1995 models. Differences?

So I now own a 1995.5 Tacoma. It’s not an SR5.

but I have heard there is a “base@ truck and a “DLX”. Is this right?

what are the differences and how do I determine what mine is?

 

1st gen SR5 and DLX are options packages, like cruise control, tilf wheel,
variable wipers, DS lumbar support.
There were also dealer incentive packaged vehicles in early base models like free rear bumper sold during "Toyota Days"
DLX is loaded with all options available
at that time.
SR5 was a mixed bag of options.
What's on your Taco?

 

Look at the sticker on door post.
Join ToyotaOwners.com and log in the VIN#

 

This sticker?

 

Build date 03 1995
Looks like a Toyota pickup

 

Mine has a/c, cruise, tilt steering, power windows and door locks, 2.7L , split bench seat, has chrome grill surround and bumper, 15x7 alloys with 31x10.5r15 tires, power steering and brakes... also has the chrome rear bumper with black plastic top, intermittant wipers. Cloth seats. Manual side mirrors.

 

On the 95-97 models SR5 is actually the top end model. The same package was later labeled “Limited” from 98 on. The LX is the lower trimmed model but can still have options like power mirrors, etc. I have a 95.5 SR5 and it has every option.

The tailgate usually said LX on it?

 

Could still be a Taco, the first ones premiered in mid 1995

 

Yeah, Tacoma was introduced to market in February 95 and premiered March 95.
Could go either way

 

No toyota pickups with a 4 vin. Pre- Tacoma's built in Japan J

 

Thanks, that's the distinguishing mark I have been searching for.

 

Well I started thinking about this after I posted. I had a dark blue 1995 SR5 top of the line 5 spd xcab 4WD made in Japan. It was loaded haha even a sunroof and 7 way sport seats (manual adjustment). That as mentioned changed into the Limited.
I do think Toyota did start switching over to NUMMI plant in early 90s. My friend had a 94 automatic same truck as mine and it may have been partially built in California. So long story, I could be wrong. I apologize. I would use the VIN decoder for sure or Toyota owners as suggested. Enjoy your truck post a pic

 

Yes I was wrong oops! Carry on guys

 

It is a Tacoma, an early built (1995.5). No markings/badges noting “LX” or “SR5”, etc...

I know it wasn’t an SR5, and I thought SR5 came with bucket seats and console .

Thanks

 

I have an 03 SR5 40/60 split bench. Tilt wheel, AC, variable wipers, no Cruise or elect locks/windows like came on DLX.

 

Please stop
I was confused
Now I'm baffled

 

Hey, I just joined toyotaowners and logged my vin, but it wasn't very detailed. I recall seeing thread on here where someone was able to pull a bunch of more information about the vehicle from the vin, do you know where I might find that? I'm talking about trim package, custom orders, factory seat type, etc...

Thanks

 

Yeah, he's a dealer finance mgr.
Does it for a select few flipper friends
and auction/salesmen hookups.
Dealer will do it for you though.
Walk in only.

 

I see. Can you send me a link to the thread. I wouldn't mind sending him a pm. Thanks.

 

Dealer will do it for you.
No to link
He said no
