To clear up a few items, you can get the double cab long bed with any trim except TRD-Offroad or TRD-Pro, so Base, SR5, TRD Sport, and Limited.

Note Base is not SR5, they are different. You can tell the base models by the black plastic fenders and front bumper, where as SR5 is painted. Just a wild guess, but with the regular cab gone I would bet some dealers don’t even stock base models anymore. I have a Base model Tacoma, it does not even come with intermittent windshield wipers, probably the most annoying thing on the truck. Luckily prior owner added cruise to mine.

My 2cents, Base omits some basic features you would probably want to add, Sr5 has those features, and TRD-Offroad has the rear E-locker. TRD-Sport and TRD-Limited are basically more bling, bigger wheels, and fancier gadgets, not my cup of tea but to each their own. TRD-Pro is factory lifted, extra skid plates, etcetera.
