    Just traded in my old supercharged T-100 4x4 with all its URD/TRD Mods for a 2017 TRD Sport 4x4 Access cab in the blue color. It serms a very sweet piece - despite reviews downing its auto trans performance. I really love it and find if I press the ECT switch it does just fine.

    My T-100 had the 5VZFE engine - with SS TRD HEADERS (ceramic dipped) along with a CAI, valve body mod, URD FUEL KIT, 2.2" pulley, re-coated rotors on the TRD BLOWER, trans cooler, and many other goodies to boot. It had everything from tip to stern replaced to be as new! Believe me, she still looked great. I had just put a new engine (rebuilt by Northwest Yota) 20 k miles ago. It had a new torque converter, rebuilt A340f trans, a new flex plate - ALL still under warranty. It was a gorgeous Toyota RED too.

    But.....I wanted something new. AND THOSE FLEX PLATES CRACKED EVERY 2 years!

    So this 17 Taco is my new baby.

    Welcome us to your community please, we come humbly and hope to fit in! IMG_2746.jpg
