    Hey everyone!

    Just picked up a 2013 SR5 4x4 45k miles, with the convenience package (400w 120v outlets) last week through Carvana. My last Toyota was a 1991 corolla that I drove until it hit 190k miles and I know first hand how reliable Toyotas can be.

    I have friends who are into Overlanding (GX 460 and a Raptor) but this is my first 4x4. I'm mainly interested in getting a rig that can support my interests in surfing, kiteboarding, scuba, backpacking, and rock climbing. I'm thinking of a 3" lift and some 285 tires would definitely be able to get me into more remote locations for all of the hobbies above.

    You got yourself a low mileage tank! Sometimes I wish I kept my early 5th gen, they have a more rugged classic Toyota look to them. Welcome!
