What’s up, Taco fam —
I just dropped a new video on the 2025 Toyota Tacoma Trailhunter, and if you think you’ve already seen it all... think again.
This isn’t just a review — it’s a full feature breakdown, night ops lighting demo, and a deep dive into the hidden Easter eggs Toyota slipped into this beast. I’m talking stuff you won’t find in the brochure.

NIGHT OPS: Trailhunter Lighting Like You’ve Never Seen
DAY MODE: Power & Performance Features
EASTER EGGS (Yes, they’re real):
More Factory Goodies:

Don’t forget to check out my Aux Lighting Playlist while you’re there.
I’m dropping new content weekly — hidden features, mod installs, overland setups — all focused on building smarter, more capable Tacomas.
Would love to hear if you all have spotted any other Easter eggs or factory tricks I didn’t catch. Let’s crowdsource the secrets Toyota won’t talk about
Catch you on the trail,
