    While waiting on the 23 TRD PRO oil change at the dealership. I decided to get up and walk around. Looked at the 25 Tundra and then walked back in. As I was walking back in I was approached by salesperson.
    They asked me if I wanted to buy new. No thanks, just here for an oil change. " o what kinda vehicle do you have". A 23 Tundra TRD PRO.
    "We have sr5 trd pro". And I continued with no thanks, I'm good with my TRD PRO. "But wouldn't you like a new sr5 trd pro" NO, I have the actual TRD PRO model. I don't think she realized that there is an TRD PRO trim and not just a package.

    At this point I would just wait for a 26 model as it almost here which sounds like lots of changes to the 26.

    And on top of that, they could not remove the gorilla lugnut to do the tire rotation. Guess I'll be going out to buy a breaker bar and some new jack stands

    A dealership could not get a lug nut off? I would not trust them do do anything.

    Say...if you buy the new TRD Pro truck, it'll come with a brand new lug nut.
