    All weather mats and bed mat...the OEM bed mat is excellent in my opinion, fits perfect and no cutting required. The bed is very hard on the knees and super slick without the mat. Nothing moves in the bed with the mat down.

    Yup...believe me, I use the sunglasses cubby daily. If I had crawl control, can't imagine using it more than once a year.

    I agree with the bed mat and all weather floor mats. Mine came with both which were OEM Toyota. They were as good as any aftermarket mats I ever bought and I like the floor mats better than the Weather Tech brand. After that, new radio knobs from Hondo Garage. If you really plan on going off road then you will want to start looking into skid plates. That cheap thing that comes on the truck that is under the engine is real thin and is really a shield to keep pebbles from bouncing up into the engine area. The gas tank has a plastic cover that is certainly no protection. And I bought the locking covers for the two cubbies in the bed from Mobtown Offroad. Keep up with the deals and coupons tab and order them when they go on sale.

    My first was a hard tri-fold cover that locks for my band equipment. Then the OEM bed mat, which helped reduce rear tire noise. Then the TRD-PRO grill. I think I'm done wasting money.

    Is this even a real question?

    The 1st thing I bought for my truck was a hitch ball with a 2" drop because I NEEDED it. What do you need?

    It's not person. It doesn't like you more if you get it gifts :rofl:

    Hey and welcome to TW, it depends what you plan on using your truck for. I planned on off roading with it, going camping etc. so my first purchase was a set of SOS Concepts rock sliders to protect the doors and rocker panels. They have certainly come in handy and have well paid for themselves by preventing body damage from rocks and trees.

    Thats it, I am returning everything I have bought for my truck, and here I though it was just being moody.

    I still haven't shelled out the money for that. Yet, I always have stuff sliding around in the back and it kills me. Just not enough to spend the 120 yet...

    I have spent time in Florida... in a non tinted rental car. No bueno.

    But mod list is the exact same for me. NorCal here.

    1. Window Tint. Legal window tint in California is 70% UV barrier on the front. Enough about that.
    2. Debadge/Desticker. I know it's a Tacoma, I know what trim I bought. I don't really care who else does, plus it's easier to wash.
    3. 4 Runner TRD Sema's/K02's?. Mine are going on tomorrow. But I snagged some other goodies that I couldn't pass up so those were prior to this. But this should be number three.
