    So basically its the T/X Pro package with a small lift and better tires. I think these special edition packages are a joke........there's nothing that really stands out as much of a difference.

    Get the Trail Teams Special Edition FJ Cruiser.........now that's a cool package.

    So did the base and SR5 trims keep the crappy "Valueer"(SP?) seat fabric? That base double cab in the above video looks like it has better quality seat fabric.

    From the article:

    The front suspension has been upgraded to include Ø60mm piston Bilstein race shocks with TRD coil springs that feature a protective zinc plated body and a one inch increase in wheel travel. The rear suspension is equipped with Ø50mm piston Bilstein race shocks with a remote reservoir to increase shock oil capacity for greater heat dissipation and damping sensitivity. The rear shocks also include a zinc plated body and a 1.5-inch increase in wheel travel.

    Does the Tacoma Entune have the fuel consumption? I was looking at one and I didn't see a "Car" button on the stereo like the one in the video.

    Can any one who has Entune on their Tacoma confirm whether or not it does?

    I have looked on the West Coast and it seems like, with the options I am looking for, the first batch of TRD Sports are the Sport Upgrade (18" wheel) version. I have a regular TRD Sport (17" wheels) coming in two or three weeks.

    I was going to get a TRD Sport Upgrade but I am just not sold on paying the extra money for the "chrome clad" wheels with summer tires when I live somewhere with snow in the winter. It's a good looking truck, just not quite what I want at this time.

    Just for reference guys, I thought i'd post my pricing as it may help you:

    My 2012 is a 4x4 trd sport in magnetic gray. It came with the following options:
    skid plate, tow package, DRLs, first aid kit, road side assistance kit, and wheel locks above and beyond the normal trd stuff.
    I paid 30,900 plus tax and title. I did opt for a 7yr 100k mile warranty which was 600 extra.

    To you folks that have already purchased your 2012 trucks, what kind of deal were your able to score? I visited 2 dealerships here in VA and MD and they want full sticker for the 2012 models. They did just come in this week and some dealers only have 1 or 2, while other dealerships have 5 or 6.

    I worked with 3 dealers, all of which would deal below invoice.
    Since you are sort of close to me, Darcars in frederick would do below invoice, fitz mall always deals no haggle below invoice and koons toyota also would price match on the 12's.
