Vantrue has a 4-channel unit, the Nexus 5 (presumably the version before you get the full Roy Batty Nexus 6 Model from Blade Runner that would address all your security concerns 😁) However, the two extra channels are built into the front and rear cameras so the best you're going to get is seeing...
Very nice looking truck. If you don't mind, what is the overall height, excluding/including the camper roof bars as it stands?
I'm considering what my options might be in order to fit a truck with camper into a garage with a 7 foot high entry. I guess sticking with standard diameter tires and...
Seems worth confirming if that is the only option in Florida, because a quick search suggests 15 days in shop is all that's required to start the process and 30 days for a purchase price refund or a replacement vehicle per this site -...
Just speculation, but from Toyota's inventory tool it looks like Tacoma hybrid models including Trailhunter are losing out to Land Cruiser in terms of part allocations, given the apparently higher numbers of the latter in transit? Perhaps why you early adopters are having to wait?
The LC is...
One thing we will need to check for in an application like yours is that the TH exhaust dumping under the vehicle doesn't find its way into the bed/camper at night when the generator turns on.
Other than that, you're describing pretty much my plans, chosen for similar reasons. Although I don't...
We probably shouldn't underestimate dealers' ability to find things to add, in this case a ball mount, bedliner, cables and two years of services apparently ... and when they run out of ideas, or lack creativity, well then they can just add a giant ADM.
I give you Toyota Roseville's $80k...
Topo Toppers' Mesa is another wedge option if you haven't come across them before. Different design/build philosophy to GFC and Lone Peak. Nice to have low entry price options.
Additional thoughts
The TH comes with frame mounted rock rails while the Pro has body mounted rocker protection
The TH also offers a 6 foot bed option to give more room for your ATV plus other stuff, but at the penalty of longer wheelbase/worse breakover
There seems to be some confusion over...
Thanks. I was going off the spec comparison on the website that still shows the moonroof for the Pro and the TH and as an option for the OR. I'll assume you're correct but one has to wonder what is so challenging for Toyota to be accurate on its website and what else may be incorrect. In any...
I mean significant margin in the context of Tacomas versus the margins on the rest of Toyota's product range, where they face much greater competitive pressures. Their halo trucks just expand those margins because that's the goal of a manufacturer with its top tier trims.
I don't know what...
Thanks for the feedback. Good to hear about the possibility of the camera/rearview mirror extension kit so I could at least make use of it, even if not something I'd bother with buying otherwise.
IIRC the TFL Taco has a manual tailgate. The potential issue I am thinking of is when there is a...
I wouldn't have so much of an issue with the price point for a Trailhunter (even though I'm sure its inflated) if I wanted everything included in the price ... but I don't. I'm probably looking at ~$5k or more, i.e. getting on for 10% of the price, for stuff I have no interest in. Could I live...
I suspect Toyota plans to produce a lot of the halo Tacomas, along with 4Runners and Land Cruisers that share the platform.
My reasoning goes as follows - There seems to be significant margin built into the new Tacoma pricing, especially on the halos. Toyota seems likely to use those margins...
I'd keep the snorkel since I want to overland and keeping dust out is good. However, I also want to add a wedge camper and that needs the roof rack and bed rack removed. Starting from the OR remains an option though and the suspension may be enough for what I'll want to do.
He's making that comment in the context of the TRD Off Road variant because we're in a thread on that topic. The Toyota website shows both SR and SR supporting XtraCab with 6-ft bed. Scroll to the bottom of this page to confirm https://www.toyota.com/upcoming-vehicles/tacoma/
As a reminder, what we are commenting on is feedback that Toyota may be considering an OR 2-door, so not something that is likely to have been documented publicly. My comment outlined why they may be doing so.
A week ago you speculated, based on the language you used that -
Today you're saying...
I'd like to see a source for that as I watched most of those videos and didn't hear it asked or discussed. There was speculation at the time that it would be the same as the Tundra which apparently does operate that way. However, the Tundra may not be the best indication of what is implemented...
