    Mine is carpeted but I have Husky floor liners front and rear so it may as well be rubber.

    I've been surprised by people's reaction when they ask me about my truck. Many are excited by a basic truck. It reminds them of the earlier models they had in high school or college. I just don't need(or want) a bunch of options on a truck I'll never use and will add the ones i want at <70% of what they would have cost from the dealer.

    Toyota Canada didn't sell a Pro up here, so I built a better one.

    Thats exactly my reaction to this truck. Before 2008 Tacoma my newest vehicle was a completely restored 70 GMC 3/4 T 2wd. I just dont get all the gadgets today, Im over 50 so I guess I wouldnt get it. I just need to get the job done which is why my 08 Tacoma was a great rig.

    You can always add someone's unwanted TRDOR parts to an SRUP.

    I sure did, they are the factory TRDOR wheels. I did not change the color of them.

    Part of my attraction to this model year and the Utility package was the blank slate they offered. Yours looks really nice I like the rims.

    I cant speak for this truck but mine did come as a 4x4. I do wish it was the color of this truck though.

    Just no mudflaps from the dealer? Or keyless huh? That would give me some oil to turn the screws.

    Anybody looked into swapping in a rear sliding window? That's all I'd really want and miss.

    Sadly, no keyless, and it looks like aftermarket is the best option.
    Also, there is not a key slot on the passenger side door.

    I've heard that it's a doable swap, but because of the expense most people only do it when they have an insurance check for an "unfortunate" shift of cargo in the bed, causing something to come kool-aid-manning through that window.
