2019 TRD PRO line up

CORRECTED POST!
So I was at my friendly XPEL shop today getting PPF on my new color matched mirror caps, and what did I see? It was actually a Calvary Blue 2018 Tacoma TRD PRO...
Sorry, I was misled.

 

I think that is cavalry blue.

 

Yea definitely looks Calvary. Pretty slim chance there’s a 2019 in the wild the day it was introduced.

 

Disappointed is an understatement. Don't think I can wait until 2021 for a new gen tundra. Might have to settle for the Ford F150 Lariat/Raptor until then.

 

I am starting to feel like I am the only one who likes the 3rd & 2nd Gen. Everyone seems to want drastic changes.

 

Well, it has all of the options described in the live stream this morning except the snorkel and was brought in this morning to the XPEL folks...the new TRD logo on the wheels, the new skid plate, RIGID fog lights, FOX/TRD shocks...and the customer who brought it in told them it was the first one in Texas...

 

Pictures also show bumper sensor for parking radar, sun-roof, heated seats, wonder if it has auto fold mirrors, console display of course.

 

If I hadn't just purchased my 2017 Pro back in August I would definitely be looking at the 2019 Pro. The LED headlights and proximity sensors alone are a big upgrade over mine. Does anyone have any pictures of the interior? I am dying to know if it also has dual climate control.

 

Where does it show heated seats?

 

Here's my 1.5¢

After years of boring but great factory trucks, Toyota finally unveils the TRD PRO line of trucks... For all of us fans this was a huge F@ck YEAH! They were different, better, cooler, and somewhat "hooked up" ... unlike anything thing we had seen from the factory. Fortunately most of the hook-ups were available to modify other lines which gives all of us some really great and various options to build and mod our trucks... Just speaking Tundras here, the Biggest of the Yota line... Then after a few years they decided to ghost the Tundra Pro for a year... We said, wtf. So, in my mind, if you ghost something for a year to add suspense to the reveal... It better be something we haven't seen before. Not just putting some TRD PRO Tacoma rigiid lights and fox shocks. That we have seen already.

Sorry to say, but this line is a huge disappointment and should have stayed ghosted until Gen 4. Where they unleash a unique and ridiculous beast... Supercharged of course!!!!!

 

That’s Calvary blue not voodoo https://www.autoblog.com/used-detail-6777135303725416109-Toyota-Tacoma-2018 peep the wheels

 

Let us know how

that work's out for ya

 

The Taco TRD Pro has had the Fox shocks and Rigid fogs since the 3rd gen Taco came out.

 

Now that I look at the front end again and compare it to the live stream video, it does look different than the white 2019...

SORRY FOLKS!

Just reporting what I was told....

 

Dealers probably wanted it back ASAP so they can overcharge for a slightly lifted SR5 with different badging. They're super cool looking, but I'd never pay what dealers are asking, or not even sticker price for that matter.

 

No good deed goes unpunished.

 

Damn.....I don't mean to toot my own horn, but I had some good guesses

 

Anyone else notice the tiny sliders on the 4runner in the video. Not listed as a feature so not sure if they are aftermarket

 

Ill be trading my 17 in for this. Depending on interior. I wanted a pro when I bought mine but passed cause I said Ill build a better truck. I regret it ever since. I want a 2019 Tundra Pro.

 

Can’t wait to see that blue!

I dunno about that hood scoop though

 

I saw that and was looking on tr4.org for more info but sadly no mention.

 

They look cool but doesn't look like they would provide a ton of protection

 

I do like the fog lights and how they're mounting looks more finished than what Rigids are. While BD might have better output I'd have to imagine Toyota expects people to use them without thinking of blinding other people. I personally want high output for driving back roads/highways with no streetlights at night, but also use them in actual fog and snow in the city and not blind people. I'm not one for moonroofs, and I'll be interested to see reviews on these new shocks compared to the previous Pro shocks.

 

Nope
I’m quite content too

 

Cool wheels
Fox suspension
Possible sunroof
Fake matching hood scoop/spoiler
$43,000

 

Yours is already what a dope Tundra should be

 

Donno if I do a Limited and custom it out or try to keep in Pro line on both vehicles as I do not like the LTD trim 4RNR and I like to keep my vehicles matchy but blah choices!

 

Same as putting hubcaps on a tractor.





Sunroofs do not belong on trucks or SUVs or anything else with a high center of gravity. Having almost been ejected out of one, my opinion is based on experience.
