Thanks for sharing your build on this forumā¦ This is the closest example of the build Iām thinking about right down to the trim level, the Bronze Oxide color and longbed. The only difference Iām looking at is the same wheels in black and going with 285/70/17 instead of 75. Great looking truck!
Love those Method Racing 305 wheels. What offset did you go with? Great looking build and Iām already looking forward to seeing photos of it post lift.
You sure about that? I thought it would be available with a 6ā bed. With the hybrid not available yet, how would anyone know for sure since the hybrid option isnāt in the configurator. Honestly Iām hoping for the same truck as you if the TH is too pricy or comes standard with features I donāt...
This wheel is available in 4 colors with bronze being one of them... https://www.methodracewheels.com/products/703-method-bronze?variant=31924219707453
What trim and package did this truck start off as? Iām 100% in on a 6ā bed too! I absolutely love this one, especially those black Method Racing wheels. If I end up with a TH, Iāll likely replace the bronze wheels with these same MR 703 wheels (or 705). I might look to get rid of the 1ā poke...
Hope you post some photos when you get your truck and MR wheels in black. Iāll likely end up in a OR with 6ā bed in the same color and have been eyeballing MR wheels in black too (if I don end up in a TH).
Yeah, a bummer no shade of green for the new Tacomas! I really like green... My current truck is an ā02 F-150 SuperCrew in Highland Green (think of the Bullitt Mustang color). 22 years of looking at it and I still love that color despite the Carolina sun doing a number on the paint itself...
No full size truck for meā¦. Too big and too expensive! The Ranger and GM twins have all the legroom I need. Was hoping the Tacoma would have as much or more than other midsize trucks, but that doesnāt seem to be the case. Puts me in a tough spot since I want a crewcab with 6ā bed and the...
The color looks great with the black trim. My second color choice behind the Bronze Oxide. Only difference Iād order is adding the premium package to the TRD Off-road and the 6ā bed. Canāt wait to hear their impressions after a 1000+ mile road trip in it.
My only concern is the back seat leg...
Iāll probably do a powder coat (in black) too if I end up with a Trailhunter. I like the wheel design, but not a fan of the bronze wheels with my preference paint color, Bronze Oxide. I want more contrast between the body color and wheels. Looks like they tried to match colors and failed.
100% agree. I like the Trailhunter wheel design, but would prefer them in black. The bronze wheel color looks okay on the white, underground and black with such contrast. The Bronze wheels look too close in color to Bronze Oxide though. Black wheels would look great with this white and Bronze...
I suspect the same for a Trailhunter? Neither are worth a penny over MSRP in my book. Adding the ADM paid to normal depreciation a year later, makes it an easy pass for me. Not that it matters to meā¦ Iām still driving the same truck I bought new 22 years ago (ā02 F-150 Lariat SuperCrew)...
Stopped by my local dealer, Town and Country Toyota (Charlotte, NC) on Saturday. This is a big dealership which is part of the Sonic Automotive Group. Asked a salesmen when the new model would be in and feeling them out for pricing (MSRP and/or ADM). Right off the back I can expect a minimum...
As far as rear legroom goes, I spend most of my time (when not driving) in the back of my wifeās ā16 Honda Pilot or my sonās ā14 Subaru Forester. Both have way more room than new Tacoma. Iām not expecting huge amounts of legroom in the Tacoma, but would have expect more than it has...
Dislike #2 (lack of rear legroom) might be a dealbreaker for me. Crazy with an all new design and they drop the ball in one of the biggest shortcomings of the previous Gen. Sat in a new Colorado TrailBoss and was pleasantly surprised with the rear legroom. Same goes with the outgoing Ranger...
Bronze Oxide for me. Iām disappointed there is no shade of green available for ā24.
Speaking of colors, I hope you are able to select something other than Bronze wheels for the Trailhunter too? Iām fine with the wheel design for the TH but would prefer black over bronze, especially with the...
