Who do I have to pay to get a full pardon? 💰

I'm partially to blame for that. I was genuinely curious about the viscosity and interval. As these trucks get old enough to finally start accumulating some miles it's just it's nice to know what seems to be working for some people. They answered "Valvoline 5w30 every 5k miles". That's all I...

If it was, in fact, a faulty high pressure injector I would absolutely make sure the oil and filter have been changed. Lots of fuel got past the rings, straight into the crankcase.

I believe you can go into the audio settings and change it to default to whatever your last source was on start up. In my case, I have it set to automatically start Android Auto

Not a problem. I do it all the time and have to carch myself

That post was from a couple of years ago. It would be interesting to see if anything has improved for them. Having owned 6 Tacomas before my '26, my expectations on fuel economy was low. But my particular rig has really surprised me. It's getting great fuel mileage (great for a truck anyway)...

My buddie's '24 OR had a leaking rear shock. But it was early on in ownership. I wouldn't think corrosion would have had anything to do with it. Either way, it was replaced under warranty.

I feel like a dork responding to "what's your mileage" thread when I have so few on it. But right around 3k miles in about 2.5 months.

Nice. I broke the 30 mpg barrier this morning.

I finally hit 31 this morning. Cool morning, upper 60s, so no need for A/C, cruise set at 68 for the highway portion.

What oil and interval are you using?

I certainly have no reason to embellish it. Also, I can only go by what the truck is telling me. Frankly I'm willing to bet that it's at least as accurate if not more-so than calculating it manually. I'll note that my rig is a base 2wd SR. I have a pretty laid back driving style and burn 93...

I'm with you. I get 27 to 31 mpg on my morning commute, per the trip computer....non hybrid SR

Looks great. At the time I was looking at Tacomas, my dealer had an xtra-cab TRD PreRunner. It was very nice. But as beautiful as they are, I swore a long time ago I wouldn't own another black vehicle. Just too much upkeep. BTW, the DCSB TRD OR I nearly bought was Underground. I love that color...
