    Turbos are a great upgrade!! Trying to make a clone not cool. Not enough to get "butt hurt". Incognito is better than faking the funk.:cool:

    Why do pickups (all brands) need stickers on the sides of the beds to begin with? Every manufacture has some if not most models with bed stickers. What's the point? Who came up with this tacky shit? If a landcruiser or 4runner doesn't have stickers why would a pickup need them? Oh, that's right, so many pick up owners are juvenile douche bags and like that sort of stuff.

    I say take them off. My teen grandson and his friends call them TURDS and laugh at the sticker. Lots of people where I work say the same thing, even if they like Tacomas. I got a Limited so I didn't have to make the choice. But I wouldn't keep them. I am not an off road driver either.

    I removed them as soon as I got home with the truck that night! Used wife's hairdryer to loosen them up, and they peeled right off. I then took goof off and a rag to remove any gummy residue left.

    I debadged it, had to work a whole bunch and put on a K&N in time to deploy. Now my wife controls the money and hopefully I have enough when I get back to get her washed. Soooo... mods are in progress?
    I read all of these posts and laughed an awful lot. I am, however, trying to make the same decision. I am debadged... all but the TRD OR sticker. I don't think I will know what I want to until I do it.

    Now, WRT some of the other comments, I laughed for a completely different reason. In fact, I am an OR driver, with a TRD OR, and I think that I will buy about 500 of these TRD OR stickers and go around handing them to SR5 or base model or even sport drivers just because I now know that it irritates someone. No offense, but if you care about someone's vehicle's appearance, you are worried about the wrong things. I have a 69 buick skylark with a 455 and a hurst slapper. It was originally a 350 car, but it sure as hell says GSX on the side of it now. I couldn't AFFORD it outright, so I built it over a few years. If some kid wants to be cool and pretend he has an offroad... well... WTF would I care?
