2021 Tacoma TRD SPORT Review (Fast Button Tutorial Included)

#TacomaTRDSport #2021Tacoma

If the TRD Offroad was wearing hiking boots and a canvas tactical pack, then the TRD sport is in a color matching sweat suit ready to run the track.

Today we talk about one of the 3 roads you can take in the TRD world of Tacoma!

I have about 200-300 miles of TRD sport drive time myself. They handle tight. The color matching it sharp. And that hood scoop! Y’all offroad guys like me can’t lie, we wanna swap the hood out!

Either way, the sport sells a ton, and for good reason. It’s smooth and sexy. I hope you enjoy this video and share it with someone who might like or benefit from it!

***Fast button overview starts at 12:54

⚠️CAUTION! Cutting the hood scoop to become functional may void your warranty. This would allow water directly into your engine bay. Stock hood scoops typically have an air route that protects your intake and engine from water!

I liked you video. The only feature you forgot was the button for the outside mirror defrosters. Also you can lift up the rear headrest slightly and tilt them 45 degrees forward so they don’t restrict your view out the rear window. I personally own a 2021 TRD Sport with the LED and Technology Packages. I also opted for the blackout package on the exterior. It really looks good on my Army Green exterior color. I got the protection package as well which includes front and rear mud guards. I got the TRD Sport because I mainly drive on paved, dirt, or graveled roads. I take my E bikes on a rear rack that mounts in the trailer hitch and use these to traverse difficult terrain areas. I live in Wyoming where my Tacoma does it’s best on snowy, slippery roads. The hood scoop really adds to the amazing look of this truck. Thank you for showing everyone how to make it functional. Great videos, keep them coming please.

I had the 2019 TRD Sport and traded the other day for the 2022 TRD Sport. I can tell a huge difference between the 2022 and 2019. The 22 rides much better. I’ll never buy anything other than a down the #1 truck no doubt about it!

[johnpierce]

Did an awesome job man much more thorough than anybody I’ve seen keep making videos

I just picked up a 2020 trd sport short bed double cab 4x4 in cement with 12k. Loving it.

[Alicia-jxux]

I like that you are detailed the way you presented your tutorial

[g.fortin]

I like the controls here as well...just enough old school mixed in with the tech. Great vid Brian !

[MarkTurnbull]

Great video!
To answer your question at the end, I've just put in a deposit to lock down a Sport that's getting delivered at the end of the year. The decider for me on going with the Sport over the Off-road was I'm an at-home dad who does custom woodworking on the side. So I needed a daily driver which could also manage full sheets of plywood from time to time, I would have loved to have gotten a 6ft bed double cab but that would have been just a hair longer than my garage is deep (time to get a new house I think).

I could have a lot of fun with an Off-road but I went into getting my Taco knowing what it's use case was going to be.

Great review. I’ve watched hundreds recently and still learned more. Thank you.

[truth]

Really appreciate you showing the underside. Nobody else shows that.

[victorpotts]

Thanks for the video on Tacoma controls . Found the screen that shows location and pressure of the tires from your video.

No regrets on my sport long bed. Definitely to me, it rides very nice. I do have the premium tech pack, dual air was a must in 2020 when I bought my truck, so I got the extra goodies. I do pull a pop-up, but my quad does all the crazy stuff. I'm getting ready to put some new tires to get to the places I want to ride or camp. I was thinking Michelin LTX AT2 or Bridgestone Revo 3. Curious what you would recommend, I don't want to change the ride, and definitely no noise. Very detailed vid, makes me want to go for a ride! I also really like the custom seats. Not sure if you knew the back head rest tilt down, you don't have to take them off for a better view. Dude respect, you tapped your feet before you got in! Well done 👍

Great review, taught me about the ECT PWR button lol gonna start using that

[markpelenytschka]

loved all the points you made in the review

[royportalise]

Hi Brian thanks for tip on hood scoop. I spoke to Mark and told him about wheeling with you. Let me know the next time you go.

[PeHtr]

I like the idea on the scoop to open for more air, what about if you live in the Midwest where it snow and temperature drop to -10 and windchill of -15 I don’t think it will be good, . The motor will froze

[paulm]

That is one good looking truck damn. Beautiful trim. I am going to get this, market adjustment be damned. Great review.

[rickogden]

You did a pretty good job describing the TRD sport. I'll only heard one issue. You said TRD sports only get the color matched rear corner bumpers, if you also have the technology package. That is incorrect. All TRD sport's get color matched bumpers.

[michaelturgeon]

Good video, fast and to the point. I personally don't think I need a locking differential. I have a SR5 trail edition and it has everything I need including basic Toyota 4X4. I like my truck enough not to drive it on dug out pot hole roads or trails. That's me, if i do an extreme trail, I'll back pack it and make it a leg Old School Soldier

[FrankFerrell]

Thank you for this video boss!!!! Great job!!
