    Would that work? I always like that rugged look with oversize tires on my wheels but would having a TRD Sport suspension make it tacky?

    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    the suspension is exactly the same aside from the type of coil on the front of the sport/OR, so not sure what exactly you are getting at...

    Not at all. There are plenty of folks on here with some very capable and aggressive looking TRD sports.

    Oh ok. I thought the suspension was different. So I can go off road with the sport then?

    i thought you couldn't off road with a hood scoop ? ... but seriously you'll be fine, depending on how hard of trails we're talking here.
