So last Tuesday i was checking a local dealers website and BAM there she was:D.Went the next day to test-drive, and i went for it. Picked her up today. Cant wait to start buying goodies for her.

    Beautiful truck. After looking at the pictures of the 2016 Taco interior and exterior, I feel the 2nd gen looks much better. Especially the dash. Others may think it's dated but I feel it not only looks good but it's practical and functional. I have owned a 1st gen as well as the 2nd gen. No other truck on the road offers such reliability and value. I still can't believe the allowance I got when I traded in my 1st gen for my 2nd gen.
    Best of luck with you new truck.

    I was also torn in between the 2015 or the new 2016, but with its new looks(front end), new engine and most likely higher price I decided to go 2015. Plus yes, with the Tacos resale value you can always change your mind in the future and jump on the third gen.

    Is the TRD speed ball shift knob stock now on the 2015's or did you or the dealer put it on? If it's stock what did they do to retain the shift boot collar?
