TexasTJ's 2017 T4R TRD Pro - Cement "Zoe"
 
Hey guys:hello: Let me start by saying that this won't be a build thread per say, more of just a thread for me to document things for myself. This will be our road trip/camping vehicle, nothing too crazy.

My fiancee and I had talked about buying a TEP (or now TRD OR-P) in Super White for quite a while. On 03/25/17 we decided to stop by Atkinson Toyota in Bryan, Texas to kill time before dinner with friends while I was in town visiting, and just see what colors she liked. We saw the Cement TRD Pro on the lot and fell in love. We weren't looking to buy yet, so we went home. About 20 minutes passed by and we just gave each other "that" look and we decided to go look at it one more time. Well, next thing I know, I'm working on a deal for this 4R. I traded in my 2012 Honda Civic EX-L and got it for ~$1k below invoice. She was sitting on the lot for about a day and a half before we came along. I test drove it with 18mi, and took delivery at 25mi. Only add on was the sliding cargo deck.


My fiancee named her Zoe.

Added OE running boards, thanks to @r1verf3nix
Install was done by myself in about 10mins per side. Makes it a little easier for my short fiancee to get in. :laugh:

those boards are real nice. Glad they went to another Pro in Cement. I am going to have to setup a build thread for all that I have done already. Yours is looking real nice!

@TexasTJ

So debating something here, either to blackout the rear emblems or go with the plasticdip match of the front grey 'TOYOTA' emblem.

What you think?

I'd personally like to see something other than black, so I vote grey. However, the black would match nicely with the TRD logo.

I've seen a few cement TRD Pros around Dallas, so it's possible I've seen one of guys around:
