Nice pics. I love taking my new Taco out on 4x trails. I don’t have much experience with off roading but so far the stock TRD OR has impressed me. Recently, I used the crawl control on large river rocks with steep inclines and the truck kicked ass. What brand of tire are you using?
I have a big ass dent on the side of my truck bed. The auto body shop wants $1800 for the repair and they can’t find the TRD off road sticker replacement. Today, I found a scratch on my headlight and side mirror from rocks and branches. I would be more upset if I only used the truck as a person...

Thanks for the write up. I’m picking up my trailer this week and will probably drive it home 40 miles without trailer brakes. I hope the 7 pin connector on the taco at least has brakes lights connected for the drive home. I will start on this asap.
I have the same truck as you with the heated seats and lg screen but no brake controller. What redarc model did you order and can you explain how/where you wired the controller? Is it powered behind the rear passenger seat? How did you run the wire to the control knob in the dash?
This is my first taco so I have nothing to compare too except my 2006 f150. So far, I love the torque, interior and adaptive cruise. Still waiting to take it off road. I’m very interested in the trailer brake controller issues. My off road didn’t come with the controller and I eventually want a...
