    Hello thanks for reading my message, I just bought a 2019 Tacoma 4x4, has all the features I’ve ever had on a Toyota pickup this is my third Tacoma 4x4, I bought my first one in 2001, my second one in 2015, both had mud flaps with 4x4 embossed on each one (except the two front ones) anyway now I have a 2019 Tacoma with all the bells and whistles, except the most basic mud flaps that protects the body of the pickup from loose debris on the highway and streets. Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad I bought the Tacoma and Toyota has a lot more safety features than ever before (I always believed mud flaps were a safety feature) Thanks for reading.

    That's considered an option now, not a standard item.

    We also know that different regions of the country have different options available as well.

    Are there better mudflap options on the market? The OEM ones are pretty flimsy.
