    I just want to say thank you to all the guys and gals with so much knowledge on this forum, you are a great asset to newbs like me. I recently purchased my dream truck, a 2014 off road DC 4X4 that I just love. I have been spending a silly amount of time of some Toyota forums learning all that I can from you all. I almost purchased this truck a couple of years ago, but I got cheap and conservative and purchased a nice Camry instead. I was not what I truly wanted but I felt guilty spending so much on myself with a wife and 3 kids to raise.

    The past few months I have been looking for a nice little 2 door 4X4 to go out and have some fun in. My wife with all her knowledge basically told me to get what I really wanted, and something that can fit the whole family. So now it is here, and I am super happy with my purchase. I look forward to learning so much more from everyone who contributes on this forum, thanks.

    I have done a couple of little mods that I have learned here.

    Cut front mud flaps down aprox 4 1/2"

    Took about 1" off the rear.

    20% tint all around, which equals limo in the back 3 with Toyota's tinted glass.

    Had to do the tail gate lock.

    And of course, a complete debadge to keep her clean and easier to wash and wax.


    Well, here she is sitting at the dealer just before I drove her home.

    Your truck hasn't experienced any mod until you do the heated mirror mod...... even though you live in Arizona. j/k :D

    Nice truck and welcome to our world! :)
