2025 TH, 5foot bed, icecap white, purchased January 2026. I think it arrived on the Dealer lot in September. 59k USD before taxes, It was marked 6.7k under MSRP, basically 10% off. Minimal addons (PPF, Tacoma black badging on tailgate, and door edge guards). No haggle listing.

2nd/3rd what others had said, not normal, but not consistent enough to sound like engine rattle. It's sounds like something not torqued or clipped down all the way or something just slapping around. check to make sure all the plastic cowling is tight and clipped in around our wiper blade area...

It's a tradeoff of a composite bed. if you're putting significant weight along the sidewalls or rails, you should get bed stiffener's to help prevent the bed warping or in extreme cases, a crack while off roading. It's a low cost preventive measure. I don't have them installed, but would if i...

It likely just needs errors codes cleared unless you bumped something jumping starting it from the relay under the hood. Someone correct me if I'm wrong since i don't have my manual on me, but you're supposed to leave the truck in "ready" mode if you plan on running battery power or use the...

It was for sure something i wanted to have, even if i rarely used it. I don't remember where, but in the owner's manual I remember reading that you should cycle the disconnect once every month or so. It keeps the internals lubricated as they move around. Every several of weeks ill engage it...

I plan to throw on a viofo or something in the next month and was looking at the dongar adapters after, unironically Chloe's video as well. I noticed their Pro+ is on preorder for may. Do you utilize any of the parking options and how do they work? No worries if not, i'm not that concerned...

This sounds kind of interesting, not at all familiar with e85-e30 blends, but I guess those titration skills from chemlab will finally come in useful when calculating how much to add at the pump. I might be too much of a coward to do it while it's still under warranty for a bit, but would it be...

Did a mini road trip over the weekend to Vegas. Our office participates in a 120 mile relay race from baker to Vegas and I was a support driver and ended up running one of the legs of the relay because the original runner couldn’t make it. This is me getting home on Sunday. Not pictured is...

I would for sure consider getting that, especially if i didn't have to change the glass out, also because i got an 80% clear ceramic tint on the windshield already.

Might also be a cost issue, with the windshield? I imagine the glass is different there to allow the HUD to be more visible. Toyota might have decided the increased cost of glass wasn't worth it if it meant it could use the same windshield across all models for now. but if the cost to add it...

did you end up relocating the rearview mirror camera?

8 speed. you can bypass the auto on/off if you slap the gear selector into S. but know it's not a true sequental gearbox in that mode, but a gear limiter, it just limits the max gear the transmission can use. if you do that and want to drive normally, click it up to 8. tow/haul mode also...

Man, you kind of followed my buying path. Wanted the premium for the camera setup, wanted the inverter cause it's nice to have (saw some dude on youtube running an air fryer off it to cook frozen pizzas while overlanding. I can't speak for others, just my experience with the hybrid engine. I...

Not my story, but my old college roommate sold his 3rd gen when his wife got pregnant and got a Lexus SUV. We've talked about this exact issue and he says but for the kids/childseats he would have kept the Tacoma. He was very close to getting a Tundra but thinks getting the Lexus was probably...

That looks pretty sick. Is the battery swappable? This might be a better all around option given the weight, features, and classification. It's for sure on the books for me too, some sort of electrified 2 wheels to go exploring single track.
