    ok i have searched but i cant find what i am looking for .. i just bought my truck this past weekend and it has been de badged and all the stickers have been removed. i have done some research and i am leaning to something but wanted to ask the pros .... my truck has the sliver blitz shocks and 110v oulet in the back , cloth seats , compass, pwr windows and locks but no rear locker would this make it a trd sport like i think it is ?

    Does it have 17" wheels, hood skewp, body colored grille, mirrors, door handles and rear bumper? If so it would appear that yours is TRD Sport. Of course all of those could have been painted or swapped at some point by the original owner too.

    I believe you can call Toyota somehow and have them run the VIN. I did that on a truck I was thinking about buying. I think I found the number on here somewhere.

    Sounds like a TRD Sport with aftermarket wheels and bumpers. Post a picture if you can.

    Edit: Nevermind, I was too slow to type. :turtleride:
