The JBL tuning guy was working from home and never actually got in a Tacoma. ;)

In short, yes. It’s normal. set your front rear balance 75% to the rear and your volume to 50 and it sounds fine. It’s just badly set from the factory.

Sorry you‘re not happy with your taco. I don’t share any of your concerns and I am very happy with mine. Perhaps you should try the competition and see if you find something you like better.

Any squeaks or rattles introduced with the new hardware?

Both my tacos are affected. Of course, no dealers have parts, but not worried. It’s easy enough to make sure mud & dirt aren’t caked up in the rear wheels. If they are, use your hose and remove it. Easy peasy.

News now saying March 1st tariffs will take effect.

I think all of us with our Taco’s feel the same way about already owning our tacos. I think there’s going to be a bit of Popcorn Theater for us as we watch how this drama Show goes down.

A Sacramento dealer GM was interviewed by the local new and he said prices would rise immediately following the enactment. Of course, he’s the head of a dealers sales, so he’s probably lying. Lol. No way of knowing until it happens.

I think the auto manufacturers will watch each other closely to see how they are reacting And what moves they start making. In the very short term, I think Toyota and dealers may absorb some of it, just to clear out current inventory. They will probably offer 0% financing as an offset to higher...
