    Thanks Sam..Your delivery got me pumped.....Love the Barcelona Red but I stayed "safe" Loving the new Hitachi Shocks. Stiff but pliable. I don't hit my head on the moonroof when I run over a paper cup......


    Now if we only had the roads here I enjoyed in San Diego and Las Vegas......LOL

    Stay Safe on two...

    I 'll let you know in six years when it fades LOL....I don't think so. I actually took some polish to it and my dark cloth did not turn white...I put a coat of Zaino on it tonight.
    OK so I downloaded and set the apps up for Pandora,iHeart Slacker , Yelp, Moviephone, Through Entune. Very easy to use. QI Charging is the bomb.

    The only thing I have found I miss is auto door lock when leaving. My hand opens the locked cabin when I have the fob but I have to remember to lock it manual or using the FOB when I leave.....Probably should RTFM

    Replaced interior lights with LEDs.

    Fefiinately need to wipe that crap off the tires tomorrow

    Excellent deal! So far, I have one dealer in my area at $1500 off MSRP. Calling another dealer tomorrow. Shooting for $2000 off.

    Thanks Man...Yeah can't go too wrong with White Black or Silver. Best selling vehicle colors in the USA......I guess some of us are are too safe and boring boring...Wish I had the nuts to buy the Inferno or Barcelona Red. I am an "under the radar" type to some degree.

    I'd be surprised if they stopped using single stage paint with the 2016 MY.

    Yeah I don't know.But this is my fifth white Toyota and I never had issues with the paint. I took a black micro fiber to it with some Meguiar's Deep Cut polish and nothing white came off...Tried the same on the Wifes White CRV. Both seemed to be either cleared or the paint is hard a nails.

    In any case I threw a coat of Zaino Z3 on it.....Just in case

    I use to check for real leather by rubbing an area but all today's leather is vinyl covered so leather conditioner never gets to the actual hide. May as well use 303.

    Congrats on the new Toy!! Glad everything came to fruition as you hoped (options and honoring the deal). You may have gotten the best "deal" as of yet, at least via this forum. Jelly!!

    within the main display under setup or something close to it, there should be an option to set door locks to lock at speed (mine on the 14 runner lock at 14mph). if there is no option for it, the other way is to get Toyota techstream (software) and cable off ebay/Amazon for around $20-$50. it will open up a lot more features to modify that the basic head unit options wont let you configure.

    on the son's 15 camry all the stuff I wanted to change on it was in the headunit so I didn't need to hookup techstream for anything.


    edit : forgot to add, congo rats on getting yours :)

    congrats, we didn't really get a "deal" but they gave us more than what we were thinking for our trade in. In fact, I made them give me more than my first quote, and what was close to private sale. We paid $38k for our 4x4 sport with the tech/prem and jbl, with tint and some other shit for finger nail scratches. I did it because my wife did screw the paint under her door handles on her last car. Over priced from the dealer but good peace of mind.

    I'm still happy overall.

    Sweet looking ride! It sucks playing the waiting game but there's nothing like that call from the dealer telling you your trucks finally in. :dancingbacon: I was torn between the white,silver and quicksand but being the the N'east (for now) white is almost as bad as black to take care of with all the slush/snow. I have a silver one on order now and trying to get my dealer to change it to quicksand but will be happy with either one.

    With every deal made that is the most important thing......When people are happy with their deals, that's all that matters. A 4X4 would have cost me another $3000...I just don't need it though I was tempted.

    I bought some of that 3M clear protector on Amazon. I will install it where needed.
