    I'm always amused when I see 4 bangers used and for sale down here in San Diego with TRD stickers on them. I'm gonna ask the sales person next time about the special TRD features of those trucks

    I'd buy it, then I can say I bought both a TRD Sport and a TRD Off Road cause I couldn't make up my mind.

    great .. now the stickers are out of synch on the manufacturing line and we are gonna see 500 of these. Wasn't there a stop sell on Sports coming out of Baja briefly? maybe this was the problem!

    Looks good to me. :thumbsup:
    Is it bad if I had to read everyone's replies to figure out what was wrong?
