Not sure if anything has been mentioned about the clearance gains and ride quality of mods over long term. I wheeled in a pro and then bought and built the trd off road premium with 3 inch fox factory race series reservoirs. The ride quality is markedly better with the trd off road I modded. it’s not even about the chunky stuff off road it’s the washboards, little ledges and stuff most people see 95 percent of the time on trail. Also , as an enthusiast we’re naturally in awe of a beautiful truck and love the mods and tinkering. Can you comfortably drive past a sexy beast 4 runner modded well with the pro and not want to mod it. The desire to lift it will be pretty strong.

Personally part of me kind of wonders why pay 8 grand for badges and pretty standard fair fox shocks. The pro doesn’t have fox top tier equipment.

I literally bought my 2019 off lot, saved 8 grand then drove it 5 miles and spent that 8 grand building the truck I want with far better quality.
