    Doug DeMuro posted in his video that it translates to "Accessory Relays".. fuses and relays . Morse code. Not braille. I doubt Toyota wants visually impaired people driving Tacomas..

    Love to know the cost of this truck with all mods you see right there. Would have to be close to $65K

      Bet even higher, bare truck is likely 60-65k. Then accessories $10k, dealer markup, be that sticker is likely $80k plus sitting on the lot.

      You’re in luck, we own a new Tacoma for long term testing. Check it out! Short answer, with the sunroof, I do not fit well. Without the sunroof, I fit very well. I hope that helps 🤟

    Unless you want to switch to 17" wheels, just stick a 285 70 or 295 70 tire on here. Small enough to fit but much improved size.

      Idk it depends. I don't know much about the ranger but I'm looking at the trailhunter long bed and planning on thowing a camper on it. So that's like 1000 lbs permanently living on the bed. Before the trailhunter got announced people would get the off road and spend like $10,000 on upgrades anyways. So if I don't have to worry about payload and suspensions on the trailhunter then that seems pretty good to me.

      Not powered up in that it contains no 12v source because it's a trade show. The vehicle doesn't have to be "running" to take the tailgate down, however

    No … answering the question in the title. The Colorado ZR2 is more capable as equipped. Simply being objective, but you’ll get a lot of bias & Toyota fanboys trotting out old stereotypes about reliability that have no relevance for modern vehicles.

      ​@@paulm6481 You're being a bit disengenuous when you say the "same old 8-speed". Chevy did quite a bit to distance itself from the last version, including new internals. Although they could have gone with their 10spd, they didn't (guessing it's based on the new motor). I'd say it's a bit of a wait and see really.
      There aren't really many other weak spots on the new ZR2.

      It's funny you say that but i guess you say the Tacoma is more reliable because yall just keep em as mall crawlers lol. I've not seem a single Tacoma out there on the trails or mud pits. Oh and the fact that they have been close to the bottom as offroad capabilites. If your gonna run your mouth atleast back it up with facts not here say . I bet once you take that Tacoma off road it'll break down lol.
