Haha well, I guess I did retain some of the mod disease, but I wouldn't say I'm going to build it. Just personalize a bit. This is what the dash looked like on day 10 of ownership. So far I have done:
Pro grille swap
275/70/17 KO2s
Tonneau cover
Over bed tent/bike rack
Bumper chrome delete
New Android 10" head unit
Window tint
Replaced some chrome dash plastics with OEM black trim
Front facing camera
On-board wifi
De-badging
Stubby antenna
It is nice to have the bed and bed rack. It seems like it's going to make road trips much easier by not having anything on the roof, or hanging off the back. I may raise the front with 5100s just to level it out a bit, but I'll see how the rear end reacts with some weight on it first.
If anyone is interested, the Android unit I got does fit in any double din opening. It doesn't have the slick integration of the cartrim one that we like to banter about, but it is 9.0 with 4G Ram/64G ROM. I was also able to connect my Toyota GPS and retain the factory USB port. Here's the link (I swear to god I am not an ambassador or in any position to profit by this in any way):

Does anyone know if you can put 40's on a 4Runner without any modifications?

congrats on the truck. They're bulletproof. My dad ran his hard on farm roads for 180k miles. got a solid 11mpg on 33's and leveling kit lol. I wish they'd update the drivetrain though. But then they wouldn't be bulletproof....

I paid $36k for my Trail in 2016. It was my first new car after 20+ used. Drove it to 28 states and 3 countries. More National Parks than I can count. For those curious about the trade-in, I gave the T4R and $9,700 for a Tundra with a $47k sticker. It had 52k miles and was certainly not a pavement princess (scratched to hell would be an overstatement, but it wasn't showroom flawless for sure).
I can't believe how unfazed I am by hacking a perfectly good vehicle to pieces now compared to when I first logged on to this site. Just a few of the folks I want to thank for the insight, guidance, and entertainment in the last 3.5 years are
@ Antman
@ 1engineer
@ Jetboy
and
@ MTN4RNR
I appreciate your contributions.
I wound up with a cement 2019 Tundra TRDOR Crewmax. In true T4R forum fashion, I had the dealer throw in the parts needed to do a Pro grille swap. Feels a bit silly to post a picture of a stock vehicle here, so I'll bow out with a picture of the T4R from our recent trip to Banff.
I hope I was able to contribute to the forum some over the last few years, and that there's not an old post from me floating around somewhere asking WILL IT RUB. BTW That leads me to one of the best pieces of advice I can give for a new member who wants to put 34s or bigger on their T4R: It doesn't matter what someone else did or saw. No two setups are exactly the same. Just be financially and psychologically prepared to do a BMC, lose your mudflaps, and dust off the BFH. Then whatever happens, it will all be cool. For God's sake don't start a new thread about it.
I'll be around for a while here and there checking in, because I spend too much time in front of too many computers. I also have some leftover parts and pieces that I'll surely be pushing in the FS thread.
Thanks again everybody (except for the redneck trolls), I'll see you out there.

well going with a 10% discount $4700 + $1000 cash for idaho + $9700 down = $15,400 off msrp = $31,600 before trade.
mostly likely and i do see this rate at time, they probably gave you close to 12% off msrp ($5640) + $1000 cash + $9700 = $16,300 = $30,660
now $30k for a trail is a tad of a stretch from my pov unless they needed the sale to meet the monthly or quarterly sales target for the oem bonus.
either way enjoy the tundy. we swapped the 2016 BBP tacoma 4x4 for a 2018 BBP platinum 4x4. we got 33k on trade and the tundy msrp at $53k but discounted down to $47,749 before trade.
the wife loves the extra room for the GSP hunting dogs (we have 2) during the winters up here as we dont put them in the bed due to the cold up in ND.

@ TexasTJ
Thanks! Banff/Jasper was stunning. Based partially on your experience, we did end up coming through Glacier on the way home. My son saw his first bears in the wild in Jasper, and in Glacier we saw plenty of bighorn and a couple of mountain goats. We really enjoyed it.
I just got back from Tahoe/Yosemite and the two things that made the biggest difference in having the Tundra as a road trip vehicle were having the RTT and bike rack over the bed, and having a 38 gallon fuel tank. It was much more comfortable driving with nothing bolted to the roof or hanging off the hitch receiver. The peace of mind that came from not having to be concerned with carrying added fuel was nice too. Those aren't digs on the 4Runner, just differences.

I forgot to share this earlier. After trading in my 4Runner, I saw the listing for it online. It was gone before the month was over. I think this list price is more than I paid new! Crazy world we live in. They did get it shined up pretty good though.
