    I am not one of those me too "hey look at my truck" types. It looks like every other stock Tacoma PreRunner Rugged Trail Edition. Google it and you will see 100's of em. Nothing special to be proud of. Unpainted fender flares. boring stuff.

    No hood scoop or anything fun like that.....:D
    Now I like looking at those who actually did something to their trucks and have commented on them. But a 3" "me too" lift on an otherwise stock truck is nothing special.

    Probably chains. They kind of suck when they whip you in the ass though, but theyre so much cheaper than a locker so it has much better traction

    Seems that the Tahoe fire department just took delivery of two new 4x4s... how silly of them

    Wtf! With the tax payers money they added 4x4?? What a waste! They could easily just wait for the streets to be plowed and then go put out fires. Jesus Christ...people these days.

    Yes it does. I like the TRD package, was silver, clean and dealer serviced, and I did not want painted fender flares and it had 24K miles and was $20K OTD and paid off. Did not take a whole lot of decision making or deep thinking. Passed on a white Sport 4x4 for $2000 more with 32K miles on the same lot and a black 08 Sport 2WD at another that was certified and had been in an accident.

    So yeah you can diss the Rugged Trail but like you and hopefully many others I got exactly what I wanted and did not have to buy new. I really don;t care what people think of my choice. I don;t seek approval or atta boys. I live from inside out.
