    Hello everyone, this is my first post. I have feel in love with the 3rd gen tacomas look and plan on purchasing one later this year. I used to own a FJ Cruiser and love taking it camping with the family and a few off road adventures. I had a blast modifying my FJ during the time i owned it. I had to get rid of it due to financial reasons and a growing family (not so easy to put a baby seat in and out of a lifted FJ). Anyhow... i am currently looking at Cement TRD Pros. I would love to have some upgrades right off the lot and like a lot of the features it has. My question to you guys is, should i got with a TRD Pro or a TRD Offroad and spend the extra cash on mods myself??? Any thoughts or comments are greatly appreciated!

    If you are going to modify the suspension of the Pro, go with the offroad. A lot of the cost of the Pro is in the "upgraded" suspension.

    That's a pile 'o bucks.



    You don't have to buy a Pro to get cement in 2018. It's an everyman color now.

    Good luck!

    Thanks for the advice. I'll postpone my decision until at least Feb. 8th. Looking forward to spending more time on these forms and learning as much as I can. Hopefully I can join some off roading trips in the SoCal area.
