    What's up everybody hope your day is going well!

    I have a small one man show business in refrigeration and HVAC. I've been looking to put a camper shell on my SR so I can get all my tools out of my cab. In addition I've been looking at adding a roof rack for a couple ladders.

    Ive found a 2018 trd sport that has all those things and the v6 for hauling all my tools and equipment. 6ft bed too. Only 6000 miles. Still under warranty.



    Do you guys think this would be a good trade for my application?

    Well guys as much as I want to I can't justify the cost. just payed taxes and dealer fees on the SR in February. Buying the TRD Sport I'd pay about $3000 more in taxes and fees. I'm thinking of throwing that $3000 at the SR and getting a shell, roof rack. Sure would be nice to have that 6ft bed though!
    This is the SR

    Well that's no fun, being financially responsible and all. :D Seriously though, its your decision and only you know whats best for yourself. You should be fine with a shell on the SR. Would that 1 foot extra in length really be needed?
