Never skip leg day...

 

I was really thrown off by the steps? The truck was like 6 inches off the ground.

Probably gets to 60 in 3 hours fully loaded

 

everyone knows that Tacoma's are super duper sleeper high performance expo race machines.

 

This is actually Factory hahaha

I believe that is the TRD edition. Ya know, Toyota racing development. It's like the next step up from the sport edition one

 

Yeah, I heard that this is what they are putting in the new 4runner. It'll be diesel too and also get 50mpg. Mike Sweers said so in an obscure auto blog, it HAS to be true

 

Are you going to get that supercharged TRD pro 4Runner ?

 

Negative. Really wasn't all to impressed to be honest. On paper it sounded great, 4.56's, Supercharger, Icon tubular UCA's, 285/70 17's, spacer lift(GAY) and a not too terrible price tag just under 55k... But the performance was lack luster when I drove it. Maybe 7/8 pounds of boost at most... You could certainly hear the supercharger, but didn't move as fast as the whine suggested. I had SDHQ's 4runner as a loaner a few day's prior, so I had a reasonable fresh basis for comparison and the supercharger just didn't add much.

Plus no sunroof..... Rather get, and plan to get a TRD Off-Road Premium and do a mild build.

 

"Mild" build

 

famous last words

 

#oldpeople

my mom was asking to lower her truck because it's hard to get into for her. And she has steps.

 

my ferd is a "mild" build lol

 

Is that a spare axle tube I see there? I need one of those!!!

 

A non ADD one?


You can just lock your add over and that will be the same thing as what you're looking to do...


That spare is off of my spare diff... Or I would let you have it!

 

Well that’s disappointing. You are right though on paper it sounds incredible.

 

Perhaps my expectations weren't aligned properly, but again, on paper and based of off Magnusson's claims, it should have been more impressive than it was. Oh well, cheaper for me to go with my originally planned route and will give me more of what I want.

At the end of the day, these toyota engines just don't leave a ton of room for improvement as far as power goes. They are certainly reliable and get the job done, but other than that, there really never has been much on tap for power adders.

 

Where you going to trade in or add to fleet ?
