    '17 TRD PRO
    Hello all,

    I've wanted a Small Toyota truck since forever. Having always needed a full size truck, I just never managed to swing a Tacoma. Now that's changed. Yesterday I pulled the trigger on a '17 TRD PRO! I have been looking for quite some time at used and new Tacoma's and decided after much deliberation that I would get new since the used prices are shockingly high. The Toyota purchase process is something I've complained about for a while, and this experience was the worst ever. The dealer tried several ways to jack the price, the hazard of buying a limited availability vehicle I guess.

    Welcome I'm super jelly! Didn't know when Pro was coming out when I got my TRD OR DCSB in July. I should have waited few months! Still, I am a very happy camper with my current 3rd Gen Taco.
