    I have a silly question.
    I just bought a 2014 Tacoma v6 4wd.
    Freaking love it.
    It doesn't say trd on it.
    But I have the scoop and matching color scheme bumpers grill etc.
    How can I tell if it's a trd. And if it's not a trd. Are they still as bad ass offroading?

    The scoop is a dead give away it's a sport model. The truck is just fine for off roading and fun. Get out there and get it dirty.:thumbsup:

    Thanks guys. My cousins taco saved our life's coming down a mountain. I had to get one when I finally traded my Silverado in.
    She's been so much fun in the flooding here in North Texas .

    Welcome!

    One thing that hasn’t been mentioned yet, if you are ever unsure whether it is a TRD, check the bed. On the right side, it should have an outlet like this:

    ACA581F4-C330-4427-8783-C6F13DBF537F.jpg

    Only the TRD packages have it. The hood, bumpers, and mirrors can be added pretty easily, but i highly doubt anyone would add the outlet.
