That's brisk baby. At least we will reach a high of 18 today. Hey, that might not seem like much but it's 35 degrees more than where we started and a lot better than the days with highs that are still negative.

Yea but is it a "wet cold" like we get here :lol: just kidding I don't know how you do it. I thought my ears were going to fall out with all the wind that was blowing with these cold days.
 
So Toyota announce the new TRD Pro series at the Chicago Auto show about 30 minutes ago. Basically you can get a 4R, Tacoma, or a Tundra with this package. All of them come with Bilstein shocks, a leveling kit, and new badging. I think they missed the boat a little here ( I was hoping for a front locker option and secretly pulling for a Prado or 70 series Ute release), but I'm really digging the "TOYOTA" on the front grill. The article is below.

Thanks bud I was planning to check that out today as well but as usual you're on top of your game :D I have to say I'm very disappointed after all the hype I've seen on FB and media "Raptor Challenger" bla, bla, bla and IMO it's nothing more than a suspension and appearance package kinda like they did with the Ivan Stuart Package Tundra years ago. Yea it looks cool but that's the easy part I was looking for the PRO models to be a supercharged, long travel suspension, big brake and skid plate package with crawl control and rear locker kinda model with some serious off the lot off-road performance over what the normal packages offer. You can buy all of the aftermarket parts of your choice with similar or better performance for less IMO :(

John Stw,

Thank you for the reply. GREAT looking rig!

When will you be in Mason? I used to live there... owned the white metal shop just south of the Dairy Queen.

I could probably get the fiberglass top to Mason. I still have friends there.

Thanks again!

So if you can get it to the K2 park, we can try to fit it on or maybe Chip will have room.

NO worries, i should have put it out here sooner. it was good trip, I missed the ice and snow up north sunday night and missed the ice and ice and ice down south on monday night/tuesday. so i planned perfect.
 
Talk about good timing :) that's hard to plan lately around here

I didn't realize how much a difference a 2" lift made.

Nice :) was it Ms Donna? On second thought that might be too dirty to be Ms Donna's 100 ;)
