2017 TRD Pro

Yeah I asked it how he said it, he replied yes. So I asked it another way. Not actually sure what he meant. Either way anything over sticker is not a good deal. If someone is okay with the price they are paying, more power to em but you still can't say it's a good deal.

 

I'm SO stoked about my TRD Pro! I've had it less than a week, and have mostly commuted to work and back. This evening, I grabbed my youngest daughter and grandpa and took it for the inaugural 4x4 run.

Oh...my...god. I was happy driving it to work. I was speechless driving it off road in 4H We were flying around corners, sucking up huge potholes and making washboard feel like we were floating. Those Fox shocks are no joke, son! I still have a stupid grin on my face!

Plus, it just looks so damn good:


My favorite part:

 

Not that I really love the way that shift knob looks. It's kind of blocky/shelfy. I meant driving a M/T again. Although, actually that shift nob is really comfortable. I like how you can hook your fingers over the ledge and just sort of toss it into 4th.

 

I love it! Congrats! I sound exactly like you with mine! I live on dirt roads....it just floats!!! Feels so connected to this terrain...and my truck is always dusty and dirty! Oh well, this is why I got it! Makes me smile! Enjoy your Pro!

 

Is yours manual? I have thought how fun that would be with this truck. I commute tho for work so. Exciting to read the enthusiasm! Amazing suspension

 

Yep. 6 speed. Three pedal action! No crawl control or fancy wheeling modes for me though. It's a do-it-yourselfer. I still get the locking rear diff. button though.

I grew up with manual Fords. Those sticks were about 3 feet long with 2 foot throws. This thing is compact with short throws in my book. Fun to rip through the gears. The ratios seem a little tighter than I'm used to. But overall, it's just a blast.

 

I know it's like a toy for real compared to Ford. I like that tho, no nonsense, and the way it loves the dirt and bumps etc. I remember first time I used the wipers....I thought whaaa...this is a Lego Truck! Tiny! So efficient, and it makes me happy to share Pro happiness as I never see 2017 here in AZ....yet!! Beware....I will wave Have fun!!

 

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS! My PRO finally came in last Thursday! Was able to pick it up on Friday and had the windows tinted yesterday. So in love with this truck. Toyota really does some great work with these Tacoma's, and all the little styling bits on the PRO really help it stand it. Can't wait to take it off roading for the first time

 

Which color? We need pics, too! Congrats!

 

I love the truck so far, as it fits my everyday needs. I'll be honest, my truck is more of a pavement princess then it is a off-road warrior currently. I have taken it out twice to a SVRA park close to my area in Hollister, Ca. The truck's off-road capabilities with the option to use crawl control and multi-terrain select system is quite impressive. However, in my humble opinion, I wish the TRD Pro did come with better audio like the OR's considering the price tag. I don't really care much for a sunroof, I had it my previous car and I never used it. These are all minor cons that I have for this particular model, but none the less, this was truck I've always wanted and its just a tad over 7k miles.

 

There you go! This was taken last weekend, before I got the tint installed.


I have a bunch of stuff from CBI coming in next month. I'll be sure to show you guys how it looks with a little armor on it

 

Sweet! Stoked to see what "my" truck looks like armored (I've got your M/T brother) No crawl control or MTS, but I am so happy to be 3 peddling it again after many years. The only thing that worries me is that I'm going to accidentally kick the "clutch" in next time i drive my wife's car and do an accidental brake stand!

 

I've done that before. Was taking my younger brother to swim practice at 6am one time (this was years ago when I wasn't used to waking up that early) and I was using my mom's car instead of my own as she had heated seats for the cold. We were coming up to a stop sign and my half asleep self jammed the break pedal as if it was the clutch since it was the left most pedal. Needless to say I was awake after that.

 

Heres mine, this is my second pro. My first was a 2nd gen. I absolutely love this one!

 

Great looking rig! I've always liked to cement. Originally wanted one, but they only had white available. Enjoy the ride!

 

i had a gen 2 black pro.. it was nice, but rough ride,, love this ride...

 

Thank you, I lucked out to find it. Got it off Craigslist of all places

 

Nice! My 2nd gen had a rough ride as well.

 

Saw this at my local dealer in kelso, wa. This dealer often installs OME kits on off road models new as well as the front bumper with winch and light bar. Thought you pro guys might enjoy:

 

Daaaamn, that's sick. What was the sticker price for that?
