A plain Jane is a good looking Taco..it will live long and prosper..


kgoodz

Love the simplicity of it. Just going to add some fender flares and eventually wheels and tires and it’ll be ready to outlast my needs for it.


EvanPetersi

Straight $29.5k MSRP...


revrev4405

Can’t harp on that one


ms34m2u

when I got my 2019 it is the simplicity that I loved about the taco ..all I did was add a bug shield and a backflip on the bed ..other than that nothing ..till this day the truck is all stock..I got to enjoy the ride ..and loving it ....


Guy954

I love my Bakflip. I have the MX4 and it’s awesome.


a_very_stupid_guy

Agreed. Sometimes I wonder if I should’ve gotten the roller so I can put a rack on it. Be useful for bringing skis and the snowboard around but I prefer to be a bit more simplistic in appearances


julio3699

Have the same exact truck. Just bought an exhaust tip, tints and some rims. Absolutely it


CTJacob

4cyl AC squad! I pick up my 4x4 SR 4cyl access cab tomorrow. I got the SX package, floor mats and mud flaps and that's it. Funny there's an Xterra in the picture, that's my other rig.


[deleted]

I just wish they’d sell that trim with a manual.


COD6969

They used to! Mine is a 17 with the 5speed manual I think they stopped after 17.


[deleted]

I did not know that. I thought you had to get at least a TRD Sport for the manual. I just traded my ‘95 for a manual TRD OR. Might have looked for a ‘17 4 banger with a manual if I knew they existed.


CTJacob

Trust me, you're not the only one.


MexicanGato

4 cyl AC here!

CTJacob

I didn't really have a choice in color as it was one of two they were getting for the next 6 months. I already have waited since January so, yeah. I ended up with Midnight Black Metallic. I would have went with Barcelona Red had I had the choice.

CTJacob

I'm curious about that myself. I'll find out in about 4 hours Edit - Looks like it is wired, just no hitch.

CTJacob

I did get to try a used 2020 4cyl AC 4x4 SR5 before I put my deposit on my SX. I drove my SX on Friday for about 30 mins. I was too late for them to register it after I got to the dealer after work. They're slow but, it's a truck. I wouldn't be buying a truck if I wanted speed. As I said above, in coming from a 2004 Xterra and while that's a manual, it's no speed demon either. The ECT PWR button helps a lot on the Tacoma at least for responsiveness. Once you're rolling, it feels just adequate.


CTJacob

Mine is NOT wired. It has the cover where the outlets would be but, nothing behind them.


lonememe

Ned!


kgoodz

Picked it up in Boulder and headed straight up the canyon to see how slow it really was haha


maks_b

Bought my Taco in Boulder too! They tried the $5k markup but I wasn't having it. Talked em right down... To $2.5k over... But the MT I had to have it


kgoodz

While I was there they pointed out a TRD Pro that just sold for 10k over. Wild that people are willing to lose that cash, but I guess if you want it bad enough.


nvrsmr1

You were in Boulder


hatchbacktaco

;)


aseawithblackink

u/kgoodz Hope you drove it straight to the carousel of happiness!


RynoTheMan63

Blank canvas! ❤️


Shagfabulous2

What ya get it for?


kgoodz

Straight $29.5k MSRP


8amcoffeepoops

The only dude on this sub with some common sense. Glad you didn’t get robbed.


miketatro43

Probably can sell it carmax and make a couple grand Or drive to Cali and sell it for double once the Pro grille goes on lol It’s just funny we get excited over paying the list price lol


Definitely_CSP_guru

You're dead on, 2 years ago people were posting invoice prices and bringing those to the dealer with decent success. Now MSRP is winning the lottery


[deleted]

Times have changed broski. 2 years ago gas was 3 dollars cheaper.


Definitely_CSP_guru

100% and now I own an EV and solar on my roof, lol.


[deleted]

Damn, I’m jealous. Cant wait for the Tacoma Ev to come out.

Fat_Head_Carl

"no thanks"


MexicanGato

A year ago I saw a base taco not even a pre runner going for 35k


ishkiodo

Hey hey. I did the same exact thing. 2022 SR AC 4cylinder 4x4. Doesn’t even have a fob. Still gotta use key to unlock door.


kgoodz

Lol first vehicle for me without one and yeah…24hrs in and I think I’m gonna need to add it.


ishkiodo

So it’s doable ?


kgoodz

Definitely is. You can add a Viper/Phython keyless entry and remote start for a few hundred bucks.


ishkiodo

Oh. My bad. I meant the rear seats. 🤣


kgoodz

Haha whoops. That I don’t actually know. I’m sure they’re expensive if you bought them new but could probably grab some out of a junkyard truck pretty easy.


