Been lurking the forum for a while, had a few posts this past December shortly after I purchased my truck. They were about trouble I was having with a tailgate panel I had purchased.

Anyhow, thought I'd contribute a bit more, seems like a great forum! I have a 2021, V6, two wheel drive SR5 that I picked up last December. It's pretty much bone stock except for some mostly aesthetic mods I've done to it. De-badged, installed side steps, a Leer HF650 folding tonneau cover, and recently put some new wheels/tires on it. I went a bit bigger/wider than stock (18" x 8.5") with the wheels and all season highway tires. Very happy with the outcome, much more traction on the street! Next mod I'm thinking of is to install a rear sway bar as an addition improvement to on road handling.

Lots of cool threads with all of you that have 4x4's and your mods. Figured I'd share what I'm doing on the opposite end of the spectrum with a 2 wheel drive street truck!

 

Welcome to TW

 

welcome. Nice looking truck!

 

Welcome to TW

 

Welcome , love white taco's

 

Sometimes I wish I had 2wd, especially when I have a leaky transfer case.
Less is better if you don't need it.

 

Welcome

 

You seem to be missing the mandatory faux Pro Grill and bed mat. Just messing with you from one white SR5 2WD owner to another. Nice looking truck

 

Welcome!

 

I was originally looking to get and test drove a TRD Off Road, but the more I thought about it, I realized I didn't need it. I live in California so snow isn't an issue and the most extreme "off road" the truck will see is maybe and occasional dirt/gravel compacted fire road. Cheaper insurance and maintenance costs don't hurt either.

My only regret is that I kind of wish that I held out for a long bed. They were pretty much impossible find in my area (in this configuration) at the time I purchased, but it wasn't a deal breaker.

 

I'm fine with the stock grill and the rubber "Tacoma" bed mat is hidden underneath the tonneau cover, lol.

 

The Off Road also comes in 2 Wheel Drive configuration, not sure if that's what you were checking out or not.

 

Welcome. That's a purty truck you got there.

 

That's interesting, I didn't know that. Is the 2 wheel drive version of the "Off Road" that common? Due to the name, I assumed they were all 4x4. Guess I didn't pay close attention to the vehicle builder on the Toyota website.

 

They are common in PHX

DCLB for life !

 

I would think its not a very common trim level overall but in warm climates you would see a few here and there.
