White smoke or vapor at startup?

My 2024 OR Tacoma when first started sends a white vapor or smoke out of the exhaust.
Last about 15 seconds or so.

is this normal?

Likely moisture/condensation in your exhaust pipes

I’d say normal

That's the problem of having the tail pipe on the drivers side. We see stuff we wouldn't normally see.

Totally normal to see some condensation get evaporated on startup.

It looks just like my wife's turbocharged late model German car. Some mornings with cooler weather arriving I've seen that. Nothing unusual when warmed up and no oil consumption standing out for the Tacoma or that car.

If someone thinks there's a definite problem, watch for unusual oil and fuel consumption.
