Well guys, pulled the trigger on some mobtown sliders. All I can say is there a great company to deal with and extremely helpful, can't wait to get them and hopefully test them out on the next meet up

Price seems about right. MSRP on my access cab TRDOR was $37k, although I didn't pay that. I've PDI'd colorados over 48k.

 

The tundra trd pro is 46k though..... im just saying either way its getting financed.

 

its all about what you want. if you want a midsize, the tacoma can't be beat. I can buy a 2500hd for 44k. But it isn't going to do me any good offroad, and the tacoma isn't any good for heavy towing.

 

Cant argue that at all. I also think all new car prices are ridiculous hah

 

Hard to believe we're in the 40k range on mid-sized trucks now....watch full-size prices shoot-up again to even the playing field back out.

 

Lol be careful testing them, my sliders worked fine but didnt help me

 

sliders dont work on earth mover tires there bud.

 

it did work on the rest of that obstacle course
