Well as far as I'm concerned anyone can say whatever they want on a forum. I've given up a long time ago being offended or caring if I offend anyone for that matter. The whole country has become far too sensitive. I learned that when I transitioned from 24 years in the military to a civilian...
Yes but he never mentioned a Race in it at all. So I don't know what that disclaimer was all about. He mentioned age, occupation, economic status, colors, nationalities, state residents, but not one mention of Race.
Between this review and my test drive, I was sold on the Tacoma. I did 1 1/2 year research of ALL the small and mid size trucks before I bought. And as far as transmissions go, I don't even know it's there. It's very smooth and no hunting for gears. Also keep in mind that the SR has 50...

1. OEM tube side steps (cuts down on door dings in parking lots and keeps rocks from hitting the bedsides
2. Installed the three parts to make the tailgate dampened
3. Put on takeoff 18" OEM wheels and got rid of those fugly 17" silver Pep Boy's specials the factory put on
Tint was installed at...
Was this your first time at a dealership (of any brand)? Let corporate know. That way you'll discover if corporate really cares or not about their customers. Some brands do, some don't. I bought a Hyundai once back in 2009. Car was missing the rear package cover. Dealership admitted it was...
I keep the spare hard key in a magnetic key box hidden somewhere on the outside of the truck and the spare FOB hidden inside the truck. Low tech is the quickest and most reliable.
I also have "Down-Trimmed" in recent years. I've had vehicles with all the doo dads and I've found they are just not worth the bucks plus the lower trims seem more comfortable to me.
Thanks to anti-consumer, pro government meddling regulations that on one hand require pie in the sky "I just pulled a number out my butt" mpg standards that necessitate lighter vehicles and the contradictory regulations requiring a lot of weight be added with mandated nanny systems, no...
That sounds like a good idea. I would spray some Armor All or the like on them so they don't stick to the tire when you drop the tire. Lacking that maybe some type of non absorbent foam material.
Every truck I've owned of any brand with underbed spare has left marks of some shape on the spare tire. I suppose placing a cushioning material between those friction points would prevent that.
Never heard of that before. I've been using Rain-X since it was invented decades ago and never had a problem with it. Works great. Back in the 1980s I had to travel from AZ to MS. A storm followed me the whole way. Heavy rain. Everyone I saw had their wipers going on high and sticking their...
I agree they make the throttle respond as it should have been from the start. But I'm wondering if anyone who has ever used any brand of these devices has noticed increased downshifting. I once put a Pedal Commander on my Challenger and set it to a high position. Drove it for a while and not...
Well since we're throwing dealer's names out there. I did my usual extensive research with reviews and such before I bought. I drove 150 miles away to Avondale Toyota (Phoenix suburb). Why? NO preloads (add ons). None, zip, nada. Discounted price. Business model-you deal with one person through...
I went to the dealer and got them yesterday. They wanted $30 for the pair. I mentioned they are $20 online on their web site so he knocked 20% off. The parts guy was not familiar with the part numbers I supplied and muttered something about not looking like they were in stock when he was on the...
Money. That's the reason dealers put all sorts of these devices on cars. The sales pitch these device makers give to the dealers is that they can track their inventory. Plus some of these devices track your mileage so the dealership can get notified when you need service and then just happen to...
I wanted custom colors (Black and Tan for my truck and Black and White for my Challenger) and you have to order from their site for that. Amazon just has the standard pre-made popular color combos. Another weird thing about their site was after the first attempt the cart still had the items but...
I heard it was better through Amazon but I want to customize the colors (Black and Tan for my truck and Black and White for my Challenger) and you can only do that through their site.
Anyone have problems with these guys? I just tried ordering a set of leather covers for both my vehicles and the first set I tried to order I filled out all the checkout info, hit the red Order Now button and nothing happened. I waited a while then hit the button again (it was black then) and...
