    Intermittent rattling when using the throttle while in Drive.

    I mean this only in humor, but do you work for Toyota?

    P0118 code...2006 V6 Tacoma

    I wonder if the rust in the cooling system 'tells' the sensor that the engine is overheated and prevents the engine from starting and causing more damage?

    3rd gen payoff

    Bought mine on the Toyota eye. Buying something on the eye. Let's see how many old coots are reading this and know what I mean.... On the eye (AKA IOU) predates my youth, but was a phrase that I grew up with. In one year I'll make my final (large lump) payment, when I turn 65.

    P0118 code...2006 V6 Tacoma

    Perhaps very old fuel? Not the code, the hard start that you mentioned.

    Pedal Commander, change the way you drive

    Probably a dumb question. I notice on the Pedal Commander website they mention that the unit is Bluetooth capable. Does the pedal commander come with a program that you download on your phone, or do you have to go to their website to get the program?

    Upgraded grill and pod lights

    Very nice looking truck, my second choice in colors. Are the grill lights different, or is that just a trick of camera angle?

    Warranty service on 2019 Tacoma

    I took those push pins out when I undercoated my frame when I first bought my truck. They were HARD to remove with the correct tool. Either undersized push pins or oversized holes is my guess Best of luck and keep us posted.

    Warranty service on 2019 Tacoma

    They're breaking your balls about that rubber splash shield? That's a new low. I thought you meant the wheel well trim. I would write a letter to Toyota and include the pictures. Probably the holes in the frame for the push pins are too large.

    Warranty service on 2019 Tacoma

    I wrote to Ford about the dealer saying the defects in the paint were too small and the scam with the brakes. Ford ignored the brake scam and said that the dealers have final say on the repainting of the trucks. I sold the truck six months later and that was my last Ford vehicle.

    Warranty service on 2019 Tacoma

    I had a 91 Ford pickup that was part of the paint recall. Just over 1 year old and it was missing dime and smaller size dots of paint from the hood, roof and bed rails. Brought it to my local Ford dealer after receiving the recall inspection notice from Ford. Long story short, almost two...

    Purchase 2018 TRD?

    The vertebrae in my back are only good for making soup. My back is extremely comfortable in my 2018 TRD off road. A bunch of chitt that the factory should never have let out the door bugs me, but the seats are fantastic.

    Less than poor fuel mileage

    Thank you, but no. I'm still scratching my head at the omission of the rear sway bar.

    Gas mileage

    I registered a high of 54 mpg going downhill on my trip to WV just after filling up the tank. It was about a two-mile descent in a 70 mph zone. I was doing over 80 when I hit the bottom of the hill, which leads me to wonder if the fuel mileage is calculated according to engine vacuum.....at...

    Gas mileage

    I'm not saying that the above poster did this, but I can show my truck getting 40+ mpg. Run the truck until you have about a quarter tank of gas or less. Get $5 worth of gas. This resets the mpg per tank to zero. Find a flat road with no traffic and go 40-45 mpg for about half an hour, then...

    Gas mileage

    Top tier refers to the additive package in the gasoline, not the octane rating. Think of it as cheap insurance against clogged injectors.

    Getting harder to start

    You could hook a VOM to your battery and have someone watch the meter while cranking the engine. If the voltage drops excessively, it could give you your problem. Off the top of my head, 9 volts or below is an excessive voltage drop.

    2020 Tacoma

    Hell, I would forego the hood springs and the glove compartment light for a damn dipstick for the auto trans.
