2017 TRD PRO, who's waiting?

love mine also, they did take away a couple small compartment below the dash,,, smooth riding, love the interior , major upgrade to my 2015 pro..

 

Would you do me a favor, as I wait for mine?

Would you do a measurement for me? From the ground/floor to the top of the side of the bed --keeping the tape measure center of the rear driver side wheel?

 

I'm

It's been a full week of having the new truck and it continues to put a smile on my face put 265/75r16 duratracs on and she's even better now

 

mine is 50 3/4 with stock tires,, with 265 75's prolly 51 1/4

 

Did you elect to have the rail on top? Have you used it before? I'm trying to figure out what I want to do up there, but I like the look yours has. Also, did you not want the mud guards?

 

That's the optional roof rack. It cost extra, so do the mudflaps LOL.

 

I can't get enough of this color! Also, pics don't do the truck any justice of how it looks from the front with the drl's and fog lights on.

 

I'm tracking. I paid for the mud flaps and also got the Predator step bars. The dealer wanted to throw on the rear bed step and the roof rack and I waived those off. Nonetheless, I'm mulling over the roof rack or I may put on an aftermarket one, perhaps a Baja Rack or Prinsu. My truck won't see many trails, but I think the roof rack completes the ruggedness of the truck.

 

Truck came with mud flaps from the dealer. I removed them because I don't like the look. Roof rack I added I need it for fishing and surfing but I do like the look of the roof rack as well.

 

Yeah I am considering a rack myself. Dealer or port must've installed the flaps. They usually charge for them.

 

@1bad2k and @Logcabins1....you guys have to get the step bars! The truck looks naked without them!

 

LOL. I'm thinking about the amp research power steps.

 

Very nice. Looks much improved with the Duratracs. It really should have come with tires like that, in the first place. I know it's only tires and they get replaced anyways, but I think the stock tires just look odd on the truck, for some reason. Your truck just looks right, to me lol.

 

I'm waiting for my pro. Suppose to be 1st week of November. Anyone know if theres a leveling kit for this truck? Toy Tec doesn't make one yet. I don't want to do suspension lift and lose the fox shocks.

 

I would keep the Fox OEM suspension and add a leveling kit , we just did that on my friend PRO and it rides amazing , way better than my after market Fox suspension (Fox 2.0 ) . All you need is 2 inch in the front and 1 1/2 in the back , and new bigger tires , the tires will give you an extra inch .

 

Thank you!

 

That's what I want. What kit did you use??

 

If i am not mistaking he used these , You can get these from Toytec Suspensions , they know everything about Tacoma suspensions.
TAC2 - 2" Front Spacer Kit
B-15 - Toytec 1.5" Rear Blocks

 

I wish people would start comparing msrp vs msrp when they try to justify the trd pros

 

Compare MSRP of a Pro to what? Another Pro? Or another Tacoma? I conducted my own calculation to "justify" my Pro that included multiple factors, not just cost. Time was one of those factors as I am not a skilled wrencher and would have had to take my truck into a shop to have a number of items installed on the truck to make it Pro-like. This costs both time and money. Maybe the part would be cheaper had I procured it on my own, but the time is more valuable. Microeconomics 101: opportunity cost. I'm comfortable with my rationale, my "justification" of the Pro, and I love my truck.
