Finally Able to Join the Family!!
After about 7 months of diligently searching for my very own 4th Gen, I finally found me one! I couldn't be happier. I absolutely love my new (to me) vehicle.
It is a 2008 Titanium Metallic SR5 4WD. She had 103,xxx when I picked her up. I am just very excited about my new truck and I wanted to share it with you guys! I purchased her from a dealership and while I do not think that I got the deal of the century or anything, I was tired of waiting and this had all of the things that I wanted!
She currently has Dynapro 265/60r17 tires. I like the tires decently enough and they are in pretty good shape, but I just wish they were quite a bit bigger. In the future, I plan to lift her up and add some larger tires. Right now I am thinking about going for 285/75r17s, but from what I have read, it seems that I will have to do quite a bit of trimming and I am not sure if I want to do that or not.
Here is a picture before I even signed the dotted line. I originally wanted a white T4R and they I shifted more towards Galactic Gray. I have to say though that I actually love the silver and it doesn't seem to show much dirt, which is always a plus.
So what do you guys think? How did I do? Do you guys love her as much as I do??

Congrats and welcome!
My 'Runner is nearly identical ('07 Titanium Metallic Sport 4x4), right down to the driver and passenger windows being tinted (which is a big plus btw). Took a year to find the right one so I salute your patience.
If you're comfortable sharing, what did pay for it?
