    I first read this on CD and assumed it was a typo but now I've found it in several different articles. CD says the TRD Pro has "a limited-slip center diff in the part-time four-wheel-drive system’s electronic transfer case"

    Ok, what? Just to be clear, there's no center diff since it's a part-time 4wd, right? Is this just a typo that CD got wrong and then got copied by several other people? (forbes, bloomberg....) Or does the TRD Pro have a different transfer case than the standard Tacoma (like the old 4runner multi-mode VF3AM transfer case?)

    The 4runner pro is part time 4wd......no center diff. Only the limited model has a center diff.
