Would LOVE to hear some stories of 2024 owners with high mileage and what issues they’ve encountered!

Probably gonna get served a plate of rocks after I say this, but I haven't had any issues with this!I'd be less worried about the drivetrain and more worried about how the paint looks in 5 years![]()
Gonna start putting pennies away for the Maaco re-spray
Underground is just really soft, maybe the other colors are better. I hand wash, foam cannon + microfibers and swirled the fk out of my paint almost instantly. It also seems to chip in flakes, at least on the door, the paint adhesion seems poor.Probably gonna get served a plate of rocks after I say this, but I haven't had any issues with this!
Odd. Yea, all of the "orange peel" on my truck is in places you would expect a manufacturer to place it for rock chip prevention and durability.Underground is just really soft, maybe the other colors are better.

The hood and fenders are visibly painted different than the rest of the truck. The hood actually has the best finish of the whole truck to be honest, considerably less orange peel. Just seems very inconsistent.
Yeah chip guard is normal, I have that too, it's just that the entire truck is orange peel pretty muchOdd. Yea, all of the "orange peel" on my truck is in places you would expect a manufacturer to place it for rock chip prevention and durability.

Dude I'm sorry! That's a bummer. Toyota should fix that s#*tYeah chip guard is normal, I have that too, it's just that the entire truck is orange peel pretty much![]()
To be fair I have been watching these guys swap their trucks out bc of paint issues, and I can't help but think if you got a decent rig the first time, you should probably hang onto it.Dude I'm sorry! That's a bummer. Toyota should fix that s#*t
