2019 TRD Pro’s collecting dust at dealerships

Yup. We buy the $35-40,000 OR and dump another 20 in mods because we're broke boys.

 

you should just start with an SR or SR5 so you don’t waste money on the upgrades that come with the OR..... Just throwing that out there. Seems like the same logic I have seen in this thread from OR owners towards pros.

People should just buy the truck they like and that suites them. For me, it was a pro which I plan to keep it bone stock so that’s why it was the best choice for me. Still don’t understand the pro hate. super weird TW phenomenon.

 

As long as you are happy. Your money do as you wish.

 

No hate for the Pro here at all, I actually really love the way it looks. Hell, I've even styled my truck fairly close to what a Pro looks like. But someone saying people without Pros didn't get them because they cannot afford it is ridiculous. This could be the reason Pro owners catch so much flack.

 

I agree wholeheartedly.

 

Sometimes it is I think. Then there’s the reverse discrimination from the non-pro guys. Idiots are idiots regardless of what they drive...

 

I agree man. I'm not blind and I definitely see it, its this whole us vs them bs. You said it best, idiots will be idiots.

 

Good catch.

 

Another person who couldn’t afford a pro. I think they should have a separate section for OR or less owners.

 

Right lol. Bro owners unite and finance those upgrades that Toyota throws on rather that choose your mods

 

I mean, I do have to panhandle just to be able to make my payment every month. I really have to find a better corner.

 

You trolling or are you just stupid?

 

He isn’t either. He just lacks the finances to afford a pro.

 

It's really not about affordability. I paid cash for my OR and then proceeded to throw another $15k and counting in mods.... that I chose. The thing isn't even my driver it's my Offroad toy that I take out and play with when the mood suits me. Otherwise I'm balling my Tundra

 

Nope just in and out as do have a life outside of TW

 

Well then you answered your own debate as to why people would buy a pro. I don’t want to spend $15,000 on more shit for a off-road/dd.


Choosing can be fine, but some of you mother fuckers think you are vehicle engineers. 90% of the information on this forum is bullshit, and your “mods” are about the same. I’m financing like $30 more than my OR on a pro. After I was in the middle of building up a off-road with “custom mods.” Found out I was a shitty car guy. Bought pro, which I can still “mod” but I’ll leave the
suspension in. I’m not doing the rubicon. Medium to border line difficult Jeep trails is all I do, with the intent on camping/hunting which take me where it takes me. Sometimes I pre-run the backroad to big bear 2n14. Works for me.

 

I dont disagree with you that we'll see another recession in the next 12-months. But I disagree with you that it's super obvious at this point in time.

 

I'm sure the SR and SR5 threads are making fun of the OR and that's ok. Doesn't hurt my feeling

 

The 2020s seem worth waiting for (Carplay/AndroidAuto + Seat controls), and a lot of people were likely waiting on the Jeep Gladiator to begin with. Combine that with paying above MSRP for a Pro, vs under MSRP for an OR, and you're left with a lot of 2019 Pros on the lot.

 

my only regret in life is not having enough money to buy one of those dusty pros.
