    I believe audio plus wound add the camera. But I don't think compass/temp is an option

    Off to Ukiah tomorrow to trade my '09 2wd for the '14 4wd truck. Thanks to NoDak for doing some work for me. I did do a search after that and found "trucks" in stock at dealers that didn't have them. Some aren't getting them for a few more weeks.

    Have a few things to take off mine and then it's a road trip with the wife early to miss Bay Area traffic.

    After a long day (400mi and 9hrs), wife and I finally came home with the new 4x4 ACOR and traded in my 09 ACOR PreRunner. Love the new truck but miss my old one too. Dealer was impressed on condition of my truck and I was satisfied with the deal. If anyone in the No. Cal, So. Cal, Central Cal, NV, OR, WA area (you get the idea) make a deal with Thurston Toyota http://www.thurstontoyota.com in Ukiah, CA. Be sure to see or ask for Jeff Coddington for great service. I also used www.cars.com (thanks NoDak again) for the heads up. I actually got the only one in CA at the time.

    Like the subtle differences between the two. Front does look tougher and the inside is a huge improvement. Carpet is now black not gray and the center console is black which gives it a nicer look imo. I like the radio (gave up my JBL system) but sounds ok now and will do the App/Navi radio change. First thing to change is the mirror and get back my compass/temp/autodim and add the homelink through the member on this side (Bob). I took my Access tonneau cover off my old truck and it'll fit the new one along with my aluminum Toyota side tube steps. After that I'm just going to use it the same as my old one. The Tacoma mats are nice and will just have a rubber heel pad sewn in for now. I don't do "mudding" so they should be as good as my TRD one's I had.

    Attached a few photos showing changes:

    Jimmy...the salesman, has explained to me that my newly built Tacoma will be here in CT on/about March 20th. It hops a train to Newark from San Antonio, then a truck to CT.

    Two Weeks of travel!?!? UGH!!!

    I just realized I miss blowing donuts in my old TRD and fear I possibly didn't do enough.

    Still waiting on my Limited PMDC. No word from the dealership other than they may not be making anymore this year. I am tired of putting mods on my son's Taco. I want my own to mod.:mad:

    Do I dare say the words here, I may have to buy a Rubicon Unlimited to keep me busy. Already have two Jeeps in the family and I am a Truck guy. This is getting old and don't think I can hold out for 2015s. :eek:

    Hope you get yours soon.

    Thanks!
    Rubicons are very nice, I am just a Tacoma guy...even after the frame rusted away on my 2000 TRD.

    Get the Limited! I would have if I could have :) why not!?

    My sons are 4 & 2...this can be their Tacoma...if the frame holds out!

    Great plan. Tried to give my son my paid off 2007 F150, SuperCrew Lariat and he balked... ? Really, it is loaded, v8 4x4, but he didn't like the color so I decided on the Taco for his vehicle and I like it so much I have ordered the limited. Since we have two jeeps, the SR5 SMDC and the Ford that are 4x4s in the family I will most likely wait for just what I want, how I want it. I get an itch to mod, and I am tired of tricking out my sons taco.

    Yes he and his sister are spoiled but good kids, good grades. I am surprised how hard it is to get the PMDC Tacoma though. Guess it's not like it was when I ordered my Camaro RS/SS in 2010. Thought it was, give deposit, wait, and what you ordered gets spit off the line at some point minus the dealer installed options. Guess I was way off.

    Still don't know why he doesn't want this. Low miles too. Maybe because of the 11 MPG.

    The main reason was the 4x4, but I wanted to keep my MG color. That was even harder. :)
