And so the adventure begins! I spent the last few months debating the big 3 and the pro just came out on top every time. I felt the Bison and the Raptor would always start with “I was going to get a Pro but….” They all are very nice trucks but there is something special about the Tacoma both inside and out. Plus the community surrounding Tacomas just makes it even better.

I came to same decision. Cancelled or pulled deposits on ZR2 three times. Given the delays GM had on the Colorado, by the time the allocations came through I was searching the Western states for a PRO. I paid the ransom, drove it back across three states and never looked back -

You have any ideas where your going to start with the build? I have to say that everything I read online talks abouts specs specs specs but the Tacoma is just far better looking than the Ford Raptor. I like the looks of the Chevys but couldnt get past their shit service.

Definitely have some ideas but one of the great things about the Pro is you don’t have to do much. People spend tons to get a TRD up to the point where the Pro is stock so at the end of the day, is the $10k really that “insane”? I don’t think so. The hybrid motor alone is worth it and then you get a ton of options with it.
So the style I gravitate to is the clean “pre runner” look and not this overland look with 1000 attachments and bed racks. one of the other reasons I chose the Pro was it fits into the styling I like. To each their own but for all the 3rd Gen haters, I am not new to this. Here is my 2018 so I have plenty of actual experience vs. just trolling….

I love it. That's why I asked about your "build". If I had gone with a pro I'm not sure where I would have started. Sounds like we have similar style and I've spent more than the difference getting mine to a pro like level. I've always envied how many aftermarket options tacomas get so it's been fun. Did you get real floor mats or the carpet ones? That's a good start. There's some really cool interior accessories to add more usable space. But shit, you got wheels, tires, lift, exterior done. I don't think I would touch anything there.

Amazing photo! Tell me more about the tint- what specs to match factory in the back?

So 30% is the correct shade for the passenger doors to match the factory rear tint. The 70% on the windshield is as close to clear that I know of but you get all the benefits of heat and glare reduction. It’s a very noticeable difference and I will try and get some pics with the true front windshield look.
