The TRD Off-Road "Extra Value Package" is what I got. I also got the OEM Bluetooth, roof rack and towing package - the truck was decked out. The truck looked great and performed great right out of the box. The HAC, DAC, rear diff lock, deck powerpoint and every other factory installed option have performed flawlessly. I have put the 4WD system through it's paces in mud, water, rocks & snow and could not have asked for a better combination of off road agility and on-road ride comfort and reasonable gas mileage in a factory stock truck. The only reason I am upgrading to a lift kit now is just to change things up a little.

A couple things I would recommend you dont get is the "Toyo Guard" protection. This is an overpriced "appearance protection" insurance plan that is worthless IMHO. Also, the roof rack - while it looks nice and is somewhat functional, is also overpriced and not nearly as versatile as aftermarket rack systems, by Thule, Yakima and others.

Overall, this is a great truck and as you can see here has a very loyal following. I couldn't be happier with mine - unless they eventually come out with a turbodiesel version!

I wouldnt go back to that rank for all the money in the world. you might be taken more seriously bc you are prior service.

na, its a great move. its a better career move in the long run. You can retire as an officer and get a far better pension. good luck and if i can do anything for you, let me know. I pin Captain when we redeploy, soon thereafter.
