    I went all out. 2021 TRD Offroad DCSB, 4wd, manual transmission.

    White wasn't the color I wanted but it still looks great with all the black trim. I love everything about this truck.

    I've already started using it to teach my wife how to drive a manual. She was fairly eager to learn honestly! Took her on a gravel back road today and she didn't stall it! The baby was napping in the backseat and she didn't even wake up! I take that to mean I'm a good teacher haha. Honestly hope I get to teach that same baby how to drive manual in the same truck.

    I went "unoriginal" and added TRD wheels, factory lift kit, and blackout package. Don't really care if that's unoriginal though because I love the truck and love that we're already making memories in it.

    Incase anybody is curious, I also added the MX4 bakflip tonneau cover, factory bedmat, and 275/70r17 Falken Wildpeaks. They fit perfectly with the factory lift kit, no rubbing, no issues at all. I thought I wanted a bigger tire but was surprised how much I like the size and stance of them.

    I saved up a lot and for a long time just for the downpayment for this rig, so I'll probably not be adding/modding anything for awhile. Although we did discuss today how cool it would be to add a RTT. So if anybody knows of one that can fit 2 smaller adults and up to 2 small babies/kids, let me know! (Perks of a family that's shorter/skinnier... Legroom isn't an issue. Ha!)

    Photos were taken the night I picked it up at the dealership last week. They had it waiting for me outside the front door when I showed up.

    Edit: Photo from our first family adventure today. Drove around a couple of nearby craters. Tested 4hi, 4lo, and the rear locker on the more difficult sections. Everything worked smoothly!

    Very beautiful truck! You're talking some great add-ons for future endeavors...RTT.

    You've got a young family so second row seating isn't an issue at the moment.

    I've thought about the tonneau cover but not doing it yet.

    Enjoy your new stick-shift truck! I had an Isuzu Rodeo 5-speed in the mid 90s but couldn't teach my wife to drive it. lol

    Congratulations op, the truck is a beauty. IDK what was the color you wanted, but you may get to appreciate the white color for its low maintenance.
    Also, I see you also got the Pro-grill, nice touch, it should add another 50hp to the joy!

    Cheers!
