    I had a 2014 OR and off roaded but never got in a position to use the rear locker. Seems dangerous to do that with such an expensive truck.

    OP, I have the TRD OR and I considered the sport. I am in Texas, but once/twice a year I head up to Northern Alberta Canada. Some areas are extremely remote with no help for a long time. I only got the TRD OR with the locker for the "just in case I need it" scenario.

    Unless you are in remote areas like that; the SPORT model will be a great selection. I have never used the locker, and I have travelled some serious muddy washed out roads absolutely fine in 4x4 mode.
