2002 Step Side?

I purchased a 2002 Tacoma 2wd last week (113k) from the original owner. I am already the proud owner of an '02 Tacoma 4X4 (223k)that I've had for 13 years now. I know there is a different name for the step side models but can't remember what it is?

 

Re: other/alternative names for Step Side pickups:

Flareside (Ford)

Welcome to TacomaWorld!

 

Yes it is a stepside.
I had a 02 Toyota Tacoma SR5 Xtra Cab 4x4 stepside cab.Wish I still had it.

 

I thought I had seen "Sport Side" mentioned somewhere?

 

Yes: I believe Chevy used that name on their "Stepside" for a time on their pickups in the '80's. (external fenders) Otherwise across
all brands, it was:

Flareside, Stepside, Styleside, Fleetside and Sweptside (Dodge 1957-59)

 

this is a 3rd gen forum

 

A Fleetside is the opposite of a Stepside...
It has straight side panels

 

A new member asks a question about his 1st gen stepside in the 3rd gen forum: OH NO!! Armageddon!!

I'll answer a new members' questions even if they're about a Dodge: It's the right thing to do.
(Truck or Car)

 

Agreed: As does a Styleside, and a Sweptside. (Dodge)

 

A sphincter says what??
