Who wins for you: TRD Off-Road or TRD Pro? and why..... Jeff
Trd pro wins
Jeff, tell Toyota to give us a full roll down back window on the Tacoma like the 4Runner.
Trd offroad with the premium package. 6’ bed all day long. Not even an option for the pro:(
@@nickcooper7867 yes!
Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 wins. Front and rear lockers, Full digital dash, Multimatic spool valve suspension, Waaaay more power, and priced right in between the Tacomas at 50k.
I got a 2020 TRD Off-Road 4x4 with the advanced technology & luxury package for $44k out the door last year w/ 9k miles in mint condition. I got every feature of the TRD Pro in my taco, even the TRD skid plate. Don’t have the fox suspension of course but the bilstein suspension is already so good.
So in my case, all the TRD Pro is for me is a TRD Off-Road appearance package with fox suspension. I do very intense off-road activities and overlanding with my off-road and am perfectly comfortable. I also do not want a hood scoop. So a year later, TRD OR still wins for me.
Not to say the Pro isn’t badass. That’s a damn good truck. But not really necessary especially considering the off-road can do pretty much everything a Pro can do.
Glad you like yours. Both of them are sure worth having. Each has their good points. Nice to know the OR hold up. Thanks for commenting and watching.
@@Toyotajeff Thanks for making great videos! I genuinely enjoy watching all of them.
I'd say either is a good choice. I'm more of the Off Road Pkg guy. The Pro is a terrific package..we bought my wife a new 4Runner TRD Pro one year ago (Lime Rush) - she loves it! She's more flashy than me - hahah!
I own a 2019 Tacoma Off Road (Calvary Blue) - bought it new Jan 19. I now have 213K miles on my truck...trouble free miles! A lot of those miles are in 4WD!!
I can personally attest to the reliability of these vehicles...they handle well in town, out of town and everywhere (you decide to go ) in between!!
Love my '21 tacoma trd Off road with 6 speed manual in army green. Best truck. That octane and lime green is to gaudy for me. Keep the army green. Peace.
Heart: trd pro
Wallet: sr5
That darn wallet seems to win out every time. But the heart knows. LOL. Thanks for commenting and subscribing to my channel.
I picked up my absolutely perfect version the TRD off-road with the premium package and six foot bed in Lunar Rock! I’ll admit that I am a little jealous of those beautiful red upper control arms but I love the soft ride of my OR. Jeff, your videos definitely helped me make the decision on which Toyota Pickup to purchase! You’re worth you’re weight in gold for Toyota! Thanks!
If you're buying the Tacoma with the technology 📦 & premium 📦 you can almost buy a Pro for that price... I think it's best to go with the off-road that's more basic you can save a lot of 💰... With options you'll be up to $46,000 real quick. Basic package you're right about 41,000 but you still get 4X4, locking differential & crawl control.
Your correct on that. For a couple bucks more I'll take the pro and leave it alone. Not change anything to it.
there's not that many trd pros out there.
Very thorough brother thanks!
Now for a serious question. With the release of ‘24 Tacoma…who would buy a ‘23 now? I will buy TRD OR only if I can get at dealer invoice and no dealer installed options, gimmick products. I am ready when you are. Just let me know.
🎶Torn between two lovers Jeffrey, feeling like a fool……..🎶🤣
Off Road ;! Hands down! 2023 six foot bed sitting in my driveway, dark gray in color loving it!
Pro all day
good review, thanks
TRD Off Road in exactly that package. I'll take cloth seats over the premium seats. The TRD Pro is way too flashy. Yuck.
I hate the 5ft bed they need a 6ft or 6.5ft why not have the option?
I decided to not get a Toyota due to their 5ft only option on their TRD PRO model.
TRD Pro all the way.
Is the pro one inch higher on front and rear ?
I believe it’s 1.5 in front and .5 in rear
TrD pro look better but I hate the black side finder. Jeff don’t rip your pant now. 😂
🤔…Mine…SR5 🤪😅
Off road wins price of Pro not worth it
Don’t hear much about the sr5 it’s all about the tro or Trd I’ve got a 2023 sr5 4wd does everything I want it to do just do a little hunting and fishing does great . Not rock crawling or desert running just saying this truck needs a little recognition had 4wd all my life I’m 61 and to me this is a beast for the average person
90 percent of sr5's are not 4x4. They are just prerunners with big wheels. Kinda like an old 2001 mustang with a v6
TRD off road with all the bells and whistles available one still saves about 5000 when all the numbers are tallied. Only exception being the shock suspension set up, but one off road has is already very good!
The PRO has the superior ride...off road and on road....not even close. I've had BOTH. If your just gonna go aftermarket...get the cheapest 4x4 tacoma you can find.
Went with the TRD off-road. I'm not a fan of the hood scoop and grill on the TRD pro.
I just picked up a 23 TRD Off road about 3 weeks ago and after watching this with everything that I have on mine is everything that a Pro has except the fox shocks, skid plate and badging.
