When tailgate access first was discussed I tested my truck. If the truck was locked and the fob was in range you could operate the tailgate. But when I moved the fob out of range the tailgate didn't open. I never tested the case where the truck is unlocked and the fob is out of range. Now I...

Now that you mention that @PanAmericano I think I lost a setting that I had selected because I didn't do what you suggest. The manual is not at all clear on how that menu works, at least not to me.

Yeah, I like part too. Does what you need without changing the look of the front end too much.

Man, you do have it rough, although white is a great color on the Pro. Of course I might trade a couple of left body parts for that 718 GTS. :)

What about this from Cali Raised? https://www.tacoma4g.com/forum/threads/2024-tacoma-stealth-bumper-by-cali-raised-led.10373/

All the colors would have worked for me, but once I saw Terra I fell in love. It was pure luck that my dealer got a 2024 Pro allocation and incredible luck that it was Terra. What color is your Pro? Encased in ice it is hard to tell. lol

Great video and thanks for the detective work. A fairly easy fix might be to roll our own replacement passive center speaker that fits in the JBL speaker dock. Or maybe someone will make a speaker that just replaces the dock with a much better sounding passive speaker. It is always hard to...

Yeah - that is not unusual. If there is any front axle binding from when it was in 4WD it will clunk as it disengages the transfer case. Sometimes it helps to drive a short distance with the wheels straight before stopping and moving out of 4WD. Being stopped can help too, but not always.

And for my driving style it doesn't really save me any gas anyway.

The bed mat is essential in an SMC truck bed because they are very slippery. I always get the Toyota mats because they are of very high quality and reasonably priced. The spray in liner is a nice upgrade, but years of doing real truck jobs out of SMC beds tells me that any type of liner is...

I never tried to get mine into EV mode - not sure if it is even possible. Any time the ICE is off and you are under 20 mph it emits that presence sound, which in the US is required by the government.

Yeah - I got tired of waiting and bought the Canadian ones from Toyota. Not the coverage of the RokBlokz but good enough for now and a whole lot less expensive.

When my truck's engine is warm and I am not accelerating hard it runs just below the middle. It is normal for it to vary some based on the oil and the temperature, so I would not worry about it.

I set the rear to 12 o'clock, which was Beat Sonics recommendation. I probably should have turned it down further to mute my truck's whining. lol

Yeah, a low priority no doubt and developers are not in charge of what gets fixed and when. Looking at some other long running issues with Toyota trucks it actually might never get fixed.

You are like me David because we have not bought new trucks in a long time. This stuff hit us all at once and it can be a slog, and this is from someone who works in tech. Just don't worry about it, or expect it to happen fast. As you discover things figure them out or just ask us. Then do it...

My first thought is that these engines have two fuel injection systems, port and direct. In some situations they use one or the other and sometimes both. So that might be why you hear different sound levels sometimes and not at others. These are noisy engines and Toyota should have put hood...

That is true for my truck too. Maybe Toyota will eventually update Eco so that it is more effective. People use it thinking it will increase mileage when it actually decreases it in many cases.

I have used Sparks Toyota many times and can recommend them. I was able to buy the Canadian flaps from my dealer and they had them in one day and without shipping the price was pretty much a wash.

Mine has been pretty low too, but as I hit 2k miles it has improved. Today a freeway run at speeds between 70-80 mph got me 20.8, which is a new record. That is on winter blended fuel too, so I think it is turning around from the 14-17 mpg I was getting.
