    Congrats.... very happy for you. I prefer less flashy colors for my own vehicles but I love that color. I've had my MGM 2023 TRD OR Premium for almost 4 weeks and love it.

    A few, mainly added skids. I like leaving the suspension alone. I drive forest service dirt roafs in the desert west extremely extremely too fast. Toyota nailed this suspension going 65 across desert terrain. Changing it is dumb unless you have a specific need like crawling or mud.
    That looks amazing with the bronze on EML.. nice. Very nice.



    And welcome

    Welcome to owning a great truck. I purchased a, 2022 SR5 4x4 and was excited at first. But after owning a Tundra V8, I was immediately disappointed in the power of the, V6. Here are my recommendations which I have done on my truck. I am happy with it now...
    1. Purchase K&N Cold Air Intake:
    https://www.knfilters.com/cold-air-intakes
    2. Purchase Pedal commander:
    https://pedalcommander.com
    3. Purchase dual exhaust system
    https://www.extremeterrain.com/mbrp-black-series-dual-exhaust-system-side-exit-1619-35l-tacoma.html
    I did the above because I was unhappy with the stock power. You won't believe the change! It is an expense which is very worth the money. 20230119_150634.jpg

    I suspect that the Peddle Commander provided the biggest change on how the truck feels.

    Ive thought about the peddle commander but for different vehicles always been worried about warranty. The k&n cold air intake is not something im interested in, maybe a snorkel with a different cold air intake. As for the dual exhaust, how does yours sound? Do you have a video?

    The gear hunting issue many folks complain about doesn't really bother me but louder exhaust might make it an annoyance.

    I wonder if the dealer tossed in the receiver & ball for you.
    I bought a new 2019 off road & a 2022 off road . They didn't come with the receiver & ball.

    Congratulations on your new truck.

    Skip all that bs and tune it, you won't regret it. Without the tune I would have sold the truck. It really changed the truck.

    I believe in Canada that the receiver, mud flaps and door sill protectors come with our trucks as standard equipment.
