    Hello all.

    Just picked up my ‘18 DC TRDOR 4X4 in Super White last night.
    This is my first truck and I couldn’t be more stoked.

    Just found this forum and the wealth of info on here.

    Can’t wait to start getting mods done!

    Thanks everyone!

    My immediate upgrades will be side steps, tonneau, LED lights, and leveling kit.

    I’m diligently looking for the best options!

    I can’t help but smile every time I see the truck in the driveway.

    Great looking truck, congrats.

    How was your experience at Toyota of Orange? I was not a big fan of my salesperson and they wouldn't even take me trade in, oddly. Went to another dealership and totally different experience.

    Mine’s automatic.

    I actually didn’t deal with Toyota of Orange directly. My buddy is a broker and he got the truck from them.

    Thanks for the friendly greetings. Great truck and great community.

    Haha, studies indicated the white showed signs of a lower drag coefficient.

    I was originally in the market for cement grey. The only dealer I found that had one with the equipment I wanted would not budge on their above-sticker price.

    I’m not one to pay more for a color and the white was a close second anyway.

    Now that I have it, I really like the white.

    I found someone on Craigslist selling his OEM tonneau and OEM cast aluminum running boards so I got them today.

    Next I want the TRD Pro grille and blackout the wheels and emblems.

    Great taste in color and style. I went with the Bakflip bed cover and have had good luck with it.

    That’s pretty much my plan. I ordered mine with the tonneau cover, blackout kit, and cast running boards. And am doing the grill too. I also ordered some bumper shells and paint to match the truck.

    I am very happy with both add-ons, especially the running boards.

    They are not what I was expecting after looking at them online.
    They are more burly looking than I thought they would be. They have a rough texturing that I like and they look quite tough and rugged.

    The photos online made them look smooth and wimpy. At least that’s what I saw.
