    I totaled my 2018 TRD OR a few weeks ago (first time taking it out with my CVT Mt sashta!!) and I finally got a new one today. This time I took the premium package with the tech package and in a white color. The grey showed scratches too much and I've always thought that white was pretty sharp looking.

    Luckily I was able to salvage a lot of my aftermarket equipment. So far on hand I have the following to install:
    -CBI Rock sliders (need to order new hardware)
    -LED reverse bulbs
    -Prinsu roof rack (need to order new side rails)
    -KB voodoo bed rack with tonneau brackets
    -Diamondback tonneau cover
    -CVT Tent (need to repair bent corner from roll over)
    -High lift rack and RCI mounts
    -ADS Extended coilovers
    -ADS rear shocks w/ piggyback
    -OME dakar heavy duty leaf pack
    -OME drive shaft spacer
    -Extended brakelines
    -Camburg ball joint UCAs
    -CMC
    -ECGS bushing

    I've also ordered some method MR309s with K02s 285/75r16.

    In the future I plan on adding:
    -Black out badging
    -Black out rear lights, not sure which
    -TRD Pro grill
    -Victory front bumper
    -Winch, not sure which

    Bonus pics of the one that's been totaled. I'll get to work installing some of the easier things next week and get on the lift as soon as I can afterwards, I work a ton of hours though. Really looking forward to how this turns out!!

    I edited the post to show it. I caught some ice and spun into the side of a curb, rolled down an embankment. It was a terrible day lol

    Airbags deployed, several windows shattered, branch went through rear door. The only thing that I broke was a nail and somehow i didn't even get a scratch on me.

    Thanks, me too, i've never had anything like that happen to me and it was terrifying.

    I just got my bed rack installed, took way longer than it should have. It is bent or warped somewhere and I cant figure out exactly where, so it was very difficult lining the bolts up. I got the RCI hi jack mount installed and the diamondback as well. I'll post some pics tomorrow when it's not dark out

    Sorry to hear about the accident, but at least you made the right choice with the white.

    Glad you're okay @Frawstme and congrats on the new rig. Don't let the accident deter you.

    Thanks man! Only thing deterring me right now is the insurance. Farm bureau has been insanely difficult to work with. My truck had a 39k MSRP, was 6 months old, 7k miles and they only want to give me 33k for it. Doesn't seem like a fair value. Currently sitting with two open car loans and a ton of debt because they won't come up even a dollar. I have argued but can't get anywhere..they are basing the payout off of a 2017 SR5 model with 18k miles (I did a VIN inquiry on it) and think that it's a fair comparison. I don't even know what to do because logic isn't getting anywhere with them

    Glad you're ok!

    Happy to hear you're ok! That's a nice new rig. Is that an aftermarket exhaust tip? Where did you purchase it? My naked pipe is bothering me.

    Don't settle, that's what they're hoping for. Hold your ground and find as many references as you can validating your point. The more, the better and keep working up their chain if you can.

    Did you mean you don’t think it’s a fair comparison? Your wording is a little confusing.

    And it sucks but that’s fair market value for your truck if you check KBB, but I would try to push and say that you can’t replace it for that cost. But if you only have actual value coverage and not replacement cost then you may just be spinning your wheels.

    I was trying to say that they think that it's a fair comparison (when it's not). The 33k is the value they are giving me after taxes and tags, so it's not kbb value either. I'd be happy with another 1500-2000$
