I give them kudos for being a dealer cool enough to install a Toytec lift with sliders!

Your Toyota dealer? I'm not far from there but more 470/Wads. I go to that high plains tap house occasionally, at chatfield/wads

Do we have a name for these fake TRD Pros that seem to be cropping up at dealers and on the forums?
I'm thinking "TRD Faux". Don't want the owners who paid the premium for the real thing getting bummed out.

I have a TRD Faux with KDSS, sunroof, [eventually] bigger lift, and better suspension. Sorry for cheapening the prestige of all the TRD Pro buyers!

It's because hipsters are lemmings. They forget that you can't drink it ironically once the price goes up.
Yuengling is the best! So happy so see it (and sweet iced tea) catching on out west. Denver is microbrew city and most of it is really not that good.

The IPA is not bad. The brewery is on the other side of the river from downtown Littleton, a friend that I mountain bike with is one of the brewers.
Thinking this is a misprint. CO dealers do sell the crap out of some 4Runners, so they don't have any incentive to discount. That being said, you can still work a deal. When the 2014's were just arriving, I managed to buy a dealer demo Limited that MSRP'd just short of 45k for 36k at that exact dealer. As I said, didn't hurt that the 2014's were coming out (mine is 2013) and it was the end of the month.

Dang! when I bought my sr5, I asked about a TRD pro and they said it would be 46k..
why not fly down to florida, drive it home. Thats well worth saving 11k. And it would be a fun road trip!

T5 we can't get it here in Louisiana. I have to drive 100 miles east to Mobile, AL to stock up...BTW, the Yuengling Light is my favorite.
Yuengling, Shiner and Rolling Rock are my preferred beers. We have another good one, Lazy Magnolia, pecan flavored and it is not bad either. From Kiln, MS, home of Brett Favre.

I am originally from PA, and is funny now that Rolling Rock and Yuengling are so darn popular all across the country! The guys who made that stuff probably had no idea it would get so popular, their highest hopes were probably to sell it to all the sports crazed fans in Pittsburgh. They say its a drinking town with a sports problem hah.

I actually test drove that truck and ended up buying TP with KDSS from that dealer instead of that one. I talked them down a HUGE amount on that one though, they just weren't quite far enough. It had a 4.75" lift plus the TRD Pro fixings. They gave me a smoking good deal almost $4k off the sticker price all said and done.
