    Voted OR, but getting a Sport. The OR is more 'truck', but I like the color-matched fenders and will be driving 99% on road so am just being realistic. The 4x4 will only see snow and the occasional muddy yard/field. The LB will get lots of use though.

    Sport. Toyota Canada doesn't offer the off-road double cab in Canada. So I didn't have a choice to make.

    Not trying to argue at all. Just curious. You said you like the looks of the sport better. If mainly based on looks, then why not the SR5 with the appearance package?

    I said I liked the looks of the Sport better, meaning better than the Off-road. But it's not just about the appearance; I also want the bells and whistles of the Sport. Was even tempted to get the Limited for awhile but I still like the looks of the Sport more

    My question is how is a 2015 offroad more capable than a 2016 sport? Besides locking differential

    Let's see...Sport has oversized wheels and more expensive street profile tires, big fake scoop that blocks vision and makes turbulence.
    So...I guess I will be getting the more sensible truck- the OR access cab with the manual transmission.

    What! No manual transmission on the sensible truck? WTF? I guess Toyota just forced me into the 4 cyl.

    I vote SR!

    minor, TRD skid plate, front recovery points, Regken mud flaps, rear diff breather, AC drain pipe extended. Upgraded sound with active sub woofer, tonneau cover, CB radio.
    Appearance is a matter of taste, IMO, in Canada TRD OR with long bed and MT available, that's what I drive. With MT you don't really need crawl control, again, depends of skills/experience/technical condition of your truck.
