    thanks! They’re the AVS matte deflectors. Would definitely recommend!

    You say the stereo is great in your 2021 Pro? I have a 2020 Pro and the stereo sucks! No base no matter what setting I have it on. The stereo in my 2017 Limited was much, much better!

    Lol. I was thinking the same :rofl:

    But in reality not sure if I would even switch given I live in a place with lots of snow, and halogens produce more heat to help with icing

    I'm an audio guy. I wouldn't compare it to some high end aftermarket kit, but for a stock JBL with a small sub it sounds pretty great.

    Agreed I consider myself an audiophile and the JBL sounds wonderful. Especially with the lossless Tidal app (though spotify sounds good through it too). Also, welcome to TW! It’s a great place.

    Canada Eh!
    Oncoming traffic flashing you is no reason to brag...simply means you should adjust your lights a little lower. Very simple to do. The adjustment from the factory is very level. Should be adjusted down a couple degrees. If you’ve got a levelling kit, then for the love of god please adjust them.

    I remember reading somewhere Toyota receiving allocades for the new LED headlights. I love mine, night and day difference from my prior turd gens. Plus that sequential turn is sex.

    The more I look at your pics OP the more I'm giving thought to trading for a 2021 LR, really growing on me.

    If they can give me a fair price on my mint 2020 Cement trade and no mark up I'll jump, Tacomas aren't popular here in Chicagoland so shouldn't be too hard, trade will be the biggest factor, but always wanted a Pro and I'm really digging LR, may even opt for a manual.

    I was so set on getting a Cement OR. It wasn't until I saw the LR in person (on a Tundra Pro at my local dealership) that I was completely sold. The color is so unique and it really does change the look of the truck depending on what light it's in.

    Cement does the same, but I'm starting to like LR more than my Cement and 12 tacomas in still haven't owned a Pro lol.

    The problem in CO is that Pros are marked up 5-10k over MSRP. Until I found my LR in Kansas City priced at MSRP. The way I saw it, I was about to pay just $3.5k less for an OR with Premium and Advanced Tech packages. I'm so glad I went with the Pro. The color is unreal and it will hold its value that much more than the OR.

    True and makes sense if you can only get that sized of a discount. For me I've always been closer to 12-13% off MSRP, my 2020 loaded OR only paid $39k opposed to $47k MSRP on a Pro, so made more sense to me at the time. But with crazy good used trade right now, may make a jump to a Pro and LR is well LR.

    39k?? Damn.. Sell it privately in CO and make yourself and extra $5k easy. It'll sell fast since cement is so sought after. Does your local dealer have an LR Pro?
