    Hey guys,

    So my dealer finally beat me down and gave me a deal I couldn't refuse. So tomorrow I'm picking up my new Taco. It's the top of the line off road in black. I'm looking forward to having some creature comfort's, like heated seats, moonroof, heated outside mirrors, and that new crawl feature .


    Sad to see my Pro go but I'm sure I'll love my new taco

    Wrong. I had a 16 that was far from problem free, as do many here. An informed educated person is far more equipped than one that is blissfully ignorant. As with everything weigh out facts/evidence/source and go from there OP, there are a few who have had issues, some that have been trouble free and some with fixable nuances. Either way its a great truck still.

    Congrats OP, I love my OR too. I don't know if I would have parted with a 15 Pro though, that will be worth something someday. I tried to buy one before my 17 OR.

    Trading a 15 Pro for a 17 OR..... hmmm that's a tough one. Maybe the dealer had a buyer for the Pro lined up.

    What was the "deal" you couldn't turn down?? I'd probably have toe get paid to sell my 16 Sport for a 17 OR. Moon roof and heated seats tho.. thats going to be very nice! Congrats and good luck with the new taco.

    I couldn't have done it. Even if it was an even trade.

    Congrats nonetheless!

    Skip the LED and HID nonsense and do the H9 to H11 conversion. Cheap and gives you an upgraded light without having to readjust or worry about heat, etc. I prefer this over the Morimotos that I tried.

    I have H11 LED low beams and H9 LED highs ..... I have a lot of light. I use the RSI LED kits and have been very happy. I have H11 fogs but haven't felt the need to even install them yet.

    Thanks guys!


    Yeah it was a tuff decision, but there's was a lot of factors in this one... the big one was my Pro is a 6 speed and the wife can't drive it. I know some people would say that's great lol, but I wouldn't mind being about to swap on road trips lol.

    Plus this OR is loaded and I like toys lol

    Another good thing is I get to take all my accessories off and sell what I can't use
