    So, I have this VIN from a dealer "5TFCZ5AN9GX024230"...I poked around but nothing tells me if this truck is a TRD, no stickers. The Toyota dealer tells me it is. Thanks in advance

    Toyota makes it kind of confusing. They present the OD and Sport as if they are "models" in advertising, but in their hierarchy they aren't "models" they are add-on packages to an SR5.

    In other words, all TRD Tacomas are SR5s, but all SR5s aren't TRDs
