    Hey Yall, I've been on here for a few months and figured I'd introduce myself. I'm located in NorCal.

    I purchased a MGM 2023 TRD Offroad DCSB back in August after waiting 5-6mths.

    My first mods to it are the AVS in-channel wind deflectors and the TRD Pro Grille swap.

    My next plans are to lift it and put on new wheels/tires.

    I'm happy to be a part of the TW community and look forward to learning from you all.

    Exactly...that's why I bought mine. I got it from Roseville Toyota. It was tough finding one that wasn't already reserved, especially the 6MT one, but I'm glad I found mine.

    Sheeshhh, I bet it was worth it though

    No time was wasted on this build! I love how much you've built her up in such a little time! Anything else planned for her?

    Thank you! My next plan is to put on a camper shell along with racks on top. Hopefully, it's soon, but I have to start saving again.

    Finally got around to swapping out the chrome vent rings for the black AJT Designs ones.

    Also put on the black logo cover on the steering wheel as well.
