  2. TRAILHUNTER won't sell?

    my local dealer has a $6995.00 mark up on the TH and supposedly two are sold. of course there is no way of telling if the buyer paid the markup or how much of the mark up. I thought I saw a $10,000 markup on a TH at this dealer. They also mark up the 4Runner TH/Pro the same amount.
  3. Fuel mileage; Tuning I-Force max hybrid.

    last two 16.3 and 16.0. all city driving. lives outside. when I'm home I plug in the block heater. night temps go as low as -9F and highs up to upper 20F's. lots of slippery roads running AT tires which don't do too well for winter traction.
  4. STILLEN Air Intake Box & Dyno Results for 2024 Tacoma

    as far as I can tell. I don't drive it much. I might install the stillen again and see what happens, but might be a few months.

  7. The Motor Oil Geek's recommended engine break-in & oil change frequency + oil analysis on the factory engine oil (2024+Tacoma 4th gen)

    I have used his video's to do some engine maintenance on the V6 in the RAV4 we had, and how to change the transmission fluid on the 2017 hybrid RAV4. His tutorials are excellent.
  8. "The Truth About Oil Change Intervals"

    the car care nut recommends 5k minimum oil changes. he claims that Toyota engines start to burn oil when the engine gets over 100k or more due to owners following Toyota recommended oil changes at 10k. He says that that is too long and causes the rings to start sticking due to "old" oil. He...
  9. The Motor Oil Geek's recommended engine break-in & oil change frequency + oil analysis on the factory engine oil (2024+Tacoma 4th gen)

    I think it might have been the car care nut that said this. One would need to watch it again to understand his point he makes. Was surprising to me too, but also makes sense. So....?
  10. Oil change interval for 2024 Tacoma 4th gen hybrid and gas engines? Synthetic or conventional engine oil?

    according to the car care nut or the oil guy, can't remember who, apparently the oil system is some how electronically or some how mechanically controlled according to the oil that Toyota specs it for. So it cannot make adjustments when using oil weights other than what is recommended, like the...
  11. The Motor Oil Geek's recommended engine break-in & oil change frequency + oil analysis on the factory engine oil (2024+Tacoma 4th gen)

    he recently posted on youtube a discussion on using 0-20 vs 5-20 or any other weights offered in different countries. Basically his take is that engines that "require" 0W-20 have the oil pump that is electrically controlled, I think he said, that it is set to work with 0W-20 and cannot adjust...
  12. Tested: Best All-Terrain A/T Tires in Snow & Ice

    its not about how fast you can go around a track, it's what kind of confidence to they give you when encountering snowy/icy/rainy conditions. I drove from Seattle area to Anchorage last February and before I left I switched to the KO3's. On the drive they did good, but I never really...
  13. Tacoma Hybrid - Disable start stop

    If you select Sport mode in the mode selector that would probable keep the engine running at all times too, but you may have to select it every time you start it again. We have a 2017 Rav 4 hybrid and this 2024 Taco hybrid. Both will shut off the engine when it thinks its the right time. If...
  14. Best value mid budget shocks

    it seems funny to me how everyone that's commented on the TRD Bilstein shocks say they are too soft. I find them too hard, interested in finding something that rides softer, but still can handle some towing duties. Don't know.
  15. Tacoma Hybrid - Disable start stop

    from my experience manual mode isn't a true manual mode. if the truck doesn't like the gear you selected it will not let you shift into that gear, which is frustrating at times, so why even offer the manual mode?
  16. Hybrid module/Transmission - New Issue Toyota hasn’t seen before

    Mine would have the rpms either stop at 2000rpm while idling down or if at idle coming to a stop idle up to 2000rpm. If I blip the throttle it would idle back down. Dropped it off at the local dealer since I was going to be out of town for two weeks. When I got back the shop foreman said that...
  17. Tacoma Hybrid - Disable start stop

    been discussed in length recently. one way is to turn tow/haul on when you come to a stop. otherwise I don't believe there is a way.
