    Edit: just saw the no questions at the top of the page, so I will post in the other forums like I was. Sorry about that and thanks for the welcome.


    Just bought a 2010 Tacoma Pre-Runner with 25,000 miles on it. I am new to the Toyota world and I am still trying to figure out exactly what I have.

    It has...

    Pre-Runner (2 wheel)
    V6
    front skid plate
    6 lug
    Hitch with both coolers and 7 plug
    Sticker on the sides say TRD Pre-Runner. (Is this the right decal?)

    What exactly do I call this thing. Is there just one kind of Pre-Runner or do they make a sport model?

    What other packages came with the Pre-Runner?

    Is this a TRD?

    Again I am just learning all this so go easy. Thanks all

    You have a four year old MGM Tacoma that looks and probably drives like brand new!
    Nice find!

    looks like its a trd offroad prerunner.

    The sticker says Pre-Runner like I have but also says TRD. I guess if its not right I should remove them.
    So its just a Pre-Runner with the tow package

    It allows you to turn off the side airbags if you roll the truck more then something like 30 degrees! Extreme angles!! :)

    One last question over here in new member. I want to take these decals off and that weird looking pin stripe. Whats the best way to get both off? I am going to do the pin striping first. Whats the best way without pulling clear coat?
