5th Gen 2011 4Runner Limited / Trail Mutt

I've spent many months here lurking and soaking up great information so I wanted to sort of officially say Hi. There have been a few posts recently on the 5th Gen 4Runner so I thought I should share mine. Complete build thread is on T4R.org

Started life as a 2011 Limited with low body skirts and thin 20" tires. Nice enough for highway driving and did ok off road but some mods were required.

Before:

seems that the trail ed. is hard to find?

Seems to be only one Trail for every 10 of the other models whenever I stop by a dealer. But they are out there. I decided on the Limited mainly because its the only version with full time 4WD. The extra creature comforts are nice too!
