Marks 2017, Barcelona Red Expeditionary Edition

I'm Starting this thread if nothing more than to document what Mods I have done, Just to keep track, LOL, This stuff gets too addicting,
Bought the truck new 30 Sept 2017, in Mobile Al. SR5 4x4, in Barcelona Red. Almost bought a PRO in white 4 Mo earlier. I'm actually happy I went the SR5 Route, as it has allowed more custom touchesCame with alloy rims, Factory bed liner, and rail system, Plus all the SR5 Upgrade stuff.
36,500.00, and did I mention the Sweet, Eye Catching, Panties Dropping Barcelona Red LOL

No photos of the vehicle as bought on the lot, but it didn't stay stock long.
Added 275/70 -18 BFG KO-2 tires, 825.00 shipped, good price on the tires, Sold the stock 255/70-18 Bridgestone tires w less than 50 miles on them for 400.00.
Then the Chrome Delete, added The Color Matched PRO grill and hood bulge From Roman, and the Black out Kit off Ebay, 670.00 for the hood kit, about 50.00 for the black out kit. Sold the Chrome for 275.00
Added OE style color matched flares from Dallas Toyota, and Fox Performance series Rear Shocks. another 600.00 or so, Damn it adds up LOL


Next up was upgrading the Stereo to a Kenwood 893s, -800.00, sold the factory stereo for 300.00. added a front Cam, and made one of the lighter ports "on" all the time. I like being able to charge stuff, or run a small compressor without the Key in.


Next was a Black series 30" light bar, 250.00,The SR5 version has plenty of room for more switches LOL

After that a couple little touches, Center Console organizer
,
and a rear hitch step LED, I want to change out the bumpers, so didn't want to go too crazy yet, not much light, but its ok for 40.00.

Latest Mod is to add Armor, P&P Steel, this stuff is not light, and was a bit of a chore to mount single handed. thankfully I had 2 floor jacks., Just back from Powder coating.

Still need to tweek it a bit, and swap some bolts around, 3/16 steel doesn't give much for minor adjustments, but does keep that tank covered.
Next up will be Steps/Sliders, still pretty happy with the Factory Front suspension, but we will see as the weight goes on, I may try and hold out on the front lift untill I wear out this set of tires. Also looking to swap out the bumpers. Many people like the TSS Sensors, I'm going the other way and adding Armor LOL
Will try and update this as I go along
