    So my starting platform is a 2016 DCSB SR5 4x4 in MGM. I used to have a tacoma with a similar style in mind but it was a 98 extra cab. This is my first dealership purchased vehicle and I have been extremely happy with the truck since I got it. Im no extreme off roader but am an avid outdoorsman and would like this truck to be at least mildly trail ready.

    Current Upgrades Purchased:

    265/70r17 Nitto Ridge Grappler
    17x8.5in Method Mesh Wheels in Flat Black
    RCI Bed Rack to hold RTT
    pulled air dam (no money needed :D)

    Next upgrade:

    RTT (probably going tepui, but am keepin an open mind)

    Month or two down road:

    3in lift, not sure what brand yet.
    UCA's
    Ditch mount LED pods
    Front runner roof rack with slimline 2

    Current look

    Here are the tires not mounted (waiting on rims)

    IMG_1716.jpg
    IMG_1712.jpg
    IMG_1711.jpg

    Will post more pictures of setup once rims arrive as well as bed rack.

    Those tires look massive. Are they a pretty big 265 would you say?

    They looked much bigger than the 265 bfg's I had on my old truck, I thought it was because the duramax was so much bigger but I think it is the tire itself.

    Ordered My CVT Mt. Shasta Standard Pioneer today, will wait to post pictures of the RCI Bed rack until the Tent arrives but I am extremely excited to get it mounted up!

    Also, have about 1000 miles on the Ridge Grapplers now and all is still well. They perform great on and off road as well as the snow. Haven't done much other than service roads so far though.

    Totally stock suspension, they don't rub at all on the road or off-road from what I can tell so far. I have yet to fully tuck one in the fenders yet though.

    Absolutely in love with my CVT Mt. Shasts, mounted on the RCI bed rack. Tent has tons of space, and is rock solid on the rack. I would absolutely recommend both of these products!
