I haven't looked at the picutres of this truck, just want to comment on everyones missinterpritation of the word "base" when you run the VIN. That's not refering to "Base Model" IE: bottom of the bucket no options.

My TRD Sport Access Cab has always had the work base included in the description on legal documents, insurance documents, and Maint. reccords. For shits and giggles, you guys withTRD O/R's put your vin into this site and see what it says.

I don't know if it's refering to cab size or wheel base or what, but it's definately not an indicator of TRD.

That is what I was saying a few posts above about my TRD OR as being first classified as a "Base". I just searched that site for all the types of Tacomas configured and every returned entry, even the 2WDs, is listed first as a "Base".

Don't put too much into the base model designation. I have a '14 TRD OR and the window sticker labeled it as a base, as opposed to say a Prerunner, XRunner, etc. Also most parts lookup sites only give you a choice of base or say PreRunner. Running my VIN also gives it as a base.

Well, it ain't no TRD OR...........For fun, I took the VIN posted and ran it and it comes up to be the Access Cab with 4:10 differentials, a 5 speed, and the 2.7L engine. It is probably bare bones inside and may be missing just about everything . you think it should have for an expensive truck. It may not even have intermittent wipes let alone cruise control, power windows/locks, etc., etc. FWIW, the OEM decals are about $80 each side.

At least you are doing your homework :smile:. It is also way overpriced for what it appears to be.
