Just picked this thing up this afternoon

new MTs always welcome, visit us in the MT threads!

 

This, the grille is more than fine, even the 16-17 was, too many wannabes sheep running around with the pro grille. Looks good, keep it as is!

 

Ditto, only took me 10+ years of throwing away money...

 

congrats!

 

Here is my upgrade from a few weeks ago, was a ford guy my whole life but I now realize what I was missing .

 

Baaaaaaaaa! Baaaaaaaaaa!

MESO mods are the exception to the rule! Must... do... MESO...

Congrats OP!

 

I will agree after years of modding and realizing its just pissing away money, most of meso's mods I feel are the opposite. Functional and some really sexy looking stuff.

I was more referring to the mall crawlers armoring up, pro grilling, badging out, I agree there is nothing better than looking at your truck in admiration at the canvas you created, but usually no one cares besides you, and come trade in time you'll realize you didnt need any of that or used it, the dealer or buyer doesnt care about any of it and wants to offer you less than stock value because of it and you probably could have paid off your truck sooner, debt, mortgage, invested, etc. dealt with less headaches, saved money on gas, etc. etc. But to each their own, just enjoy watching the peacock show.

 

I think it's better to save the 5-10 Grand and build the truck the way you want it rather than buy basically the same truck for 42k. Great looking truck, man! Congrats!

 

Welcome fellow Super White TRDOR owner.

 

MT too.... Congrats

 

You said cosmetic non functioning mods then named 3 functional mods.... Lol

 

Looking good! That’s what I call a blank canvas! Let the mods begin
Congrats!

 

Looks great!!! Welcome aboard...

 

I agree with you on the grille. I have a 16' Limited and I love the Pro grille, was gonna put one on, but everyone is getting one. Still doesn't make your truck a Pro! BTW, I like black!

 

How do you like your MT? My next Taco, probably 2020, will be a MT!

 

You definitely chose wisely on the color. Congrats. Never go wrong with white

 

That grille looks good. Is it the whole thing that's been blacked out or just the trim ring?

 

Nice just not for me I am into vintage and paid for that way I got more loot to throw around if I want on the classic I tend to keep my vehicles factory stock I have come to find they draw down bigger paydays to people looking for all original and allot of people want that my 96 is about 98 percent all stock and sweet gets a lot of looks my 99 was all stock also but your ride is cool I like the black have fun be safe and most of all enjoy

 

Stock OR grille with SR trim ring.

 

So what exactly are the functions of mods that I called non functioning? What is the function of going from a 16" to 17"or 18" wheel and tire? Lifting doesn't create any greater ground clearance although i guess it delivers a slightly better departure angle, and how does a new grill add function? And the power unlock tailgate, I didn't call that non functioning, just lazy.
