4runner TRD Pro

Toy4run...I paid A grand above sticker...and that was massive haggling. I had a customer within ear shot of my negotiations and he was salivating at the chance that I might not get the truck. Smh

Oh wow, savages!!! Well congrats on your purchase, take pics when you can. There are 5 cements, yours and mine included,that I know of on this board in the ny/nj area so far.
 
I am picking up my cement TRDPro on the 18th.

I am fairly certain I will trade tires at the dealer and have some KO2's. Am trying to decide if I want to go 265, or 275 size, which I understand will fit on stock truck with no rubbing. To go 275 size would result in E rating tires whereas I can get C rated 265's, which are about 10 lbs lighter. Normally I would go for the E rating but am thinking the C will result in better fuel mileage and a softer ride. Any thoughts on this? I will not be lifting the truck.
 
Cement just hit the dealer this morning, so I need to make up my mind ....I was going to get the f(x) Pro wheel and was pretty much decided on the black but now was maybe going to the gunmetal. Matte Black is a no brainer (i know it looks good), the gunmetal on the other hand will be different but not sure how it's going to look with the Cement color and all the other black accents on the truck already....thoughts? ...yes, I know it's all subjective but someone may say something that I haven't thought of...one positive to the gunmetal is they should be easier to clean because of the finish vs the matte black.

First pic shows the black then gunmetal and then the silver ..then just the gunmetal and matte black

BLACK for sure. Non black will clash with cement color unless you find a good contrasting color. Anything too similar will look matchy matchy!!
 
ive never been more aggravated trying to get a vehicle in my entire life.
ive ordered cars many times from other manufactures with no problems and even the way i wanted with options, but toyota has to be stupid about it and not allow that, ive never heard of anything so stupid

sorry just venting, lol

I couldn't agree more. One dealer wants 20% down another 10 another 500. I have another dealers that has one coming in and can't even describe how I get it! Geez!
 
Is anybody purchasing the teflon coating from the dealers? What is a good solution to protect the paint for the TRD Pro and other off-roading vehicles?

I have the factory front paint protection coming on mine - but it is not something I wanted, it just was on this particular vehicle and I couldn't find another.
 
Picked up my TRD pro today and it came with steps so 1st mod was to take them off! Can someone that didn't have steps look under and see if the threaded holes are open on there's or if they are plugged? Attached picture to show what mine looks like.

I had it on one of my vehicles and while it did it's job I have a hard time justifying the expense. The borders aren't invisible, most dings leave a small tear in the film and you have to hope the edges don't begin to peel after a few yrs. You might rationalize the 'noticeable' tear from a rock chip isn't as bad as a ding that could lead to rust. But this isn't a '57 Chevy and today's Toyotas will likely last most ownerships before any rust issues, if any, arise. If you lose sleep over rock chips then maybe it'll help you sleep better. Otherwise, I don't think you'll see a return in the investment. If it's done on the hood, I think it's best to cover entire hood so that if you do keep the vehicle for an eternity the weather-wear will be uniform across that entire body part; plus any visible edges are a non-issue.

Which steps are you uninstalling? Have pics? I know Toyota offers two different step options (in general) so wonder which one comes with yours.
