Well I took delivery just before the 6 month point, and I think it took them that long to figure out. I have been in for service since though... My dealership just called and confirmed it is something in the front differential so they’re pulling the whole thing and replacing it. Not just the...

Great catch. I wish I could go hop in and check if it had it available… now I’m not so certain. If it did kick, what to- auto?

Yup Sheldon Brown. You can see the convo between him and TFL here: https://tfltruck.com/2024/06/video-the-real-story-behind-how-our-new-toyota-tacoma-broke-how-toyota-plans-to-fix-yours/

It took them all day to figure out that it’s “something with the front differential, our foreman is calling Toyota”. Will post another update next time there is one.

The way he was talking about it, it was going to be done at a regular service appointment because things have to be checked when it is installed and because of how rare/specific the issue is it didn’t come with a lot of urgency and they didn’t want to burden the customer. Personally I’d rather...

For those asking about timing… don’t know build date but took delivery in early August 2024. TFLs issue was 2/2024 and took about 6 months to resolve, and even with resolution Toyota hadn’t decided how to roll our software fix. It’s such a specific issue that I think it was low priority (as...

No I think you make a fair point. I’d rather get my truck taken care of than stick it to the man. It’s too bad it is that as consumers we fear Toyota scouring the internet for an excuse to not cover what has been deemed a defect by their chief engineer, but I just want my truck to work it’s...

lol yeah I mean remove evidence of what? I can’t imagine the video would count against me with Toyota, I was expecting to show it to them. License plate?

Yes! It is odd and shouldn’t happen, but the software part does make sense. Rear wheels spinning so ABS clamps down sending torque to front, one of those wheels spins so abs clamps down sending all torque to one front wheel which makes the ADD piece snap. Still, I wasn’t exactly “sending it” lol

What do you mean about socials?

If you’re up to speed on the TFL truck that broke and what the issue was, this seems to be the same thing. See video, at about 30 seconds you can see my front wheels lose power and hear what I believe to be the ADD break. I’m going in for a “diagnostic” appointment at Toyota tomorrow… which...

I have the double cab long bed off road, on which I installed the SyneticUSA retractable bed cover. I’m trying to think of a good way to carry a full size spare without adding length to the truck with a hitch mount. I don’t have a roof rack, but putting a spare up there would make my truck...

Have you guys been receiving these? Ordered mine 8 days ago and nothing…

First snow of the year in CO, back in November. Handled great, even hitting 4LO to make it up a steep unpaved driveway with 10-12 inch drifts. Curious when you guys switch to 4x4, particularly when driving in town on roads that are clear in some areas and icy in others (common in CO where the...

What are those smoked out tail lights? They look good

My input would be to forego the phone mount given the existence of CarPlay and an integrated wireless charging stand. I don’t think that many people are also relying on a phone mount, and the drawbacks would keep someone (like myself) from buying your product. just my two cents.

So I ended up getting it. Nice piece. Went to install it though and the latches on my tonneau cover interfere with the mounting brackets. I have a retractable cover, so it didn’t matter where on the rail I positioned it it was a no go. For anyone wondering, I have the SynetifUSA retractable...

Is the divider actual Molle? I'm looking to use it as a mount for various things - I know bags/pouches will be fine because they are cloth and adjustable. But something like quick fists, has anyone tried that? I think this is preferable to the molle panels because then I won't have to drill into...

I'm deciding on the bed divider and have two things giving me pause, hoping someone here can answer 1. Will this fit under a retractable tonneau cover? I have the syneticusa cover on. In other words, how high does this stick up above the bed rails? Some pictures show the hand knob on top, others...
