    Not why do people get TRD Sports or Offroads, but why do people just say " I have a TRD".

    Sport and Offroad are entirely different, people! :mad:

    Me. I'm OCD and care about minor, unimportant things. Then I write about them on the internet to the chagrin of other forum members. :D

    It's more... Why don't you say which logo you paid for? AKA, TRD Sport or TRD Offroad? Instead of being ambiguous? :thumbsup:

    You can only say you own a "TRD" if you pronounce it "TuRD."

    Did anyone read my post? I just wondered why people don't say what they have. To me, it's like somebody asking what kind of truck you have, and you say "Toyota". Well, is it a tundra or a tacoma or a pre-taco, they're totally different!

    Well they're not totally different they just have a different option or two. Not even similar to just saying you have a toyota.

    Honestly this had bothered me in the past too. I understand the 1st gen guys cus there was only the O/R pkg available, but the 2nd gen guys saying it kinda grinds my gears.

    I like to say I have a TRD Sport with A/C, power steering, electric windows, tilt, AM/FM, power brakes, digital compass, digital thermometer, Sport seats that are adjustable with lumbar and a sliding rear window. After that are rarely any questions as to what I drive.

    Blah, I meant more people that are like "NEW TRUCK!! I GOT THE TRD!!!"

    And they are pretty different. Do you have a hood scoop and LSD or an e-locker?
