picking up my new taco in a few days!!!

i have been driving a 2010 DCSB OR for 5-6 years and decided it was time to get something newer.
im picking up a 2017 DCSB OR with the premium jbl package in a few days, i love all of the upgraded creature comforts, my 2010 was pretty basic.
one question tho, has the size of the bed changed at all between the 2? i have a rightline bed tent that im hoping will fit the same in the new truck.

 

I went from an '05 to my '17 and while I haven't measured, the bed looks exactly the same to me. You will really love the new truck. Congrats.

 

Love mine, great maneuverability around town. Very smooth on the highway and the cab is extremely quiet. Enjoy your new purchase

 

Congrats...enjoy the new buggy. I believe the bed sizes are the same, one gent was asking if the 2nd gen bedmat fits 3rd gen box and the answer was in the affirmative...others will chime in

 

Ditto...............what color choice did you go with?...not that it matters they are all nice.

 

Congrats on the new ride!!

 

The bed is bigger/better on the 3rd Gen, about 2" or so deeper so you can carry more stuff with a cover or at least that's what I read somewhere.

Hope that helps
Cheers!

 

Yep, 3rd Gen is 1 or 2 inches deeper.

 

Hey OP... take off the front bed rail on your old one...... The new ones do not have them from the factory...you have to buy one if you want it. 2Gen rail will fit.

 

I did that too.

 

Thanks everyone.
I bought a black one. Always wanted a black truck.
As for the bed rail I always had my roll up tonneau cover covering that rail so I never used it. Just put the cleats towards the front of the side rails.

 

Congrats on the truck! Black is hard to keep clean, MGM is pretty bad too but looks so damn good clean!

 

My current taco is mgm. I'm used to washing it alot.

 

Congrats man. Hope you enjoy it.
Did you get auto or manual?
4WD or 2WD?

 

It is an auto 4wd.

 

Congrats!

 

I have a friend with a black OR. Nice choice. The SB is 60.5" in length. I believe they are deeper than the previous gens. And a locking tailgate!

does anyone know what the M16-M17 stickers are on the dash near the radio? i searched around and cant figure it out.

 

Yup lol.. I just leave mine dirty most of the time now, since I'm in the mud every weekend.

 

Congrats Op, now go enjoy it and stay off of here!
