    Finally!

    After waiting on a dealer that showed no interest in finding me a Pro, I got my deposit back from them.

    I was looking around on car sites, but was running out of luck when it came to Pros.

    Then when I was headed on a trip to my cabin, I saw this one sitting on the lot of the first dealer I had stopped at, but hadnt had one since they sold the cement one they first got.

    I called the salesman a friend of mine knew there and set up an appointment for Monday.

    Long story short...they offered me a very nice trade in price for my 06 TRD Sport and we made a deal. I had originally wanted one in Barcelona Red....but after seeing the white in person....I actually like the white better!

    Now I am the proud owner of a Super White '17 TRD Pro Tacoma!

    Put some 285's on it so the wheels/tires match the aggressiveness of the truck!

    Gotta say it man, I am not a 3rd Gen fan but THAT is a nice color combo! Great looking truck.

    Now I'm thinking the colors really affect the curves/shape of the front end, but that white really sets it off. Grille is a nice touch too. Congrats!!

    Hey J, I'm currently shopping for a TRD Off Road, but haven't been to a Toyota dealership yet. What's the difference between the TRD Off-Road & the TRD Sport (4x4 wise)? They are both off-road packages, correct?

    There are a few minor differences....The OR has a locking diff...different shocks...beefier tires, while the Sport is more pavement mannered and has a hood scoop.
