New Member...New Tacoma: 2009 Hawaii TRD Sport

So I bought my 2009 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 TRD Sport SR5 last Tuesday off of another fellow die hard Tacoma owner, he is getting married so he regrettably had to sell his truck....good thing it was to me.

The pics of what you see is how I bought it....here is what was included

weathertech floor mats
viper alarm
tinted windows
running boards
custom trd sticker (my favorite part about the entire truck!!)
car is flawless on interior and exterior (ive washed it twice in the first week and
still havent found a scratch)

he even used distilled water for windshield fluid so there is no outline from the wiper blades, this guy was on top of it


bought it with 7600 miles on it for $27,500

I was satisfied with the purchase and then I ran into this forum. All of you guys are very knowledgable about your taco's and I hope to learn and take something from all of you.

So I figured that I would post some pictures before I got to doing some mods....ones that I had in mind were

BLHM
Tracking Phone
Seatbelt
Dash LED gauge color change
im sure there will be more

let me know what you guys think...id like all input possible

 

Welcome to TW. Nice truck bro

 

thanks alot man

 

nice taco, nice decal as well on the side

 

thanks thats my favorite part

 

Nice truck. That trd decal is mean. One of those is hopefully going to be my next mod. I know sockmonkey makes those decals on the forum but did the previous owner say where he got his from? anywhere local? I saw you have a trd hawaii license plate holder too. Knowing how much used tacomas are out here i think you got a deal. With regards to mods im not so sure about the bhlm on your white trd sport. I like how the smoked headlights match the smoked color of the grill but if you did do a change what would really look cool would be to do a white headlight mod to match your paint and grill surround. If I had a white taco I would do that in a heartbeat and paint the grill emblem white. Thats just me though. Welcome to the forum and dont spend too much time on here it could be bad for your wallet haha

 

Very nice truck and a great buy! Welcome aboard!

 

Congrats. Very nice looking truck. Tacoma Sports are the best!

 

Nice truck! If your gonna do the BHLM with your current lights I'd love to trade you a set of perfectly good chrome inserts that you can paint black for your smoked ones. I'm local and live on the windward side.

 

Here is a little something to go on. I bought mine brand new. (09 DC Sport / long bed ) Paid $29,095 (invoice). Then I added all weather floor mats, bug deflector and Blulogic Bluetooth. Now I am up to $29,594. Then added tube steps for $360 from link I got from this site! (local dealer near $500 installed). Im now at $29,954. What you got for 27.5K sounds like a decent deal being only 7600 miles on it.

Congrats and welcome!

 

Congrats, good looking truck!

 

sounds like a good deal and the truck looks immaculate. congrats and enjoy it!

 

Looks like Kapolei.... I'd love to get a set of those TRD/ Hawaii stickers

 

I think you got a good deal!! Great looking truck and nice color!!!

 

Welcome to TW! good deal on the truck!

 

Now seal the deal and cover the seats with the Wet O's.

I recommend the charcoal with half piping and the TRD Sport logo in black.

(You're welcome for just helping you spend another $500.00...)

 

I bought the same exact truck (even mileage), minus the add-ons, for $27,000. So if you were going to add them anyways, I think for an extra $500 you got a very good deal!

 

Friggin' clean truck.

 

Great looking truck. I agree with the seat covers and would also recommend a new grill. I also have a Super White and added a black Grill Craft grill. Makes a big difference.

 

4X4 Prerunner FTW!!!
