. It drives great, and sounds like a beast when you get on it...

    Thanks!
    I went with the method mesh. I think it’s the 306s. 35s Goodyear duratracs.
    The kings are set to 3 in front with a 2inch shackle in the rear. Added the amp steps and the Trd dual exhaust.
    Yes the bmc was necessary.

    I've got the Dirty Deeds 8", air flow accelerator, and drop in TRD filter. Yes the BA system is BA for Bad Ass!! Your truck looks great. I really want bronze wheels if I go aftermarket.

    We went platinum as others have said for the same reasons. Can always change suspension but harder to add creature comforts. Wanted power folding mirrors and cooled seats! We already added TRD cat back, TRD rear sway bar, set of rock warrior wheels/tires ready to go since I had a flat. Next up suspension.

    My aggravation is I have a set of 3 month old RB20 steps and a Dirty Deeds system I just bought in the group buy. I will be removing those but my dealer typically stocks Platinums with overpriced Toyota steps, TRD exhaust, and other crap. All I want is a sunroof and bedliner in Silver Sky but preferably Super White.