Heated leather seats, JBL speaker premium sound, moonroof , Birds Eye view etc ❤
@@cajjmiar Yup got all that..
For a couple grand more, you could've got the pro. But on the other hand not alot of people have the trd pro because there's not that many of them out there.
@@samochoa6733 Trust me I know. The difference is that the one I got had just been delivered and was ready to go. The dealer I dealt with have 3 PROs coming in but they are still about a month out, and I am already paying enough for this one lol.
@@samochoa6733and 10-15k marks up my guy
On my 23 TRD Off Road, I’ve got the 6’ bed, leather, sunroof, satellite view, front and side cameras, LED Lights etc. The only plug that I don’t have is the TRD PRO suspension.
The window sticker on my Off Road was $55K , but I bought it for $48K.
This comparison is exactly what I've been looking for. I liked this dude's energy, then he hit me with Dexter music and I loved it!🤣
Yes!!! I love you got the Dexter reference!
I will pick TRD pro 👍👍
Good choice. Thanks for subscribing and watching my videos.
That TRD map hood graphic is so freaking cheesy.
If it so happens that a customer needs to special order a tacoma with a manual transmission, and the general waiting period is around 6 months, would we run into any problems with order fulfillment considering they need to start production of the 2024 model year soon? Or will orders be available for 2023's for the rest of this year regardless of the 6 month wait window? Say for example I want to order a 2023 Taco TRD OFF ROAD with a 6 speed manual, around September or October............would I still be able to do that that close to the end of the year? It's because I want a manual taco and the 2024's likely aren't going to be available in manual, so I plan to get a 2023. I hope I can still do that.
i just put a deposit on a manual pro yesterday, (April 10) and was told that it will be available mid may. it was hell locating it as well (white trd pro manual trans), so if you really want one, dont wait. i was told Toyota allocates them to dealers and you get what they have in regards add ons.
Moving to Raleigh from sunny San Diego CA in a couple weeks! Very excited to come get my first Tacoma from you! 😊
Oh wow that’s so cool!!! Email me at toyotajeff1@gmail.com to say hi
I want the TRD pro seats in the access cab with a lift kit and the manual transmission I wish there were an option to have a standard cab manual 4x4 with an 8 foot box
0ff road price
I am waiting for the redesign 4Runner hopefully they offer trd off road premium definitely want to save the extra 10 grand.
Off road, no need to spend over 50k and basically have the same truck. Same engine, same transmission, same offroad equipment. Fox shocks are great but not 10k great.
I Love my TRD Off Road 4WD double cab with the 6’ bed
Decisions! Decisions! Decisions! 🤣👍
I’m loving my ‘23 TRD PRO in Ice Cap white so far with tint and clear protective film that I removed all of the exterior badging on the doors and tailgate. I don’t recall if you mentioned the subwoofer or TRD exhaust on these. The rear door speakers are garbage and I wasn’t too happy with the engine and gearing when I first started driving it with 3 miles on the odo back in January; now after 1500+ miles it’s more responsive, but I will get a tune eventually. The infotainment system and several other amenities are sub-par even compared to my wife’s 2020 Grand Cherokee, but I absolutely love the looks of these trucks!
My local toyota dealers have no problem allocating trd off roads. Any configuration. But when it comes to trd pros theres a 1 year wait and usually there's 3 people already on the waiting list.
All that a side and for a couple bucks more I'll pick the trd pro.
Just crazy about that wait for the pro isn't it? Thanks for commenting and watching my channel.
I just got the trd off road I love everything about it but I would really like if it had the same folding back seats, hood and shocks as the trd pro but I'm still super happy with my truck but if I could I would definetly switch out all those things
Bro my off road was 40k
TRD Off-road is the best and they better keep it in the new one. Savings can go for better off-road components King Suspension uca upgrade etc. The upper control arms from Toyota were offered YEARS later not in the early ears of the pro which sucks if you bought those years. The pro should’ve came with HP difference for the price
And a front locker
Great review, Jeff. I think the majority wants the Pro but cant afford the Pro. So the majority goes Off Road or Trail Edition.
No, definitely do not want the pro.
I’m Wayover sunroofs I didn’t want Z specialty fox suspension I don’t actually care for the TRD Pro grill like it seems most people really love it.
I don’t care for the rigid fog, lights or the hood scoop or leather.
I do like a lot of the other features of the pro though, the 1.5 inch lift kit height and the colors.
I have a 21 off road manual. Just broke 10k
I am having a real hard time comprehending what the real practical differences are that warrant a $10K difference? Hood scoop? ewww. Leather seats? Ouch. .5" lift in the back? seriously? Camera upfront? Really? Moon roof? HELLO!! TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS difference for the same vehicle with a few 'comfort' features?
