    Hello all, I'm new to the group as well having just purchased a 2016 TRD 4X4 Off Road. The truck has plenty of mods already like 1" lift block and a 2" add-a-leaf in addition to Bilstein 5100's all around and 295/75/16 BFG KO2's on stock rims and a Softopper. I'm looking forward to learning more about this vehicle and possible mods. I'm also going to give it a run at off road camping. Any recommendations/advice are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
