    Prerunners are alot cheaper up here due to the 2WD. 2WD is pretty useless in this corner of the world.

    I will. I'm leaning towards making a "sleeper" truck. Keep it looking as stock as possible but with internal/engine mods to make it more capable.

    Thanks!

    It's funny...my wife and friends loved the black rims and I was "meh". They looked alright but I liked the polished aluminium rims better. Now they've grow on me and I love 'em.

    I would just stick with 0w20 but I'm sure others will chime in soon.

    Thought I had posted mine but couldn't find it. 2014 base 4x4 5spd. Love it so far. Actually was going for a regular cab but glad I stepped up to the extra room.

    I wanted some of the stuff that comes on the SR (i like those rims almost as much as I like the graphite TRDs) but...eh...maybe in time. There was no SR option in my state when I bought. Something about the web site only showing build configurations that are popular in your area.

    Yeah, my dog likes to photobomb.

    Hey, and I have a question...I want to get some TRD rims. I read up on that I need to do some fooling around with the TPMS to make it work but I need to tell the tire shop exactly what to do.
    1) will the TRD rims fit with the stock Dunlops?
    2) what exactly are the TPMS instructions? If I say "you need to rotate the sensor 180 degrees or use a strap kit" are they going to know what I'm talking about?

    I have a line on some, thanks :) you could PM me with what you're asking for them, though...

    Yeah, I know I don't need TPMS but since the truck only has 800 miles on it I'd like to have at least some driving fun with all the warning lights off. So if there's a way to make it work then I am all for it LOL

    I haven't had any issues with the access cab off road, but I haven't done any really serious crawling. Just a lot if mud and trails. Having a secure space behind the seats for stuff that I don't want to put in the bed, and the occasional 3rd person in the back seat for short trips makes it much more liveable though.

    I have done a lot of serious offroading and this thing is a beast. A longer wheel base helps with vehicle stability off-road as well. This is one of the reason jeeps tend to roll over so often.
