There is a vibe at Lambeau field on Gameday unlike any other stadium in any sport that I've been to. Times Square on a Saturday night comes close.
When I ordered my 2016 Taco I did the same thing. I joined TW back in August of 2015 and while I've been on many forums I wasn't prepared for this one. It's like the Reddit of car forums and anyone who talks agains them is instantly outed and ridiculed. By the time I took possession of it there were already several people complaining about the engine & transmission and how bad it was and how little power it had especially down low. There was on guy who said "that's because you don't know how to drive it. You have to drive it at 4,000 rpms because that's where the power is made".When I was thinking of buying a Tacoma, I joined Tacoma World to get some first hand experience.
I was totally unprepared for the type of experience I would get.
I have never encountered a site with more White Knights.
If ANYONE mentioned a problem or issue, it was immediately swooped on by users claiming it was obviously the driver's fault.
The issue that sticks in my head from there was when a user had their rear axle lock up on the highway while driving home.
The White Knights rallied from their keep and called him liar, troll, and every other name in the book.
They demanded pics and GPS coordinates of where it happened, a Police report, an oath in blood, you name it.
The user got ticked and left.
Not 3 weeks later, Toyota issued a recall for the rear axles on the Off Road trim Tacomas because they could leak to the point that they could, gasp, lock up while driving.
It warmed a bit of my soul when a TON of the White Knights inspected their trucks only to find the leaking rear axle.
But hey, Tacomas are without fault.
Oh wait, 2024 rear axle...
Yeah, I'm going to drive around the city in second gear at 4K to compensate for this 
ty design! I've been on some bad forums but that was the worst, well besides Reddit! 
Anyone who would brave some of those cold days at Lambeau are a special kind of crazy! lolThere is a vibe at Lambeau field on Gameday unlike any other stadium in any sport that I've been to. Times Square on a Saturday night comes close.
Wisconsin is the home of the Green Bay Packers, Harley Davidson, Royal Enfield US, Johnson's Wax, and former home of AMC and Duncan Yoyos.
I rarely block anyone on forums, but I had to block several on there.When I ordered my 2016 Taco I did the same thing.

I was mostly a lurker on there
. I think I might have had 10-12 posts if that and just couldn't stand the place. When I was back in MA we had a local gun forum similar to TC. If someone (usually a newbie) asked a dumb (to them) question you'd have 5 guys jumping down their back then all hell would brake loose. The moderators on those 2 forums were terrible and because of that it chased off some good members like myself.
You will also remember how staunchly they defended the rear drum brakes due to them being SOOO much better for off road....
I remember someone on here posting a comment from TW when the Ranger first came back about how dumb it was putting a turbo in a 4cyl and they were all laughing about it. Now the gen 4 Taco is a turbo 4cyl.
I do remember that ! But, but rocks can't get stuck in the rear drums like they do in the disc brakes.
Based on their logic, I kept waiting for all the soon to be coming third party aftermarket kits to convert disc brakes into far superior drum brakes.I do remember that ! But, but rocks can't get stuck in the rear drums like they do in the disc brakes.
While true most of those guys were mall crawlers and parking lot princesses.
Taco fan boyz are honestly one of the many reasons that I would never buy one of the things.When I was thinking of buying a Tacoma, I joined Tacoma World to get some first hand experience.

But for Toyota it was a spectacular idea! Because, well “Toyota.”Now the gen 4 Taco is a turbo 4cyl.
Is there not an aftermarket module available to disable ASS?
