    What did you do with your Taco today

    Renewed registration, picked up gravel, drove the out of it. Oh yeah, replaced turn signal socket.

    How often do you park beside another Tacoma….

    Yeah! There's lots of them out there. You don't even have to try.

    How has ownership of your truck been so far?

    Lack of power, miserable turning radius, that's it.

    Why do you drive a manuel transmission ?

    Well, the main reason I WISH my 2011 access cab had a stick is because if you have the 2.7 four banger, the truck has better acceleration and generally doesn't work as hard. Had an old, 72 I think? Vega four cylinder with a 2sp powerglide. You could rev it up, drop it in first, slam the throttle...

    Taller wheels/tires.

    That's what I thought. The 4 banger is a bit anemic especially running an automatic.

    Taller wheels/tires.

    That's what I'm thinking. Speedometer error I can compensate for. Performance? The little 4 banger with an automatic is already just acceptable as far as power. I think I'll leave the OEM tires and wheels alone.

    Taller wheels/tires.

    I'm not planning to go with anything radical, just what the pre runner or factor 4x4 is wearing.the little 4 with a 4sp auto is pretty tame as it is. I don't know if this would cause any undue wear and tear, or how much of an effect on acceleration. I like the bit of extra ground clearance and a...

    Solar Panels

    I inherited a kit when my dad passed. I don't understand the numbers about what the kit will provide yet. From what I understand, it will pretty much run the house except AC, and furnace. The stove and hot water heater will put a good drain on it as well. Brother said I can expand on what I have...

    Taller wheels/tires.

    2011 Tacoma Access cab, 2.7 four cylinder,and automatic. Would a set of wheels and tires from a Tacoma 4x4 or prerunner hurt performance or otherwise tax the little engine or transmission?

    How has ownership of your truck been so far?

    Got my 2011 Tacoma a few months ago. I haven't done anything but maintenance and drive it. I do wish it had a standard transmission. The automatic on the little 4 leaves it underpowered. But it had about 65k on it, clean and tight as a new truck, at a real good price, I couldn't not buy it. Only...

    How has ownership of your truck been so far?

    Mine's a 2011 access cab with a 4 cyl and 4 speed automatic. Other than being a bit underpowered, I like the truck.

    2.7 Prerunner?

    What engine is in the Prerunner Tacoma? My 2011 access cab has a 2.7 four with a four speed automatic. I might want to do some Prerunner mods, but I'm not sure the lill 4 is up to taller wheels. With the air and cruise on it downshifts two gears an throws a hissy fit when I hit a hill unless I'm...

    Former Smokers Truck

    Get two bowls and fill them with white vinegar. Close the truck up and leave it alone for two or three days. Did this to get the stench out of my house.
