    :D

    I find the caviar holders inadequate for the Almas packaging but otherwise it's quite at home doing the slog from stem to stern on my smaller yacht.

    Oh boy. Figured we would get the expected Pro hate. Didn't think this would get political or racial.

    Easy folks! It's just a truck!

    Us Pro owners get a lot of hate here

    When you make a specific elitist thread about how we are different and better than the rest of these people

    What else would you expect ?

    Lay low
    Enjoy the pro

    Take pride in knowing these guys paying $450 for plastic grilles to Copy us and salivating about our skid pads (I got 6 pm if I want to sell my skid pad)

    No need for additional hate ;)

    Please point out how my Original Post was elitist. I don't see it. I didn't imply the truck or anything else about it was better than anyone or anything else.

    Simply trying to helpful. There are about 4 active Pro threads. Figured I'd try to consolidate things a bit.

    This thread is pointless, just like the TRD PRO.

    I work at Toyota in KY and it is very diverse work place. As for the quality my 17 sport has been awesome! For me the pro was not worth the extra $6000 and liked the look of the sport didn't need the off road stuff it does just fine in the mud and snow. most of quality issues are from third party electronics and overall new power train that Toyota is working to fix.

    I can only speak for myself, but I appreciate the idea of having a bunch of the Pro info, mods, tips, opinions, etc in one place. To me it's no different than the SR or OR owners starting a thread of their own to talk about their specific trim. I appreciate all the info current Pro owners have posted so far. Very helpful to those of us who plan to buy in the near future!

    I don't think so man. They were only going 5k over on the Tacoma and tundra pros a couple months ago.
    They have been raping fools on Sr5s with lifts and pro parts tho.

    I can afford Gas.
    Had the truck over a month and half, currently have 3400 miles.

    Complaints if doing over.
    • Couldn't Order the Truck I wanted. SoCal Toyota said no way to me. Five dealers.
    • Dealer process was shit considering I was paying their exorbitant rarity price. Walked out of one dealer because they were thieves.
    • No Gas Cap holder? Are you Effin Kidding Me? Camry had one, 92 P/U had one. This one? Nope.
    • Radio and Nav are Playskool level in comparison to the Car Market.
    • Why no Moonroof? What gives on that? Give me the option.
    • No rear disc. So much for High Performance.
    • What's with the slow roll on of power? Why didn't Toyota build a motor special for this truck.
    I knew what I was doing by getting this truck. It would be rare, even paying the extra money I know I will get it back if I sell it. Too soon to say if I would do it again. I haven't loaded the bike in the back yet, nor have I been in snow. The 4-Wheeling I have done hardly counts for calling it that.

    I guess 19MPG is good, sure seems like I'm filling it up every other day.
