    looking to buy new truck.
    Budget is $38,000
    Narrowed down too SR5
    And TRD sport, both 2 wheel drive, v6, 5ft bed.
    Leaning more towards TRD sport based on hood scoop pe and side mirror blinker lights .
    What else should I look for or consider when making final decision???

    TRD OR, Limited and Pro all have the side mirror blinker lights as well. You should have no problems securing a 2 wheel drive TRD sport or SR5 for less than $38k, I paid $36k for mine and is 4WD with tech and premium packages.

    Ok broJoe! I you go to dealers and see what they have to offer. Also sounds like you want the sport, but make sure to consider the off-road before making your decision. Let me know when you wanna go and I’ll go check out the trucks with you.

    2020 brings, passenger side smart key as well as driver side, optional power driver seat for Sr5 and TRDs, LED headlights are optional, new grille styles, new wheel styles for both and TRD Sport can be had with optional panaramic 360 camera. Still no word on new pricing, but will more than likely increase.

    I have a sport and have done plenty of trails with it. I’ve gone with a some OR owners and they seldom use the locker and crawl control features so I have no regrets with missing out on those features. Plus, the skewp:cool:
