Anyone here running extended wheel studs? I just received a set of wheels I ordered and am somewhat unsatisfied with the level of thread engagement I have with a set of conical lug nuts. Unfortunately, the wheels won't accept an ET lug nut, so I feel like the only option available is to swap...

The Icon springs are actually softer than stock, according to the folks over there. I'm also interested in stiffer rear springs / sumo / bags for towing purposes, and had asked them what the spring rate is, as they advertise them as "triple rate", so I guess they're progressive? Anyways, they...

What MPG were you getting pulling that trailer at 75? I have a 4000# TT and I was getting around 15-16 going 65 or so. 75 probably a little too fast for my taste pulling a load like that, but curious nonetheless.

I did the non-stance as well. I was on the fence for the stance as I didn't want to glue the mounts on the roof... But once you get your roof rack in, post some pics as I'm curious how you will mount the anchors to it. It's pretty lightweight so I figured if I know I need the whole bed I'll...

Thanks for posting these pics. I'm also between a 285/65R18 or 265/70R18 (same diameter) on some wheels I have coming in (18x8 +32). Probably at least another 2-3 weeks while I wait on my wheels that I purchased from Japan. I was originally leaning towards the 285s but also don't want too much...

That's an interesting solution, but this seems like more of a workaround. I'll give it a go next time see how it works. Nonetheless, I took a look through the manual and it even states the steering wheel needs to be firmly gripped. Just seems a lot different than other Toyota implementations of...

Not sure if this can really be classified as an issue - but anyone else here with lane trace assist cruise control notice you need to literally keep an iron grip on the steering wheel for it not to beep at you (basically the truck telling you to keep your hands on the wheel)? I've driven...

How is the wind noise at highway speeds?

You're right, that is the correct one for the full kit. However, I believe it doesn't come with the actual receiver antennas according to the manual... The part I listed above is just some assembly for the power cable options according to the manual - but it's odd as it shows as the full kit on...

Has anyone here messed around with the Wireless Camera System for the new Tacoma? Specifically models equipped with the digital rearview mirror. There were some posts on the Tundra forum about this, but I haven't seen anyone mention it on the Taco side yet. Toyota part search shows the...

Think a lot of it is dependant on location. Here in Chicago, trucks are not a super popular option. Most buyers are getting them for commercial purposes only. Further out in the suburbs, they tend to sell a bit better. Regardless of the size of the pickup, our annual window sticker is like ~$230...

$54,495. Only options were AVS, wheel locks, and the premium paint charge. Yeah, was surprised as well. Ended up getting the truck for $51.6k.

While I haven't seen dyno figures, you have to just put 2&2 together. The HP difference is 30, but the GM truck makes over a 100 more lb-ft of torque. That torque comes higher and tapers off quickly, given the HP numbers. Per specs peak torque comes at 3000 rpm and starts dropping off at 3800...

Yeah, half-tons are sitting on lots everywhere and all the manufacturers, even Toyota to a certain degree, are flanking them with support to move them. I really considered it, given how steep discounts are, but all of the half-tons are so large now. Just didn't see a need for a truck that big...

Hah, well, it was a lease. I did a 2YR/12K mile deal on that one, and the calculated residual from Toyota was 83%. Needless to say, since no one really wanted a 6MT Taco (at least where I live), the dealership gave me about 10% off MSRP. The truck was around 37K and some change, I got it for 34K...

Hi All, After a lot of contemplation, settled on a Limited in Wind Chill Pearl. Just picked it up today! I'm not an avid off-roader, and preferred to have something with more creature comforts than a locker I'd solemnly, if ever, use. Not my first Taco - previously owned an '18 TRD OR with a...
