    I traded my 2020 SR5 for a new TRD OR yesterday. I drove from Lebanon, TN to Stone Mountain, GA to buy it. I shopped for weeks before pulling the trigger and they gave me the best deal by far. My wife and I got home at about 0130 this morning but the drive was worth it.
    I really like this truck. Took me a good while to figure out how to turn-off all the warning buzzers and ding alarms but I think I have it like I want it.
    There seems to be less storage under the rear seat than my 2020 SR5 so I'm gonna have to figure out what I need in the truck and what needs to stay home.

    Well, I pretty drive fast (for an old man) and when no other traffic is around I don't always stay perfectly situated in my particular lane. So any time I would drift at all on the interstate a warning would sound. Also when a vehicle would come up along side a warning would sound. Additionally the auto-dimmer was driving me crazy. Several people in the opposite direction had their high-beam lights on and mine would not even allow me to flash my brights to let them know I did not appreciate being blinded by their lights. So I turned that off also. The front collision warning was also set at the most sensitive level. I'm still learning all the bells and whistles on this truck. I'll get everything set the way I want it by the end of the day.
    Regardless, I like this truck.

    My truck has lane keep assist turned off when I start it. Is that not the factory setting?

    Nice looking truck. What kind of deal did you get in GA? I'm in middle TN but there isn't a manual transmission available in the state. I see quite a few in GA but haven't heard great things about SE Toyota dealers.

    Very cool! Congrats!

    The only thing that bugs me is it's an Off-Road, yet they put those steps on it. Why would they do that? It should have sliders instead.

    MSRP Sticker was $50,578 plus tax, title and registration. I gave them my truck and $21,600 out the door. My SR5 had over 57K on it so I think I got a pretty good deal. Much better than any dealer around Nashville would offer. I realize it's not the type of deal I got when I bought my 2020 Tacoma but it was a buyer's world then; Now it's a seller's world.
