Can't sleep so I thought I'd formally introduce my new to me truck and the few things I've done in those 3 weeks. It's an 07 with 92k. Thanks to all here who have been very helpful (as well as that handy search feature) for helping me acquire a minute amount of knowledge. Can't wait to learn more.



Before and after of running board subtraction and bigger tire addition (NTG 285/65/18). Also added front mud flaps via cdan.

Within a few days of ownership I noticed "the thud". Again, with the amazing wealth of information here, I was under my truck lubing that thud away (the next day found me buying a pistol grip grease gun).
I've added weathertech mats all around. A new console trim cover (mine looked like the PO used it as a cutting board). I also just completed the 90k service and added a Thule rack. The new Aero blades are silent w/o a faring. (FWIW, I'm a dealer of Thule and Yakima and prefer Thule of late.)
The misses and the wife love it.

Looks very clean.

I like the running board/deletion with the front mud flaps - nice color match.

Just wish the Thule aero blades fit the Yakima landing pads for use with the Front Runner rails... They are much cleaner looking - and functional - than the Yakima round bars, that's for sure.
 
Welcome! That's my second favorite color. It is amazing what a difference removing the running boards and adding a larger set of tires can have. I removed the running boards the first week I had my 100. Had to wait a year to go to the 275/70-18 BFG's.
 
Looks great!

Mine came with seats back there. Are 3rd-row dogs a factory or dealer option? I would have preferred that. :p Must be a NA model, I guess if it was a JDM spec. that would be an Akita

Very nice looking truck. Welcome!

Wow, I read that 6 times before I saw "dog" in there. I kept reading it as 3rd-row seat, which, of course, left me thinking geez, this guy doesn't know about the 3rd-row seats?

Anywho...the dog is definately not OEM. Too expensive for one and 2, I'm sure Toyota would have engineered out the shedding.
 
Hey. What "new console" trim cover did you replace. Was it the applied cover over the center console. Where did you get it? My console has some scratches around the gear shift area. Thanks in advance. Dat
