    I do plan on off roading with it but for now it's too crazy off roading because of my job and location. My main goals as far as upgrades go are rock sliders, skid plates, suspension upgrade (3" max lift), exhaust system upgrade, wheels and tires, seat covers (clazzio has the beat one I've seen), hard folding tonneau cover, LED interior lights, and LED off road lights (too many to pick from).

    Haha, Yeah you're right. Way too many to pick from! I'm in a dilemma right now as what to buy next....Ive got about 1200 saved up for more truck mods...question is, do I save up a lot more and change the suspension out to Kings and Dakars....Do I save a little more and upgrade the gears...Do I order bed bars and RTT? Finish buying the rest of my skids? Purchase a winch? haha. My mind runs 90MPH on all these things haha.

    What type of shocks are you running with? Ive been debating about either Fox or Bilstein or Icons. I think protection over performance is something you can never go wrong with.

    Bone stock as of now.
    @Sankong I noticed your comment about the GTR's and the morimoto XB fog's... I'm also interested in doing this combo... how's the lighting? does it blend well? any problems with either brand? Pro's and con's?

    Noticed you're also in the bay area... thumbs up!:thumbsup:

    Had it on since summer. So far no problem. I can't say how long they will last since it's my first time having them. At the moment I can recommend this combo. gtr is 6000k temp and morimoto is 5500k. to the naked eye i cant tell there is a difference between the temp color. Pros on the gtr is its passive cooling and not active so u dont have to worry about the fan going out. The con is you do have to pull the headlight out a little bit to put the bulb in since the heatsink is a little bigger and it is more pricier compare to other led options. Pros for morimoto is it comes as a whole housing so they beam projection is very good. It's also a simple plug and play. Very easy to install. Don't forget to mark the previous fog light projection beam as you do have to adjust the morimoto after you install them. So far i can't think of a con. Price is very reasonable in my eyes. Sorry for the late response. Hope this helps you with making your decision.

    2016 Tacoma TRD off-road
    3 inch lift, Falken Wildpeak tires,
    This is what I’ve done to my 2016 TRD PRO off-road. Truck is all-purpose so far in all-weather driving: commute, daily driver, multi-thousand mile road trips, camping, and mild off-road driving. And also moving furniture.

    Truck came with the tri-fold cover.
    Rock sliders.
    Lift kit
    Bilstein shocks-5160 rear, 6112 front
    Falken Wildpeak AT tires
    Full brush guard with LED light bar
    Yakima roof rack
    LED bulbs in everything, interior and exterior, except license plate lights
    LED hood light
    LED bed light
    Seat covers
    Seat heaters
    Weather tech floor mats, front only (dog doesn’t need them in back seat)
    $250 speaker upgrade from the Tacoma World forums (Well worth the cost)
    Center console organizer
    Shift Sense Pro v.2

    Thinking about a bed rack, but I want to be able to open the tri-fold tonneau cover.
