    Here is my new '13 DC 4 Cylinder. I love it so far. Nothing major to it so far.
    Cabelas seat covers, added curt hitch and wiring. ARE canopy with Thule rack. Last project was plastidip grill, emblems, and wheels....

    Stock wheels, no lift. Its a Prerunner with the SR5 package. I definitely dislike the dunlops so those will be the first to go.

    Hey pe, :)

    That's a really sharp 2.7. :thumbsup:

    I could be wrong, but those sure don't look like steel wheels. They look like really nice Toyota alloys.

    Sweet truck! Had a silver '12 DC 4 banger PreRunner SR5. Put LCE headers in and it definitely gave it more pep. Take care of it and it should last you a life time. The 2TR is a tough engine! :)

    I believe the 4 cylinder DC's started coming out on the 2012 models. I've seen more PreRunner SR5 models than I have 5luggers (although they do exist).

    Tooter, yes very glad they are the alloy and not the 5lug steelies.
    Thanks TPJ... if you dont mind me asking what did the headers set you back? you noticed a pretty big difference?

    Thats awesome... I would love to have some more get up and go but I think I will attack some new rubber and some type of leveling kit first. So much to do and so little $ :).
