TRD Sport Package - A look at the quickest and baddest Tundra available for the street enthusiast.



TRD Sport Package - A look at the quickest and baddest Tundra available for the street enthusiast.


What Toyota Tundra model offers the best combination of performance and style? What Tundra would command attention from a custom-truck show? Or a drag race? What Tundra is least likely to have an identical model show up in the same neighborhood? In other words, what's the most exclusive Tundra that can come out of the showroom? Try a Regular Cab/Standard Bed TRD Sport Edition. This is the hot rod Tundra with the biggest, most powerful engine saddled in the lightest chassis and body. It can't even be weighed down with the tow package because of the trick rear bumper. This baby is built for acceleration and styled for cruising. It has a sophisticated, street-smart monochromatic paint finish, 20-inch "dubs" and familiar TRD graphics. Available only in Radiant Red or Black, the TRD Sport Edition is also offered in the Double Cab. Regular Cab trucks, however, have the traditional stance and profile that many enthusiasts prefer. And they're the lightest for outstanding acceleration and fuel economy. The TRD Sport is also offered only with the Tundra Grade trim, so there aren't many options to weigh down the cab. Here's a reminder of the other features in the package:
Fog lights
Black interior
Cloth-covered bucket seats
Center console
Toyota Accessory billet-aluminum shift knob
Toyota Accessory pedal covers
Sliding rear window
Privacy glassThis is a one-off package with select sales goals. In other words, not many are scheduled for production. Split between two colors and two cab styles, the owner of a TRD Sport can rest assured that not many other identically equipped Tundras will be at the same weekend cruise. The TRD Sport is also a perfect platform for performance and aesthetic modifications. Start with a TRD supercharger that will boost the 5.7-liter V8 over 500 horsepower with 550 lb-ft of torque. Then add a Genuine Toyota color-keyed hard tonneau cover. Pump up the volume a little with the TRD dual side-exit, cat-back exhaust. There isn't much more the aftermarket can do to create the ultimate street truck. And it can all be covered by a Toyota warranty.
