    I named her “Luna”. Driving home from work in my 2020 Jetta, I decided to stop by the dealership just to look around… Well it’s history from here. Going from 44mph to less than 20 Stings a little bit however, I got my dream truck so I gotta suck it up. 2022 Trail Edition SR5 4X4 Lunar Rock

    Love the grill!

    It has silver letters...which I presumed the OEM comes with black letters.

    Enjoy your truck and Congrats!

    Welcome OP! If you're looking to spend money this is a good place to be.

    Trail edition comes with bronze wheels and bronze grille letters. Normal Pro grille has silver letters.

    I went from a Jetta TDI to my Tacoma, too. Yes, the MPG hit is a tough one. But at least with the Toyota you never live in fear of yet another dash light coming on and wondering if you're going to get home...

    I did really well actually. I didn’t owe much on my 2020 Jetta. Let’s just say I had money to put towards the Taco at the end of it!
