Sounds like your going for the smarter long term financial plan. If you KNOW you will keep the truck just buy it. If you lease then buyout the lease you could have paid for the same truck 2.5X. Patience is a virtue and I’m sure you will be rewarded with some attractive deals on 2019s in 6...

Torrie is the man when it comes to EcoBoost tuning

But how long does your motor last running high ethanol fuel? How much extra maintenance is required? I’ll burn alcohol in a weekend only/track vehicle but not for my DD

20% matches rear glass perfect, I tint every vehicle I own 20% fronts and 50% entire windshield. This is 100% illegal but I’ve never been hassled over it.

Corn is for eatin and drinkin, not fuel

Nice lookin sport, I’m planning to leave my stickers on until they get damaged then I’ll peel me off and maybe do some sort of vinyl graphic

Totally agree, especially if you tint your fronts like I did. Still looks good though with the contrast between windows

Confirmed stock governor is set for 110 MPH in drive

You don’t need Lariat for adaptive cruise control, I got it on my XLT

11K miles and zero regrets:like:

Bed the brakes, not bleed the brakes. Bedding in your brakes involves several harsh stops, to the point that you can smell your brakes

As gnarly as it would look with the big spikes, I feel like you’d be asking to get pulled over with them on. Probably open yourself up to litigation as well if someone were to brush their leg on it, have their dog poke it’s eye out etc. I’d stick with a smooth acorn nut w/red loc-tite on the...

This is what I was driving towards in trying to figure out if there was a change after cover was installed. I put one on my full-size GMC years back and noticed my mileage tanked right after

I’m planning on a lot of engine mods in the future so I’m just feeding it a diet of what it will ultimately end up needing

Did you notice any difference after installing tonneau?

These trucks definitely prefer higher octane fuel, I have been running 93 octane the past 6k+ miles and have noticed huge improvements in both economy and drive ability. No tune just yet but the higher octane did correct the low end hesitation and shutter at idle for me

So back on to owning Tacoma’s previously... I only owned 1 about 10-15 years ago, it was a ‘99 PreRunner Single Cab 2.7 Auto. I had mixed opinions of the truck, on the plus side it had good power (for a 4cyl at the time) good mileage and I never got is stuck despite only being 2wd. However it...

Regardless of how you slice it we can all probably agree that the MPG on these trucks is all up to how you drive it as an individual. If you put on a ton of city miles, drive aggressively, disable auto start/stop, idle a lot, use cheap fuel, etc you are going to get poor MPG. Whereas if you...

New Ranger eats Tacoma’s for breakfast and s***** Colorado’s in the afternoon. But in all seriousness the Ranger is much more comfortable than a Toyota in all aspects from ride quality to seat comfort. And you can’t beat Fords contoured steering wheels

What feels bouncy on the road will absorb hits better off-road. Toyota suspensions are stiff no matter what package you get. The FX4 shocks will perform well off-road and not have a tendency to break components the way a stiffer suspension would. You want a stiff suspension for paved road...
