    Thank you! Yours looks great too. (I wish I could have found one in Black Sand Pearl.) I got very lucky in finding my truck, even if not my first color choice. I bought it in 2008, from a Toyota mechanic who had installed the TRD supercharger, with only 40K miles on the truck and barely 5K on the supercharger. The first photo was the day my suspension upgrades were installed. The second is later, after the suspension had settled and I'd located a set of 4Runner wheels.

    Geez, you sure had a case of bad luck. Sorry to go off track but in the pic of your truck (the stolen one) what is/was that platform on top of your camper shell? It looks really cool and stealthy! :D
