    You mean when the 2nd gen guys come over here and assume that's the case? We just chuckle at your ignorance.
    Notice it's primarily 2nd gen guys that got lost in the 3rd gen section.

    The dealership I work at sells the TRD Pros for MSRP, ...BUT...Our waiting list is two years long. So If you want the truck, pay the $. If you wanna wait, call me in two years.

    Bring that thing out to Rausch. Let's see how she goes. Unless you don't want to scratch it up?

    I went with a TRD OR over the pro last month for 2 main reasons, I could get a sunroof, LB, and JBL in the off road. Not so in the Pro. Loved the cement color but i like my MGM a lot too. Ordered the TRD OR with black interior, then went with clazzio seat covers. My interior is near identical to a pro.

    I since have re geared, put on 33's, and am days away from a full FOX Factory 2.5 adjustable suspension. To me, my truck is nicer than a pro for right about the same money. The re gear was a huge and expensive upgrade.

    TRD' Pro is nice, but I like what I have. It was more work and time, roughly the same cost, but hey that is why were all reading this right?

    The drive train is much older than 12 years. The 4.0L and 5-speed transmission was released in vehicles made in 2002. Maybe even designed in 2001!

    But it's common knowledge that the dual vvti 4.0L and 5-speed is better than the current van motor offering and 4cylinder transmission.

    That's what I did on my OR. Just make sure you get the trade-in keys back before you go into the office otherwise you can't make a clean exit.

    "Market adjustment" is a euphemism for price gouging; they did that in 1990 when the Miata was introduced, I heard of some jackasses paying nearly twice the MSRP so they could be "first kid on the block". There is no way in Hell I'd I pay it and there is no way I would ever again set foot in that dealership...

    I agree. Parting out your mods before selling is key.

    Many prospective buyers are turned off by aftermarket mods, especially anything deeply mechanical. All they do is reduce the size of the customer pool, which in turn reduces demand for your vehicle, which of course reduces its value...

    I like my Pro.
    I like how it looks.
    I like how it drives.
    It has been dirty more than it has been clean.
    I can afford it.
    I like my Pro.

    I just don't understand why other people have to be a cunt about what someone else chooses for a vehicle.

    If you don't want a Pro, don't fucking buy one.
    If you want a Pro, then fucking buy one.

    I didn't want a Pro. I don't fucking buy one. Didn't make sense for me because I can't leave shit alone.

    Crazy right?
