2016 TRD DCSB Pics

Not to sure. Pop up on IG

 

Just did some investigating. Apparently it was brought out to fjsummit

 

I honestly think it looks alright. At least it doesn't have that snow plow under it. People don't like change so of course people is going to call it "fugly". I'm pretty sure the samething was said before the 2nd Gen even came out. And look how that turn out to be

 

I love the black over fenders.

 

Nope that thing is ugly. Sorry, love the rear, the interior, that front end though is horrible.

 

kill it with fire

 

hahaha. someone needs to photoshop the face of that truck with the thing from the Thing and make a meme out of it.

 

I have no Photoshop skills!! we need an expert

 

And, no ones pressuring you to buy it.

 

Nope and guess what its a free country, im entitled to my opinion just like you are to yours.

 

Yay!!

 

From the same IG account. I hadn't ever seen the inclinometers on the OR before:

 

See I love the interior. Just cant get over that front end.

 

The front end issue reminds me of the last gen Mazda, where everyone complained about the smiley face. Obviously it's subjective, but what is it about this front end that people find fugly? What's an aesthetically pleasing one look like? After 20+ years of driving cars, I'm finally considering getting a truck. Unfortunately, I never paid attention to trucks. I guess I don't have a developed palette. haha

 

The huge underbite (for safety standards), the tiny headlights with a humongous grille, the chromed out grille, the bumper insert (black piece connecting fog lights), etc. It dosent flow and lets be honest its not very appealing, its like all the recent truck designs huge giant inflated front ends, chevy, ford, nissan are all doing it. It looks like a pig, its been 3 years since the release of the new chevys and I still think that front end is gawd awful. But everyone is entitled to their opinion, many will argue it will grow on us and that people didnt like the 2nd gens either, but if you take the time to go back, there was far less outcry, I love all the improvements toyota made to the interior, features like the tailgate, but the design dosent flow at all its a 2nd gen cab with a reskinned front and back that looks bloated. pics of the hood popped show the huge empty space (6+ inches) that braces, extends, supports that monster ugly front end. They took a 2nd gen and frankensteined it. Needless to say the outgoing 2nd gens are a great platform that needed updated but this new truck is pretty ugly, but then again so are alot of toyota's new designs (mirai, etc.) End rant. Not hating on everyone getting one, its still a taco, to me though even seeing it everyday in pictures for the last 6 months I think its still pretty fugly, saw it in person as well at the autoshow and still like I said everything but that front end.

 

Unfortunately, a lot of the front end designs you are seeing are due to NHTSA pedestrian safety regulations that are coming out. If you look at the basic design to and full size truck grill, even the Ford Transit van, have the same design on the bottom of the grill. Way of the world to come, I suppose...

 

Yeah good points. Maybe the aftermarket will have some solutions. I'm still gonna consider the '16 DCSB V6 4x4. Not sure which model to go with yet. Whatever I get I plan to keep for a long time. I change cars all too frequently.

 

People don't like change for the worse.

 

3rd Gen looks just like 2nd Gen. Hope the engine is better. No pings.

 

maybe the cab, that front end looks nothing like a 2nd gen.
