What's the chatter on the 2018's?

Yeah, I can’t. I think a lot of people don’t have as much debt as me.

 

I’m just doing the Toytec Boss with AAL for a little height. I traded my un-modified 17’ sport in for this one and prior to that, I had an 06’ 4Runner that I had OME, total chaos uppers, diff drop kit and a bunch of other stuff that I never used off-road. I primarily go off road to get my dirt bike to the trails and don’t need anything too extreme.

I’ve noticed that the motor in this 18’ feels more responsive, manual shifts smoother and the suspension rides more like a truck. My wife drove it today and she noticed the same observations as me. The crazy part is that both my 17’ and now 18’ came from San Antonio, so not sure what the issue is.

 

Well looks like i cannot wait anymore for a 18 cement trd offroad with tech and premium. Going to get a 17 super white trd offroad with tech and premium. Loaded with all the dealer crap predator steps, tonnaeu, black out package, etc. could care less for those but walking out after ttl is 40k. I dont think i can beat that.. saving myself 5 maybe 6k just staying with a 17 and not waiting for the cement. Waited 2 months and still nothing. Tired of driving my 99 honda civic for 3 months after my tacoma was totaled lol

 

Dude, you’ll regret it.....You’re super white will never be good enough every time time you see a cement, just be patient and get what you want!! Patience really is virtuous

 

I'm waiting for a black/black limited...... Don't care how long it takes.

 

If you really want Cement then I would hang on a little longer, it took close to 4 Months to get my truck after I ordered it and it was worth the wait.

 

Thats one thing i dont want to do is regret. The more i see cement the less i like it i guess. Im confused now if theyre silver. Tough one.. id take a cement 4 runner trd pro any day though

 

I just got a call that my dealer has me Pro in blue. But I just got my cement. Might just do a lease takeover. If you want mine, I’m in San Diego

 

Id love your pro.. . Im just scared of the cali prices on them lol

 

My cement is a 2018. Not a pro. I sold my 17 pro to get the blue one but found this one and leased it. I’d just transfer the lease. I got a good deal.

 

I haven't noticed it on mine at all, but I've seen a lot of '18's with that issue. I wonder what changed?

 

Saw one at the dealer today. The new sport grill is even worse than before.

 

What dealer? There was one in Temecula two days ago that was going at MSRP.

 

Everybody had to and the crews were usually put together based on rank. Each crew of four usually consisted of the plane's crew chief, junior crew chief, a weapons troop, and one specialist (avionics, engines, or electrical and environmental). Every plane had to be washed every 60 or 90 days, I can't remember. And we had 24 planes in our squadron. So until you made E-4, you would usually do 2-3 a month, depending on your squadron size.

It's like a tattoo, when you start thinking about getting one, you start noticing all the ones around you. Tape a picture of the cement tacoma to your honda dashboard. When you're driving, you'll start noticing how many there are and if you see yourself in the driver's seat. Should only take a few days to decide if you want to wait or if you'll regret going with white.

 

How is it different? And is it different by design? What was changed?

 

Wait what?!!....Stop!

Reason 1 - That's not a great deal
Reason 2 - Cannot wait = Emotional = Bad decision

 

Interesting -- I'm glad I never had to wash the RC-135's I was a crew member on -- of course we only had 6 planes and 2 of those were in the air every single day for 20 hour missions. The wild thing-- those 6 planes are still flying today and this was in the early 70's

 

I drove a Silver DC OR LB with the Automatic Transmission today. Yikes. That transmission was shifting all over the place. Very poor throttle response when you put it to the floor. Felt like the old days with turbo lag. Even the sales guy was like, wow, this truck sucks.

 

That’s weird. I was a little worried about the shifting complaints myself and even test drove a 17 Pro and thought it did have some erratic shifting. With my 18 Pro I have felt like it shifts just fine. Want it to go faster...I just push the pedal more. So far I have put about 100 miles on it and have no complaints with shifting. That being said, the truck doesn’t drive like a sports car either. But it sure moves a lot better than my previous 2001 4 banger tacoma.
