No, but apparently some dealers don't care when you get your 2 free oil changes. I'm planning to have the dealer do the first one at 5000. If I have to pay for it, I will. Will probably do one myself at 15k.

Lucky is right. When I moved and cleaned out my garage it cost me 2 tires.

That would be a big selling point for me, but that panel looks awful small. I don't suppose anyone has done that yet to see if it works out well.

Looks like a screw for a metal or fiberglass roofing panel except it's got sheet-metal threads. Check any place where flexible materials are screwed to the body (wheel well liner, mud flaps, etc). I don't see any screws with the rubber cushion, but I haven't crawled under mine yet.

I think thermal cycling would be getting the engine fully warmed up, then shutting down until it cools. I doubt that running the heat cools the engine significantly.

I'm planning to do the same.

As WKTJR1 said, don't lose any sleep over it. Nothing's going to fall apart. Lots of people do the same thing (most people, and pretty much ALL salespeople have no clue about things like this anymore). I don't think it's nearly the issue it was back in dinosaur days when some of us were...

From what I'm seeing here and at Tacoma world you might want to spend the first three or four hours doing short 10-20 mile runs at varying speeds, then taking a break to allow cooling down. Some comments claimed that the first hundred miles could make the difference between living with a...

Just pull out a few dents, slap a little touch-up paint on, and ship it!

Or a drag race pulling trailers up a freeway on-ramp.

That's pretty much the conclusion that most came to. Near me 93 octane is 17% more expensive than regular. 21.5mpg is only 7.5% better than 20mpg so it's definitely not a cost savings. I tried premium in my 2013 Pre-Runner 4-cylinder to see if it got more power (was getting tired going up grades...

There's a thread over at Tacomaworld on this. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/trying-different-grades-of-fuel-on-4th-gen.836505/ One comment is that 93 octane gets them 1.5mpg more.

Like this: Sorry, just couldn't resist:)

What's the make and model of that camper shell?

I'm guessing you mean ones under the rear axle and under the frame to the rear of the front wheels. There are also 2 high lift jacking points under the back bumper though I'm not sure if they are on all models. For the front, I'm hoping I can find some recovery points that could double as high...

This is going to annoy the bejeesus out of me when I get mine (end of July). The gas gauge on my 2013 is spot on. If I fill up when it says quarter tank, it takes ~16 gallons. It's going to take a lot of retraining for me to let it go down to the "low fuel" warning before filling up. I wonder if...

Some people claim that there is as much as 4 gallons of fuel left, but I'd beg a gallon from someone before I headed out. Let us know how many gallons it takes to fill up afterwards.

Then you'd get a fault light because it doesn't "open". It would be nice to have a procedure to force the shutters to open (without damaging them) by the side of the road, so you aren't left stranded.

I've found that for amazon links you have to strip most of the junk off the URL. I don't recall exactly which parameter was causing the problem.
