    I'm sure some of you remember the ordeal I've been through trying to get this truck. I was particular about what I wanted and the dealer went from not telling me he could get it in, to saying he didn't think it was going to work and encouraging me to look at other vehicles, causing me to look at going all the way to Pennsylvania to purchase it only to have my local dealer calling me near the deadline I imposed on them and telling me they were able to get it!


    Well I was able to pick it up Thursday and spent the entire night installing a new Head-Unit (Pioneer Avic-Z110BT), and today was spent installing Weathertech visors, mats and windshield deflector (thinking of removing it and selling though) and a line-x'd TRD skid plate. I need to give it a wash and a wax but couldn't wait to get some photos online! I had to rinse it off due to the pollen that is accumulating in Alabama right now!

    Still to come: Weathertech rear visors for the access cab (they sent me the ones for a double cab so I have to return/exchange them), iPod adapter, bluetooth steering wheel controls, tool box, nerf bars/side steps.

    Pretty much stock
    personally i'd go without the rear deflectors for the windows...they just stick to the glass. I'd be different if they were functional, Unless you just want it to match i suppose. Another thing you might wanna do is take out the rear headrests if you don't have riders back there, its been my favorite mod so far.

    Good lookin truck!

    Yeah I hadn't thought about removing the rear headrests but I will likely do that. I am kind of OCD and think the rear deflectors make the vehicle look more symmetrical even if they aren't functional (neither is the hood scoop, but I like it, haha).

    Good looking truck. The only way it could be any nicer is if were in Desert Sand Mica.

    That's a pretty sweet looking truck. Did you paint the grill, or is that the factory color?

    congrats. I just got my truck a couple days ago too. its like looking for diamonds to find the rights specs for these trucks. but, well worth it. Also, you arent b/s about the pollen, I didn't even bother washing my truck. shits bad in the SouthEast.

    I like how you immediately get to modding! :thumbsup:

    I don't know how you feel about the rear headrests, but I hated them so much that I took them out. Sort of an in-depth process, but heres the link for what you need to do.
