    Finally getting a taco, been looking at them for years, and I am going to get one of the 15s when they come out. So, I have a few questions:

    1. I know I want the TRD access cab, Manual transmission, not the pro. Any options that I should really consider?

    2. What low profile UWS tool boxes fit the bed?

    3. My wish list of things I want for my truck, is it missing anything that is a must have?
    -straps/tie downs
    -uws low profile toolbox
    -blue ridge overland molle back panel with bags
    -303 aerospace protectant
    -wet okole seat and console covers

    4. Any news on the colors offered in 2015? Wish i could get that really bright blue that used to just POP, the new blue ribbon is just to dark, and living in the south that means the truck is just going to be screaming hot, so I am thinking the blue sky metallic.

    5. in the access cab do the seats go far back enough to take a nap, I take a lot of trips and usually nap sometimes.

    Thanks everyone in advance for your input, been reading these forums for a long time drooling over everyone's taco's, I so damn excited.... just waiting on the new tacos to hit the showroom.

    I'd suggest the Offroad over the sport.

    That's all my input. :)

    There is a new orange that's going to be available on the 2015s. Lift, big tires, bumpers, tint, new wheels, sliders, speakers, supercharged, TRD Matt123 skid, LED lighting, badge removal, etc. :)
    Nice wish list and I would go to the dealership and do your research/drive one and pick the one that you like the best with all the options that fit you.

    Test drive it on the roads you want at speeds from 0-75. I am pretty sure all dealerships will take you on their route which wont give you the ability to see how it rides at high speeds corners, if anything is vibrating, steering wheel shake, etc. Make sure you test it out real good so if you do buy it there aren't any surprises.

    Inferno is only on the TRD Pro, which he doesn't want.

    Clazzio seat covers,
    Surprisingly the TRD Off Road is a decent comfortable drive ... I am quite pleased ... AC seats do recline to a fairly decent position ... I wouldn't want to spend a night in it ... the e-locker for those times you may need it ... wait a minute ... here it comes ... not quite yet ... it's on the way ... here they come ... "get a 4WD" .... no just kidding ... buy for your needs ... I put WO seat covers on a '06 base bench .... a '10 SR5 AC ... great covers ... will cost you $$$ but worth the price ... I like the seats in my '14 Off Road and may not cover them ... a different water repellant material ... best of luck.

    I'd skip the all weather floor mats and get some weathertechs. The seats go pretty far back. My friend has an access cab and his go back until they hit something (no limit was put in by Toyota). The TRD supercharger is also a nice upgrade

    My all weather mats have about 10 miles on them ... long enough to get home and install the weather tech digital fit ...

    yup looking at the off road, i have seen some nice looking sports, but the scoop is not my style. adding weathertechs to the list. and i will look into the super charger option a bit.
