After looking for an 80 or a 100 in my area at the price point I could swallow, I ended up with a Sequoia. Rather than bemoan the lack of support for Toyota's soccer mom mobile, I began searching for forums that could give me some guidance on building up the remarkably capable platform. tundrasolutions board, sequoia-forums, and a facebook page devoted to sequoias let me find what I needed to tackle some Tree related upgrades.
I chose to go the middle route with Bilstein 5100's and ARB 2885's up front with ARB 2862's in the rear. I haven't upgraded the rear shocks yet to allow the killer droop the platform is capable of yet though. I also went with Toyo Open Country ATII's for shoes. A bit of trimming to avoid the rub.

Inner fender liner rub:
In the future I'll be adding some Brute Force Fab bumpers, HD-SLO sliders, winch and rear locker. Bit by bit as I have cash and time really. In the meantime, for a vehicle that is quite similar in size as the new 4 runner, I'm impressed. Couldn't make it to the inaugural Sequoia Summit, but glad to know the aftermarket is starting to see potential in the Tundra with the integrated shell.
