2019 Tacoma TRD Pro gets a snorkel?

TFL posted a video featuring the same Toyota stock photos:



I can't believe the Taco PRO still uses the Goodyear Kevlar tires. My OR has them and I am very underwhelmed by them. At least they did their own "Desert Intake" instead of taking the muscle arm ARB one.

99% of customers don't need a snorkel.

Toyota: Hey, lets add a snorkel. That should drive them wild!

 

What’s killing me is the double stacked mail slots on the tundra

 

Same as the sport, which looks good in person IMO

 

I agree. Even Chevrolet throws duratracs on a z71 “off-road” model that has 4in ground clearance under that stupid air dam. I like my truck a lot but the factory tire choice is a major disappointment. I was honestly hoping for a little more than just a snorkel.

 

Not a fan of the hood on the Tundra, redundant scoops looks goofy. But glad to see it's back.

Who cares about a 6ft snorkel?? Is the cab even water tight? What they need to do is get rid of those damn highway tires. Same type of tires on sport, OR, and Pro. The Pro certainly deserves some decent A/T's.

Glad to see they're doing LED fogs and running lights on most models, but gosh when are they going to give us some decent low beams???! It's quite ridiculous that you have to do lighting mods on a $40k+ vehicle.

 

Tundra's LED reflectors are decent at least. That's 1/3. Lol

Crappy stock lighting keeps us in business, so from a business standpoint, keep it up, Toyota!

 

Yea I know, but still goofy looking. Especially non functioning.

 

A snorkel....kinda lame....there better be more

 

Tundra gets Fox and new BBS TRD wheels look good:

 

Looks like a sock puppet

 

Those Tundra wheels remind me of a spinner wheel. The center looks like its ready to start spinning at any second

 

Lol everyone jests but wait until there’s a “ZOMG, $50 China made TRD Pro snorkel clone from eBoob/Alibobo” thread.

And then people will complain it’s a 1 piece assembly instead of 2, or the letters didn’t come in the favorite color of neon green or something.

 

Lots of crying on this thread

 

What’s killing me is the Tundra. This truck need a complete, i said a COMPLETE redesign very soon, cannot compete with Sierra/Silverdaro/Ram, etc.... It's a dinosaur

 

I’ve got an 18 tundra coming from a 16 F150 and a 15 Taco before that. I can tell you my 18 Tundra build quality is well above the rest. Might be a dinosaur, but it is a truck. It doesn’t have the newest fanciest BS gadgets, it’s a damn truck. It does what trucks do and does it happily. Sometimes old simple dinosaurs are better than fancy new shit.

 

So JBL this time but still no moon-roof option on the taco?
