    2021 Tundra TRD Pro Double-Cab
    #197 2021 Tundra TRD Pro Double Cab ordered in it's final model year. You could only get a TRD Pro double cab in 2021 buy ordering one. I ordered five weeks before Toyota closed down orders for that year. I would argue my TRD Pro is one of the rarest Tundra's ever made. 285/70/18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. RCI rock sliders Leer Tonneau Cover NSV Hood Mounted Lightbar. Genuine Cooling Systems Transmission Cooler (FU Toyota for taking the coolers off in the 1st place WTF) Suspension air bags for better towing.
    For me the rarest package on a Tundra that I have seen is the TRD Rock Warrior package. I have only ever seen one of those in the 25 years Tundra has existed.

    The rarest body style though has to be those awesome 2nd gen single cabs with the 5.7L V8. I have only ever seen one of those before as well.

    I fell in love with the 2nd gen Tundra when my cousin bought a 2008 single cab 5.7L V8 Limited truck 4x4. It was incredible and man it got up and moved. Sadly, he wrecked it about 7-8 years after he bought it and I never saw another one like it...ever.

    I would argue that truck he had is the rarest Tundra ever made. Do you concur or is there one even more rare?

    How many factory blown trucks were there?
    Edit: never mind, the answer is none. Dealer installed option.

    Only 2,202 of the 4x2 RCSB with the 5.7L were produced - authentic Unicorns.

    Another true Unicorn is the 4x4 4.7L regular cab long bed SR5 first generation Tundra.
