    Bone stock for now....
    I purchased a 2013 TRD Sport DCSB right before Christmas and after lurking for a few months decided it was time for a new member intro. This is technically my second Toyota truck, the first being an early 80's model I bought in college for $1100.

    Here's how she sits today with just over 6,000 miles

    WeatherTech mats front and rear
    Caltrend neoprene front seat covers

    TRD Shift Knob
    TRD Cat back exhaust...installed 2 days ago
    WeatherTech mudflaps all around

    I love this truck!!!

    Nice truck.

    How do you like the shifter knob? I've been eyeballing it on Amazon for a while now, haven't pulled the trigger on it.

    I like it a lot. It is smaller than the stock knob, but it fits my hand comfortably. I do a fair amount of shifting despite the fact it is an auto and definitely prefer the look and feel of the TRD knob.

    TRD exhaust sounds bad ass. I love mine. Compared to stock...not even a fair comparison. Deep an throaty. A bit of resonance in the cab but fades away at cruising rpms. Perfect IMO.

    If you have the money to swing it I strongly suggest it.

    How much did you pay for the TRD shift knob? My dealer says it's $80, but I'm not looking to spend that much. Thanks in advance
