  1. SmartCap EVO Bed Cap installed on 2024 Tacoma TRD Off-Road

    ft-lb x 12 = in-lb. Looks like your wrench is minimum 3.7 ft-lb so you should be ok if that's where you set it. I didn't see any available near me that went that low in ft-lb so I did an in-lb wrench.
  2. SmartCap EVO Bed Cap for 2024 Tacoma (5' and 6' Bed)

    Definitely takes 2 people. And you do want the correct torque wrench so that you don't over-tighten everything. Took about 3 hours to assemble.
  3. SmartCap EVO Bed Cap for 2024 Tacoma (5' and 6' Bed)

    On and bolted down. Unfortunately, they were out of wiring harnesses so I couldn't hook up the brake light yet.
  4. SmartCap EVO Bed Cap installed on 2024 Tacoma TRD Off-Road

    I put mine together yesterday. Picked up a 20-200 inch-pound torque wrench from O'Reily's Auto Parts because my existing in-lb wrench didn't go low enough. (Am now the proud owner of 5 torque wrenches). Today's tasks are to get the gasket on and mount it on the truck. Unfortunately, they were...
  5. I want MPGs BY TANK to display, can’t figure it out?

    There's a bar meter under the DTE number. On mine it has been fairly accurate (fill up at quarter-tank is ~13.5 gal). I just treat the DTE as entertainment. Wouldn't mind if there were a way to hide it. Maybe a piece of black tape?? I do miss the dial gauge on my 2013. The graduations were 1...
  6. SR5 4x4 with 18" TRD OR wheels 265/70's - Upgrade spare?

    Odd, my OR has 17-inch wheels (265/70 R17 tires). You can play around with sizes here: https://tiresize.com/calculator/
  7. SmartCap EVO Bed Cap for 2024 Tacoma (5' and 6' Bed)

    Looks a bit pricey. I'm going to be looking for (or making) a bug screen for the side windows so that I can leave one open at night.
  8. Real-Life MPG Thread - Share Your 2024+ Tacoma 4th Gen's Gas Mileage! â›˝

    Finally did a run to visit my children. Round trip of 1,081 mi. 1/3 country highways in mountains (Show Low AZ to Phoenix via Globe). The rest interstate (I10 from Phoenix to Riverside CA) averaged 23.5 mpg. My 2016 Prerunner 4-cylinder used to get around 20.9. Now for the fun part. Had the...
  9. SmartCap EVO Bed Cap for 2024 Tacoma (5' and 6' Bed)

    The 6' EVO Sports just started shipping. Mine comes Thursday. Crossing my fingers that it doesn't have shipping damage.

  11. Toyota Extra Care Platinum Warranty Prices

    Check with the online dealers before canceling. I recall seeing somewhere that non-CA dealers can't sell a VSA in CA.
  12. Anyone else having trouble with mpg rates?

    Yes. It's in the settings for the instrument display. Here's an overview of how to make changes. There is a "fuel economy" setting which controls whether to use average since reset or average for trip. There is an acceleration setting for the cruise control with high/mid/low.
  13. Fender Whoops..............

    Loctite and JB Weld both have epoxy glues designed for plastics. Loctite also has a 2-component superglue for plastics. I've used the Loctite epoxy, and it worked well, but it wasn't in a high stress application.
  14. Anyone else having trouble with mpg rates?

    And have you done a manual calculation or are you just looking at the computed value on the display?
  15. Anyone else having trouble with mpg rates?

    Don't know what to tell you. I was shocked the first time I checked the actual fill-up to fill-up mileage because it was on a 130+ mile run in the mountains with lots of up and down grades. I was expecting 20 or less MPG. If you have somewhere that fits, try this. Find a 60 mile or so stretch of...
  16. Anyone else having trouble with mpg rates?

    From what I've seen so far (have about 2400 mi), speed has everything to do with it. Stop and go traffic may also have a major impact but I don't get into that much. I get 25+ mpg (measured from fuel fill-up) on country highways through mountainous terrain. Elevation changes average out (some...
  17. Scout Pickup Reveal Coming 10/24/24

    Got a little exited when I read about this a while back. Until I saw the dreaded "EV".
