I got more excuses than a kid without his homework. I still haven't managed to take a picture of this thing yet. It is just one thing after another. First I had to travel for work, then every time I think about it it is raining or something.
Anyway, I love the ride, I still haven't put 500 miles on it yet but I have had it for a couple of runs on the highway and it is great so far. I only have two tiny gripes, the gas mileage and the stock stereo. I probably haven't driven far enough to get a true picture of the overall mpg but 15.5 average so far is a little sad none the less. But, considering how little I am driving to and fro for work lately it is no big deal. The stock stereo is pretty annoying, the inability to import my Iphone's contacts is irritating and the way the dimming is not tied to the lights correctly is maddening. Especially in the late afternoon here when it rains every day. If I want full headlights I have to live with a dimmed stereo display. How stupid is that?
I am already planning my first mods. I am looking at getting the Toytec 3" ultimate lift with the LR UCAs and some new wheels and tires. Not sure about the wheels yet, other than I will likely stick with 17". For tires I am torn between the Nitto Trail or Mud Grapplers and the Toyo Open Country AT or MT.
I will make sure and take some pics of before and after at the very least. Thanks to everyone for all the great info on this forum for helping me to decide on mods.
