    Things I DON’T like about my Tacoma

    Yup, I'll have to agree with "soft paint." While removing the rear bed decals with a soft nylon tool, I dug into the paint slightly....Damn it.

    3rd Gen Factory Accessories Worth Getting

    I'm real happy with the OEM bed mat...tried other brands on various vehicles but the Toyota mat seems to fit better and is somewhat heavier. Tonneau covers, I went with "Undercover Elite " series and am very pleased with the quality, fit and design. Somewhat pricey buy I keep my vehicles for a...

    Vent visors for 2016 Tacoma

    Posted this in another thread but couldn't find it and anyway I wanted to add a pic....One (1) set of AVS vent shades for a 2017 Tacoma double cab. Installed them but didn't like the way they looked. Always had the "standard " shades that were not in-channel. These are factory color matched...

    What is Toyota thinking?

    Had the somewhat under powered feel with the engine, the "can't find the right gear" transmission problem and screwed up "eco mode" readings that showed MPG's of 14.2 - 15.5. Also had a couple of "surges" while idling in the driveway, in gear and foot on the brake. Has about 1700 miles on now...

    Erratic mpg

    Here's an update on my mpg's...Still haven't had to fill up, just a little under a half tank so don't know the "real" mileage yet however, the ECO gauges show in town 16.8 consistently. Both the "tank average" and the "current" average and are usually within one tenth of a mile. Service tech...

    New Tacoma Owner - '17 TRD Sport

    I'll have to agree with the "under powered" aspect although, I didn't buy the Tacoma for power and really don't need any more than it provides. I had an '07 RCSB with the 5.7 for 10 years and never used or had to utilize all the power it turned out (except when I was "playing"). Yup, the tranny...

    Erratic mpg

    Only have about 1400 miles but the average mpg according to the readout over the steering column was about 16. Mostly in town driving. The display on the entune read high 17.2 and average 14.6. Not very pleased with that at all so talked to the service tech's and they sail to check it the "old...
