    TRD off road models for the second gen didn't come with a color matched bumper. Did the previous owner add TRD off road stickers on them?

    I doubt the dealer is "scamming". The previous owner most likely put the stickers on the bedside and dealers are dumb as shit so they listed it as off road.

    I don't see the rear lock differential button in the pics but I do know none of the off roads in the 2nd gen came with a color keyed rear bumper and those are steel wheels that come with a base model that were painted black.

    They're scamming alright. If they get someone for $24k for that truck, trd or not, they should be arrested for grand larceny.
