    As I said in my intro, I took over what was my wife's '06 Speedway Blue 4x4. White is a better color for me as a DD, and the idea of a Pre being much simpler, and 300 lbs lighter seemed appealing. Carmax gave me $18500 on the '06 (we owned it), against $19995 for this '08. So for $1500, (plus DMV) I'm pretty happy. Both are/were V6 6 speeds.

    Thanks! :cheers:,
    I do too, but the front ends were too much White for me until I saw a few members post with Satoshi's and blacked out headlights. White Gen 1 TRD's are also one of my favorite's.

    Audio = #1 priority
    Pretty sure I'll go with a Pioneer DD head, Focal speakers, and make my own rear floor box for a sub. ;)

    If it's too much white for you I would consider painting, plastidipping, of bed linering the lower bumper valence.

    Thanks, I am considering that too. But with the black Revotek's and the Billet grille I'm good with it for now. Doesn't Sock Monkey also make a valence overlay?

    Yes, I forgot to mention that. He makes a black vinyl one I believe.
