Things like this is why I laugh out loud whenever I question a dealerships quality before I become a customer and the service department proudly states we have ASE certified techs (monkeys).

People still do jumper cables? I've been carrying a jumper box for decades. Don't need another vehicle to get a jump and if you want to help someone else you don't have to risk today's fragile electronics by using your vehicle as a donor. Other than that pretty much a complete set of tools...

All 2WD gas have it except for manual trans. 4WD gas do not. I assume the half gas / half golf cart Tacoma's do not have it.

The 2WD auto trans have start stop. 4WD and manual trans do not. Simple as that. I bought the disable device. Two minute install.

What was your mileage before the tire change? Is your SR5 4wd? My 2wd SR5 with stock tires gets 26-27 combined. I've been looking at getting aftermarket wheels and going with 265 tires.

I regret not getting the front end covered the day I bought it. But I didn't think it would be that necessary until I noticed I had a couple chips with just 20 miles on it at time of sale and a couple more shortly after. I also was astounded when I tapped, not hit but mildly tapped the corner of...

Carry a set of OEM lug nuts in case you need the spare. The aftermarket will not seat properly and you'll be in big trouble. Pull an aftermarket nut off a wheel and compare the seating angle with an OEM one. You'll see the difference. They won't secure the OEM wheel. The diameter of the...

Yes I just watched a review online of a guy who had the same customer service response problems as you did. Also found that a lot of buyers get their shipment with missing pieces. I had that happen with another company on a Ram I had so I sent the cover back the next day. That company of course...

I've read some posts from last year about fitment issues with the MX4 but apparently they may have been updated. Has anyone installed them lately with any problems?

My dealer is offering the anti-UFO coating.

Traded a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited. Excellent engine and trans, comfortable ride but the seats were torture and I really hated the two batteries under the passenger seat. I researched all the mid size and compact trucks for almost two years before discounting everything but the Ranger...

Here's the installation instructions I found online. I put a set of OEM prepainted one's on my truck. Looks good. Mine fit perfectly and no gaps. Follow the prep instructions and it comes out great. https://toyotaparts.sparkstoyota.com/install/PT29A-35240inst.pdf

I was going to get a 4x4 but since the only "off roading" I do is some dirt roads I opted for the 2WD. That 4x4 drive train must be hell on gas mileage. My usual driving is half city (AZ city not NY city) and half on a 60 mph highway. My average is 27+ mpg combined. When I fill up my DTE reads 400.

This is my biggest pet peeve with dealerships. I research, regardless of brand, to find a dealership that doesn't splice in aftermarket crap. Some of these units are plug and play but many are not. I consider splicing into brand new car wiring as damage and I tell them so. I'm there to buy a new...

Heritage Blue. A timeless color that won't wear off.

Those gaps are there to allow proper ventilation of the engine compartment. Not only does blocking them retain heat but it produces a high pressure area under the hood with air blowing in but not flowing out which in turn will cause undue wear on the cooling fans trying to draw air into that...

2025 SR5 manual A/C. This drives me crazy. Does it both cold and hot engine. A/C and cooling fans cycle on for several seconds then off for several seconds constantly. Has to be excessive wear on compressor and cooling fan motors to be doing this. OP did you ever ask the dealer. I live an hour...

When I bought this truck I noticed that the engine was much quieter than the other SR5 and the Sport I test drove before buying this one. So yesterday I popped the hood to see if the A/C short cycles when the engine is cold like it does when hot and suddenly at idle there was a sound I've never...

The problem with MT or C&D or any "professional" reviewer is that they have their own personal likes and dislikes and they test a particular trim when the things they judge a vehicle on could be drastically different from trim to trim. I drove both the Ranger and Tacoma before buying. They say...

I'm happy with my mileage. SR5 2WD, stupid air dam removed and running premium gas. Rated at 21/26. I'm getting 26+ combined with A/C on and before I was using A/C I was getting 28+ combined. Mileage did improve with premium gas and the truck felt and sounded much better when flooring it to pass...
