"Sandy" is all done. 2016 Quicksand TRD OffRoad...

Looks terrible, you should just give it to me....

 

I think I saw your truck at home depot on Portage a while ago. Looks good! I ordered a 2017 DCSB OR in inferno, Toyota has accepted the order, just waiting for build date. I already have my rims, tires, and running boards to put on. Did you sell your tires/rims local?

 

Yeah that was probably me. Lol That Inferno is a sharp color, too...yes I sold the factory wheels on Craigslist locally. Didn't have any problem selling them. Can't wait to see your new one!!

 

Here's a pic with the OEM steps on....finished product

 

Good to know the tires/rims sold easy around here. I don't want to have to mess with shipping anything. I will likely be putting in a small lift too (1.5-2") and selling the shocks so I hope those sell well also. My build date is 10/9/16 so you may spot me driving around in November!

 

You may have it before then. When they gave me a build date, that was the day it was completed and en route to the dealership! I'll look for ya!!

 

Outstanding truck. Only suggestion I can add is de-badge/sticker including the vinyl on the windows it for a truly clean look.

 

Awesome truck, bud! Love that color. Only thing I'd opt for is the trd pro grill. But regardless, that's a beautiful truck. Good job!

 

Great looking truck! I'm kind of regretting not getting the Quicksand color. It was a toss up between Quicksand and Super White for me.

 

Yeah, white is nice, but I was lookin' for something that makes it a little different. I've had white Tacos in the past. Lots of them out there...

 

Famous last words on this site...

Do you have any off road pictures?

 

Have you noticed a significant impact on mpg going up to 265/70/17? Looking to get new tires in the near future and this is the exact size tire I want to get (not planning on lifting my truck at all).

 

all i have to say is when i was at the dealership deciding on my truck they had 2 identical in every way trd or tacomas except 1 was mgm and the other was quicksand.

literally no other difference.

i REALLY wish i had gotten the quicksand over the mgm i now own.

i am seriously going to have my truck vinyl wrapped in FDE or some color form of dessert tan/sand color.

 

You can always wait until it's time to trade up to a newer model. The MGM is a sharp color, too. I have to say, though...I get lotsa compliments on Sandy. Lol...

 

Hope you don't mind me asking, how much were you asking/listing the wheels? Did you sell them together, tires and wheels? With/without TPMS?

Reason I'm asking is I'll be swapping out my tires & wheels as soon as my truck comes in. But I'm having them take the OEM TPMS and installing in new TRD Pro wheels. So my stock wheels will be sold tires and wheels w/o TPMSs.

Just want to have an idea how much list them at.

Thanks
Norma

 

Norma, if I recall I got $400 out of the tires and $500 out of the rims...

 

And that was with me keeping my TPS sensors...

 

Ok, thanks. So you sold the tires $100 each and the rims sold for $125

I priced the tires from a couple places and new they go anywhere from $210-$250 each

I told the guy I'll list on Craigslist for $100 each and he said they sell plenty of them, and I should list the, at $150 each. So I'll probably try that and say or all 4 of them for $500

The wheels on the other hand, well I was Shocked at the price. I had the parts kid look'm up for me and they topped out at close to $500 each. Just the plastic center cap was almost $50. CRAZY EXPENSIVE

I paid like $181.25 for my matte black TRD Pro wheels. So I'm not sure what to price the stock ones for, but at $125 ea that was a very good deal for somebody!

 

Very nice!
