Is that a 12v DC plug cover above the drivers side fog light?
Factory engine block heater?
Given he's in Canada and it's in the pics when he took delivery, that would be my guess as well.

With proper tires most vehicles are sufficient for winter driving. Most times the issue isn't the vehicle's capability but the driver's judgement. To answer your question, either vehicle will do just fine for winter driving.

oh yes [MENTION=115403]Bilu[/MENTION] more than enough, it depends on what you want to do with it, I had a Hyundai Tiburon for 4 years and it was my winter car as well, used it in snow stomrs with michelins xice2 and never got stuck anywhere. Now with this on I get to play in the snow, I drove it in my buddy's backyard he lives outside of Edmonton near the Northern Bear Golf Club, there was close to 1 meter of snow in the ground and we pushed through it for a while until he forgot to tell me he dug up a trench in the summer and we got it stuck and had to pull it out with he's truck. But really we were just being stupid, drinking and having fun. if you are going to do on-road driving the limited will work for you no problem. If you want to do off-roading I will say SR5 or Trail so you can put it in 4x4. I believe the limited is only AWD.

Thanks [MENTION=91332]Vegas Island[/MENTION] nice to get compliments from you guys once in a while. I'm planning a few more mods but I just moved to a new place and all of my money has been going to the new house. I'm hoping that by the end of November I can buy the parts to get a bumper, LED BAR and Winch.

Trail Lockers
I was pulling my buddy out after these pics and I got stuck. All my fault for being a newby... And what got me out of there after a while of thinking and digging was the rear diff lockers!! So again [MENTION=115403]Bilu[/MENTION] if you plan on going off the road this option only comes stock with the Trail Edition or you can buy the 2015 TRD and even better then.

Tape wrapped around your finger works as well .. :focus: .. just saying.
I like it, very clean looking... I have seen the connector that hangs down and this is so much better.

This is how I'm planning my LED bars to go
Of course in behind the grill, I haven't actually measured the openings to see what I can fit in there but I was thinking maybe 2 10" LED Light Bars. And I want the ones with the smoked lenses.
If you're still planning on putting lights in the upper grille, ten inch rigid sr2's will fit perfectly.

Revtek advertises 3/2.5 lift, do you think that's what you got and did you use diff drop and/or UCA's? And any rubbing? Looking good!

Yes that's still the plan, but I'm holding my expenses a bit right now. With all of this Oil Prices dropping (I should be happy about gas prices) we are uncertain on what will happen to our jobs up here. I'll do it later maybe in the summer when things clear up a bit. Thanks for the suggestion, I've been looking at other cheaper brands as well to see if I can get something different. I saw this OPT7 8" LED Light Bar in Ebay I might give it a try.
