    Not mentioning the fact that the TRD sport is setup for street.
    The offroad maybe better on the trail, but where I drive the sport
    corners flatter than the off road and will go thru curves faster and out handle the offroad TRD on the road!
    Dont buy trucks to offroad more 1 percent of the time so the TRD Sport makes sense!

    Agreed... if the truck needs to look like a 'sport car' with color matched things and a hood scoop.. and you want that, great! Toyota sells a lot of Sport Trucks!

    Just as long as the buyer is informed about what the Off Road has... Too often, I hear a Sport owner said that when they asked what the difference was he got this answer: "The Off Road just has a plain hood and a chrome bumper..." Maybe a rear locker is mentioned, but Active Traction Control and the Hydraulic Brake Booster is not.

    I want a truck to look more like a truck and not have a fake anything on it. Toyota should at least have made a hood scoop that actually scoops air into the engine!

    Throw a Hellwig swaybar on and it does even better. And it still has good ground clearance for a little offroading. Love my truck!
