I still don't have mine, in spite of putting a deposit down in May 2023. Can I get some sympathy mats? :LOL:

Likely based on risk analysis. There's no requirement to issue a recall if it's not a safety issue, and as long as the likelihood of a failure is below a certain threshold, it's in their best interest to just repair the ones that break rather than intervene proactively.

It pains me seeing the rod held in a vise like that. Aluminum jaws on the vise would be wise.

No hybrids affected? That's interesting.

Block heater is a dealer-installed option, so it can definitely accommodate it. Most in Canada come with it standard.

This is all that is in the owner's manual. There is no wading depth specified:

In fairness, EPA also doesn't look at a full tank mileage or over the life of the vehicle. They use trip mileage, but have a defined trip (ie. speed, acceleration rate, distance traveled, etc). They are just doing a relatively short trip, but eliminating a number of variables so that they can...

I thought we were waiting for an all-new Toyota Scout; not a small company electrifying an old chassis.

2025 Tundra info dropped the other day, so I am wondering if Tacoma info will come out soon. I still don't even have a build date on mine, so kinda hoping it ends up being MY2025 at this point.

My experience is limited to Weathertech, and while I find their coverage pretty good, I hate the lack of grip. When it's snowy out and you get in your vehicle with snowy boots/shoes, it's really frustrating when they just slide around like crazy on the mat. Also, a lot of salt on our roads in...

I think this just sold me on dedicated winters. I don't want to get by in the winter; I want good winter performance.

I've been debating this recently too. I have been assuming that I will opt for dedicated winters on the OEM wheels (when primary duty is commuting in town), and then switch to all-terrains for summer and shoulder seasons, where On/Off-road mixed driving is expected. But I haven't really...

That warranty is wild! Sounds like you got a pretty good deal!

Seems generally the Canadians are getting better mileage, but I think that's because most of our highways are 100km/h or maybe 110km/h which is much closer to what the EPA uses for mileage ratings (IIRC they do a few stints accelerating up to 55mph). Not many people ripping across country at...

Not only that, but because Toyota is using the same 1.87kWh NiMH pack in so many vehicles, I expect it to attract battery recyclers, so there should be some good options for cheaper replacements in the future. Wouldn't be surprised if someone even developed a lithium replacement for reduced...

Still waiting on mine, but going with hybrid. I'm tired of new 4cyl turbo vehicles having that off-the-line lag, and even though it's fairly minimal on the gas model, I want it to not exist. I'm also expecting the hybrid to tow very smoothly, and I like that although the hybrid doesn't see a...

I'm planning to just get the OEM bed mat because it's a pretty cost effective way to add durability and grip. The spray-on bedliners are pretty decent, but I've seen some chip/flake off over time, and it's a bit pricier. I'm also planning on getting the OEM hard tonneau cover based on some...

Welp. I am still waiting for news on my allocation. I have called around all over AB/SK/MB and have found a few black and solar octane TRD OR Premium iForceMAX, but no white. It seems like Toyota is producing the Canadian models in very small batches, one colour at a time. At this point, I'm...

Follow up: Just found this thread. Seems to be what you're looking for ;)

I recently learned about Krave here in Calgary. They seem to have a lot of parts available, and they've got a shop too. They seem to be a bunch of folks that are really into overlanding and off-roading, so they should be quite knowledgeable on the parts they sell! The Gear Shop seems to have a...
