Hi there fellow yota fans.
Im thinking about purchasing a new Tacoma 4x4 quad cab with in the next year or so and have a couple questions.
A little back ground on my world... Married with 2 dogs and talk of a kid in the next year or so. I drive a 1st gen. 4runner right now. The 4runner works perfect for our needs as far as camping and scuba diving. Obviously when a kid is introduced to the situation it will be more and more challenging to keep the 4runner.
A fully loaded Tacoma TRD 4x4 can be pretty pricey and I am not sure that, for me, all the TRD equipment is a must. The locking differential isn't a need for me but I do want that option in my next rig no matter what. The TRD suspension seems to lacking from what I have read. I feel like suspension would be one of the first things to be upgraded either way, along with an ARB locker in the rear.
What are your opinions on the the value of the other TRD options offered in the TRD package?
Anyone on here go the non-TRD route and regret it?
What would be the down-side to going the non-TRD route and later upgrading the suspension and differentials?
Hope this was all clear, writing this up while at work. Ha
Thanks
Jason
