should I buy this tacoma

if im not mistaken, shouldnt there be more buttons by the fog light and side mirrors like SCAB(side curtain air bags) and TAC(traction assis control) or something similair to that. i own a 09 TRD o/r so it might be differant but it doesnt look to be a TRD sport to me but coorect me if im wrong

 

And the chrome rear bumper the handles not color matched

 

OP, I would RUN and run FAST from this truck!! There are alot of things that does not add up on this truck. It has TRD SPORT decals but yet it's not a sport..No hood scoop, no colormatched grille, bumpers, and even side mirrors are a flat black color. It's definitely not an Offroad 4x4 given the missing buttons like locking diff button, etc..and a giveaway clue is that OR 4x4 is not available in a longbed. Did you notice a front differential when looking undercarriage or 4WD controls in the dash? I'm guessing the PO bought a basic model and passing it for a TRD Sport or whatever he/she can deceive the buyer into buying. Run the VIN and it will confirm my suspicion but RUN!!!!

 

Personally I would let this truck go. Like others have said , it's missing all the options that the TRD sport or offroad comes with.

 

Oh crap lol this isn't what I expected, I noticed the hood scoop wasnt there but chunked it up to it being an 06. Let me get a buddy to run the vin for me. Wow thanks guys, ill report back with what I find

 

hahaha...i didnt even notice the it didnt have a hood scoop and that shouldve been the first thing to notice but then again, ive seen then without a scoop(guy didnt like the scoop so he traded it with a no scoop hood). but dont buy this man. just be patient and your truck will come. i picked up my 09 TRD O/R pckg for 22 thousand and with 72k miles on it a few years ago. it now has over 128k miles and climbing since its my daily and i also love driving this truck just about everywhere.

 

I thought TRD Sport should have hood scoop and does not have chrome bumper( color match bumper)

 

WHAT A JERK OFF!! OP DONT EVEN BOTHER RESEARCHING THIS TRUCK.. ITS CLEAR AS DAY THAT THIS GUY IS A FUCKIN' DOUCHE!! KEEP LOOKING.. YOU WILL FIND WHAT YOUR LOOKING FOR.. GOOD LUCK BROTHER!

 

hahaha.... what this guy ^^^ said

 

IF THIS GUY ISNT HONEST ABOUT THE MODEL OF THE TRUCK, WHO KNOWS WHAT ELSE HE COULD POTENTIALLY BE LYING ABOUT..

 

Couple things I notice:
-Is the shift knob on backwards?
-What's with the lower dash panel lining up, looks like it has been removed for something? And is that a broken switch or something aftermarket next to the mirror switch?
-If the outside picture was taken at the same time as the interior shot, then the alignment looks off. (steering wheel and front wheel placement doesn't look right)
-The TRD Sport sticker wouldn't bother me, unless he is using that as a selling point.
