my new tacoma pro

Hmm do what you think you should. Do the true car value on a different model where you know what people have paid

 

dealers are not wanting to budge on TRD PRO pricing due to demand.....The best I have found so far is $500 below sticker

 

Wow. Well I guess it is a special situation, are you going to bite?

 

Yeah went ahead and put order in to try and obtain one. So from what 3 dealers have said.....is that based on how well they sell per year, they may or may not get allocated one and if a dealer who sells more happens to request another after selling one, then they get "first dibbs". Now I have been in the car business and sold for 5 years...there is truth to that. I worked for FORD. I hate doing the deal, however, after driving the Tundra re affirmed my decision to stay with the Tacoma size. I know people will give me crap for not buying an Off Road or Sport and modding it, but I do not have a liquid $3500-5000 to spend after I buy the truck. So I went ahead and told him to do it and expanded the color to include Inferno or Black since it will increase the odds of the dealer I am working with to get one sent to them. I also ordered the tow package on it. First time in years since I have been excited to get a vehicle since my 2004 Ford Ranger Level II Offroad Edition.

 

I don't think you will receive any crap for not building up, that is simply a possible route. The pro looks great and requires no modding, that in itself is a plus and you also have warranty. Good luck getting your options!!

 

thanks I appreciate it. There are soo many cool trucks and good info on this forum

 

I just recieved my tacoma pro! i switched from a 13 Off road. And boy does this one take the cake! check it out! I also have custom leather seat that will be put on this coming monday, dark charcoal with orange stitching! i also plan on putting a bull bar and a better sound system! let me know that yall think! The dealer here in amarillo tx said that only 2 trd pro will come thru. After purchasing the vehicle, there were many callers asking if they had or will be getting anymore in, and they said no. i guess i was lucky!

 

Making me drool... Looks so good

 

I vote for 255/85r16's to fill out that wheel well.

Nice looking trucks except for the short little bed. I guess it's got more capacity than a Ford SportTrac..... so that's something.

 

Are the badges factory blacked out ?

 

This is true, the extended mud-flaps were a fix for all the warranty claims for pitted paint at the rocker panels and rear bedsides, on 1st gens and early '05-'06 2nd gens. I agree the flaps look goofy as fugg, but function extremely well for keeping crud, rocks and oil off the side of the truck.

On my previous PreRunner, I removed my front flaps right after installing BFG 265/75/16 All Terrain KO's for about two days, in that time the new tires had kicked up 2-3 new gouges in the paint. I promptly reinstalled the flaps after that.

 

yes the badges are factory blacked out,, gonna get black nerf bars/ seat covers, maybe black with some red piping, and tonneau cover before winter

 

That red is so nice

 

I would like a TRD Pro Logo on the side thou

the truck looks awesome but the price... Im having a hard time paying that price... I would spend a little more or a used raptor

 

fucking sweet

 

jacobguerrero what nerf bars on on your truck?

 

TRD Pro should become the regular TRD Off road, at the TRD off road price.

 

sweet

 

It should include the TRD supercharger for that price. IMO

 

hey man, they are

Smittybilt T0678CC Black Powdercoat 2" Nerf Steps Side Bar, Pair

Smittybilt T0678CC Black Powdercoat 2" Nerf Steps Side Bar, Pair

At first i was hesitant on putting them on because i was afraid they would make my pro look lower. but after installing them, i was more than pleased!
