    As the title says, greetings from the land in the north, where we live in igloos, ride moose to work, and truck parts cost and arm and a leg. I've finally decided to become a contributing member of society after lurking on TW for about a year. :D

    I bought a 2017 TRD OR DCSB in BBP back in August last year; happy to report I love it and haven't had any issues with it so far. Mod-wise, my taco is fairly stock since my money tree hasn't sprouted yet... just the few add-ons pictured below.

    Shot from earlier this week

    This past winter

    My favourite mod; I dislike the dinky mirrors OEMs always provide that you have to re-adjust every time you sit a little differently

    Upgraded interior lights to LEDs; side-by-side comparison with OEM; a quick and cheap improvement

    DIY sliding drawer; turned out better than I expected

    Thanks for reading, and nice to meet you all. Cheers!
