Recently got my Trailhunter and I absolutely love it! It's everything that I was hoping for.
I'm 6' 2" and was worried that the roof would be too low, but very thankfully I've got enough room.

Since the Trailhunter already is fairly well outfitted for off-road use, and I don't expect to be going on demanding trails my build was kept conservative.

Here is the list:

Q – Car Care complete ceramic coating.
Hood vinyl mat black wrap.
Front half PPF

18x9 Method MR701 BLK PAINT rims

LT265/70R-18 BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 E

So how do you like the BFG E-rated All Terrains? I have read some people saying they love them, and others saying the weight of the E rating destroyed their ride. I plan to get some for mine (once it arrives!) so I am really anxious to hear your thoughts and experience after your long trek.

Fantastic! Looking great. I'm 6'4'' myself and fit great. No way I'd fit if they included the sunroof though. Congrats!

I can't justify the PPF cost personally, but I think you'll be happy with your choice if it's worth it to you. The paint seems thin and scratches are already showing up with the black color I have. ...I just have to keep reminding myself I bought an expensive tool for a job while simultaneously crying inside with each new scratch. Ha!

Nice so far. Can you please go into a little more detail on the VTT OBD lock. This is the first time I've even seen something in this neighborhood and not sure I completely understand.

Cheers

How much for the ceramic coating? Debating having someone do it or using Adams Graphene Ceramic Coating™ Advanced to save $$$.

I really like the E rated KO3's. The ride is firm but not harsh (make sure to not over fill them. I keep mine at 33 PSI). I don't find the tires noisy and I like knowing that I have a beefier side wall for any off road abuse. Please keep in mind that I had KO2's on my Gen5, so maybe I'm used to the way they are.

Thanks for the complement. Yeah, I was glad to find out that the Trailhunter didn't come with a sunroof. I tend to keep our trucks for a long time so the PPF was worth it.

To ceramic coat the entire truck cost $1,500. A five year warranty comes with that.
Q - Car Care is one of the best shops in New England.

Yeah, I was worried before hand that it would "darken up" the truck too much. But when I picked up the truck afterwards I loved it.
Have fun with yours!
