The SR thread, let's see them!

Please do! I'm starting to like the basic bare bones SR's as more people mod them to their liking. Start a Build thread with your pics.

 

My first Tacoma was a SR, I wasn't on this forum, I didn't know much about the different trim levels.

That truck was one of the best vehicles I ever owned. One day someone hit me in a parking lot. I just got out, walked up front, and kicked that plastic non-painted bumped back into place. BOOM.

I don't plan on doing much mods to mine, so I bought it built. If I was going to build it myself, SR is the way to do it.

 

My SR build so far

 

Are those Cooper S/T Max? Aren't they a bit heavy at 55lbs for the 2.7L?

 

lol same

 

Yeah they weigh about 50lbs but the trucks pulls them pretty good. I did loose a couple mpg with them

 

I love them. Have them on my TRD Sport. Maybe your wheels are lighter than the steelies?

 

If I remember right all 4 wheels weigh about 15lbs less then the steelies

 

Damn! Really? The is a tremendous savings right there. I think steelies are 32lbs a piece.

 

If I'm not mistaking the ones on my truck weigh 28 pounds

 

I'm probably wrong. For some reason I thought the steel wheels on the SR weighed in at 33lbs.

Your truck looks great!

 

Thanks a lot. Your TRD looks great also

 

I'm going to sell it in 2018 and go back to the 4 banger.

I want a black one.

 

29.1

 

Perfect!

 

I trade you mine. I have title in hand.

I had a BBP access cab V6 like yours on order back in October of 2015 and after a month I called the dealer to find out the progress on my truck. He said he did not know. I told him well then just cancel my order I have found a black princess across the Indiana state line. I bought her new on 9 NOV 2015. She has 4,326 miles now. Never revved above 3500 rpm. I cringe when she hits 3000 rpm during a hill climb and immediately turn the cruise control off. She is a nice street princess that has never seen a gravel road.

 

Just did the intermittent wiper install for my first mod. Looking to have the windows tinted next.

 

Going back to SR?

Care to explain?

 

Not caring about paint wear/tear on the front-end, because it's just black plastic, is another big plus

 

Not to mention very unique. I've only seen one other 3rd gen utility in my town. A white forestry service truck with a lightbar.
