Just get a TRD Pro or a Off road and put a 2 inch lift on it but is there really much difference off road ?
I do not want to ruin its on road performance since it will be my daily driver. FYI I live in Iowa and this will be my hunting rig with annual trips out west.
If you say Off road what lift is the best not what is the cheapest. Thanks

Most online sources say the TRD OR is the best deal for what you get, and I agree. The KDSS was the deciding factor for me (also the sunroof. When I got mine, I couldn't find a Pro anywhere in the US that had a sunroof and wasn't going to wait months to custom order one, especially for the money). It just drives so much better on road and off compared to one that doesn't have it. I do wish I had one of the Pro colors like the green, grey, or one of the blues, but it wasn't worth $10k extra for it and losing KDSS to get it. Besides, Toyota paint is garbage and I'll probably end up painting it anyway, since mine has 15k on it and is pinstriped to hell already.
it really comes down to a couple factors.
- do you want KDSS?
- do you want the Pro color? is it worth an extra $10k or so to get it?
- do you need the fancy stuff like dual climate control?
If you don't really need the color and extra fancy stuff, or do really want the KDSS, then it's a better deal to get the OR and upgrade the suspension yourself, plus you can get a lot better suspension for the money. Seems a lot of guys that get the Pro upgrade the suspension anyway.
