"Leaked" MY2018 Changes

Yea I'm interested in seeing how much the price will go up. Still saving my pennies and hopefully can absorb the increase

 

I like the cement color and all, but IMO it's not that special. It's probably my 5th or 6th choice in color for these trucks.

 

I'm not a fan of any bright colors. No res, no inferno, no blue.... gimmie black, gray, silver or heck even white before any of those others. But that's just me, and just this time around. I change every vehicle purchase ha

 

Well that sucks for the people that bought the Pro mostly to get cement. Could have gotten that plus leather and a moonroof if you waited.

This isn't the 1st time a Pro only color trickled down to other trims in later years. Inferno was Pro only in 2015 and I bought an off road Inferno 2 months ago.

So if you really want the Calvary blue you might want to think about waiting a year.

 

You! Get out of here! We don't allow that kind of logic in here!

 

I'd like to be a fly on the wall when they make the decisions that the an AC TRD shouldn't get the same features a DC TRD has. Outside of the moonroof, I just don't get it.

Same with when they decided the AC's shouldn't get a bed light, for whatever reason.

 

Way back in the day, that Cavalry colour was called "powder blue" because is was the same colour as the early laundry detergents (laundry powder). Powder Power! Does that work?

 

So no more premium with JBL? Seems a step backwards. Glad I got mine when I did.

 

But does it come with a cab spoiler?

 

I hear the Access Cab doesn't get one, but all the other trims do

 

Folks have a hard time translating these things. JBL is included in the TRD premium packages. Manual trans doesn't get it still.

OA

Edit: access cabs still don't get JBL either.

 

If you want to drive a manual toyota assumes you're obviously a savage who doesnt give a shit about audio quality. Besides you're just going to hear the clutch pedal squeaking and rear diff howling anyhow.

 

lol I love how manufactures associate manuals with the poverty spec and wonder why no one buys them.

I don't want to jinx anything but my clutch doesn't squeak and my roof rack drowns out the diff howl.

OA

 

Well, looks like I will be buying my '16 out when my lease is up. I love the nav interface on my AC 6MT.

 

Go to Master Price list. The tacos are now $450 more expensive than the 2017. This is across all models.

Smurf Blue might be an option too.........

 

OR... they know that manual trans drivers want more control, and expect them to upgrade it anyways. LOL!

 

Cavalry Blue on a new truck seems an odd (and arguably poor) decision. Moreover, is someone spending that much coin on a Pro going to want such a quirky colour. The FJ Cruiser was already somewhat "different" so seemed more fitting. But a Tacoma???

 

Wait till you see it before you make a judgement. Quicksand and inferno seemed like bad choices too but they look pretty good.

 

A better black is smart. Jet black looks great on detailed porsches. On a pickup truck thats seen trails not so much
