Good News!
I was able to "negotiate" with the insurance company to get a decent deal on my totaled T4R. It took a little bit of assertive data informing them how meticulously my vehicle was maintained since taking ownership, IMHO, to get them to that point......without getting an attorney involved.
So, I signed papers on one this afternoon, now waiting on the insurance company to drop the settlement into my account!

Sounds good. TRD ORP or TRD Pro?

Waiting on feedback from insurance company!

Keith,
I'm so sorry to hear about this...I haven't been on in a while. I'm glad you are ok and it sounds like the insurance will hopefully make you "somewhat whole". Can't wait to see the new T4R and any awesome mods/plans you come up with for it.
Take Care!

Hey Chris,
Thanks!
Well a new one is on the horizon.
Being prepped now as we speak.
My wife said I need to retire the name "Midnight"!
So I may take considerations for a new name!
I am already buying parts to upgrade / Mod the new one.

Nice! Congrats. The black Pro wheels look better than the grey Pro wheels that come on the Venture. Did you ask for a swap? Also, I see it has KO2’s? Did you swap the Nittos?

@ TRD PANTHER
Thx!
The Black TRD Pro wheels are not an option on the 21 TRD Off Road. They come with their own version of off-road wheels with M&S Tires (no Nitto's).
They make a new version of TRD Pro wheels , but am not a fan.
So I bought these just like I had on my other T4R.
They would not do a swap in any form or fashion!

My mistake. I thought it might be the Venture model with the basket removed and because it has the chrome bars in the upper grille. I agree with you on the new Pro wheels, I am not sold on them either. Glad everything worked out for you with your insurance and your personal self. Let the mods begin.
