    With Sport you can get AC long bed with MT and larger differential sporting 4.88 gearing.

    I know I want the DC but haven't decided on a LB or SB. I'm not sure what a MT or CC is

    Manual Transmission and Crawl Control, that combo cannot be had though as MT gets A-TRAC and AT gets CC.

    Thanks. I thought mt was going to stand for manual transmission. I dont want a manual transmission on a truck though. then I will want to drive it like a race car, and that's what I have my motorcycle for ;D crawl control would be nice to have, but I dont plan on doing intense rock crawling. kinda leaning towards DCLB OR, then I'll just have to look for a VooDoo Blue hood to swap to get the useless (but good looking) hood scoop

    Longbed rides better on the highway, shortbed is easier to park.

    Longbed will probably not fit in the standard garage.

    Ive had both and with the shortbed I always wished I had a more room. With the longbed I've never thought I had too much.

    I will never have a truck with that little bed again.

    You can always dress up a flat hood too. A flat hood wont obstruct your vision like a scoop would.

    think you meant “MTS”.


    Cc is crawl control

    MTS is multi terrain select

    I'm looking for rear bumper too but none work with sensors which I love on my DCSB manual TRD Sport. Moonroof, hood scoop, leather. limited slip diff has performed well off road. Don't crawl enough to miss the locking rear diff. With a dog get a cap instead of tonneau and he can fart all he wants on long road trips. On long trip my husky sleeps back there when we stop at non dog friendly inns.

    I've seen a lot of posts lamenting Automatic transmission performance. Love the manual transmission. Taught my 14 year old to drive it. I was hit by a car a year ago on my Royal Enfield Himalayan and after I woke from a coma, I was in a wheelchair for a few months. I'm back behind the wheel of my Taco though. Shifts smooth and easy. Hood scoop isn't useless as I put a great 10" LED bar in there. Looks like the Millenium Falcon when I light up everything up front.

    That's one of the reasons I wanted the hood scoop, cause I want to stick a 16-17" light bar in there. Also planning on a roof rack with a light bar, and a push bumper with another bar. but the hood scoop just looks good to me, and with a light in there, it would be awesome!

    I just bought a 2020 OR long bed. I really liked the PRO, but it doesn't come with a long bed. I wanted a manual transmission, but not available with the long bed. The long bed was important to me.

    What is the Axle Code on your door tag? The V6 only has 3.91 for the AT and 4.30 for the MT.

    Are you SURE? Door axle code is 406A from memory (B06A you idiot)

    Yes, no factory 4.88's for our trucks, however you can get them in the aftermarket if you wanted. Your Axle Code is most likely B06A and not 406A.
