    Honest mistake.

    Four Wheeler's photogs do the same thing.

    Select an angle for the shot that does not show the trees at a 45 degree angle :D

    Did the truck come with the black bumper?? The single cabs are very rare where I live, only 1 other besides mine, I certainly get lots of looks when going just because of that!! Kinda makes it just that more special I guess, lol Nice truck by the way, not much sand were I'm from, kinda jelous

    Wonder if any of you single cab folks have had luck with subwoofer installs..I'm running 12's right now and the enclosures I have are hitting the bench seat release levers.

    If you are using them, please post dimensions of your enclosures..help a brother out!

    Base models have black bumper and grille.
    SR5 moves to chrome for the rear bumper and grille... not sure what trim level introduces the body-colored front bumper and moves the rear to body colored.

    TRD Sport adds body colored grille (and skewp).

    Single cabs stopped the SR5 package for the model year 2011

    -2011 Source Book-
    "SR5 Package (SE) is deleted for Regular Cab 4x4
    models (7503 & 7504)" (7503 is the model code for the 4x4 Single Cab and 7503 is the model code for 4x2 Single Cab)

    and I went back as far as 2008 (as far as my source books go) and there was never a TRD package available for the Single Cabs. I've seen some, so I thought they were available, but maybe those people just bought the stickers. I am only going by what my Toyota training website provides me. I wasn't w/ Toyota back then. (started in 2010)

    well i have a 2.5" lift on a RC 2wd 5lug 5spd 4.10s with light aluminum wheels. but it will be the same as a stock height 6lug. key for speed with the 4cyl is to keep the truck, and especially rotating masses, as light as possible.

    I wouldn't say "fast" but I'm happy with my stock 2.7..I drive over 300 miles a week so keeping fuel in the tank is more my need than speed. Down the road I wouldn't mind waking it up a bit..what would people say is a good way to get a little extra HP?