I’m just gonna put everything to rest now with all of this talk. 90% of people do not even use a $40-$60,000 investment for offloading. So somebody please try to sell me on why you need to get a Trd pro. I’m just curious why you don’t geta limited because most people are not going to go off Roading
I finally SUBBED after watching you for month's. Lol, seriously I love your enthusiasm and sense of humor. Just picked up a '23 TRD PRO 4X4, at LONGO here in So. Cal, didn't pay a penny over that ridiculous mark up they still have at many Dealerships. Longo is the nation's #1 volume Dealer years running
Longo is an excellent dealership! And thanks for finally and officially jumping on the train haha
@@Toyotajeff oops, meant TRD OFF ROAD…
Would the trd offroad with trd lift have a higher stance than the trd pro? I can’t tell if they have the same stance from this video…
Trd off road would be higher 0.5” in front and back than the pro
im going with trd off road. Another 10 grand for fancy shocks, leather, jbl speakers just not worth it to me. plus i think the trd pro looks like its trying to hard. just my opinion.
Ford maverick isn’t
OFF ROAD has all the bells and whistles you would ever need. TRD PRO is just wasting money.
Edit: neither. A SR5 4x4 V6 is just as capable as the higher trims. Most of these will be driveway queens anyway. Will never see dirt in their lives.
Silver is the ugliest color if u call it that. And color wise i would wait till the off road comes in solar octane the following year with a long bed configuration. Simple. The pro is just badges and cosmetic looks. Fox shocks arent all that. I would install some KINGS
I had a 2022 TRD oof-road manual (premium and conseil safe) in lunar rock. Now I am getting into a 2023 TRD off-road (premium, front camera, and rock crawl mode) in Electric Lime.
Yes Please!
I have a TRD OR in Magnetic Grey coming this week.. now the 4Runner becomes the wife's truck
Jeff I want the Toyota hilux or the LC70 !! Bring it to North America . Toyota century is the best luxery car ever made I wish you could review those or provide insights !!
I wanted the pro. But dealerships in my area have them with a mark up value of $7-12k. I walked out with an off rd at msrp. Win/win.
How do you get the headlights to flash like that?
its the camera, LEDs flicker when recorded on a digital camera.
@@Matt-uj9wl 😂👍🏻 thanks. Makes sense now that I think about it.
Without the factory sticker on the TRD, means more dealerships shenanigans with cost obscurity.
I picked up myself a TRD Off road and I’m really happy with it! It has most of the TRD Pro has except the badging, leather seats and the fox shocks but all else is great! I love my TRD off road
How much you get it for after taxes
@@steve9348 $43k flat. that is out the door.
@@julioguillen9394 this is for a 22????? New or used… how are you liking it and how’s gas
@@steve9348 2023. Gas is great. $55-$70 empty to full from todays gas prices but last me a week with a 40 mile travel
That and also maybe because there's not that many trd pros coming to dealers.
Pro. For the color. Otherwise im good with the OR
Yup. I agree
Picking up my off-road with upgrade package and factory lift in the bright crazy green❤️
Winner TRD Off-Road Premium - Thanks Jeff I really enjoy your videos.
Pro
You dead could make this same video over and over and I’m still gonna watch 🧙♂️
Tacoma heads just different lmao
If it ain’t a 6’bed it ain’t a truck it’s a jeep
Are they full frame trucks
Paid 41k for my 23 off road
6:44 - JCVD?
Show us the dealers invoice
TRD pro vs trail edition!?
Trd pro.
Trail edition is just an sr5 with a package.
TRD OFf Road pls
Hope they offer solar octane on the 24 Tacoma in lower packages !
I could definitely see that happening. It's a popular choice.
that orange is perfect for halloween. lmao
Hey, they can always see it coming. LOL.
Pro! The Tacoma TRD Pro has caught my eye for the last month. Considering buying one but not sure how I will like going from a full size Ram Rebel to a mid size truck.
Ram rebel ain’t that big plus the trd looks better and is a better truck in the long run
@@steve9348 it’s quite a bit larger than the Tacoma. I drove a Tacoma and a Tundra yesterday. Considering a TRD Tundra!
@@HertzPenske are the new tundras any good ?
@@steve9348 I really like the Tundra. Problem I’m having is getting one that’s not priced several thousand above MSRP. Same problem we ran into when we bought my wife a 2023 4Runner TRD Pro last week.
@@HertzPenske trd pro anything is the way to go. If you can find one. There's not that many of them out there
Pro all the way!
If you are going to spend 45k to 49,000 dollars on a truck. It wouldn't be wise to take it off road. Great review Jeff.
Thanks Dan. Nice of you to say so.
If you can’t take it off-road then what the hell are you spending that money on it for. Buy a Prius.
So the pro has the same off road tech as the offroad?
As long as it has a manual transmission, either one.
Manual is sure a good option. Each has their good points Thanks for watching.
Over $40k for small pick up truck, bare bone vehicle with 1980 rear brake system.!! Who pays for these things these prices??. We certainly living in the end time
