    There have been a handful of different Limited Editions by Toyota, this is nothing new to them, though probably not to this scale. Congrats on your purchase! I'm personally very disappointed by the Pro Tacoma and 4runner. They sure talked them up.

    I still have mine, but I promised the wife I would sell it and not do a bunch of mods to this truck. So....if anyone is liking for a bumper and winch, let me know.

    Dump the exhaust after rear axle, Satoshi the grill, Icon Stage 4, BHLM. Oh, it's a Pro, it already has that done, that's why it's more expensive. Silly me.

    Congrats! Truck looks sick, that's the exact spot i saw them parking it into yesterday as I drove by. Now my wife doesn't have to hear me say how much I wanted that thing anymore, seeing it parked out on the front line kept giving me an itch to trade mine in. Any future plans for the truck?

    No plans. I installed my console organizer, weather techs, bed mat, and I will probably install the access cover. I might add my N-Fab steps also. I have all of that stuff, so no more purchases! I am done!

    I also purchased the wheel/tire road hazard and the 7 yr/100K warranty. The Finance guy didn't pressure me into the road hazard, but it was just a few dollars, and he said it works! I guess we will see.

    Showed up just after 11:00 am this morning, and I was out of there by 12:00-12:30. Josh Dail is the guy! They do have a TRD Pro Tacoma Access Cab. They are slated to get a black TRD Pro 4Runner very soon.

    I was wondering when they would get a 4runner pro in, that would be my pick if I trade in my truck.

    My Tacoma is my first ever Toyota, so I've only dealt with Charles Barker for that so far, but I am impressed with the dealership. And my Tacoma. We also have a Hyundai Santa Fe purchased from Checkered Flag Hyundai. No complaints there either yet. Both dealers were relatively painless, willing to negotiate and gave me great values on my trade ins.

    Just to give you my honest opinion about this truck. Yes, it looks great but the truck is way overpriced. I would rather get a trd off road model and make it my own with 8k in mods. Full Icon suspension, wheels and tires. Still would be way under the price of what those things cost. Big profit for toyota!! Congragulations on your purchase!

    First, congrats on your new truck. Now with that said...

    You got rid of a perfectly good 2012 TRD Sport for a 2015 TRD Pro??? NUTS...

    You paid a MSRP of $38k (and I thought I paid too much for my 2014 TRD Sport - $31k before taxes and fees). Absolutely freaking NUTS...

    I guess some people just have $$$ to burn. And yes... NUTS...
