    Hi guys, new to the forum, I currently own a 2011 gti and due to my lifestyle am looking to get a new Tacoma and have decided to Finance or Lease one. I haven’t made any solid decision other than going with the Tacoma but does anyone have a solid brief explanation as to whether or not to go with the TRD off-road or the Sr5. I’ll be towing a 14 foot v hull aluminum fishing boat via trailer, hiking, probably off roading (never owned a truck and I’m just a noob looking for any pointers and will value your opinion!

    With a lease its based on what you want/need.

    TRDs have better resale and you'll be able to sell/transfer the lease if you find money issues down the road easier with it.

    The SR5 will be lower payments, and you likely won't ever use a rear locker or crawl control.

    I’ve decided I’m going to muster up $3k and lease a 2021 Tacoma Sr5 and if I keep it ( which I most likely will ) I’ll just do whatever mods I want and not be upset when a trd pro drives by :)

    Good, now that you decided what YOU want to do, leave before people jump in and insist you are wrong based on their opinions. :thumbsup:

    True however it’ll be cheaper to lease it for me at this point I just recovered from the virus and am back to work and I’m in need of a new car as my current one just keeps giving me holes in my paychecks. Believe me I’d rather finance, but it’s ridiculous how much these people want for these trucks a month. It is what it is.

    If you want to financially recover, maybe don't look at a Tacoma.
    Do a 0-down lease on a Ranger or F150 or something and then give it up before it starts having issues.
    Then get a Tacoma in ~2 years.

    modding a leased vehicle could be very expensive if you can not undo them when the lease is up and you don't buy it
