Remington Edition?

First post. I have been lurking since considering to purchase a 2016. I saw this at the dealer and thought "thats different" I should share. Check out the tailpipe!

 

Take my money now

 

I'd rather just have the wheels and other stuff, then let them keep the graphics

 

Check out that spacer up front......yuk

 

"Remington Steele"

 

What wheels are those?

 

Needs some of these inside the 'target'. http://www.buggiesunlimited.com/pro...8AC9sRzo9vszkqMfwqEcH3nEM2uWPHY7rARoCUM3w_wcB

My buddy bought a chevy with a remington pkg a few years ago, that thing was LOADED! It has the nicest leather seats id ever seen , locked gun safes in the bed [think two drawer slides in bottom of box and two cubbies toward cab] in the dash all of the gauge pin centers were shotgun shell bottoms, 12ga for big ones 410 for littleones . I think it was an 07 diesel 2500, it was a leftover when they changed the body to the big boxxy , so he got a deal, i think they gave him the truck without the cost of extra pkg just to get old body off the lot. That truck is his baby! He wont drive it in winter, always detailed, tons of poweradders for the diesel, another buddy is diesel tech out of albany. The long and short of it is if they went all out like his that thing is sweet!

 

These are a dealer package and not a special edition build from Toyota correct?

 

Basically dealer slaps on some stickers wheels and tires and spacer lift and charges an extra $5k.

 

I wouldn't want anything with the Remington name on it anymore their current production firearms are junk and they are ruining other brands such as Marlin.

 

If Remington paid me monthly to advertise for them the decals could stay on the truck. If not, take them off before I drove it off the lot.

 

Yea, I don't understand dealer "packages". They don't even have the right to use someone else's logo without the company's consent. If we put a few accessories on a vehicle we just simply add an addendum with the parts and prices. We don't make it "special edition". I like when the factory does certain packages like ford used to do the Harley edition. And Gm has done a few. But not digging these southern dealers with their "Texas" edition and "Remington" editions. Must be a thing down there. Whatever it takes to sell them I guess. But the tacomas are selling themselves so I don't understand that either lol

 

Lmao

 

Pretty sure Remington has no issue with advertising on a Tacoma...But it looks Awful.

Maybe it's me but a truck built to LOOK like it spends most of it's time in the wild is nicer than a gleaming beauty built to look like it spends it's time in the wild but rarely sees a rainy day..

Reminds me of this back in the day which IMO looks much better than the thin Tupperware fender covers.

 

Those rear wheels disc?

 

Does it matter?

 

Kinda looked like it

 

Wheels are cool. They can keep everything else.
