    I’ve always been a Tundra guy until this past weekend when I bought a 2022 Tacoma Limited. I’m curious what everyone would do with this thing. For reference, I included a picture of my last tundra that I truly loved. Tundra setup for bilstein up front, rear shackles, rear diff drop and Nitto recon grapplers. Ideally, I want to stay with my stock rims and I spend most, if not all, of my time on the highway and jobsites. So comfort and aesthetics will be my main focus, but curious to hear what everyone would do here. Thanks for your help!

    Does it have leather seats? The sound system has to go. New amplifier, speakers, tweeters and SW. Those wheels need replacing. Ceramic coating. Also needs a scoop and snorkel.

    It's a limited. You don't touch it. The chrome suggestion by @vivid02 was legit though.

    If it’s already paid for, then jump right to rapture lights, grumper grill, and 37s on tons.


    the second part is a joke (the 1st is not). All joking aside, stock or nearly looks best.

    I am a Sport owner, so one to talk, but seriously leave it as is. Buy an Off Road or a Pro or what ever if you want to modify it...limited is already limited so just enjoy it.
