    09 Double Cab TRD Off-Road
    Hi! :wave:

    We bought a new 2009 Double Cab with the TRD Off-Road package last week. It is in a handsome Black Sand Pearl coat. We love the chrome rear bumper and front grill with the black. We've gotten a lot of compliments on the truck such as "beautiful", "sexy", and "HOT". :D

    This is my first new vehicle (my wife's second) and I couldn't be happier. I almost went with a Subaru, but when we first saw the truck on the lot we fell in love. The test drive was just icing on the cake at that point.

    We plan on keeping it mostly stock, with a few personal touches here and there. The first order of business is a tonneau and maybe a tailgate lock. Next I am pushing for a roof rack (I think the factory roof rack with Yakima bars looks rockin). From there, who knows!? I have been reading through some of the cheap/free mods and getting all kinds of ideas... :drool:

    That's just the start of the great information I've found on this site already. The Towing Bible was great and I now know that I wasn't going insane when the radio decided to tune itself one click below where I set it. I also learned about a new off-road park not too far away. We're definitely going to have to check it out.

    Eye candy (she already got a little dirty...):
