    2023 Trail edition
    Hey everyone, joined a couple weeks ago but haven’t had a moment to make a post. I’m in Nova Scotia, Canada. Ordered a TRD off-road premium in lunar Rock a few months ago from a near by dealer was originally told 6-8 months wait. On my search after placing a factory order I had met a couple other individuals who had been waiting over a year for the same package from other near by dealers without the orders ever being picked up by Toyota.

    I got a bit nervous I may not find a 3rd Gen and jumped shipped and ended up finding a 23 Trail Edition in Lunar Rock coming in in just a few weeks so I’ve got it secured and can’t wait. Here in NS these trucks are almost impossible to come by it seems. Not my first Toyota but my first Tacoma. I’ve wanted one for many years but financially it just didn’t make sense. Really, it still doesn’t make sense but get busy living or get busy dieing as they say!

    Once my truck arrives I’ll be a bit more active in the forums but for now I wait and read the banter.

    Welcome! Don’t be offended when you ask an honest question and some ass responds with “manual,” its a right of passage :thumbsup:

    The Trail Editions are rad. I went back and forth when I got mine. Happy trails.

    Welcome to TW. Congratulations and enjoy. Trail edition is an awesome choice. They continue to be in short supply on the west coast as well.

    Thanks, I went back and forth back and forth between canceling my OR order and going with the TE or not. In the end I stand by my decision. Cheers and thanks for the welcome.

    Welcome to TW Also a newer guy from Saint John NB area. Yea tacos are in short supply for sure. Had our Rav in for service last week and dealer just got six new tacos in. Sales guy said the four double cabs were sold and the two access cabs would be gone this week. No other tacos on the lot.

    Yeah, seems like any allocations that dealers have near me are almost always pre sold.
