    Hi everybody.

    I don't own a Tacoma (yet), but I'm planning on buying one in March, when my son is buying my 2012 Equinox from me.

    I used to own a 2010 Nissan Frontier 4x4, and it was a nice little truck. However, I always regretted not getting the Tacoma.

    My plan is to buy a 2015 Super White, double cab, 4x4 with the TRD Sport package. The closest local dealer to me is one of those "no haggle pricing" places, and they're quoting about $33,500 on this truck. That seems a bit high to me, so I may have to go to Indiana or Kentucky to buy one.

    I've still not made up my mind on the SR5 vs. the TRD package, since I don't off-road. I just like the looks of the TRD graphics. Hopefully the suspension isn't that different on normal roads.

    Welcome to TW.

    If you're leaning towards TRD just because of graphics... you can always add/change graphics for super cheap. Several guys here on TW who do good vinyl cutting.

    Welcome to TW :wave:

    The TRD does have different seats, but graphics are super easy to install. I have a pair that Ghost. (member here) made for me.

    Thanks guys. I didn't realize the TRD Sport had different seats. I'll definitely check both the SR5 and TRD seats out.

    Thanks, that's good to know! I've been reading these forums for a while, and I'm amazed at the knowledge people have on here!

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    If you don't off road just buy the SR5 and add your own TRD graphics later, save you several thousand dollars that way. You can buy TRD stickers all over places like eBay for next to nothing.

    Thanks, everyone. I've decided I'm getting the 2015 Tacoma TRD Sport, Super White. Now I'm just waiting for my son to get some $$'s together to buy my SUV and then I'm driving one home! :) I really love that orange TRD Offroad, but $38k just makes me throw up a little in my mouth!
