I went around and around on this. At the time I had access to any model I wanted.
Ultimately I chose the SR5P because it looks better to me. I got white and blacked out the badges and rims. Looks very sporty with no fake vents or cheap painted bumpers.
We took it up in the mountains here in Colorado recently and it is far more capable as a 4WD then what I need in some of the most rugged mountains there are to drive around in. Get some better tires and maybe a couple upgraded skid plates and you’ll be amazed what ATRAC can do. I’ll never need more.
Plus I saved a lot of money that I’ll be putting on an adventure motorcycle.
All that said, I may get the TRD Pro suspension down the road.
SR5P now has the panoramic view monitor for 2022. I just don’t see any reason to spend more for an uglier truck that basically just has a locker. KDSS turned out to be something I did not want. Tried it and rejected it.
This is just rims and badges. No lift, rock sliders, tires yet.
