So by the time you get done with all of these upgrades do you think you could have just bought the TRD Pro and been done with it!?

Haha, well so far in upgrades (not counting PPF), I have spent $4,100 which includes:
- Wheels/Tires/Leveling Kit installed
- Rock Sliders
- TRD Skid Plate

I bought the car for around $44k, so I am in about $48k, so I still have some runway before I have to look at it and say "damn, that could have been a TRD Pro" . But half the fun of these things is picking and choosing the exact parts and upgrades you want!

Yep my 5th gen TRD OR came with most of those upgrades. So I was happy paying the extra. Never wanted to upgrade Rock sliders as they smear mud/grime across the back of my pants when getting out.
I wanted to do bumpers and winch, but the list got to lengthy and expensive so I just enjoyed the truck as it was. Never really went into areas that I would need those, mostly just camping. And living here in SoCal we don't get much weather other than for me our occasional trip up to Big Bear or Mountain areas.

That makes total sense!

I have lived in SoCal my whole life, never been off-roading, barely been camping and this is my first vehicle that I can go off-roading with, so I am stoked to be able to finally explore all that SoCal has to offer.
Shoot, even just camping on the beach in the back with the back window open sounds amazing to me.
