  1. iForce Max Creeping forward after stopping

    Hybrid owner here as well. I’ve noticed this when coming to a very slow stop. It will gently stop, then start creeping forward a little unless you apply more brake. I just assumed to had to do with how it manages regenerative braking coupled with the normal brakes. So, when you ā€œstopā€...
  2. SR Tacoma Front Camera Install

    I’ve been wondering this myself. I’ve got a Sport and wouldn’t mind having a front facing camera.
  3. Quieting the RAI (Snorkel) Sound

    Has anyone tried replacing the scoop at the top of the intake with a cyclone filter cap or something like that? I don’t have the snorkel on my Tacoma, but I was thinking of having one installed at some point down the line. I wonder if that would make any difference with the sound.
  4. Hybrid Sport šŸ¤”

    There are at least a few folks here on the forums who have a Hybrid Sport, self included. I can tell you that mine was originally a custom order for one of the employees at the dealership, but they bought a different colored one that came in first, so it went up for sale on the lot. It was the...
  5. 26.4 MPG

    I’ve got a stock TRD Sport Hybrid, and 24-26 seems pretty normal for most of my driving and commuting. I’ve been able to baby it up to 29.5 driving from the tip to tail of Delaware, but it is an exceptionally flat state. Up in the mountains in PA it tends to range from 17 to the low 20s, unladen.
  6. System Malfunction - Trailhunter 5' Hybrid iForceMax - Bad Battery Cell?

    It looks like they had to jump it, then tested it, found the battery to not meet spec, and replaced it.
  7. Steering Wheel and seat heating with remote start?

    So far I’ve also only had them work on remote start when I’ve left them on before shutting the truck down. Except for one chilly morning last week where I could have sworn I didn’t leave them on. My old jeep would do it automatically at 40 degrees or lower. Gonna keep an eye on this
  8. Shudder coming to stop - transmission death or normal?

    Hybrid owner here. I’m not sure if this is what you’re feeling, but when slowly coming to a stop, usually right before I actually stop, I can feel it downshift through second, then first. Subtle but noticeable under the right conditions, and in-line with some other autos I’ve driven. No...
  9. Remote start from FOB

    Tried it this morning and it works! Two quick presses and a long hold. Thanks n118nw for sharing this. I scoured every manual my truck came with and couldn’t find this feature mentioned anywhere.
  10. Remote start from FOB

    I haven’t yet tried remote start from the fob; I just assumed it didn't have that feature. Definitely need to try it out, but I can confirm what others have likely noticed: the fob seems to have pretty short range. With both my old jeeps, I could lock and unlock them from inside my house and...
  11. TrailHunter water crossings / water fording?

    I’d be reasonably confident in the Trailhunter’s fording ability. I’ve got a TRD Sport with the iForcemax hybrid system, and I’ve taken it through probably about a foot of water on a river crossing I make every so often. So far no issues at all. Even with the giant air dam on the front šŸ˜‚
