    I have 5.29s and 33s (285/70/17s) and dont mind the high RPMs, but I definitely expected mileage to be better than what it is now, it decreased from stock gearing once I got the 5.29s. I know there are an infinite amount of variables into that, and it's not prius, but thought the constant shifting would up the MPGs a bit. Might go with the 34"x10.5x17s as my next tire to see how it works out.

    Kenda Klever 35x10.5R17's are what I think I'm going to try stepping up too. I also plan to see if a speedo calibration for the 33's might help on the psychological side if things, since I know logically that it's off 8.25% but it still effects my perception of speed vs RPM's.

    Less mods, there are so many I thought would be awesome. That... I really don't care about anymore.
    Maybe like 1% maybe... Not buy a TRD OR 4x4. I think a base model access would have made me pretty dang happy.

    Good choice if I might say so myself :cheers:

    I would've bought silver in the same set up, TRD off road access cab. Might've considered buying 17" steel wheels to access a better selection of 255 tires but that can always be changed down the road. Who knows, if I ever end up buying that silver access cab I could always BedLiner or something similar my canopy.

    I didn't know the speedo would be off with the regear, where did you get the 8.25% from?

    It's off from the 33s, not the regear. is where I got the 8.25% difference from

    TSS, its worthless and a pain in the ass as soon as you lift it, and/or want to replace the bumper.

    I agree, I’m hesitant to change my grill to the pro because I don’t want to unplug the front sensor.

    Ah ok. I know there is a way to reprogram for tire size through the infotainment system, don't know if that works though. Going to look into it.

    That is apparently only for the navigation system, and not the speedometer. For the speedometer you need a separate device that runs about $200

    nothing for me in terms of builds, but I would probably have gotten the premium package, and maybe the truck in calvary blue

    Bought an SR, MAYBE an SR5. The only "uptrim" thing I use on the TRD is the push button start. Sliding back window, I guess.

    OH - I lied. Fun color. VooDoo blue would have been bitchin'. Don't like the army green though.
