    See one pull out of windward servco with paper plates, the cement Tacoma version. It’s just a glorified sr5 I went in and looked.

    Neither the 4Runner or the Tacoma even have the mirror turn signals. Just another servco mafia scam

    Yup.
    Nothing special. For something so limited you'd think they'd throw all the bells and whistles in there.
    Just for kicks did a build. Bah.

    At least through in the TRD head unit, make it a 4x4. Although the seats would be nice though

    Seen a Voodoo Blue Tacoma one at pearls a few weeks back. Thought to myself that it was a hella nice looking truck (minus the chrome bumper caps) until I got closer and seen THAT GODAMN 'SR5' EMBLEM.

    So. Much. Disappointment. :facepalm:

    Just slap a Toyota emblem on anything in Hawaii it will sell. It’s uber ridiculous

    Yea they could have done a lot more very disappointing. But servco knows most of their customer base will eat this up.

    The least they could've done was replace the SR5 badge with that 1919 one like they did with the T4R...

    Just like the dumb Texas edition they do here, I think I paid like $2k extra for the package and the only thing left on the truck is the emblems. If I wasn’t so impatient about buying a truck I could have saved myself the money by waiting for another truck to come in. Oh well.

    No hate towards to the SR5s bro. Just putting out my opinion on what Servco should've done instead. I love all Tacos as much as the next guy (as long as they don't look ridiculously fucked)

    Aloha all! I've been wanting a Tacoma for many years...and I'm about ready to plunge head first.....glad I found this forum! I was looking at the Tacoma Waialua edition....mainly because of the color! Really caught my eye! Anyway...after reading a couple of the threads on the SR5, I'm getting the sense that it is not well liked...so wanted to see why. Maybe its just the price/features for this particular edition? I'm just getting started on the research...but my lease us up on my current vehicle in about 15 days...so I'm a little behind/short on time. Hope someone can give me good insight on the issue. The current selling price is $31K...which does not seem so outrageous given that you are getting larger tires/wheels, navigation and backup sonar/camera, along with the seat covers. And I believe it has an upgraded/larger display.
