TRD Pro & TX Baja OFFICIAL Thread...

I’m curious to what exactly that he did...swap the front coils to the newer billy ones?

 

It's a 2014 Baja. He replaced the hood with a scooped hood, replaced the door mirrors with color matched mirrors with turn signal lights, replaced the black door handles with color matched handles, replaced the grill with a 2015 TRD grill and replaced the grey TRD wheels with black ones. I even think he replaced the headlights to the smoked lens ones. He also de-badged everything except the Tacoma on the doors. Looks like a 2015 Pro.

 

I'd say that's the very definition of a T/X Baja Pro......

 

TRD PRO badge in red lol

 

sorry guys but I went to the dark side and traded in my 2015 TRD PRO inferno and bought a 2019 TRD OR 4wd in the cement color....

 

It's now a T/X Praja or a TRD Bro

 

Congrats?

Just curious - what was the deciding factor in making the change?

 

Weren’t there a couple guys here looking for a inferno pro, and in your area??

 

It was just time for a change.....I have a Taco buying problem.....this one will be my 8th Taco.....is there a therapy group I can join like Taco anonymous?!!

 

I did reach out to a couple guys from here.....I was on the fence about selling it.....until I went into the dealer and worked out a great deal...I didn't plan on buying but of course I did....LOL.....Toyota of Orange has it if anyone is looking for an awesome 2015 PRO Inferno....I just traded it late last night so it might take a day or 2 for them to list it.....

 

Wow..
How different is the drive one from another?
I haven't driven the new taco yet...
Also did you get a great resale value in your old inferno ?
Congrats for you new truck...

 

it's like night and day!.....the PRO drives like a real truck....firm yet not aggressive or harsh and you feel like you can conquer the world driving it.....but with not too many frills......the new Taco is "cushy" and comfy with lots of features.....the motor/tranny isn't that bad thus far....I have been getting on it though and revving it up in the higher rpms where it likes to be....I need a truck for work and I drive a lot so being comfy and cushy is nice.....LOL......besides, I never took the PRO off road......it deserves to go to someone who will actually use it for it's intended purpose!

I traded it at Toyota of Orange.....in Orange, CA.....keep your eyes open for it as it was an awesome truck!.....the new Taco was listed for $39,028 and I got it for $34,443 plus tax & title....that's $4,585 off msrp!.....I think I did pretty well on that end of the deal...I was hoping for more for my trade in but we went back and forth and I ended up with a "fair" price......the price they gave me honestly is over KBB but not what I thought I would get.....but I knew I couldn't get an awesome price on the new one AND an awesome price on the trade in.....you get one or the other but never both....and I get it that the dealer needs to make some $$

That's what I've been wanting......the cement color!.....I bought it late last night and today I put on new rims and tires......the Mods begin!....LOL

 

Cool men..
Thanks for the info..
Enjoy your new truck....
And yes those stock rims & tires need to be replace..
Hahaha

 

Just finished up my custom intake setup. Still need to re-adjust the clamps but it got dark. No more worrying about dirt and water with the factory tube in the fender!

 

Pulling air through the grille it looks like?

 

@Island Cruiser yes exactly. After I cut the flares the stock intake tube was exposed. I didn’t do this mod to gain any power. I just did not want to do a snorkel or cut a hole in the firewall and put the intake in the cowl.

 

Looks good man! Not a bad idea, I'm just worried about the debris that it might inhale

 

Let me preface this by saying I'm new here.

In all seriousness, is there actually additional resale value for Tacos with the TX Pro Package?

Don't know if I should admit this, but when I bought my 2013 I tried to have the dealer take all the TX stuff off because I didn't want to pay extra for it (but it was the only Pyrite Mica for sale in the state...) Maybe it ended up in my favor anyways?

 

A few tw members have tested the ram air scoop itself and say it is really good at keeping everything out

 

Would you be willing to put up a parts list and where you got the parts from to do this? I've been looking to do the same thing since I added the Demello winch bumper and the water can easily get up into the fender now.
