    First upgrade was KO2s on my Land Cruiser wheels.
    Little did I know that since I have the TRD Big brake kit, 18 inch wheels does not fit20200820_085346.jpg

    it had 110k miles at time of purchase. It has the trd bbk and rear anti sway bar. The body and interior was very clean with the mileage it has. I arrived at the dealer at 9am before they opened at 10am. Luckily there was a salesman available who had an appt at 9:30 but did not show up. There were 2 other buyers that showed by the tine we were inside the finance dept.an hour later. I then was having second thoughts buying a high mileage vehicle at their asking price. They had a 2020 TRD pro but the dealer mark up was 10000 to a tune of 66700 so stick with the 2014 and not get into debt. I paid 28800 for it. Crazy Bay Area prices. Law of supply and demand at play here

    Good buy , from ILL, My son just got his 2014 platinum a couple of weeks ago , with 107,000 on it , beautiful truck, now he's looking at tires also , only putting them on 20" rims. Good luck with build , I'm trying to talk him into lift and level kit also. Super White , like his Dads , He removed steps already, added husky floor mats, and Black Tundra letters for tailgate.
