This is the 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport.

But why does it have a 2017 grille?

Because a 2017 truck doesn’t make for a relevant article in 2018 and they didn’t care to check if they had their facts right.

 

This guy believes the sport is the more off-road focused version of the Tacoma... I don’t think he’s even aware it’s a 16-17 model year

 

I have a 2017 quicksand trd sport 4x4 only difference from that truck in the article is mines double cab short box and an auto. My third brake light does not match the one in the article. mines clear, Not red. Weird

 

I think this is a 16 taco. I believe all 17 TRD models came with a power rear window, the 16s did not

 

“Our test truck had a nice-shifting six-speed manual, but for the most towing and fuel economy you'll have to pick the manual.“

Haha come on

 

Very impressive and that creative writing.

 

Fake news for real

 

Nope, i have a '17 Sport with a manual rear window.

 

I believe you also had to have a double cab to get the power rear window on a '17.

Heck, us access cab guys can easily reach back and open the thing lol.

 

Ummmm.. did any of you notice the TRD shift knob lol?

 

That could be true. And yea I would feel no need for a power slider, I just reach back an open it when I feel the need. In a double cab it’d definitely be nice.

 

I think you might be the only one. Perhaps knobs are your thing?

 

Mine weighs about 1 pound