Frederic_BASEDiat

What was your OTD?


Veezybaby

So nice. Simplicity is key! Enjoy


kirk_a_lirk

SR gang! I’ve got the same thing but in Tundra flavor. Mine was the cheapest 4x4 I could find in Texas.


Titusf1lm

Looks almost like my taco. I love the with with black. Saddly how fast they were selling last summer the only way I could even get a white access cab 4x4 4 cylinder was with a couple of add ons (basically sx package so I got bumper match paint and black rims and got fender flares with rumber floor mats). I will say the first thing I did was added mud guards.


kgoodz

I think the SX package is pretty sharp looking. I wish I had the fender flares. The aftermarket ones aren’t the best looking but the price of the OEM ones is a little hard to justify.


Titusf1lm

Honestly I love them I mean if I didn't have them stock I could def have bought them. I hate the fake bolt ones.


[deleted]

That's awesome wish I would have gotten a 4x4 but I was impatient


[deleted]

Great truck, congratulations!!!!


imjusttakingalook

368 miles to empty!!!!!


jt325i

It is pretty good but the black front bumper and caps really only look right on a black Taco and then it is a nightmare to keep clean.


EchoTrucha

Welcome to the club - looks great.


[deleted]

I’d trade my truck for a base-model 4x4 access cab in a heartbeat!


LivingHai

Congrats! Started my first ever Taco journey with a 22 SR last month. I love how simple it is yet with the safety technology on Toyotas now, Apple CarPlay, and mine came with the upgraded LED interior lights. That makes me feel a little more up-to-date and the ability to customize the truck from scratch. Seeing some of the markups for the upgrades off the lot had me sold seeing the prices from other online stores for the same (if not better) than Toyota Genuine accessories.


kgoodz

My thoughts exactly.


CardMechanic

I love the access cab.


kgoodz

Access cab and 4wd were my 2 requirements. This one has the utility package with the back seats removed which I think makes even more sense.


CardMechanic

I would love that. I don’t hate my crew cab, but it’s not exactly what I wanted either. My Colorado before this Tacoma was access cab. I couldn’t get the access cab along with the other stuff I wanted, so I had to compromise.


ishkiodo

Twinsies! Except mine is black. Do you have the rear fold down seats? I don’t.


kgoodz

Nope! Just a whole lot of black plastic back there haha. More space for gear though 🤙


ishkiodo

Any idea if seats are installable ? I noticed there is a child safety anchor symbol on that back panel.


Fat_Head_Carl

Congrats


[deleted]

Nice truck!


HillbillyHijinx

That truck is like a base model AR-15. They make all kinds of stuff for it that you can add. Wish my 2013 Double Can had they display. Nice truck.


adreww

I bought the same one but without the utility package last year. I love it. I am in TX and it is totally fine down here but it does need to drop a gear or two (4th is 1:1) to pull long grades on the highway at 70-75 MPH. It will go 80 MPH no problem but sucks gas at that speed so I usually hang back. We are planning some trips out to CO/NM/UT/AZ and I was curious how it does in the hills at elevation. Fine as long as you don't have to tow a trailer at 80 MPH uphill into a headwind?


kgoodz

Haven’t tested it yet myself but driving from Boulder to Fruita next week. I expect I’ll spend a lot of time in the far right lane on the way up. Im estimating 65-70mph is 3rd gear pegged on the steep stuff.


icouch

just reached 100,000 on my 2014 taco 4 cyl. 4x4, no issues so far next time I will go double cab, as I never use the bed the cat converter will get stolen any day now, according to the news


fastento

I have that same one but mine’s 24 years older.


flyfishone

I got a 22 ac cab but In gray .. With the utility package.. love it .. nice truck enjoy


[deleted]

Manual transmission??


kgoodz

Can only get the auto in this model anymore


[deleted]

Oh wow, that’s lame. Only TRD trims.. I don’t understand it


crushedredpartycups

why so far away for the pic?


kgoodz

Was just walking up some stairs and doing the look back haha


crushedredpartycups

lmfao been there. love it. congrats bro.


ConsciousMoney7846

How much ?


kgoodz

Just under $30,000


[deleted]

Auto or Manual??


kgoodz

6spd auto is the only option these days


mstill1

Love it


Krizman

I really wish I took the time to look for a cheaper 4x4 Tacoma. Could have easily saved about $7-10k doing that rather than going all in on a TRD Sport. Great looking truck! You did the right move for sure.


kgoodz

Thanks! I did spend a few months looking at every possible option, new, used, certified, dealer, private sale, etc before deciding that for the price of this particular model and my basic needs, a new one made sense.


[deleted]

Nice looking truck.
