    Hey guys, been around TW for awhile, but finally putting up a new member thread! Have been loving my 2016 TRD OR DCSB since last spring. Been on a number of trips with it and just recently got a topper to replace my bedrack. Can't wait for another year of adventures!

    Preferably would keep it stock height, we do a lot of long distance and not a ton of aggressive off-roading. Built it to be versatile and fun, no big lift or tires planned for the future.

    I bet you guys aren't allowed to park in a lot of your friend's/family's driveway. My in laws (all live in the mitten) always get in a stink about me driving a Toyota.

    Toyota has a research facility in Ann Arbor, big Denso plant in Battle Creek. Holland has a big auto parts supplier that makes interior parts. My Toyota has a bunch of Michigan made parts.

    The west side of the state isn't so bad about that, but I do get asked how I like my "Power Wheels" version of a truck by all my domestic truck owning friends haha
