    Why did you swap the Corolla wheels over on to the Taco?





    Nice ride.

    Nothing wrong with stock height my friend. Still more capable than most vehicles on the road. :thumbsup:

    Stickers and not enough wax
    I was just at the bed stickers. In the new ones they specifically put 4x4 in the sport logo. I guess they didn't do that on the 2014. Subtle things. My bad - glad your truck is what you want/need.

    You're close - I am very sad about my truck's anal leakage. Waiting for the doc to fix it. This 4Runner is OK, but I need my 6" bed back.

    My new job requires some rough driving and harsh winter driving. 4x4 was key.

    No worries ! I was joking anyways. It is a weird bed sticker. It doesn't seem to match any other year models at all

    Up until 2016 (3rd gens) the factory TRD bedside decals didn't make any mention of 4x4..Prerunners and 4x4s had the same TRD stickers. The '4x4' was put on the mudflaps, which is what I assume you have on yours.

    Nice looking truck!

    honestly, you probably should have just lifted the Carolla :)

    really though, if you value money at all turn and run right now. in two years your new truck will look completely different and you will love it more that you thought you could but you will be broke. it's like a yin/yang type of thing.

    welcome!

    As true as that is. It wasn't really a choice. For my new job I'll be going into some rough places and deep snow my Corolla could never do.
