I purchased 3 Tacomas in the past 2 years :D hehe.. trd pro grill install on my 3rd taco

Probably being awesome at something

 

Oh snap. Point goes to fearthisbeard for insult reversal.

 

If you want to throw money away.. I’m looking for a new Tacoma myself.

 

Gotta keep everyone on their toes

 

Probably could have been on your 18th Tacoma with that $$$, brother in law and sister had to go this route too. But since you're a doctor you probably saved a bit on the delivery cost / care

 

Seriously, you don’t believe me? I have absolutely no reason to fabricate my purchase decisions. Here are photos of the vehicles with pictures taken at the dealership and my driveway.

 

Stay on topic...did the doctor have more Tacoma knowledge than op or no?

Turd gen focussed even? We need a poll

 

I say nay.

Title should have been, “I have more money that I know what to do with. I’m confused and would like public opinion to know if I going in the right direction”.

 

Maybe a show down between OP and the Tacoma doctor.

We could do a Pro Grille install off, you know since that is the only way to know if you're the ultimate Turd gen owner.

 

I'm a heritage griller b'ye...I still have the original braces so I can return to concourse standards in 10 mins flat...honest

 

Lol. God help us the day a 3rd Gen Tacoma shows up to pebble beach.

 

Pfftttt...Barret-Jackson here we come

 

Well if a BMW Toyota love child can sell for $2 million why not a turd gen.

 

I’m so unenthusiastic about the new Supra.

 

I love the way it looks, but its ruined in every other aspect (BMW interior, powertrain and no f**king manual).

 

Installing a pro grill on a TRD is like putting TRD stickers on an SR5. Kinda lame if you ask me

 

I thought I was the only one who felt this way.

 

Some share your opinion, others don’t. I think there is a middle ground that allows TRD Pro components on non-TRD Pro models. After all, Toyota even options TRD Pro components on non-TRD Pro models. You can get an Tacoma SR packaged with TRD Pro wheels. The breaking point is putting TRD Pro decal on a non-TRD Pro, that’s a no-no.

 

Not really true, you can't option TRD Pro parts on your non PRO truck from the factory, those are dealer add ons or aftermarket accessories purchased / add ons. And agree, even worse is the door badging on non Pro models, I also don't get the sport guys who go and put the non color matched fenders and front facia on to look like an Offroad or PRO.

 

I think the pro grille is fair game. It’s a heritage grille. If you adore Toyota’s, and it’ll fit, and you like the grille, it works. I think all Toyota models should have that heritage grille option.


I wouldn’t put a TRD sticker on my SR. Because my SR is a sport rally 5’er.
