SR5 vs TRD Sport

I know all models have projector beam head lamps, but the day time running lights being LED are only on the TRD and Limited I believe. Why don't you want the LED's?

 

You're right, just the front is color matched. Rear is chrome.

 

Why don't you want the LED's?

Every car and truck have them these days Monkey see Monkey do.

I have them on my car and they look cool, but a truck is a truck. Just my opinion.

 

Plus they looks amazing.

 

That's understandable. I think they look pretty good. I haven't decided on whether to get an off road model or build up an SR but the LED's alone wouldn't sway me either way.

 

They look amazing on my car, not a truck

 

Nighttime driving quality looks amazing or they just look cool?

 

That is the biggest downfall of the Sr5.

I would easily opt for an Sr5 if it came with the Push Button Start. I love that option, and it will likely be a deciding factor when I buy a 3rd gen in the future.

 

Another major downfall of the Sr5

 

Can one order a TRD manual or automatic with no extra packages ? I dont need dual climate control nor heated seats and definitely not the moonroof. I like the looks of the Trd sport 4x4 and the fact that i can have it in manual if I like it. So that would be 32100 for the manual 4x4 + destination + tax and fees

 

Yes, of course.

 

One thing I don't understand is the nav ? Is the nav only going to work with your phone ? Is that included with the Entune ? Or is it a premium package. ?

Sweet news

 

Which trim are you planing to get @TRDPro4x4?

 

I'm leaning towards TRDORSBMTMGM, but on the fence about whether to get the premium and tech package or not. I like all of the added features, but don't really need any of them. I would rather have the colored key rear bumpers as opposed to the chrome that come with the base OR though.

 

It would be almost the same price as the sport MT without the packages right .?

 

The TRD sport and Off road are the exact same price for all trims and packages.
The only difference is:

TRD OR gets
rear locking differential
A-Trac for manual trans (crawl control and multi-terrain select on automatic trans)
no color on over fenders (gray plastic)
no color on front bumper (gray plastic)
rear bumper is chrome (on base model) if you get the prem/tech package it gets color keyed rear bumpers
16" wheels
off road tuned suspension

TRD Sport
no rear locker
no a-trac
colored fenders
colored front bumper
colored rear bumper
17" sport wheels
sport tuned suspension

I almost forgot, can't forget the HOOD SCOOP!

 

Yeah I see the difference. Only thing I wish I got on that Trd sport is the atrac
