Is this an SR5 or TRD?

    This is a late reply. Thanks to all for chiming in. Looked up the VIN at Toyota and it is in fact an SR5 with aftermarket lift and such. Looking up the VIN in carfax says its a TRD. That's part of the confusion. A wanna be TRD for sure. Next purchase will be a true TRD. Or maybe I can modify this to convert to more of a TRD with rear lockers. Don't think I need crawl control (first off would just buy a new truck) and second I don't plan on driving in anything that aggressive that would need CC.

    Thanks again community. Much appreciated.

    Thanks for the confirmation. Part of why I have been confused.

    Glad you figured out what you have, if you are not in any aggressive terrain you probably don't need a rear locker.

    Yea I took off the stickers on the bed after I found out it was not a TRD. I plan on taking all the badges off though as I like the cleaner look.

    I agree. I use this for camping and some ORVing, but not anything aggressive.
