    Stumped...Just picked up new OR 4X4 (loaded) and noticed no TRD Shift knob. I know, knit picky, but thought the TRD shift Knob was standard on an upgraded package. I guess I have the "stock" shift knob, which isn't bad at all, but was just curious...for you long time Taco experts, how does Toyota decide which vehicles/models get the TRD Shift knob?

    Ok, back to focusing on more important things.

    BTW: When they were trying to sell me on the nearly endless list of options to pick from at pickup, I noticed the TRD Knob was not on the list. AND, can you believe mud flaps do not come standard on a 4X4...WTF!

    I thought the TRD knob was just a standard option on the Pro?

    You can find knobs all day long for a very reasonable price since folks like to upgrade, or even wait out a @MESO ECT switch kit.


    The Toyota mud flaps are expensive trash. Spend less on a set that won't break away when you go wheeling. You want mine? I took them off before I had problems.

    Thanks for the info guys! Mystery solved...Pro version only. I'll stick with stock...very nice leather thing.

    Tonered - Thanks for the offer. Had I known a day or two ago, I would have jumped at your offer. Sadly, went with dealer option as I didn't want to have a bunch of sh*t kicking up and dinging the new truck. Want to get a few hundred miles before the scratches and dings start.
