    Looks like the previous owner used that part of the hitch to pull a stuck truck out of the mud or snow.

    I think they hear a female voice on the phone and try to pull one over thinking i'm a damsel in distress. o_O My eyeballs work, your bumper and hitch are shit.

    Can anybody in here tell me if the 2017 TRD pros came standard with the dual exhaust? Or was it an option?

    I believe it's an add on you can buy. IIRC, they don't come stock with dual.

    Well, I made the jump earlier this week. Ended up in a 17 TRD Pro. I'm loving it so far, but it needs some suspension work to catch up to my last truck.

    Here was my Tacoma.

    Thanks :thumbsup: the new build took off pretty quick actually. The suspension went from good enough to being replaced in about ten dirt miles. My wife is not happy :rofl:

    What years are you looking for? Nothing too big of difference between them besides slight suspension differences. The sport as the trd sway bars which help it stay planted on turns and helps out on towing a little. 2020 started with the remote keyless entry, push button start and Apple CarPlay.

    Check out Tundras.com :thumbsup::spending::burnrubber:

    Looking for a 3rd gen with the 5.7. Looking at moving in 3 yrs and want it paid off by then so towing a boat will be easier and safer than my 2011 taco when i move mainland. I figure i can prob get $15k ish for my truck to put towards tundy. Then pay off the rest in 36mo

    There was a cam tower leak issue in the 5.7’s. Tundras.com has a lot more info on it than what I have.
    Dealer gave me 19k towards my 14 tacoma with 95k miles. Used it towards the tundra. You will be happy with the towing capability on the tundra. Especially from the tacoma

    I just journeyed 8 hours to NC and 8 hours back to get my Tundra. Could not find a crewmax with the SX package (color matched grill, bumpers, etc) anywhere closer. Definitely happy with the purchase so far. Excited to tow our camper next week and see how much different it feels.

    I traded the ol taco for a tundra. huge difference and i dont regret it until parking gets tight. the 38gal tank is super nice. with a 25 mile drive one way to work its nice only filling up once every 8-10 days or so instead of twice a week.

    Dumped my '16 red Tacoma TRD sport for a 20 red platinum a week ago. Couldn't be happier. Better ride, less shifting, more room and quieter.

    How is the handling compared to the Taco?

    Also hear the trd sway bar helps greatly
