    None yet. Picked it up yesterday. Open to suggestions. My first car was a 1987 Toyo reg cab, long bed 4x4 and bullet proof 22R 4cyl. Underpowered but unstoppable none the less (makes sign of the cross). I have since (2005) been playing with Jeeps because the roofs and doors came off without mods. Now retired and want doors and roofs, so back to my roots.
    Hi All,
    Doing my due diligence and introducing myself as instructed. I bought a used 2023 base 4x4 yesterday (2 Oct 24) because it was too good of a deal to miss. Personally, I have found it’s way cheaper to build what you want exactly how you want it as long as you have the time. I just retired and have nothing but time, so I’m going to build it exactly how I want. Totally open to suggestions, but keep in mind this is my daily driver. I’m not building a rock crawler, mud bogger or solo purpose overlander. I want to, but this one isn’t that one.

    Looking primarily to start with intake/exhaust upgrades.


    Thanks all and looking forward to any advice!

    Thanks, so since joining I will redact my original statement of “intake and cat back to start”. Old V8 habits die harder than black mold in a Florida RV. New statement - “already upgraded sound, weathertek’d my floors and seats”

    Wheels and tires seem the next logical step but don’t want to get anything with a bad rep. So I’m here reading everything I can find and looking for any advice I can get.
