    Looking to buy a 2021 Tacoma OR DCSB, don't really need the navigation since it has carplay. Which of the crappy stereos is easier/cheaper to upgrade to decent audio, the JBL system, or the base stereo that comes with the Taco OR. Do you gain ANYTHING by starting with the JBL?

    just avoid the JBL crap, get the standard entune BS, replace all speakers with higher end speakers of your choice, buy a mono amp, buy the add a amp wiring harness and plug and play my dude.
