Hi T4R
Been lurking around here for all the info, and gotta say this is a great forum. I've been on many car forums (bmw, audi, GM) over the years, and this seems to be a good community. Thankful for all your knowledge.
So my wife and I traded in our 2011 Sienna SE minvan for a 2015 SR5 4x4 3rd row option, 2 weeks ago. Getting used to not having the convenience and space of a minvan, but loving the new truck and looking forward to getting it out in nature with our pop up camper and kids.
Never one to be able to let things be, I've already ordered the Icon Stg 4 suspension setup, and some wheels/tires. Planning to run the 275/70/17 setup as I really dont want to deal with to much trimming, etc to make my tires work. Plus this is my wifes daily driver and she is shuttling around 3 kids all day, so not planning to lift it more than 2"-2.5". They already have trouble getting in, so hoping some sliders will also help that out.
So far I plasti dipped the emblems and ordered weather tech digital fits. Other plans are some sort of baja style rack up top, sliders, tint, and then probably call it a day. i think that will be a nice setup for our family needs.
Figure I'll use this thread to show the build which should all (at least suspension and shoes) be done by next month. Not really wasting much time with this build. I kind of did the same with my daily driver which is a Icon equipped 2012 Silverado.
thanks for looking and looking forward to learning and contributing to the forum. We're in Encinitas, so looking for any group runs in the area once we're set up.

and here is a pick of my icon equipped truck with 35's and our pop up which is a baja style pop up. Has 15" mud terrains and 19" of clearance.
