  1. SR5 4x4 with 18" TRD OR wheels 265/70's - Upgrade spare?

    Odd, my OR has 17-inch wheels (265/70 R17 tires). You can play around with sizes here: https://tiresize.com/calculator/
  2. SmartCap EVO Bed Cap for 2024 Tacoma (5' and 6' Bed)

    Looks a bit pricey. I'm going to be looking for (or making) a bug screen for the side windows so that I can leave one open at night.
  3. Real-Life MPG Thread - Share Your 2024+ Tacoma 4th Gen's Gas Mileage! â›˝

    Finally did a run to visit my children. Round trip of 1,081 mi. 1/3 country highways in mountains (Show Low AZ to Phoenix via Globe). The rest interstate (I10 from Phoenix to Riverside CA) averaged 23.5 mpg. My 2016 Prerunner 4-cylinder used to get around 20.9. Now for the fun part. Had the...
  4. SmartCap EVO Bed Cap for 2024 Tacoma (5' and 6' Bed)

    The 6' EVO Sports just started shipping. Mine comes Thursday. Crossing my fingers that it doesn't have shipping damage.

  6. Toyota Extra Care Platinum Warranty Prices

    Check with the online dealers before canceling. I recall seeing somewhere that non-CA dealers can't sell a VSA in CA.
  7. Anyone else having trouble with mpg rates?

    Yes. It's in the settings for the instrument display. Here's an overview of how to make changes. There is a "fuel economy" setting which controls whether to use average since reset or average for trip. There is an acceleration setting for the cruise control with high/mid/low.
  8. Fender Whoops..............

    Loctite and JB Weld both have epoxy glues designed for plastics. Loctite also has a 2-component superglue for plastics. I've used the Loctite epoxy, and it worked well, but it wasn't in a high stress application.
  9. Anyone else having trouble with mpg rates?

    And have you done a manual calculation or are you just looking at the computed value on the display?
  10. Anyone else having trouble with mpg rates?

    Don't know what to tell you. I was shocked the first time I checked the actual fill-up to fill-up mileage because it was on a 130+ mile run in the mountains with lots of up and down grades. I was expecting 20 or less MPG. If you have somewhere that fits, try this. Find a 60 mile or so stretch of...
  11. Anyone else having trouble with mpg rates?

    From what I've seen so far (have about 2400 mi), speed has everything to do with it. Stop and go traffic may also have a major impact but I don't get into that much. I get 25+ mpg (measured from fuel fill-up) on country highways through mountainous terrain. Elevation changes average out (some...
  12. Scout Pickup Reveal Coming 10/24/24

    Got a little exited when I read about this a while back. Until I saw the dreaded "EV".
  13. 2024 TRD Off-Road Gas Tank Capacity When Filling Up?

    So far on mine the actual gauge has been accurate when I fill up (half-tank takes ~9 gal, 3/4 takes ~14). I look at the "miles to empty" as comic relief. I'd like to just turn it off. Never have run it low enough for the warning to come on.
  14. 2024 TRD Off-Road Gas Tank Capacity When Filling Up?

    What does the fuel gauge show (the bar gauge below the miles to empty number)? And, do you really want to run it down to actual empty before fueling?

  16. Safety Sense & Automatic Car Wash?

    I think what the OP wants is to disable the collision avoidance system so that it won't hit the brakes in the middle of the car wash. I think that would be the Pre-Collision Braking System. From the manual it looks like the truck has to be moving at 3 or more MPH for that to be active. I would...
  17. ARB Soft Shackle - Save a $

    I think he's suggesting that you can forgo buying the recovery points and just get some soft shackles. The hitch frame is nicely rounded near the ends. However, there are some flat plates welded to it near there that are rather sharp and could cut the shackles if they slide much. I'm planning...
  18. Gas Milage

    Find yourself 100 miles or so of highway where the speed limit runs 45-65 and no more. Let adaptive cruise control take care of the speed and pick a day where you won't be bogged down in traffic and do a "there and back" trip. See what you get from that. I've been getting 25+ mpg under those...
  19. Range vs MPG

    The "miles to empty" apparently has a 2-3 gallon buffer for people who have no common sense and won't fill up until they are coasting into a station with the engine gasping for fuel.
