    Ruissimo’s Ownership Blog – The 2024 Toyota Tacoma Trailhunter

    I tucked the wires in. Super easy. As for BlackVue, I guess theyā€™re turning into the Toyota of dashcams; all the YouTube reviews are negative, the sky is falling, donā€™t buy one, itā€™s overpriced, etc etc. but the ones Iā€™ve owned have let me down exactly ZERO times in over a decade. They just...

    Anyone else having trouble with mpg rates?

    Iā€™ve been using Fuelly for my last 5 vehicles (over 12 years). Thatā€™s 936 fuel-ups. Highly recommend, and itā€™s super-easy to record it at the pump every time. Itā€™s part of the routine. As for my hybrid, Iā€™m having a hard time breaking 20.0. Currently at 19.9 for my first 1,000 miles, but as...

    My first Toyota in 30 years and I got a lemon - 2024 Tacoma [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    Whatā€™s to keep manufacturers or dealers from just declaring that parts are on back order for every single one of these potential lemon claims?

    From excited to feeling nervous about my Tacoma Limited order

    That Sienna is why I bought the Taco. We had the previous gen, and absolutely loved it. It was like a member of the family, similar to what you mentioned. The new one is miles better in every way (except maybe interior space, by a tiny margin) and once I sat in it, I knew my next vehicle would...

    Beat Sonic amp worth the price?

    My issue isnā€™t so much the front bias, itā€™s the fact that 90% of the sound appears to come out of the center channel, and the tweeters barely pump out the sound theyā€™re supposed to. Thereā€™s no depth. Iā€™d gladly trade the gimmicky JBL center speaker for a more balanced, non-removable system. Or...

    Beat Sonic amp worth the price?

    I need to look into an amp and maybe better speakers; Iā€™m disappointed in the JBLā€™s performance. I was finally able to play my FLAC and DVD-A files in the Taco, and it is significantly worse than my Genesis G70ā€™s Lexicon System. Maybe Iā€™ll give this a try.

    TOYOTA APP HELP

    I also get that annoying popup... there's gotta be a solution out there. Anyone?

    From excited to feeling nervous about my Tacoma Limited order

    That's because you're a reasonable person that grew up before the internet was around to give literally EVERYONE a chance to voice their idiotic opinions to the masses. I didn't need the 6-ft bed myself, and wanted to park my truck in the garage, but to each his own. And if I need to haul...

    Hybrid MPG -- 26.6mpg city driving!

    900 miles in, 20.0mpg exactly. Was hoping for better. It is very hilly where I live though. I did notice highway driving helps a ton, which Iā€™ve been avoiding during the break-in period. When I hit 1,000 miles, Iā€™m gonna start pushing her a little so the mpg isnā€™t likely to improve lol

    My Trailhunter finally arrived: Initial impressions, couple pics, planned build

    +1 on the snorkel. Itā€™s not bad with the driverā€™s side window down, but with passengerā€™s it is obnoxious. Iā€™ll be looking for a silencer soon.

    Bronze Oxide color

    Love this color. It really pops in the sun, but also changes depending on time of day and its surroundings! Itā€™s like a chameleon color. Sometimes bronze, sometimes brown, sometimes green, sometimes gray.

    From excited to feeling nervous about my Tacoma Limited order

    I would want to know situations like that that for a brand/model I own. @BronzoTaco, I'm sorry you had issues with your truck!

    Carista OBD2

    Itā€™s a bit slow to connect, but once youā€™re in settings, toggling between the menus is quick. I tried diagnostics and live data and kind of gave up due to a) the delay and b) I donā€™t need those things at the moment.
