    Turn off the quad steer for hauling? That's when its used best. You can turn on a dime even with a Trailer behind you. So dont turn it off ever if you ask me.

      Towing at low speeds a-okay. Personal experience after 20 years selling autos; it was an extremely rare case to take in a Quadrasteer that was working properly. People who I worked with and traded them where it stopped working say it stopped working with heavy loads in the bed when hauling. Just be extremely careful. If it goes out it can be very difficult and expensive to repair. GM only ran the Quadrasteer for a few years. Here’s a link to what other owners experience. www.silveradosierra.com/threads/quadrasteer.481266/

      @thehardknockstate thank you for info. My truck was owned by a little old lady who got dementia and had to sell it. It's a 02 and has 150thousand mls. And dont think its towed anything. The hitch is like new. I am planning to haul some decorative gravel for a patio area in my yard for grass replacement project. But maybe a yard at a time. That should be ok i think. But i will take it easy on the old brute and baby the short 2 miles (3.22 km) home from gravel ready mix to my house. Thanks for the tip.

      No more V6. 4 cyl turbos and available with a hybrid. The body isn’t that drastically different. Late model V6’s like your 23 are already starting raise in resale value. From what I can tell the consumer decision is divided on if the 4cyl turbo was the right move.

The underground color is hot, pairing it with red interior will look great. Great thing about the wheels is if you do get tired of the factory black and chrome wheels, they’re easy relatively inexpensive to change out.

    Make sure that you have the Overland Torque Tune downloaded into your Tacoma’s computer so that your transmission will Stop “hunting” for the right gear. The OTT also causes the torque to come on at 2K RPM instead of the 3,600 RPM. The OTT also increases your horsepower from 278 to 302, while allowing you to get 1-2 mpg BETTER fuel economy . The OTT costs about $500 and Won’t hurt your warranty.

    We use our Tacoma for work around our property and play, so a 6’ bed was a necessity. There’s a LOT of 5’ beds out there, but have you ever tried to sleep in a 5’ bed while camping? Furthermore I can haul more stuff in a long bed without anything above the cab. I wanted either White, Barcelona Red or Lunar Rock. I got my #1 choice of White.

    In 23 I heard that Toyota was dropping the 3.5L Naturally Aspirated V6 and replacing it with a 2.4L Turbo. By the time I found out about the changes, it was too late in the year to order one. I was looking in Washington, Idaho, Montana and Oregon. I finally found mine on 2/29/24. It was our local dealerships Owners pickup with only 6K miles. I was very particular on what I wanted and needed. Other than the Black factory Leather interior, my TRD was exactly what I wanted. It’s White, TRD Off Road, double cab, 6’ bed with the Premium and Technology pkgs. I reached out to Katzkin and they made me Burgundy Leather seat covers for my truck. After Katzkin removed my Black Leather seat covers and installed the Burgundy Leather, Katzkin removed the Grey cloth seat covers from my friends 23 TRD and installed my Black Leather into his Lunar Rock TRD. Historically a Turbo engine simply doesn’t last as long as a N/A engine. Now that the redesigned 24 is out, the prices have skyrocketed. When I bought my 23, according to Kelly Blue Book my truck was worth $51,848. (I paid $48K and that included a Tri-Fold tonneau cover and running boards). To replace my 23 with a new 24, it would cost over $55K. The MSRP on my truck when it was new was $49,292. So my truck went UP in value, yet I saved almost $4K. I’m retired and drive about 6-7K miles per year and we generally keep our vehicles for 15-20 years or 300K miles. I’ll probably be dead in 20 years, but even if I live beyond that, in 20 years my Tacoma will have less than 150K miles.

    I got the Highlander Limited gas 2.5 T 3 weeks ago. Traded in my 2021 low mileage Venza. Wanted a larger car. Hybrid made no sense for me. Low mileage driver, higher initial cost. The MSRP was $ 51,008, included destination and shipping. Paid $ 47, 348. No dealer add on options, but a few port add ons. The mats cost the same as Weather tech, about 350, for complete coverage including cargo area. I like them better. Had Weather Tech in the past. Door guards, about $ 150. Special paint, white pearl, $ 450, top rails and crossbars, $ 450. I would not have spent money for crossbars, but they make it easier to find my car in the Costco parking lot. The hybrid would have cost about $ 5000 more. No discount, higher base price. The Limited is very quiet, and after shutting off start stop, no lag turning right after a full stop.

      Just watched your video for the second time. Picked up very useful added information. This. Is an excellent video of the basics. You should have more subscribers. After a month, it just rides so much better than my Venza Limited did. Probably the 8 speed transmission. My Limited is also very quiet. Don’t understand bloggers commenting on a noisy engine. I would have liked the Platinum, which was in stock. Gorgeous interior but I didn’t want to deal with the panoramic sunroof. Too many reports of cracks or exploding sunroofs. People reported the repair is $ 11,000. Also, I’m guessing the shade won’t keep water out if the sunroof explodes while driving in the rain. Bye bye headliner.
