    Probably a long shot but is there any aftermarket vendors that sell a stainless antenna? Preferably 316 grade stainless? My house is on the sand at the beach and I’ve had the antenna bases(underneath the rubber flap) on three Tacoma’s corrode beyond recognition secondary to the elements of salt air, which has caused paint damage. Buying an ‘18 next week and would rather not deal with this bullshit on a fourth Tacoma. Thanks!

    You bought your '18 yet? Notice the absence of an antenna, even on a base model?

    lol I did. Buy an 18 That is.. as for the antenna. Haven’t looked! It’s in my driveway but I’ve had a few Scotches on ice and quite frankly am too comfortable currently to go check. But I can say that I sure AF hope your attached photo is indicative of my truck. I’d rather one not be present. Fuck those antennas!
