2015 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro: Around the Block - Automobile
The new Tacoma TRD Pro packs a mix of Bilstein and TRD suspension components, TRD wheels, BFGoodrich all-terrain tires, TRD exhaust, and naturally, some cosmetic touches, in this case blacked-out lettering and optional orange paint. Brad's truck might have an extra inch of lift, longer control arms, two more inches of tire, and the trail rash to prove his truck is no pavement pounder, but I have faith that this factory-fresh Tacoma has what it takes. Tires aired down, traction control off, stability control off, RSCA (whatever all that is) off. I leave the truck and two-wheel high and put my foot down. The TRD exhaust spits out a throaty V-6 bark and the back end squats. Just leave the TRD Pro in two-wheel and it's just as chuckable. Las Vegas – It's pretty cool to have multiple-time off-road racing champion Ivan "Ironman" Stewart riding along when you're bouncing a Toyota Tundra along a rutted gravel track in the desert. ) Like the Tacoma and 4Runner also on hand, this Tundra is equipped with a new Toyota Racing Development (TRD) Pro Series package that was revealed at the 2014 Chicago auto show. Available this fall for an as-yet undetermined price, the TRD Pro treatment beefs up the Toyota trucks and SUVs for use on tough terrain like we're tackling half an hour south of the Vegas strip. The basic recipe is the same for all three Toyota models. Source: www.automobilemag.com
