    BRAKE SERVICE - ADVICE NEEDED

    Just learn for our Tacoma and for off roading the solid rotors will perform better. I will stay with factory OME rotors and maybe the ceramic brake pads.. Brake rotors and pads so much easier to change…I find it a bit more difficult to work on drum brakes.. 2024 Tacomas will have all 4 wheels...

    Oil change question

    Please be aware, not all synthetic oils are the same. There are 3 grades of synthetic oils. The way I describe them is by the length to replace the synthetic oils. For instance Mobil synthetic oils, if it says replace every 7,500 miles , this is a grade 3, If replace every 15,000 miles this...

    Stock Taco goes everywhere

    LB too , I found most trails , a stock truck works just fine, where I go, 5-10% of the road ways , better to have a lift and more aggressive tires. because of my long bed , I added this trailer hitch skid plate from Supreme Suspension. Worth it. To protect the bumper.

    Does your crawl control work ?

    At least once a month , use the crawl controls, rear locker -under 5 miles per hour, engage the 4-H and 4L. Every month. And the anti-slip button too. Find a dirt or sandy , or gravel road. If not “grass” land. Or one day it may not engage. As they say use-it or lose-it.

    Potential new Taco owner...

    Don’t lift it or add bigger tires. If only two wheel drive. If you want a Pre-runner type truck? Make sure you get a locking diff?

    Thinking of trading in

    I hear the 2015 Tacoma is a very good year. If you are going to buy a 2021 which is very highly rated. Please consider a Tacoma with the “Crawl control”. I think think the TRD Off road and PRO? or make sure you get a Tacoma with the Locking diff.
