    I am still rolling "stock" as well but I look good parked next to a corolla at the grocery store! Kidding...but I must say....while your ride is "stock" I doubt she is "sad". Look at where those pics were taken! Beauty!

    Your truck looks great...

    To give it an 'off road look', add some big off road lights, remove the mud flaps (as everyone here knows when you really do some off roading, they will break off), and replace the tires with slightly taller (265/75-16) off road tires... If you do a lift, then an even taller tire could go in.

    I have yet to change the BFG Rugged Trails to a better tire on the '10...

    On my '05, I first went to Cooper Discoverer STTs... If you don't do a lot of highway driving... they may fit the bill? (They are very loud on the highway):

    In the end, you only need to impress yourself!

    to get aggressive, you might have to buy a different truck. These don't. I think the sport hood kind of helps. But its also driving behind a big lie!

    Lose the bug shield, get a color matched grill, and more aggressive looking tires and wheels.

    keep it cheap at first and see how you like it.

    Grillcraft or satoshi style grill with TOYOTA emblem and some BHLM will do wonders.

    Paint the grill black and do the black headlight mod (BHLM) and it'll look much tougher for a day's effort and less than $20.

    Bug shield is gone...mud flaps are gone. As for the BLHM, its the only ride that I have and its starting the rainy season here on the island...not to mention it gets dark at 430 pm now...so if I f-up on the mod I'm hozed. I've been looking into the already blackened Anzo lights. They look good and I can keep the stock ones for blacking out and perhaps doing the projector mod. Its either that or buying blackened Anzo projectors pre-made.

    Heavy stuff big tires drives like hell
    Just take it somewhere cool... you will forget about the looks, and fall in love with the performance... But a lift and large tires wouldn't hurt (although it will hurt your wallet and your gas mileage...)

    This sounds like a really good start. You can look at my 275s in my gallery with the billies at 1.75. Im gunna move up to 2.5 pretty soon. As for Front Bumpers id look at Relentless Fab or CBI or some of the other vendors on here
