- TRD Camry was/is super cringe
- Heck, even the TRD trucks aren't that great (you can get the same parts - skid plates, Fox shocks, 4wd lockers - in the aftermarket which are likely cheaper and perform to a similar standard)
TRD is very much of the time, a trim package. Just like SS and R/T. But if you dig through the TRD catalog, its full of amazing products. Toyota doesnt like people messing with their engine reliability, But there are TRD Superchargers for the Tacoma, 86, and Tundra. As well as much beefier off-road suspension options. TRD on the showroom is a half step to a full upgrade package.
