Here is my vintage 2015 TRDP to help move on

Yes and to an true enthusiast a rarer color would make a difference, but I'm talking the real world and what the market says. The market says silver and white are the most popular colors and to the general public are more sought after. No one is knocking any other color, just answering a question and stating facts as per Kelly's blue book.

Silver + White + a dab of Black = CEMEMT!!!! hahaha


Anyway, it would still be interesting to see what the actual delivery numbers were/are for 2017. I understand the last few years only 1500 or so TRD Pro trim packages were delivered. Around this forum they seem to be everywhere but on the street, 1500 of over 100,000 T4R's is a tiny number. And given out of close(ish) to a million 5th gens sent to USA how many are getting the attention and BRO modifications / builds, it really is no wonder that "on the street" the Pro's are holding their value.

Pure conjecture to follow... I wonder what it would cost to take an SR5 and after market it up to Limited specs. I would bet a dollar bill one could add luxury to that level for less than what Toyota charges...then the day you want to sell it you have to convince your buyer it is not "just an SR5, it's a limited, but not technically, only better because it cost you less to do it, and now I am trying to sell it as a limited to you, because that is what the bank sees on their display when they select 4Runner, SR5, with modifications, just like a..." nope, I don't think the bank will care in the resale market... my two cents on a Monday morning

Curious... what are you trying to elude to in your second statement?
Must be Monday morning as I'm a bit baffled LOL.

I do agree that a bank will see an SR5 as just an SR5 with modifications.
A private buyer may or may not value it any higher. Dealerships (and banks) typically consider any aftermarket as a ding to the car's overall value.

Don't know if it's the angle, but I'd be afraid to take that thing into a parking garage.

My 2017 TRD Pro - Cement



Timeline:

Ordered Sept, 2016

Delivered March, 2017

Why would it take 6 months to get it when you ordered so early??

Originally ordered a 2016 TRD Pro in Metallic Grey. Was told that production shifted to 2017 after i placed order. The explanation that I was given anyway. Happy with the Cement. Worth the wait IMO.

Honestly somewhat of an impulse buy. Had a small crossover that wasn't big enough for my dogs nor snow capable for our new place in Tahoe. Super White TRD Pro showed up just as I was about to purchase something else...took what they had. Nice SUV that I'm looking forward to modifying.

Did you purchase the used TRD PRO that dolan Toyota was selling?

 

[K9 HAULR]

No - I grabbed the new white one Lithia in Redding got in. Was shopping in Reno too, since we have a place in Incline.

 

[Cement2017]

Pretty intense people in Ohio... so who else has some sweet TRD Pros to show off?

Wow! The butt hurt is strong up there!

 

[Cement2017]

Don't have to take my word for it, go see for yourself on Kelly's blue book. Indemnity crisis? I ordered a 2017 super white cuz that's the color I wanted. I didn't stumble across it on the lot, I ORDERED it. Could of ordered a cement, but I like super white. Sounds to me like someone a little over sensitive on your end.

Its the angle. The lot at work has a good foot of clearance.

need help with HId kits and led fog lights

Hi guys i was wondering what you guys can recommend for a hid kit for a 2017 4runner trd pro? i am also looking for leds for the fog lights. I would like for the them to match in color. Any recommendations?

Check out xenondepot.com. They seem to be the preferred brand here. For HID low beams they have a generic 6000k kit or philips rebased 4300k kit. For LED fogs, they have philips. If you match the color temp for HIDs and LEDs, they should be pretty close. I generally like philips as the are OEM quality.

I have the Xenon Depot Kit with the Phillips 4300 bulbs and I am selling it if you are interested?

I used it for about 2.5 total hours and just decided to go back to stock for now. There's absolutely nothing wrong with the kit, its just too bright for anything I need.

If you are interested, let me know. Like I said, its pretty much new, I just don't have the original box.

IMO do a complete projector retrofit as the stock halogen projectors are horrible even with HID bulbs installed.
