Mexico is a major hub of automotive production in the western hemisphere, built up over the last 3 decades from the result of free trade policy and globalization. Ford, Chevy, Toyota, VW, Mazda, Nissan, Audi all have huge plants in Mexico. Much of the material and parts come from Canada. 80%...
I ordered the TrailHunter grille (53101-AK070) before my truck arrived. It's got the bronze lettered TOYOTA and flat black plastic and below that a place for a 20 inch lightbar. I don't know where to get an OEM lightbar you can order separately, and I wasn't ready to spend hundreds of dollars...
Well shoot if anyone around Portland has the thing and wants something from my beer cellar or something I’ll graciously come meet at your convenience! PM me

Something I’ve wondered, if I ever meet up with someone with a Carista could they just plug in to my truck and turn off the seat belt chimes for me one time and I could be on my way? Or is the app locked to a single VIN?

Toyota has their factory option Dashcam in all their vehicles and the Tacoma can come with the latest iteration too, part number PT949-34222. I think this one is called the 2.0 version:
It comes with an industrial rated 16GB MicroSD card. Those are step above cheaper SD cards, in that they...
Cool post, I did this mod too and wanted to add a picture of how the OEM axle dump has a recess in the flange to accommodate the metal gasket ring part. I thought I read how at least some of the custom fabbed pieces don’t have this…
