    Just brought it home last night. 2018 Tacoma TRD Sport. I have been admiring the Tacoma's for years. Kids are grown and have moved out and now I can drive what "I" want. Not sure what mods I will do but today those tacky TRD stickers come off. Seems pretty simple, but I'm still a little scared of the goo gone.

    Welcome!
    hair dryer, low-med heat.
    Don't keep it on one spot. Catch an edge and work it.
    It should come off fairly quick.

    Welcome to TW! Sticker removal is pretty easy and being new should get most of the adhesive off with the sticker.

    Just walked outside this morning. Truck was sitting in the sun. It’s scary how easy they peeled off. Goo gone and I’m done.

    You may want to wash it to get the Goo Gone off.

    Thanks for all the welcome comments. I do have a question. Where do you all buy your accessories? Do you buy from Toyota? What is the best place to get sill covers, coin holders, all the little dumb stuff I'm looking at because it's new! Also, I really wanted leather seats. I just couldn't justify spending another 4K for the limited, just for the leather. Although I did like the moor roof. I see Katzkin is all over the web. Anyone have any knowledge of their product?

    I got the TRD Sport with the technology package. Out the door was $32584. I thought it was a good deal!

    Thanks,
    Kim

    Dig through the third gen marketplace. There are many vendors on TW and it's a good place to get ideas of what you want. Happy shopping!
