i'll post more pics once i get done with the final mods i need to do to make me happy with the truck:

-gloss/semi-gloss black out all the chintzy old man style chrome bits and debadge all save for the L symbols
-install the sport rear tail lights (on order)

super happy with the wheel/tire combo so far. perfect fitment, wider than stock, and friggin' great value, but backed up by warranty thru a reputable dealer. the toyos are as good as the BFG TAs... in fact, i actually think i like the tread design better (chunkier).

Did some FL hill climbing, and mild off roading, haha...


Where in Florida is that? Looks fun.

Are you referring to one of those devices that allow you to play ipods/ipads through the FM channels? Is it possible to connect the iPad through bluetooth?
