I would make Toyota replace that with something that actually works if it were me. It's not like you bought the bargain version Taco. It takes a lot of balls to advertise the TH as the ultimate overlander, and then have the snorkel come loose if your big bad trucks hits a branch. That is lame.

Yeah, looks like a rear main to me, and your Tacoma isn't the only one. But it is a straightforward repair and parts should be available, so there should be very little down time. Please let us know how this turns out.

I can understand that! Those tires look great on your OR and should make it even better off road. Good choice.

I know of at least one TRD Pro that is also on QC hold. It might be something with the hybrid powertrain.

@Wighty So it was definitely way too much positive camber in the front, as it appeared. That will save you some front tire wear. Another good thing to know about and check on a new TRD Pro.

I don't think we know enough at this point to know how wide spread this is, but not all 4th gen Tacos have this problem, just some trucks assembled at Guanajuato. If you haven't seen any water so far then you probably got lucky and don't have this problem.

No necessarily. It depends on the size of the leak. Not all of them have been bad enough to flood the floor and make it obvious. A blue towel looks different when it is wet and is a great idea for finding if the leak is there or not. I know I will be taking some with me and test driving it...

@skunion1987 nice to see Toyota taking care of it's own. :) You're right - the probably treat the rest of us even worse. Interesting that you know the problem with the crash bar assembly. So it does sound like assembly error at that plant. It also sounds like they might still be building...

Totally agree. I have dealt with great Toyota dealers and some really slimy ones. It sounds like @Tracy is going to one of the bad ones to me. If there are any other Toyota dealers in your area I would recommend going to one of them. This dealer put sealant on an expensive, new truck and called...

Congrats - that is a really nice looking truck. I like the Rivian but I would never own two electric vehicles because of the reasons you decided against the Rivian. So yeah, I agree that was a good choice. My wife has an electric suv. It is a beautiful car, fun to drive and loaded with luxury...

I think they are my top choice too, although I will bash the Goodyear Territory tires for a while, particularly until I know the front end is sorted. I have heard nothing but good about the KO3s, better even than the KO2s.

No, most factory truck tires don't usually last all that long either. I guess if the front end eats the OEM tires and we get the alignment sorted out, it will be kinder to the Grapplers or KO3s that we put on next. I always thought that was kind of a feature, because I almost never would have...

Disclaimer: I am far from being a suspension expert. I can't find camber specs for a 2024 TRD Pro. The best I could do was find the specs for a 2023. The front camber range was between -0.3 and +0.8 degrees. So some positive camber is allowed but I am also guessing that @Wighty's truck is more...

Still waiting on my Pro but most of the pictures that I have seen show positive camber like yours. I assumed that was on purpose, but maybe they all need an alignment.

Love the look of your leather seats. Good call IMO on a pro install.

I see the OR and Pro as two different approaches to getting a great off road truck. Buy the Pro and you are done right out of the box, with very little to add. But the OR and upgrade it with the hardware of your choice and you can get to more or less the same place. I think the prices will be...

I have seen pictures of some Tacos with the tailgate gap where you can see that one side of the bed gets wider toward the back. There is only so much tailgate and only so much adjustment, so a gap is inevitable. I agree with @Gfenza89 that is not worth worrying about, because it is a truck.

@goin2drt Not looking for an argument, and if I wasn't getting a Tacoma I would be getting a Bison. They are very, very nice trucks. The only thing my build today had that yours doesn't was an upcharge for the red (great color) that Chevy set as the default, so I can't explain the difference...

@av8r with a Chevy ZR2 Bison being a very similar truck and selling at almost the same price I don't see Toyota needing to cut prices anytime soon. Since you are waiting anyway maybe they will and you will save some money. But the average new vehicle price in the US today is just under $50k...

@goin2drt You are right about the Raptor, but I built a ZR2 Bison on the Chevy site and it came to $65,475.
