    You seem to make a lot of assumptions and want to prove a point when there’s none to prove. Mine is full stock and will be until this winter when I’ll put winter tires on (a bylaw over here). Is this considered a mod? Either way, why do you want to know?!?

    I have a cap on the way but other than that this is how this truck will be. Any mods I've done to any vehicle are after something is broken or worn. I hate replacing perfectly serviceable parts just for the sake of it.

    Not my vote, but stock suspension regardless. Stock wheels. Only mods are 33" tires and armor/RTT. Going on 3 years, 45k miles.

    love it! This is a perfect example for why a Pro is a good option for some.

    it’s in the Poll..wheels/suspension. The primary reason people spend mark up for the Pro.

    Stock here other than tires. No plans to mod it. Bought it just because I liked the looks of it way better than the OR I had before. Long term cost of ownership of Pro vs OR will be the same (from previous experience)

    but resale/trade value higher. If I wasn’t planning on big mods, I would definitely consider a Pro, but I would find a used CPO so I didn’t have to fuss with dealer mark up shenanigans

    This isn’t my thread, or my poll. The numbers speak for themselves, I’m glad you enjoy your truck, but stop trying to frame your own narrative. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, and my take on the Pro model has been fair and pragmatic. Thanks for your concern though :pccoffee:

    We digress. After the nightmare with the Eibach pro shock upgrades, I finally got my truck back.

    What exactly happened there? I was following for a while but dropped out before they actually made a set. Now it sounds like they messed them up.

    looking good bro! Do you have a little rake, or is it the angle? Your front seems high?

    Eibach hasn't concluded anything, but the Toyota mechanics (multiple looked at it) think the added length created a hot spot on the hat because they no longer flatten the spring tops. This resulted in squeaks/premature wear. They suspect this will be an issue with OEM after long-time use, but no one in a 2020 on TW has mentioned anything. Eibach paid for install and parts, so it's a wash for me. So far, the ironman FPC seem to have a similar feel, though not as "floaty," if that makes sense. I haven't decided if that's a good or bad thing yet - got it back a few minutes before I posted.

    Thanks! I'm hoping the picture is deceiving. I need to go out and measure, but the mechanic claims it's actually closer to level than it was before.

    So hey, Chaz, I have this pristine set of front fox coilovers. They are special edition in that they squeak a little. $1,200. Venmo only. No refunds.

    I agree with the mod part. I would have started with Trail or OR non premium if mods were in the picture. Luckily markups aren't a thing to contend with in Canada for the most part so I got mine at like $48k when converted to US $. (MSRP)
