Heritage Blue. A timeless color that won't wear off.

Those gaps are there to allow proper ventilation of the engine compartment. Not only does blocking them retain heat but it produces a high pressure area under the hood with air blowing in but not flowing out which in turn will cause undue wear on the cooling fans trying to draw air into that...

2025 SR5 manual A/C. This drives me crazy. Does it both cold and hot engine. A/C and cooling fans cycle on for several seconds then off for several seconds constantly. Has to be excessive wear on compressor and cooling fan motors to be doing this. OP did you ever ask the dealer. I live an hour...

When I bought this truck I noticed that the engine was much quieter than the other SR5 and the Sport I test drove before buying this one. So yesterday I popped the hood to see if the A/C short cycles when the engine is cold like it does when hot and suddenly at idle there was a sound I've never...

The problem with MT or C&D or any "professional" reviewer is that they have their own personal likes and dislikes and they test a particular trim when the things they judge a vehicle on could be drastically different from trim to trim. I drove both the Ranger and Tacoma before buying. They say...

The guy who screwed up your Toyota today may well be screwing up Chevys tomorrow (not that Chevys...

Which is exactly why I left as soon as I could.

The problem is the pay system. They get paid predetermined hours depending on each individual task. They like big jobs because if it pays 50 hours and they can cut corners or if they are one of the few good ones and can get it done in 30 hours, they still get paid the 50 hours. That's the...

After having worked at a dealership for five years, trust me. If anything, management will care even less then the so called "tech". They know there's plenty of fish in the sea so if you tell them you'll never do business there again, they'll just yawn and all they care about is how much money...
