Question about 08 tacos

damageINC · 10-04-2008, 07:42 PM

Hey all,

I'm in the market to pick up an 08 Tacoma here in Socal and it looks like I can get a decent deal. I had a couple questions about 08's though so I figured this would be a good place to ask. First, does the TRD sport package come with Electronic Stability Control? Second, the truck I can get a deal on doesn't have side impact airbags in it. The dealer said 08's don't have em which I know isn't true. So if I wanted to get them installed post purchase is it possible and would it be prohibitively expensive to do so?

@linkfeeney: Thanks. Yeah they're really cheap now that 09's are showing up. I really like the side airbags, but the other new features just seem like electronic crap that can short or break. I'd rather get an 08. The dealer said I could walk off the lot for around 23k. So we'll see.
