    Hello all from upstate NY. So, I just purchased a new '17 Platinum in Magnetic Gray. It has a whopping 5 miles on the odometer. I installed a TRD shift knob, am getting the Line-X bedliner Friday, and immediately installed 295/55/20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers before taking delivery of my new baby. I traded in my beloved '11 Land Cruiser and she will be missed. However, I missed having a truck and the dealer offered me a deal I couldn't refuse. I will stick with the stock wheels for now, but may upgrade later. Plans are to eventually install a lift which may consist of the TRD Pro suspension, or maybe a toytec. However, I want to get acquainted with her first for a little bit :) I look forward to interacting with you all and stealing some of your ideas to help with my mods...I hope you don't mind :thumbsup:
