    Hey y'all,
    In 2011, X-Runners dried up in the Pacific Northwest as Toyota stopped shipping any to Washington and Oregon sometime during the year. I wanted to buy a 2012, but none were being allotted to the Pacific Northwest. I could have taken a flight to the San Francisco area and drove one home, but I wanted to buy where my truck could be serviced. My closest dealer still had a new 2010, and would discount it nicely; so that's what I bought. It had a 6-CD changer; so that came out, and an aftermarket single HD radio/CD head went in so that I could use a USB music player through the stock audio system with sub woofer. I waited too long to add a supercharger; so I'm waiting until the company that built them for TRD makes them available to Toyota dealers. The pricing for the TRD big brake kit escalated far above the StopTech kit; so I ordered the StopTech brake kit from Underdog Racing. The brakes are GREAT! The OEM Bridgestone summer tires were pretty awful, and worn highway "wagon tracks" really wanted to tug on the steering wheel and move the truck around. Pirelli Zero Nero tires made a world of difference.
