Hello from USS Nimitz, "new" '05 in San Diego

[SamNavy]

I've been looking for a new DD/baby hauler for months. A buddy just bought a new Highlander and I was sold except they're just as expensive as 4Runners but smaller and not as capable. I worked out a budget and shopped for a few weeks and this is what I bought.

'05 SR5 w/80k miles
As far as I can tell, it's a base model. I'm 6'4", so not having a sunroof is a bonus. The paint is spectacular and the original shocks even feel like they've got some life left in them. The interior is immaculate and so far I'm very pleased.

I'm amassing a load of questions that I've been unable to answer, but those'll be saved for a separate thread. Currently figuring out my mod path.

Cheers!

First off, thanks for all you do!!! Congrats on your new truck. I wish the engine compartment in my 2005 looked that clean! Use it well.\

Thanks for the welcome! After I drop the kid off at daycare, gonna see about a little detailing. I bought some "product" yesterday at a local detailers supply store and want to see what a $20 bottle of stuff will do.
