    I honestly really like it, wheels and all... Just wish an improved engine was under the hood.

    I love the interior, but the new front end dosent do it for me. I want that black A/C control now. Would finish my interior off :D

    i personally like how "they" cut off half of the turn signal / headlight lens and called it an update :D

    it's the same truck i'm driving around in mechanically so it does not matter to me one bit. the only thing thats gonna pry my fingers off of my 2010 is when toyota gets off of their ass and engineers a diesel for the states then i will trade up. plastic chrome wheels ain't doing it for me either though i'm not sure who thought that one was a good idea:confused:

    Dont like at all. Front grill looks bad and lower valance. Scoop is gay (not really even a scoop). And ot a fan of the lights. Pretty much the whole front end is fu**ed. The interior has some features that are nice though. Ill stick with my 2011. I love it

    The squared lines on the new front ends look out of place with the rest of lines on the truck remaining more rounded.

    Looks a little goofy, if you ask me. Kind of like a photo shop job.

    Go look at these trucks in person, the front end looks much better than the 2nd gen. I see all the negative comments are from the guys who bought the 2011 lol but I would wait till they put a new engine.

    I will do without the wheels. The updates to the front end are long over due. The front end is PERFECT now. I always thought the rounded headlights from the 2005-11 looked slightly out of place. The angles on the wheel flares bring the angles on the new front end together just fine. Love what toyota did to the interior as well. I think the upgraded wheels are unnecessary. I am also NOT sold on entune for the price.

    You do have to see the truck in person. photos dont catch the angle of the bumpers right on the corner, which I think alot of people complain about. I just wish toyota would update to the dual vvti engine.

    I like the new look. But if I just dropped ton of $$ on a 2011, I would hate it too.
