New 2020 TRD OFFROAD 4x4 - Build Suggestions?

Hey everyone,
I'm new to the forums and new to Tacos! Yesterday I picked up a 2020 TRD Offroad and plan to use it primarily for overlanding and cross country road trips. Not looking for any "head-turning" mods... just something that will get the job done if the trail calls for it (functionality, mobility, and weight).

I'm new to these sorts of builds, but I'd like to turn this into a hobby. Any tips or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

... taking her out to the Smokies this weekend. I'll post more pics soon.

 

No LEDs for head lights?

 

its a separate option

 

Oh I see. I thought it was standard for OR and PRO trims. Good to know

 

nope, ya Toyota is getting greedy with theses trucks now

 

Tell me about it. Toyota knows people will buy whatever is thrown at them. They're still gonna sell like hot cakes.

 

don’t want to hijack OPs thread but ya $45k for a loaded off-road is ridiculous.

 

Didn’t get the new headlights???

 

Thats what I said lol I would have shed the extra bucks for those purrttyy new lights

 

The new headlights look like ass. Congrats OP on passing those up for some better mods.

 

It is a $485 option.... it’s about $1,200 after the fact. Oh well

 

you think so?

You are the first I have heard say that.

not gonna say they are the best looking lights ever, but far superior to our halogen lights in ALL aspects.

 

If you like your truck to look like a squinty-eyed mofo, go for it. I’ll pass, but I’m always about looks over function anyways.

I am not alone in my opinion.

 

i can see the reasoning for making it optional is that in regions where it snows, you need halogens to clear off your lens with the heat. if they made LED headlights standard in those areas with blizzards they'd be fucking over their customers.

 

I’m about function AND looks. I think the new lights are much better looking AND the functionality / lighting is FAR superior. It’s a win win.





Better squinty than bug eyed???

 

I would not be caught dead in that truck. I’d be trading on a Ridgeline.

 

Back to the OP's original question, I would recommend only essential mods. I would focus on paying off the truck first and foremost.

Things I would only buy would be :
- Softopper or Camper Shell
- Sliders
- Bed mat

 

Damn. Now I know you have too be joking lol There's no way I'd choose a ridgeline just because of some head lights.

 

dang... lol

normally you are pretty level headed, now you are just being facetious

I am not biased, I have a ‘17 with the halogen headlights

 

I know.......and I apologize......however this is what I see when I look at the 2020s “face”.
