    That's why I put 35+. I'm not sold on 37s yet, just because tubbing would suck, and fiberglass +2" fenders wouldn't last down here. One guy here is running 37s and glass, but I don't know how he does it haha

    I would love to do all that ridiculous nonsense, but then I would need another truck to daily. Maybe I'll go buy a lottery ticket after work...

    All depends on the driver. You can hammer down and break everything. Or beat it and be smart about it and come out with minimal damage

    SR5. I didn't want the features of the premium at their price. If I did, I'd just install them myself at half the price haha

    True, and I'm pretty sure I'm not a good enough driver to pull off glass yet.

    They are both mine but I added Molly to the insurance and she saves me $400 a year in insurance now. I'll never win another fight again, but it's still worth it.

    Were you sure you'd win one even if that didn't happen?

    Did those happen at the same time or were you smart enough to take the same line twice, leading to two dents?

    Considering she's in law school, no. I'm used to losing arguments haha. Good point.

    I am wrestling with this choice myself.

    Except it would be a T4R TRD OR or Pro to replace the Charger.

    I didn't see much point in the other trim lines for me.

    Premium - Too much money for shit I could add myself and probably don't need. I definitely don't need heated seats and mirrors in TN.
    TRD Sport - Really just cosmetic, and more expensive. I wouldn't mind the hood scoop, but don't need it.
    TRD OffRoad - This thing is not going offload. That's what the truck is for. Way too much money for upgraded suspension and other things I don't need on the street.
    TRD Pro - Way too much money for a pavement princess. Really just paying for that TRD Pro grille...
    Limited - Can't fit, the sunroof lowers the ceiling. Way too much money for a DD. Hate that chrome bar across the front.

    So I stuck with the SR5.

    They definitely are in TN TW. Two of the guys wheel their T4rs and love them. I'm the third. More Corollas than F-150s down here.

    And that's exactly why I got the SR5! I kept the truck for fun, the T4r won't crawl. Why would I want an e-locker?

    Haven't seen a Sport edition. Just SR5/premium, TRD OR/premium, Pro, Limited/Nightshade.

    I got the TRD OR premium for the sunroof. I was worried I wasn't going to fit, but luckily the seats are height adjustable. Wish the 6spd was an option.

    Don't need heated seats or mirrors in TN, but you needed a 4WD daily driver? Why not a sports car? :boink::stirthepot:

    Just busting balls... nice 4runner!

    Yeah my mom used to have a T4r with a sunroof and I never fit well. Sat in one at the dealer and found the same thing. Even in my SR5 with the seat as low as it can go I don't have a huge amount of room. Good thing I'm done growing!

    I was originally going to get a 2wd, but was convinced to get a 4wd by my family and Molly. They all asked "but what if you move back somewhere cold?". It's easier to install heated seats and mirrors than do a 2wd to 4wd conversion haha
