    I spotted the 2018 Tacoma Offroad today at the local dealer. So new that they still had the protective covering on them. I like the bed divider...

    They darkened areas of the lights on the 18, but those aren't Pro lights. The rears have clear lenses too on the Pro

    I think you're exaggerating a bit. I don't thinks it's the best they could have come up with but it has grown on me. I do like the darker color of this new grill much more than the almost chrome of 16-17 MY.

    I was hoping they would at least freshen up those rims for 2018, maybe 2019 well have a different choice rims for the O.R. That grill is terrible , hopefully a new stlye will be available on the 2019 allso.

    When they change something they are supposed to upgrade, not downgrade.
