I got to visit/tour the Indiana plant back in 2007 when they were releasing the then new full size Tundra. It was absolutely amazing.

Stopped in the local Toyota today, just wanted to see how their inventory was, and see if they are still marking them up over MSRP. The had about 20 new cars on the lot, which is more than they've had in the past few years. And yes, they are still charging $1K over MSRP. Saw a TRD ORP in a...

A buddy of mine uses one of these to load his Lab in/out of his F150. Works pretty good from what I've seen. Amazon.com

I buy Mobil 1 0W20 from Walmart, about $28 for a 5 qt jug and take my own oil to the dealer, or independent shop that I also use. I also use Toyota OEM filters and a crush washer. FWIW, my closest Toyota dealer won't use customer supplied oil. They are a bunch of money grubbing d-bags...

Bilstein 5100 1.75" front, 1 inch Cornfed spacer with 5100 in the rear. I wish I'd have gone to the 2.25 in the front.

I'd say if you're driving a $50k truck, yeah, $949 is affordable.

Looks awesome!

I did the 1.75 in the front and added the 1" Cornfed spacers in the rear. Still has a bit of rake to it. I wished I'd have gone with the highest setting in the front, and may still end up doing it at some point.

My 2021 Trail came with these wheels. Same thing happened. I replaced them with some KMC wheels, and sold them, or I would post a pic.

According to my local dealer, where I used to work, the next 4Runner will be a 4 cylinder turbo, beyond that nothing to report.

A set of aftermarket wiper blades is about $25. I change them every spring and fall whether they need it or not......

Since there's no real off roading in Delaware, I didn't see the need for a more aggressive tire, although I do like the look better. These tires are quiet and were rated fairly high in snow and rain. I will get to test them on the beach surf fishing next year, and since I train retrievers I...

I installed Bilstein 5100's set at 1.75 in the front and a 1" Cornfed spacer in the rear.

I put new wheels and tires on my 2021 Trail today. Went with KMC722 in bronze, 17x8.5 with 0 offset. Tires are Goodyear Wrangler Adventure size 285/70R17. I think it turned out well, the bronze wheels look good with the grey. Just a very slight rub when backing up at full lock. It's...

Good old Gulf States Toyota. They're famous for this kind of crap.
