Poll - Why did you choose the TRD Sport? - 3rd Gen Owners

I chose the TRD Sport because it has a hood scoop. Do yall regret owning one?

 

I chose it because it's what the salesman told me to choose.

 

How can one mimic a pro if they weren’t available in the 2016 year line up?

Edit: when the 3rd gen sports were

 

MT was a must and i wanted a DC. 60k for a pro was not happening, even though i really really wanted one.

Absolutely no regrets, love this truck.

 

hmmm maybe it should be "2017+"

 

I had no need for a rear locker or crawl control and I preferred the ride of the Sport. Most of my time is spent commuting to work, so the better ride and handling on-road was important to me. I also liked the color matched wheel flares, bumper, etc. And yes, I dig the scoop!

 

I actually really like stock sport suspension. Its far from "trash" like most guys say. It handles great on road, where i spend 80% of my driving. Also it performs well with heavy loads. I drove my buddies OR and its way too soft and the nose dive is annoying.

 

Scoop is awesome. Just makes the truck look so much better.

 

I chose the OR. The fake scoop just looks stupid.

 

Agreed!

The nose dive was bad in my OR. Looked like I was always slamming the brakes, even on easy stops.

 

Mostly it was a timing thing, but I like the scoop, I like the big rear end, never used a locker or CRAWL in my other Yota's, and had to have a manual.

EDIT: Plus I knew most of the stock bits would be on Craig's in short order

 

I didn’t choose my truck. My truck chose me.

 

You mean like posting that you bought an Off Road in a thread where OP asked what led people to buy a Sport?

 

I pointed the cover of the brochure and said "i want that one" The blue wasn't the same as the cover though. Much disappoint

 

And you drive a 2nd gen too...

 

Exactly...

 

Somebody might have called them sport.

 

V6 AC MT only comes in Sport in the US

 

I can see this thread going about as well as the morning after taco & tequila tuesday

 

Replaced the 2005 TRD Sport with a 2017 TRD Sport..

No Regrats.
