    New owner of a 2016 sr5 4x4 double cab with the TRD package.

    I drove nothing but trucks my whole life until 2012 when I caved and bought a new Prius. Finally had to give the Prius to the wife and get back into a truck. This my first Toyota pickup, and while my gas funds hate this truck, I absolutely love it. Put on a new camper shell, bed rug, bilstein 5100s in front to level it out, and some bfg ko2s for now, with plans for much more as money permits. Looking forward to ready these threads and getting to know guys in this forum.

    Here's the truck as it is now. People might think I'm crazy but I'm not a fan of the TRD wheels, ended up giving them to a close friend and taking his base wheels and plasti dipping them (along with the grill) until I get new ones. I plan on doing a build thread with all the future mods I haven planned. Also took off the tundra and TRD decals for a cleaner look.
