None of us can really know the long-term reliability yet but the engine and platform are also families not totally new or first up now. This weekend was another one telling for how good the new powertrain works and also how bad a headwind and fast freeway traffic are for fuel economy. Mine is...

You have the Sienna which is funny to me. We traded ours and it was in part sparking the long bed requirement. I ended taking over our prior gen SE, and my wife an AWD wagon with manual transmission. My pickup will not fit in our garage. So far it has been good as I move from my career into...

I'm lucky so far and problems posted with the data given mostly look similar or same as some of our 5 total Toyotas also being new generation or revisions. One of those did have a drivetrain problem with dropping transmission a few times made worse by a TSB not out yet and then dealer daft for...

A Sport wheel size is plenty fine for how many only go off road occasionally, same for not having a locker, and the wheel size might be preferable if you want road manners from the tires less bouncy. I was not a fan of fake hood scoops but thought trying them was nice. My choice of OR and long...

I made this early review of my Fas-Top purchase where of course you can get one for a shortie too. The point for a long bed is it gives me coverage and space I had with my van, versatility and there might be others with demands like mine. It is super helpful for the wide range of duties my...

It was 11 years ago already but for a while my firm did some projects for home and auto glass firm and from that I learned the failures do occur. My work was IT and building infrastructure related but the repairs would be in the shop, and the customer service area with phone operators would have...

Fas-Top that makes the all in one or combo tonneau with soft topper has their JayBar rack system compatible with it. Visit their site to see the rack I don't have. They sell a tonneau or topper only too. Know the soft topper is quick release - a cotter pin on each side. In a review here I posted...

Maybe options or packages make a difference but my TRD OR lights up inside when you're near and I've suspected that matter of engine management or thermal management in newer vehicles. My wife's German car makes noises long after it's shut down.

This has me guessing some not really reading that sticker on the dash or other warnings on tracking. I've made posts on my troubleshooting the Bluetooth and firmware here or both here and TacomaWorld. My trials are same methodology I supervise as an IT director deploying and troubleshooting...

Our Sienna traded for the Tacoma was similarly quick to give you the impression of an empty tank, and I never knew or pursued the actual reserve like I found here. It had a much bigger range and I'd fill it up to satisfy the fear of running out with the family but do remember a nervous time when...

For perspective..... I did a lot of testing just for how long it took to get a TRD OR long bed in my region and other possible purchase choices. Our company fleet has Ford, Stellantis, GM and Rivian light truck or van categories so hands on familiarity there. Now with 2000+ miles on the 2024 TRD...

That is an important point. Even when Toyota had a mechanical lever vs turning the knob one could have the engagement or disengage be stuck. When my 4Runner was 12+ years old it could require a bumpy road if I did not do that often.

I'm leaning towards 5000 miles because of my use patterns and having some build and bugs issues addressed. My use is metro and off road for work oriented driving or hauling trips about 200 miles away where one's best to keep up with fast traffic.

This past weekend I spent to and from our cabin in the back seat of the '24 TRD OR. Coming home was better behind my 5'6" daughter driving. It was not quite as bad as I expected but not great. A regional airline or discount flight came to mind. This has been in mind because the Sienna SE now...

We're still happy and liking the versatility. It might not be for everyone but sure suits my needs. I have all of an open bed and topper for the diversity of situations I have. It's too new to judge durability but the all of it is made like truck, ag and marine tarps and covers. I have taken...

This is the share link from Amazon. One side short fleece and the other waterproof. I don't keep them on all the time and just if I'm full of dirt or sweat. They might not be for everyone but we like them. DREAMANIA Waterproof Seat Cover...

I don't ever idle when not needed and watch the engine oil and transmissions temperature before hard acceleration. From long ago semi driving and occasional heavy equipment operating I do follow the owner's manual instructions for idle down in a fast transition from working hard to shut down.

Mine got got to upper midwest dealer in a few days arriving July 17. It should have 2000 miles today. With a proper break in I've had no problems. What some describe as hard shifts to me seem like other modern 8-10 speed transmissions I've tried. I drive in ECO mode often and the middle setting...

From noticing the SRS on seats I got these air bag compatible covers we're very happy with. They're definitely nicer than neoprene and bulkier stuff. Just popping the top over the head rests is sufficient for when I use them. Easy to remove also means easy to clean. For rear I have a simple...

I'm quite certain that section on current Tacoma issues where they touched on the grill shutter and transmissions and I thought it was about the automatic but maybe that was the manual transmission. They also covered the challenges when the problems are one off or a few. It will be hard for me...
