    2014 Tacoma TRD Sport
    Hello everyone, names Adrian. I got a 2014 Tacoma TRD Sport a couple months back. I have played with here a little (Table Mesa, Buckeye desert) but not to familiar with many places in Az to go. I like hitting up spots out in the desert to do some shooting as well. Dont like venturing to far out with a solo vehicle though. She is stock for now. Soon I would like to get the Baja Wheels with some better rubber and go from there. I have a decent amount of experience off-roading from my active time. Looking forward to hitting trails and meeting people.


    Picture from Table Mesa about 2 months ago.

    Welcome fellow westsider. There are a ton of trails from Gila Bend to Wickenburg to explore. For some reason I thought the "Sport" version was non-4x4, tells you what I know about 2nd gens. When you go to get new tires put on a mild lift first, so you can stuff a little extra rubber down there. I like to go shooting too, this was from a couple months ago:

    The Sport can be a 4x4, but it is missing a rear locker and A-Trac like the Off Road 4x4 has.

    Welcome man! Yea, also don't feel bad about not having a locker in the sport, it has the 8.4" rear diff vs the 8" the off-road has... which tends to break more. You can easily add an ARB locker later if you want (and do front and rear if you wish). A-TRAC is an amazing piece of tech, but it's still no locker.

    Also keep an eye on on this thread for upcoming runs and meets aside from the weekly ones already listed above. I try to keep it updated as I find out or people that help poke me they're doing a run...
