Yeah talk about tacked on, that is a serious chin addition. Thought maybe Nascar was making some rules for the truck series that they had to put the nascar air dam on the street truck.

I've seen landscaping trim tacked onto hatchbacks that look better than that airdam.

given how many people had to look at and approve it before it went into production, I have to wonder if it was rushed or is just an illustration of awkward compromises?

or is it a *wink-wink* "EPA fleet mpg requires it, but we made it easy for you to take it off, we know most of you won't like it"

Oh yeah, definitely - ugly, cheap, removable. Yay more plastic in the landfills!

What is the difference between Tacoma and Tacoma prerunner?
The PreRunner is just a specific Tacoma trim. It's a rear wheel drive truck with a rear locker, two door cab, and long bed. It's meant to be an inexpensive 2WD off roader.
